Dona Filipa Hotel

This is a lovely hotel in a great location. All the staff were super professional and friendly. We stayed in a premium room which was spacious, comfortable and clean. We had a mini bar fridge and coffee machine. Lovely golf and sea view. Breakfast was delicious, very fresh and eggs cooked to order by the delightful chef. We ate lunch at the pool bar and everything was tasty. The pool area is lovely and relaxing. The pictures don't do it justice. The hotel has reserved beds on the beach and serve snacks which was fantastic. Bar staff at night for an evening drink were so friendly and professional. The only observation is that parts of the exterior are very shabby. They appear to be upgrading in stages. This is a shame and takes away from the hotel. However everything else was relaxing and enjoyable and we are planning to return next year.

The hotel is in a great location with excellent facilities. There is a lovely pool area and the staff are excellent. It’s right beside the beach where there is an area set up for the hotel. Some of the rooms need updated and are not 5*. We had booked a Classic room with a land view. The view was overlooking the air conditioning units and the bar. We requested a move and got a room overlooking the golf course. It was still a Classic room and although very comfortable, the bathroom had a shower curtain and a shower head that fell down! The price is as you would expect in high season but the Classic rooms need upgrading.
