Room with a view
Arrived early on 8 August. Room not ready which was expected and luggage stored and staff said they would call when room was ready.3:30 pm still no call go to reception and they say they had called but I showed them my call log no missed calls. Gave me room 305, go to the room which was fine till you open the curtains and see the view which is the roof of building at balcony height covered in seagull droppings. Pointed this out to staff member and asked him to inform reception. No contact so on my way out for the evening pointed out to staff they said they would send maintenace and call. Had a call which I missed so called back staff member said the lady dealing with it was checking someone in end she would call me. No call. On way back in evening spoke to staff member who confirmed maintenance had been but nothing could be done. She could not move me to another room unless I paid 100 euros per night extra, 4 days into the holiday nothing has been done meaning have no use of my balcony that I paid as where is the enjoyment sitting looking at bird droppings .
Best Massage Ever with Paula
I had the best massage ever with Paula, she was so nice and took a very good care of me. I’ve done the reflexology and i would definitely recommend it !! Many Thanks
Fabulous hotel!
The hotel is located just along from the harbour area of Vilamoura and very close to the beach. The hotel is outstanding in all areas. It is kept spotlessly clean and our room was perfect. Breakfast was included in our stay and you could not have wished for a greater choice.

Second time as good as the first?
This was a return visit to the Crowne Plaza, after a couples visit in 2025. Sometimes returning to a hotel proves disappointing but not in this case.
The hotel continues to be well run. It's exceptionally clean throughout. The bedrooms are spacious and well serviced by the housekeeping staff. The menus are excellent and although we were on a bed and breakfast tariff, we frequently ate lunch on site and had dinner towards the end of our stay. The latter proved to be excellent.
The general ambience was good but as a grumpy old man, there were too many children/teenagers for my liking. Although we booked the same week as in 2025, perhaps schools finished earlier this year.
Drinks costs were similar to those around the marina itself. However, the poolside bar disappointed once again. Service at your sun bed was non-existent across the week. If you wanted a drink, you simply had to go to the bar itself. Perhaps after the imminent rebrand, this may change going forward.
The only other gripe was that I made the mistake of booking our rooms on the Quarteira side this year. If you're in a room from X01 to X07 (where X is the floor number), you have a great view of the breakfast restaurant roof complete with large quantities of what comes out the back end of seagulls, of which there are many! You also have a great view of various building sites, complete with eight cranes.
Overall, a thoroughly good break. We may return.
