We stayed here for a long weekend in July and really enjoyed everything the hotel had to offer.
We stayed in a supreme lake view room, at the end of the complex, it was above the kids playground, however we were on the 2nd floor and this was not an issue for us. The room was spacious, very clean, with a modern excellent bathroom area which included a bathtub and walk in shower, and the room had separate toilet and a lovely very big comfortable bed, all topped off with a balcony to relax on and enjoy the stunning hotel scenery.
We were bed and breakfast, enjoying the excellent variety offered and tasty food available at breakfast, complimented by good service and lots of tables which meant we didn’t have to wait for a table on any morning despite the hotel being busy.
We enjoyed a nice lunch at the Estrella pool bar, good service, great views and the DJ offered an excellent chilled vibe.
The adults pool area is very good, excellent relaxing area, and whilst the pool is deep enough to cool down, it can be a little tricky to get into with steep sides.
Whilst we were at the adult pool, Ricardo was working in the tuck shop, he was extremely attentive, continually making sure we didn’t need anything and really friendly too, a real asset to the team who stuck our for us for his excellent service.
The walk into the Marina is only 5 mins, so the location of the hotel is also in an excellent position too.
We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel, we would definitely come back and definitely recommend a visit too.
Had a lovely 9 days at the Domes lake. A spacious five star hotel with extensive grounds, superb facilities and situated perfectly, half way between the marina and the beach.
I loved this hotel , It was grand and very clean.
Its location was great—just 25 minutes from the airport and right next to the marina.
The breakfast was so good, with lots of variety, and the service was excellent.
The room was 10/10—modern, stylish, and the bed was so comfortable. The rooms were cleaned to a different standard and smelled amazing. We also had a great view.
The staff were lovely.
But the pool areas stole the show! Wow!
We had an absolutely delightful stay at this resort. It had everything you could want—from beautiful beaches and stunning pools to lush natural surroundings, delicious restaurants, complimentary yoga, and so much more. The breakfast buffet was outstanding and the perfect way to start each day. The dinners were delicious - we had probably the best sushi we've ever eaten at the onsite Blend restaurant, where the scenery was perfect and the service was top notch. We also enjoyed an outdoor dinner at Antonino's, where we were serenaded with live music and wonderful service.
We treated ourselves to the spa, and the services were excellent. The entire property felt luxurious, serene, and beautifully maintained, making it the perfect backdrop for a truly relaxing vacation.
This hotel is lovely, and within walking distance of Vilamoura marina where there are bars/shops/boat trips etc.
Room - good size, large comfortable bed, plenty of storage, good shower and very clean.
Food - we ate at 2 of the restaurants and both were very good. Breakfast was nice, with a good selection. The outside tables are nicer as it’s quite dark and noisy if you end up on a table inside next to the food service area.
Pools - nice temperature, although more suited to gently floating around rather than gentle swimming. Loungers are very comfortable, and shade is available. Never had an issue getting a lounger despite the hotel being busy.
A couple of very small things, but things which should be fixed - I noticed a couple of cracked floor tiles in the outside area, the side table next to our lounger was very wobbly/broken and a teapot had a crack in one morning.
All in all, a lovely stay and I’d happily return.
