"My experience at Portobay BlueOcean was truly amazing. Absolutely do recommend this hotel. So clean, they did an amazing job with the renovations and the look of the lounge and other facilities in the hotel. Gives a chic but modern tropical vibe in the hotel. The hotel itself was very clean, the staff is also amazing. They’re always on top of everything and making sure things smell clean and that everything is clean around the grounds and even service at buffet, etc. Walk to the beach is not too bad at all as you can access the walkway to the other hotel PortoBay Falesia and take the stairs to the beach. Food was nothing exceptional but was actually pretty good for a hotel. This is a 4 star but it’s definitely a very good 4 star hotel. Perhaps my only complaints or thing i would say the hotel could improve on was making the grounds a little bit more lively. I know that’s maybe not the vibe they’re going for as it seems more of a hotel to relax and for more retired people and families with kids but just seems like there could’ve been more activities or music or performances that could’ve been done for entertainment.

"Beautiful resort with a very calming vibe. It’s very big but never felt like there were lots of people around or overcrowded. Staff are very friendly & helpful. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Large variety of options at breakfast. The only issue we faced is that it’s quite far away from anything, the nearest shop for amenities is a 25 minute walk away, and you need to get taxis everywhere as there isn’t anything in walking distance or any local transport options, although the resort offers free drop off/pick up at the Marina 3 times per day. Would highly recommend for a relaxing and luxurious break. "

"We had an excellent stay while on vacation in Carvoeiro. The location is perfect for walking to everything in town. The hotel is newly renovated in tasteful neutrals. Our room was comfortable with a lovely queen size bed and a/c and the beautiful pool was part of our daily routine. Outdoor seating area on the patio near the bar was perfect for evenings chatting with family and playing cards. Breakfast buffet was great, with many options. All the staff were welcoming and nice. Highly recommended!"

"Perfect place for family three nights away with teenagers.We spent most of the days at the pool by the Casa Azul, lovely breeze, never busy, and handy snack bar for drinks and food right there. Its a little hilly so prob not the best for anyone with mobility issues. Ate breakfast both mornings at the Alfarroba restaurant. (Tip: ordering off the a la carte menu is better value than the buffet but that nay have been because we got the buffet one day as it seemed to be finishing up). Mini market on the site stocks anything you need. Kids played mini golf one evening. The resort is not really walking distance to anything in the heat…maybe had it been cooler and we were there longer, we would have attempted to walk to old town. Ubers were about 6-8 euro into the old town or the strip and were easy enough to get- no waiting. We booked a three bed apartment that was in great condition but had slight sign of wear and tear, mainly with the light in the bathroom not staying on and one plug socket that had come away from the wall. Apartment had everything you could possibly need (washer, ironing board, good kitchen with dishwasher). Bathrooms seemed pretty new and shower had great water pressure. It was advertised as having one bathroom but when we got there, there were two which was a pleasant surprise with 5 people! Tip 2: We ordered groceries and food via Uber eats since it was late when we got there. Overall I was delighted with our time here and the facilities- perfect for us! "

"We loved our stay at this hotel, will recommend 100%"

"We recently had the pleasure of staying at the newly opened Viceroy Ombria Algarve, and it exceeded our expectations in nearly every way. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome—genuinely friendly, attentive, and always eager to help without being intrusive. The architecture is truly a standout feature: modern yet rooted in the local aesthetic, with beautiful design touches throughout that made the entire property feel luxurious and unique. The pools were absolutely incredible—serene, well-designed, and perfect for relaxing under the Algarve sun. The entire hotel is spotlessly clean, and every space feels modern and updated, clearly reflecting the care that went into its recent opening. We also spent some time at the spa, which was nothing short of perfection. From the ambiance to the quality of treatments, it was a top-tier wellness experience. The on-site restaurants were also excellent. Each meal we had was flavorful and beautifully presented, with a variety of options that catered to both local and international palates. One important note for future guests: the hotel is located in the countryside, so it’s a good 30–45 minutes by car to the coastal Algarve towns and beaches. A rental car is definitely recommended if you plan to explore beyond the resort. That said, we actually appreciated being away from the busy tourist areas—it made for peaceful evenings and a more authentic connection to the region. We used the hotel as a relaxing base for day t"
