"Pine Cliffs Gardens is a beautiful property. The grounds, gardens, beach and accommodations are lovely, and the resort itself has so much potential. Unfortunately, the restaurant experience was deplorable. The food was consistently poor, the service was unacceptable, and the prices were outrageous for the quality provided. We are happy to pay premium prices when the food and service justify it, but that simply wasn’t the case here. For a resort positioning itself at this level, the restaurants...

"We originally booked a studio, but were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a two-bedroom apartment. It was very spacious and well maintained. The interior is a little dated in places, but everything was clean and tidy, so this didn’t bother us at all. The beds and bedding were excellent, and the bathroom was great with a good shower. The kitchen is quite basic, but that wasn’t an issue for us. Breakfast is small-scale but well presented, with everything you need. We also enjoyed relaxing...

"Wonderful 2nd dtsy"

"The rooms had their own car park but required a deposit in cash to obtain the remote for the gate. I don’t carry cash so was forced to haul my suitcase up and down multiple stairways and along a dark and uneven path around the back of the building to get to my room late at night. The room itself was fine. Clean and spacious although the bathroom smelled mouldy. Lighting was poor - particularly in the bathroom. Overall it was fine but nothing special."

"Propre! Calme! Accueillant!"

"There was a huge ant infestation in the living room and some ants were found in one of the bedrooms and the water was leaking behind the sink. Horrible experience. They wouldn’t give us a different room when requested. And they are not responding to us regarding a refund."

"Overall, a very good hotel/resort. The challenge is that it's layout is over a very large property. Finding your way around is a mystery and walking to your room, with the luggage, from the reception is very difficult ... but they arranged for a van to take us. Using Uber at night, the driver couldn't find our villa."

"The photos are misleading. Says there are 6 pools , a number of amenities which is all true however many of the condos are owned. The condo we were placed in was at the extreme end of the resort. This was not walkable for me so I was not able to enjoy the things that were there. The condo we got was spacious. Beds very hard so uncomfortable/difficult to sleep. Not nice bedding/blankets provided had a smell and scratchy/rough. Was going to use them to lie on top of to try to soften the bed but...

"Good place to stay: a lot of pools and beach is nearby. The property has microwave and oven, so we could cook for kids. The place is beautiful, great place to stay with kids - many pools just for kids."

"A very secure, well appointed apartment with easy access to the pool (over the road) and marina. Diogo is an excellent host and communicates well. Fully functional air conditioning in all rooms which is a massive plus. Newly installed boiler had a water leak caught in a jug which we had to empty (Diogo aware and awaiting an engineer). Building work being carried out in upstairs flat during the first few days which created some noise in the mornings. They were the only negative points (and won't...
