Loved by Dona Filipa Hotel guests
"The location of the hotel is superb right by a beautiful beach that stretches for miles that is kept to a high standard of cleanliness."
"We stayed in a premium room with golf/sea views. The room was luxurious and the views from the small balcony were simply wonderful"
"My room on the top (5th) floor had a beautiful sea and golf course view (though have heard rooms on 1st floor - under the swimming pool - were pretty grim)."

delicious breakfastquick check-inlarge roomtired decorold showershower curtain
The breakfast was delicious and had plenty of choice. Check-in was quick and easy. I was given a large room, great.
My room had a traditional feel, but the decor was tired. The shower in the bath was old fashioned. I did not like having to use a shower curtain (very old fashioned).
