Spatia Comporta

We had a fantastic weekend stay at this beautiful hotel. The room was lovely, and we were very impressed with the quality of service throughout our visit. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of variety, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Definitely we'll be back!

This place is a true gem. Beautiful scenery in the middle of the woods, nice rooms, very kind staff. The breakfast is, I would say, whatever I could wish for. Great variety and freshness. The pool at Colmo is huge. What I noticed is that the part that was build first somehow lags behind. I could feel it even from the lights during the night. We have stayed in the older part at it was darker and somehow maybe less attention to details then in the new part. Otherwise, we had great 3 days here and we would come back anytime!

Spatia is a nice place. We stayed in a cabana which was very nicely built and furnished, very comfortable spacious and cool. There is a nice pool which when we were there was not crowded (although we didn't spend very much time there) and a couple of tennis/padel courts. It is situated in a fragrant and lovely grove of pine trees and it is very peaceful and calm. Points I would make for potential visitors - “Comporta” is a large and scattered area. This property is kind of far from everything. Comporta village is 20 minutes drive and Carvalhal (closest beach) is also 20 minutes drive. Whilst 20 minutes isn’t that far, if you want to go to the beach, come back and shower and then go out for dinner you are talking about way over an hour in the car just going back and forth. The hotel does run shuttles to and from the beach but I would highly recommend hiring a car. If you want to spend a lot of time on the property, or go to the beach then eat in the hotel then that’s fine (and there are a lot of young families staying who seem to do just that). There is a restaurant onsite which is perfectly decent - we however like to eat in different local Portuguese restaurants. Second - there is no gym or spa - apparently there is a wellness centre under construction. Third - the people working there are absolutely lovely and helpful but service is all a bit variable at best - slightly chaotic breakfast service for example. This is just a matter of training and organisation (so it’s really a leadership/management issue, not the individuals themselves)

Spatia Comporta largely exceeded our expectations. We immediately fell in love with the property and its concept; everything was perfect. It was quiet, silent, peaceful and extremely beautiful. We will surely come back again and again and again! Congratulations, Spatia!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Spatia Comporta. Whilst it is just outside Comporta (a car is beneficial to discover the local area) we really liked the laidback relaxing vibe, a real getaway from it all. There are tennis, pickleball and paddle courts, just head to reception and request whatever racquets you require. Cycles are also kept there for general use around the property. If that’s too energetic you can laze around the pool and be supplied with drinks and snacks. There’s a great selection of food for breakfast and we enjoyed a few dinners and the Monday BBQ at Ora Restaurant - the Scarlet and Tiger Prawns are huge and delicious! We stayed in a stunning and extremely comfortable cabana, which had everything required for a perfect stay. The staff here are amazing, nothing is too much trouble and they go out of their way to make sure your stay is everything it should be. Spatia Comporta was hard to leave and we genuinely look forward to returning.

Spatia is both a unique and unusual place. The resort is set up with rooms located far, far from the main building. During our stay, the Spatia Club, which also has a pool, was closed, so we had to use the main pool. Everything was beautiful, but it's important to bring everything from your room, as the quickest way to get around is by driving. Though bikes are available. Walking from the rooms to the pool, breakfast area, or main building is almost not feasible. The rooms themselves are nice, well-equipped, new, and spacious. The main pool, which is heated and also very nice, has limited capacity, and unfortunately, guests tend to reserve sunbeds with towels. I encourage the resort management to address this issue proactively with guests. Overall, it was both a “unique” and “unusual” experience...
