Quinta do Mel

Staff amazing, great food, the most comfortable bed. A real treat to stay there. Attended the full moon BBQ with great music, fantastic service, food and drink brilliant, no complaints! This is a nice , relaxing place to stay away from the crowds but close enough if you want to join the party! Thank you for looking after us!

horrible service, waited almost an hour for our food and when asked about it they gave us a lame escuse that the order never got to the kitchen… really ??? took 45minutes to realize that ??? ipad wasn’t working?? the waiters were only worried about setting up tables for dinner and yawning the whole time , wasn’t well organized and customer service was poor. We decided to leave … and go eat somewhere else

Wonderful for a peaceful stay and within a 15 min walk of the beach and a short car ride to other areas. I have mobility issues and managed fine with walking to and from the beach. You intiailly enter the hotel via the restaurant and at checkin you'll be given access to a separate entrance. Restaurant has an extensive menu. Wonderful produce from the farm itself used including lamb, vegetables, jams, herbs, tea. I had an excellent orange and mint tea with some honey cake :) I stayed 4 nights in Room 3. The room was fairly small but fine for one person. Lovely interior and furniture. Stone floors. Window shutters make the room pitch black at night. Very comfortable bed. Air conditioning, kettle, water, organic shower gel/handwash in the bathroom. Separate towels for the pool. I had some feedback on how the room could be improved and that was given directly to the hotel. Breakfast was a highlight - the fresh orange juice is delicious! Fruit, museli, pastries, jams, cheese, ham, eggs, bread. All delicious. You can see why many non-hotel guests come here just for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Lovely grounds including seating so you can take in the farm, flora. Small pool with sun loungers is a lovely spot to relax during the day. There's a separate tv room too. The staff here were very attentive and although often busy, they were happy to help, good natured and hard working. I very much hope to visit again and in the meantime hope to order some of the delicious jams and produce online. P.s. in case you don't have a car like me, travelling around is very easy. I'd walk to the beach and for when I visited other places I took an Uber. E.g. Hotel to Albufeira: 9.5 euros Hotel to Praia Santa Eulália: 6.2 euros Hotel to Olhos de Agua: 3.8 euros

This was our favorite dinner on our 2 week holiday in Portugal. The atmosphere was "cute" as our Bolt driver ( we stayed elsewhere but nearby) described the restaurant. A country farm with fresh produce, meats and seafood. Beautiful views to enjoy while you eat. It made dinner an event. We ate here twice during our stay (once to celebrate our anniversary) in the area and could not love it more. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious and interesting. Try the Prosecco Sangria here- you will not be disappointed- it was like the drink of the Gods.

We’ve just returned from a 10 days stay at this wonderful Quinta. The staff is exceptional : from the lovely cleaning ladies who make sure that your room and bathroom is spotless, up to the kitchen staff who make your stay absolutely great and cook fabulous, up to the waiters who are so friendly that you feel at home. Many thanks to Marié, Ronaldo and Sjabi. Your smiles made our day. The peace and quiet was all we needed. The sheep and goats were a great surplus! Thank you all for making our holiday one of the best and lots of success in the future. Many hugs, Sandy and Guy, Belgium
