"We had a brief (2 nights) stay at Rocha Brava. The property was in need of an update but was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. Staff were helpful and efficient. The garden areas were well kept and the pools looked inviting but were unheated so as we our stay was in early March we did not make use of them.Useful free return shuttle service which ran three times per day from the site to the local village & beach.

"Excellent accommodation that exceeded our expectations but unfortunately the main idea of our stay was to enjoy the wellness facilities which were closed and we should have been informed prior to arrival.
Being in February and the weather not being warm enough to enjoy the outdoor pool ( or beaches ) we definitely were looking forward to enjoying sauna and jacuzzi as well as indoor pool .
We would have chosen another resort should we have known."
"Everything about Monte Dourado was good but it would have been better if it wasn’t for the 82 steps up and 82 steps down every time we went out. A lower unit would have been perfect."

"The apartment was very clean and the reception staff was courteous.
The apartment itself lacked even the basic condiments so make sure you bring your own Coffee for the coffee machine (Filter coffee), and your own salt and pepper, napkins/tissue papers (its a shame). Also note that all rooms are at different levels (about 8 steps to each area) so not ideal if you have mobility issues or have small children (wouldn't recommend this place for families with children). Mattress quality can be improved. One afternoon there was no water in the apartment due to some broken water line which was quite inconvenient. No grocery store nearby (walking distance). Sharing all this so you can plan ahead. "
