Highgate Independent, Barlavento hotels

"Excellent hotel right on the beach. Amazing restaurant on location. This property has it all Definitely would stay there again "

"The hotel is comfortable, breakfast is filling and its close to the beach. There are 97 steps to climb down to the beach. There is a grocery store nearby and parking is free, but be early."

"This was the most breathtaking hotel with a view I have ever seen! The staff was great upon arrival. We arrived 1 1/2 hours early and were able to spend some time at the bar and take in the view till our room was ready. We were also able to leave our luggage at the front while we went to cliff jumping prior to checkout. The drive was 20 min from the train station at tunes. I would recommend this resort 100 % Thank you Algarve!!!"

"Fabulous property. Location is great. Staff and service was wonderful. Breakfast was great. Highly recommended staying here.!!"

"Perfect place for family three nights away with teenagers.We spent most of the days at the pool by the Casa Azul, lovely breeze, never busy, and handy snack bar for drinks and food right there. Its a little hilly so prob not the best for anyone with mobility issues. Ate breakfast both mornings at the Alfarroba restaurant. (Tip: ordering off the a la carte menu is better value than the buffet but that nay have been because we got the buffet one day as it seemed to be finishing up). Mini market on the site stocks anything you need. Kids played mini golf one evening. The resort is not really walking distance to anything in the heat…maybe had it been cooler and we were there longer, we would have attempted to walk to old town. Ubers were about 6-8 euro into the old town or the strip and were easy enough to get- no waiting. We booked a three bed apartment that was in great condition but had slight sign of wear and tear, mainly with the light in the bathroom not staying on and one plug socket that had come away from the wall. Apartment had everything you could possibly need (washer, ironing board, good kitchen with dishwasher). Bathrooms seemed pretty new and shower had great water pressure. It was advertised as having one bathroom but when we got there, there were two which was a pleasant surprise with 5 people! Tip 2: We ordered groceries and food via Uber eats since it was late when we got there. Overall I was delighted with our time here and the facilities- perfect for us! "

"We loved our stay at this hotel, will recommend 100%"
