Depressing and trashy package holiday resort
Trashiest hotel experience of my life! I have no idea how this was classified 4 stars, someone somewhere is having a laugh. There was dampness in stairwell. Way finding sign posting was crazy and illogical. The clientele were horrible rowdy British people on all inclusive deals knocking back alcohol and shouting at each other across the pool. The food was depressing. Ordered a chicken salad and it came covered in cocktail sauce like we were stuck in 1980! The scrambled eggs were so overcooked they could doyble up as a weapon and the juice was not fresh but full of sugar and from concentrate. Toiletries were cheap. Decor looks like a cheap office block. The hotel does not have an iron in the whole hotel? It's apparently 4 stars but I have no idea how it got this rating? The phone in my room did not work. The tv automatically turns on and advertises how great the hotel was, I wonder how much they paid people to say it was the best hotel in the world ?(the propaganda didn't work as I was staying there???). On arrival I turned on the bath and the water was brown. So happy to have checked out. Outdated plc3 and a miserable experience.

Great resort in terms of view and surroundings. Also very close walk to the beach. Only thing missing is some amenities like an iron in the room, the beds are also not very comfortable. Overall the staff is very friendly except for the man who makes your eggs in the morning. On more than one occasion he was impolite or made a big deal on small requests like omlettes or even distributing the crepes. I would still go back to this hotel however based on the good qualities outweighing the poor ones.

Vila Gale Nautico. Weekend stay.
Great hotel which is very well maintained. Very good breakfast. The hotel has a large pool with a children's side pool, set in a lovely terrace/garden area. It is conveniently located near to the sea front, with a wonderful beach nd plenty of restaurant choices nearby.

We knew of this hotel but had never stayed here and have been to this resort many times. We were kindly upgraded to a pool view room. It was a very nicely decorated and obviously with the name had a nautical theme to it, very clean and the upkeep of the room a high standard. We had a buffet breakfast included which had a very good selection of everything and a chef at an egg station to cook omlettes,fried eggs etc,it was also nice to be able to get breakfast til 10.30am The hotel itself is at one end of the resort and probably a 20 minute walk to the other end but on the way there are plenty of restaurants to choose from. It also advertises itself as a child friendly hotel ,as we went out of season there were very few children there but activities were arranged by the pool and music played so I would advise that if you like a more child free zone only to go out of season . The staff were all very nice and pleasant and I found it difficult to find anything to complain about. Another nice thing is the management invite you on your last night to meet them and discuss your stay and give them feedback ,something you rarely experience nowadays . If I had to have a little moan it would be having to pay €2.50 per day for the safe , I haven't done this for many years and seems a retro step. Wifi was also available and free of charge.
