"Wonderfull - could not fault anything!!"
We stayed four nights in the Vila Gale Marina and could not fault the hotel or staff on anything. I really don't know what other visitors are talking about when they say the breakfast was worst ever-there was plenty choice for everyone and was excellent! The staff couldn't have been more helpful with any queries we had and that was only to ask directions and assistance with day trips. Rooms cleaned and new bedding and towels daily. Perhaps in the height of summer, the pool would be on the small side but you are only a 5min walk from a beautiful large sandy beach. Our favourite restaurant for eating out in the evening was The Mayflower, looking onto the Marina. Vilamoura is beautiful, clean and from what we saw, trouble free. We will definetely be booking Vila Gale Marina again.

"Cracking hotel!"
We enjoyed a lovely break in Vilamora in August 2006. We were confident that the Vila Gale Marina would meet our expectations and fortunately were not disappointed when we arrived! The double room was spacious, clean and with a nice sized balcony for that early evening drink! Satellite TV and Air Conditioning was an added bonus ... what more can you ask for. One tip for you, hire a mini bar from the hotel reception (two euros a day but well worth it). If you would like a room with a very nice view of the harbour ask for a room on a high floor. We were on the 6th floor in the centre of the horse-shoe (shape of the hotel) and the view was fantastic. The hotel has an adequate sized swimming pool with a smaller area for young children. There is also an indoor pool, jacuzzi and sauna area (you have to pay extra for the last two). A gym is provided for the fitness types. Light snacks and drinks are available by the pool all day. One criticism frequently posted on this site is that sun beds are not readily available and that some of them are in the shade all day. This is quite true (due to the horse shoe shape of the hotel) but should not present too much of a problem if you are prepared to get up at a reasonable time! PS. get your sun bed mats from the indoor pool area. The reception/bar area is comfortable and live entertainment is provided in the evenings. I never experienced the entertainment first hand but it appeared limited. I'd say therefore that this hotel is not ideal for people who want to stay in the hotel in the evening and not venture too far away. Vilamoura itself is full of good quality restaurants and a mixture of bars. Boat trips can be booked at the far end of the harbour (opposite the hotel). The most popular location for restaurants/bars is situated around the pretty harbour area which is lively until after midnight. People have commented that the harbour restaurants are expensive, but I think they are similar to British prices. I say that you get what you pay for. No British louts in sight, lots of Portugese people enjoying their own country, which was nice to see, and somewhat reassuring. For something different try a visit to Val do Lobo (25 mins drive along the coast), a purpose built resort with nice restaurants and impressive/romantic sea views We will return to Vilamoura one day and I would be happy to return to this hotel.

"It did exactly as it says on the tin"
I spent a lot of time researching where to stay in Vilamoura and found this web site to be an excellent source of information. We chose the Vila Gale Marina due, in a large part, to the reviews and also ensured that any negatives identified were mitigated. We took our own kettle for example!! The staff at the hotel couldn't have been more helpful, they even let us check-in as soon as we arrived ... at 10:30am, and although they only had rooms available on the 3rd floor at that time we could move the next day if we wished. As it turned out, the hassle wasnt worth it and we stayed put in two adjoining rooms, and we were still high enough to see the sea! The breakfasts were fantastic ... one review has criticised them for being the same every day. That can only be because there is a choice of everything ... cereals, fruits, many breads and pastries, cold meats, bacon, sausage, beans, eggs (done many ways), cakes, etc. The hotel has a games room with pool, table tennis and air hockey and an indoor pool which has to be a bonus as the weather becomes lest predictable. The only negative that I can think of is the design of the hotel being horse-shoe with a pool in the middle which probably works well in the summer when the sun goes directly overhead. Whereas later in the year when the sun is lower in the sky the west facing opening only gets a glimmer of sun-light on a few of the sunbeds. However, with the beach only being 200 yards away and other excellent resorts being only a short drive away this gave us no problem. We found that the Italian restaurant - Nosolo (with the Orange awnings) was very good, the fact it was busy every night was testamant to that. And Vilamoura itself was probably the most classy resort we visited. Top holiday and saved loads by booking it all myself!! Highly recommended.
