Morabeza Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"A fantastic hotel and vacation. Beside the beach and the town (Santa Maria). Their beach club was excellent - food, drink, facilities and staff all brilliant.
The main hotel is excellent, plenty of space and staff about. 3 pools at the hotel, all well catered for with sun beds and parasols. Whole complex is clean and well looked after.
Staff are all so friendly and helpful. Restaurants and bars are excellent too.
Our room was a suite and was excellent. Properly cleaned every day and well furnished. Great views from the room and the balcony."
"Ich hatte zwei Kakerlaken bei mir im Zimmer. Die Klimaanlage hat laut gequietscht und wurde auf Nachfrage nicht repariert. Das Gym war nicht gut ausgestattet. Das Restaurant war gut. Der Strand wunderschön!"
"Great location, clean and tidy, and the breakfast had a good selection. The air conditioner was quiet and the “do not disturb/clean room” door handle tag was a cute touch."
