This is the third visit in four years that we have made to Pica-Pau. The rooms are very clean and the towels are changed every day. There is a hairdryer in the bathroom and also soap and shampoo. The large swimming pool area, with it's sun loungers, is a real bonus and very inviting. You have an extremely good restaurant... More

Rooms are simple, but clean. Beds were a bit hard for my taste. Loved the restaurant, the grilled chicken is just wonderful! Nice staff. Internet was not included, that was a minus. Didnt try the pool, we were there off season. Good hotel for a good price.

This hotel provides a good quality for the price. Don't expect luxury. I know the place for almost 15 years and indeed, it has not changed much. Room are clean but no airco in our room (I suggest it should be there next investment), pool is nice. Breakfast is basic but Ok, again for the price you cannot expect a... More

Excellent, friendly service from all the staff. The hotel has a very Portuguese feel but with lots of personal help and advice from its British owner. We booked a superior double room with balcony over the main entrance (for two weeks). It was clean and comfortable and we appreciated the air conditioning during the hot June weather. Very good value.... More

Booked this hotel because of the good TA reports and was not disappointed. The hotel is spotlessly clean and all the staff are very polite and helpful. We had the pool to ourselves as there were very few guests so this was a bonus. Our only (small) criticisms - .........unable to find a plug for the hairdryer close to a... More

Just returned from a 5 day stay with a group of 12 golfers, staff could not have been more helpful and cooperative. Every request was greeted with a smile and immediate action. Food good.

Had a week there recently, and yes it's not posh, things don't match and the OJ is dreadful. But it is charming, the people are all friendly and helpful, and it is very good value for money. The pool and the surrounding area are large for the size of the place. We were forced to eat in the restaurant more... More
