Great location, good facilities

Pros: Facilities were good, location is great, staff was very friendly, close to some very nice beaches and coastal paths, food selection was generally good. Facilities were good, location is great, staff was very friendly, close to some very nice beaches and coastal paths, food selection was generally good
Cons: Some of the fruit at breakfast was not entirely fresh. Staff struggled during busy breakfast times (we had to wait 10mins for coffee mugs at one point!!). We had yellow water coming out of the tap a couple of times (!!!) But staff assured us that it was all fine and was resolved quickly!
Location: Amenities close by. 3 fantastic beaches within walking distance

ok for masochistic insomniacs

The hotel down the road played loud music outside `till 11.30 every night.We couldn`t sleep`till it stopped.My wife and I booked a double room with "classic garden view".Our room actually overlooked the road outside the hotel.When I queried this,I was told that the only choice of rooms were the more expensive "seaview" ones or the rooms on our side of the hotel over looking the road.In other words there is no such thing as a "classic garden view" room at this hotel.The bed in our double room was actualy two single beds pushed together and were incredibly hard so we had pretty sleepless nights and backache every morning.After the third time asking, and being told that something would be done about it, I gave up.

Pestana viking - will return

Very clean. Nice people. Nice decor in room but garden view on ground floor in shaded balcony was no use. Wifi is a euro a day to have in room. You gat a free newspaper wvery day on pressreader which i loved. Huge supermarket 25 mins walk up road. We rented a much needed car unless you wanted to eat in the same 3 places all week. Nice italian restaurant nearby but pricey. Beach to die for two mins walk away. Safe cost 2 euro a day and was very hard to lock. Fridge and kettle were great as were the towels you could get every day for beach or garden. Will definitely return. Free wifi in reception lounges.

Good Hotel

We did not spend too much time at the hotel itself, but we felt comfortable and would recommend it. The only thing which bothered us were the many cats on the area (even during breakfast). This should not be the case in a 4* hotel.

Great to be there on your own

Great location, nice and helpful staff. The most beautiful beach ever just round the corner. Buffet meals with a good choice of food - even vegan options. :)

New Year in Algarve

Pestana Viking ensured that the experience was pleasant. The staff and faciliies were good. The Wellness Centre staff - Susana - ensured the treatments we received were excellent. Breakfast time was busy yet pleasant, for lunch in the hotel a good selection was also available. It was also nice that on my birthday a bottle of bubbly was left in the room! Gratefully appreciated!

Pestana Viking Christmas 2011

We were looking for a quiet chill out Christmas (we stayed 7 nights 24th Dec until the 31st Dec)....and found it here! A great location, great staff and a very clean and tidy hotel/room/resort. The mild weather helped, with clear Blue skies and warm sunshine everyday....Xmas day on the beach.....it couldn't be better! The indoor pool/jacuzzi/gym were well maintained although the steam room didn't really 'steam' ....but hey ho....I was outside enjoying the sun with a beer! The buffet style breakfast and dinners are of a good quality with plenty of choice....the Cream of Chestnut soup on Xmas day was divine. The beach at Senhora Da Rocha was clean and only a couple of mins walk. Obviously the time of year saw a lot of restaurants/bars closed but there were some really nice places open that served great food.....recommend the cataplana of fish at the Palmeiras, 1 min walk up from the hotel....very good food at very reasonable prices. It doesn't happen very often but we had a 10 out of 10 holiday!!!

Nice Hotel close to the beach(es) (two)

Pros: swimming pool - clean - near the beach - smiling and helpful staff -
Cons: Towels (really) and food (one of the country with best fruits and vegetable and not even fresh juice)
Location: whatever need a car
Very nice Hotel with nice swimming pool- big room - big bathroom (but towels worn until the rope, big whole in each - which is really a shame considering how clean is the hotel) the food is not exceptional but fine (no fresh juice for breakfast :-( but excellent bread )
