Great stay. Issue with our room which was dealt with professionally and quickly by the team. Moved to another room which was great. All of the staff at the hotel were excellent. Always cheerful and incredibly helpful. Big shout out to Mona who looked after us at breakfast for three days. He was excellent.

Romantic getaway for two!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at this 5-star resort! It is the type of place I look forward to returning to. Super safe and peaceful property with trustworthy employees. The staff really go out of their way to be kind and we felt each of them did an excellent job! The hotel room had a thoughtful design with plenty of space for two. I enjoyed that the toilet was in a different room than the shower. As we were there a week, I also found the large closet system well designed. I couldn't wait to open up the large window door each morning to allow the fresh warm sea breeze air inside! My favorite part of each day was the (included) breakfast buffet. It was really the highlight to starting the day off right. Plus we found no rush in waking up early, as it's open until 11am! What a treat! We also enjoyed slowly walking around the property and taking in all of the trees and birds. The large lake is also fully stocked with different types of friendly fish to watch. There were four different pools (one being adult only). An indoor spa with a Turkish bath, Roman bath, salt water Jacuzzi, and a Sauna. I was able to book in for a hair trim and blowdry, and both my husband and I got facials too. The actual beach is just a short walk around the lake on property, over a bridge outside, and you're there! Very convenient. And a quieter stretch of beach opposed to the main strips. Although this was a relaxing time away for us, we still had to work. Excellent wifi & desk. :)

A great hotel with some great features
We stayed for a week at The Domes and really enjoyed it. The food at the staff are amazing. Plus the pools and grounds are up there with the best that we've ever seen. These things really make it special and 5 star. The only things that lose it a start (which is harsh) is that the hotel is a little tired in some places. The refit clearly targeted some key areas like the restaurants and parts of the rooms. But the indoor pool is now very dated for a 5 star hotel. The other thing that we felt that it lacked was entertainment or things to do. The kids club is good but apart from that there wasn't much for the kids to do other than swim. So a week felt quite long. Particularly as Villamoura really has nothing to it.

Lovely hotel and beautiful grounds. Incredible service from all staff. However, Some parts of the property were fraying at the edges at best, and housekeeping often lacking in cleanliness and attention to detail. A faded 5 star hotel that has the potential to be great again with some focused effort.
