Dom Jose Beach Hotel (Plus)

Breakfast was lovely. A great mix of hot and cold foods. Fresh fruit, yoghurts and pastries. The hot food was sausages, bacon, eggs, mushrooms, beans, and some pancakes. The room was well appointed with a lovely sea view, but the bed was uncomfortably hard for us. We requested a softer mattress if possible, but this wasn't provided. We did ask at reception, but nothing was done. The location is superb. Quarteira is a beautiful little town on the waterfront and the Dom Jose backs on to the beach. Lovely.

Breakfast was very good. The room was not very comfortable, and the hotel was generally old. It was apparent that they tried to make it suitable for guests, but it wasn't perfect. To be fair, my opinion is influenced by my previous stays in mostly 4- and 5-star hotels, while this one is a 3-star hotel. This means the same level of quality should not be expected. Nevertheless, the staff were very welcoming, especially those at the restaurant. Our room did not have slippers, so you need to bring your own. Unfortunately, the gym was not accessible, and the pool was small and, of course, too cold to use in December.

The checkin was smooth, we had some struggle to find the entrance ( apple maps does not identify it) where luggages could be unloaded at arrival, parking was fine, just you need to be patient and turn one circle around the hotel. Night promenade vibe was fantastic, take your time! Room, beds and utensils were perfect.

Cleanliness, beach front location, outside bar/covered area that was also a good snack bar, breakfast and lovely staff. Sometimes it took a little longer to get a drink, but staff were always very pleasant Modern but small bedroom. View from sea view balcony. Guests mixture of nationalities, which is refreshing. I certainly don’t understand the hotel star* rating system Dom Jose is a gem, we shall return

Lovely location, amongst a nice beach front, super staff and very helpful breakfast staff. Everyone was super helpful.
