Reviews for Clube Praia da Oura

Review 1:Only stayed in a studio...a bit to small..door stop on bathroom floor beside toilet very dangerous. ..a mirror needed in the room area

Review 2:Location very good hotel reception lovely ...staff helpful

Review 3:Lots of steps up and down to rooms, as 9 floors and to get to level 3 overlooking the sea, you have to take one lift to 5 to take another further along to go to 3, other than that not bad.

Review 4:The staff where very good, breakfast buffet wonderful and proximity to the beach second to none.

Review 5:Thought the rooms could of been cleaned a bit more than once during my stay. Frequent change of towels would have been nice instead of once.

Review 6:Location,food and entertainment.

Review 7:I lost my jacket I left it in a hotel room before we got moved and I was waiting to hear back for a couple of days from the maids , it wasn't found but other than that it was amazing !!

Review 8:Hotel takes more guests than it should, given it's facilities. E.g. even in November, (at 8:30) we had to wait in line for a place to sit at, during breakfast.

Review 9:Location is great and it was quite cheap!

Review 10:The hotel was quite noisy.

Review 11:We got a really good deal at this hotel. The room was not one of the updated ones, but it was clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed for a few days away. Including a small kitchen. The grounds are lovely.

Review 12:Not good for disabled, I walk with 2 crutches and was put in a room on top floor far to far to walk but was relocated to ground floor on 2nd day, even though I had asked for ground floor for disabled person when I booked the holiday.Should have a lift to dining room very difficult climbing the 22 stairs to go for meals.

Review 13:very good clean accommodation

Review 14:stayed here for 9 weeks last year, came back for overnight with family,bed was awful, not comfortable for sleep, there was ants in room,the whole overnight in room, was awful got no sleep neither did my children on the rubbish bed and sofa, im disgusted as i have family arriving there for christmas as i recommened the hotel ,but this time the room and facilities was awful very dissapointed, i made complaint to management but got no sympathy, never again

Review 15:was close to our friends staying nearby on their holiday

Review 16:We stayed all-inclusive and were impressed by the service and staff. Food was generally good for all-inclusive. The close proximity to a beautiful beach was a real winner.

Review 17:Fantastic ocean view from our balcony (apt 857), welcoming staff in reception esp. Helena and a lovely, friendly maid who had our apartment looking immaculate whenever we returned each day.

Review 18:I didn't like the all inclusive aspect of the hotel it has changedfrom paradise, to noisy greedy drunks who start drinking at lunchtimeand gradually get louder and louder as the day goes on.This really hasspoilt the holiday for us this year.But the staff are superb and Ifeel sorry for them having to work their socks off catering for thegreedy masses.

Review 19:Been to this hotel for the passed 10 years usually a great holiday.

Review 20:Didn't like plastic glasses or paper cups! More cold food needed at lunchtime. More variety of evening food required.

Review 21:Location was excellent. Staff brilliant. Value for money.

Review 22:I don't like how each year you go you have to ask to change rooms. We won't be going ever again. The beds are so uncomfortable it is unreal poor. You don't get what is advertised. We had to leave this accommodation early due to bad backs. When booking it should have been a superior room, it wasn't they changed us 3 times. We ended up with a deluxe standard.

Review 23:Where it is situated is fabulous. The whole place is great facilities wise. They have a daily bus service, which is brilliant.

Review 24:Not what it says on website superior twin room with sea pool view the only thing accurate was the view. Rooms pokey with put up beds tried to change but most unhelpful restaurant not big enough and had to Que for meals

Review 25:Not much only friends we made

Review 26:The outside surfaces within the complex were very slippery, the red tiled floor near the lifts was flooded and I nearly went over a few times and got wet feet as it was a couple of cm's deep.

Review 27:Very clean and staff were always accommodating. Room was comfortable and adequate and lovely views. Would definitely return.

Review 28:Food considerably inferior to the other 4 times we stayed.(between 2010& 2013); and the guests this year were rowdy, unlike other years!The first was undoubtedly due to new management and, the second possiblyto cheaper rates. Rooms this time not cleaned or equipped properly;inadequate lounge area (for wet days!)

Review 29:Excellent pool & facilities; lovely gardens; spacious apartment,:good views from appt. Accessibility to beach, walks , cafes andshops..Excellent shower in apartment, and wifi facilities throughout!

Review 30:At first I did not like my room that I was staying at I ask one of the staff to move to a better room no hassle and no stress

Review 31:Everyone was nice and willing to help you the beach was like no more then 2 minutes walk food there was wow drink was nice

Review 32:Excellent family vacation in a great hotel right on the beach. Beautiful gardens and good pools and sauna. Staff is very friendly and helpful. All inclusive is perfect.

Review 33:Someone else in our apartment when we arrived.Also huge cockroach infestation in entire 'K' block.Second Aprt had green tarpaulin 12ft high directly facing terrace.They wanted an extra 250E to move us to the third apart (1 bedroom) which is what we initially booked.We declined and ended up, totally exhausted, accepting a small twin bed studio at the same cost as the 1 bedroom double that we had originally booked :(

Review 34:The view and the cleanliness/ housekeeping. However you will probably have to fight to get a decent view/apartment but they are there.

Review 35:Unfortunately large groups of single people are now staying there, very noisey and not as pleasant to stay there now.

Review 36:Location, close to beach, shops, restraints, have been visiting twice a year for 18 years.

Review 37:Not enough staff. It's a huge complex with only 3 staff at the front desk and only 1 in the bar!

Review 38:The entertainment was excellent. A bit "Butlins" but still great fun.

Review 39:Cleaning staff was not nice and whole area not very nice.... Not nice bars and v rough visitors.

Review 40:Reception staff v professional and friendly... Vv helpful and mannerly.

Review 41:We booked a "Superior One Bed Apartment with sea/poolview". The room most certainly was not superior in any way. Friendsbought exactly the same specified room from booking.com and got a muchbetter room, we complained but were told it was the view that made theroom superior. No amount of complaining was going to make the receptionstaff change their stance that ours was a superior room. Our room had apokey and noisy bedroom, very smelly bathroom (constant overpoweringdrains smell) and the decor was tatty. Avoid!

Review 42:We liked the surrounding area but not the hotel. Restaurants and barsoutside the Hotel were good. The best thing about the hotel room was theview, especially sunset, everything else was pants.

Review 43:Only thing we didn`t like was, not staying longer than the 10 dayswe booked.

Review 44:When we arrived we were upgraded to an Infinity apartment, with greatsea view, room 417. Well done cpo .

Review 45:Didnt have any bad comments

Review 46:I loved how close the beach was literally down a flight of stairs on we were on the beach and only 5 minute walk to the strip with plenty of bars and restaurants. Old town only 5 min taxi also

Review 47:no aircon just 2x fans it was very hot all day and night in our room and no reception on mobile

Review 48:the seaview room it was fully equipped with hairdryer microwave kettle and cutlery and maid service every 2 days even for self catering. very clean.location is goo near to shops and restaurants

Review 49:We had an absolutely dreadful experience on this holiday in clube praia da oura. Last time we visited I put up an amazing review because we had a class holiday. That was in April 2015. We stayed in October 19th- 24th and everything was just fine until we set off for the Airport on Thursday morning. We had booked the Transfer from our reception desk at the hotel on Tuesday night. We gave the booking confirmation details to the receptionist and she made the reservation for us with Follow Me Transfer company. They turned up 15 minutes late and by the time we got to the airport, the boarding gate was closed. We did not get the flight home. I was just devastated. There was no other flight with our airline until 24 hours later and we were not in a position to stay any longer as we were out of money. Air lingus was flying out 11 hours later and this cost us 664.00 Euro. We had to use a credit card and this was money we didn't have. We are waiting, waiting, waiting for a reply from clube praia da oura. We rang them twice from the airport. We were so upset. We emailed them and so far they have Not nswered. If we get a reply and a form of recompense we will feel a bit better. Awful afwul thing to happen. Worst part was lack of communication from our all time favourite hotel. Teresa

Review 50:I would like to provide an update to my previous review in September 2015. Clube praia Da Oura have been in touch with us and a resolution has been reached. We are very happy that they engaged positively with us and I would like to add that at no time were we dissatisfied with the facilities, staff, accommodation at the hotel. Quite the contrary in fact. I am happy to say that we plan to holiday there soon again and are looking forward to that very much. TERESA

Review 51:people who took the food and drinks package were extremely loud and it was terrible to see so many drunk even early in the day.

Review 52:excellent staff,very efficient and friendly

Review 53:Noise from night disco, a lot of ants in the room.

Review 54:There was a special offer, so we've got really great apartments with spacious living room & kitchen & a huge terrace. The room is equipped very well,

Review 55:awful smell from the toilet so much so that we had to keep the light in the bathroom on at all times to activate the stench pipe vacuum. pointed this out to management, with little interest shown by them.

Review 56:the landscaping surrounding the hotel and proximity to the beach

Review 57:Only negative about the place was that there was no Air Con in our room and you would wake up fairly sweaty in the mornings. There was two fans in the room but you couldnt keep them on all night otherwise you wouldnt get a wink of sleep. Im aware that they are in the middle of updating all rooms so im sure all rooms will have Air Con for a finish. Love the place, would stay again, only ask for Air Con on booking!!!

Review 58:Loved the location and the gardens that the resort was set in. Stayed in one of the older rooms but it was still good, everything was clean and had a nice view from balcony. Swimming area was good, a little crowded but also very good access to beach.

Review 59:Didn't have any bad experience

Review 60:Brilliant location can suit for every one stags hens families etc staff very friendly the hotel is probably the best and main resort in the new Town litrully beside the beach !!

Review 61:Staff really rude when we checked in - they allocated us a room that was already occupied and wouldn't apologise. Terrible service. Never go back.

Review 62:Location

Review 63:We had to check out at 10 am and the wifi didn,t work.

Review 64:We got an upgrade so the room with view to the sea was very nice. The bedroom was small and had only a window to the floor

Review 65:Pool area was very poor over crowded ,too room between and no beds at anytime during day as empty beds with towels on them . People holding beds is not nice ... Very bad

Review 66:Staff very nice at reception and local near beach area is great x room excellent

Review 67:We were in a "superior" self catering room. In truth it's a studio with a good size balcony containing a couple of sun loungers, a table and a couple of chairs. We actually enjoyed it as we used the balcony a lot. Others may not be so keen.

Review 68:Fantastic location, good facilities, helpful and friendly staff, evening entertainment if you wanted it but the Hotel is handy for those wanting to venture our in the evening whether that be an evening meal or a big night out.

Review 69:Took an imprint of my card which they say they use for any damages...yet have come home to find they have taken part payment when we explained that we would be using my husbands card to settle any balance...so I would say slightly unauthorised.

Review 70:Location and cleaners in 3 times a week changing towels.

Review 71:The check in of 5pm was too late. The pool area wasn't clean with too many sun loungers rammed into a small space.

Review 72:The location is perfect for the beach and the strip. The staff are warm and friendly. The accommodation was clean and well kept in our 2 bedroom deluxe apartment.

Review 73:There was no WiFi in our room but u could get it at reception.

Review 74:Staff at reception were so helpful, location was brilliant just beside the beach and walking distance from the strip! Will definitely visit again!

Review 75:Queues for reception, no air-conditioning, and total lack of control over whose next in line after ordering taxis from reception

Review 76:View of sea and pool from balcony, large pool area, bouncy castles for kids, some of the entertainment, Gardens are well kept,location beside beach and 5 mins from strip or 6euro in taxi to old town, kids club is on in the mornng and afternoon

Review 77:That fact of having to return home

Review 78:This was our 6th time staying in cpo. And every year it has got better. A magical place which suits people of all ages.

Review 79:The breakfast was really not good! A serious improvement would be advisable! The lunches weremuch better! Excluding some exceptions of really nice staff the rest seemed "unhappy" or just overworked due to the "high season" maybe....

Review 80:The view from our appartment to the sea was amazing! Every morning happy to be there!

Review 81:A little bit expensive to stay there. Staff were not the most friendly or helpful. Free wifi didn't work at all in the room,

Review 82:Great location, really nice pool and just on top of beach. Loads of restaurants/cafes/bars around. Felt safe there. Cleaners come often.

Review 83:Ants in room Pool extremely busy Massive complex wifi in room doesn't work even if you pay Dirty around pool and around complex

Review 84:Hard to find something good to say about this hotel other than it is vey cheap so you get what you pay for

Review 85:As the resort is huge (I'd estimate over three hundred apartments) some people will obviously be a lot further from the sea than they'd wish. There's a huge variety of apartments here, some privately owned or 'Club Infiniti,' rooms, which can cause confusion, some rooms have Jacuzzis outside while others are very basic! Make sure you get what you asked for especially if booking through this website!!! We booked a Superior Sea View Room via Booking.com and were disappointed when we arrived to get a room with no proper balcony, over-looking the car park with old fashioned décor . When we complained we were moved to a much nicer room on the eastern side of the complex with a sea view.

Review 86:Great location, extremely close to Praia Da Oura beach and other beaches. Lovely beach side restaurants and cafes over looking the sea a two minute walk away . Five minute to the busy New Town Strip , pharmacies, wide variety of restaurants and bars. Well kept resort with three pools and two bars and a restaurant. Good entertainment for families with music and a bouncy castle every evening. Could not hear music rom our side f the apartment which was a bonus as we did not have kids.

Review 87:the advanced payment (it wasn't supose to, according to the booking policy), the wifi (inside the room you need to pay a 7 euro/day tax and on public spaces it had a poor signal) and the lack of diversity in meals

Review 88:Sea view, apartment, staff

Review 89:Check in,no parking ,2 tier guests,ie timeshare and the rest,3/4 of the grounds out of bounds for non timeshare,non timeshare not allowed to use the pool of the sister hotel in August, no prior explanation.Slow to react to problems ie Parasol broken took 24 hours to resolve.Paid for 3 nights, check in 5.00pm and out at 10.00am ,7 hours to clean??? lost most of a day.

Review 90:Room with a view

Review 91:The hotel has 3 buildings , only one with airco. If you stay near the beach you cannot choose room with airco. The buildings are not comfortable to access to the beach if you travel with people that cannot walk so easily. Complicated Arquitectura of hotel. They don't clean rooms every day. Privacy of rooms in the sea front building is not ensured.

Review 92:The Oura beach is nice and not crowdy. The rooms with terrace are nice if you choose sea view rooms. Good animation for kids

Review 93:Quite few steps ,,, hilly resort .. No good if have walking problems

Review 94:Right on the beautiful beach ,,, plenty water sports ,,, good selection restaurants and bars ... Upgraded to a deluxe apartment and it was modern and spacious with big veranda

Review 95:No daytime entertainment as spread across several sister hotels! No table tennis at this hotel and just one pool table and just one cue working when we left last week, a few more pool tables and table tennis would be great for the many teenagers and adults !!

Review 96:The location of the hotel is excellent, on the beach and five minutes walk to the lively strip and a free shuttle bus to the Old Town about 15 minutes away. Staff on reception so helpful and friendly and the same in the restaurant. The evening entertainment team and also Elvis, Tina Turner and Bruno, Rock band were fantastic ! All inclusive such good value for money, soft drinks and shorts and wine brilliant, great breakfast, lunch and sandwiches at 4pm, just evening meal which is a bit repetitive but on the whole excellent ! Gorgeous family refurbished room with amazing sea view !

Review 97:Have to pay for wi-fi! Was hard to sleep at night as was extremely warm! Air conditioning was very bad!

Review 98:Location was excellent !Close to the sea, and fantastic beach!

Review 99:The food was awful. We had purchased an all inclusive package and found the food repetitive and of poor quality. The alcohol was similarly basic. However we did eat out at local restaurants and the food was no better so perhaps this is an AIbuferia problem?

Review 100:We stayed in the superior rooms which were fantastic, felt like a 4 star hotel.

Review 101:No daytime entertainment spread across a few hotels !

Review 102:All inclusive fantastic value ! Staff great in the restaurant ! Evening entertainment been great Elvis, Tina Turner and Bruno Rock Star !

Review 103:The block of apartments I was in had no internet connection after paying 21 euro for the week and it still didn't work

Review 104:Location was excellent , friendly and helpful staff

Review 105:Liked everything, my only fault would be that reception was very busy,but not the hotels fault really.

Review 106:Fabulous hotel, grey location, great service with entertainment provided each night. The hotel surroundings were well maintained and beautiful!

Review 107:The rooms were cleaned every other day and there was no cleaning on Saturdays and sundays. During the 5 days we stayed there our room was cleaned only once and we were given only two small pouches of shampoo. When we asked for some more, they said we only give shampoo for the first day. No beach towels were given,the beds were too narrow and uncomfortable.

Review 108:We liked the location of the premises and its proximity to the beach. In fact this was the reason we chose this hotel.

Review 109:not much in the way of entertainment for kids, lots of dancing shows for adults

Review 110:the beautiful grounds, the one bed appartment in block s, lots of room and the pool was nice if a bit small

Review 111:Risc is high your apartment will be in the building all the way back along way from the pool and reception, with traffic and no view. The pool area is extremely crowded and all the guests put their towels on the sunbeds at 9AM. If you come after this, you wount get a sunbed that day so the beach is you only option. Room was cleaned only twice in 9 days.

Review 112:Friendly and helpful staff in the reception

Review 113:Lack of or rather no air-con in our apartments which is a joke considering the cost! And by no means was it Superior as described..

Review 114:Location, breakfast

Review 115:Old faithful too many towels on sunbeds

Review 116:Location was great and rooms were very comfortable. Just we were there in the heat wave so AC would have been welcoming but all the rest was great.

Review 117:Rude staff, dirty pool area, big groups of guys dining in the pool and playing rough ball games, reception literally do not care. Had a meeting with "customer service" who only wanted to sell me a time share.

Review 118:Room was nice.

Review 119:this is sold as a club hotel but in reality is just appartments , staff dont care about guest they just there to take the money the first day. to expenssive for what it is . noo properly cleaned. checkin at 5pm never seen anywhere before.

Review 120:Apartment was not clean. Crumbs on floor when arrived which attracted ants and stain on bedsheets.

Review 121:Great location, view of the beach from room. Good breakfast and facilities within the area. 5 minute walk from pubs/restaurants.

Review 122:BREAKFAST! Very little selection and mostly fried. Very little choice of fresh fruit and coffee from a machine with sugar already added.

Review 123:Beach. Scenery.

Review 124:No air con in rooms, having to pay for wifi in rooms

Review 125:Absolutely beautiful resort, the lay out is like something I have never seen before, the gardens are very pretty, and its so close to the beach , the sauna, jacuzzi and outdoor swimming pool makes your stay extra relaxing, I would for sure recommend to friends and family , the entertainment that was their for kids would be ideal for some of my family members , I really enjoyed my stay here and will most likely go bac again

Review 126:Our hotel room was fabulous, plenty of room and the view of the beach was great. We stayed in a one bedroom superior room with sea view which had air conditioning which was an added bonus and needed as it was very hot!!

Review 127:Having to wait until 9 to access pool, that was the only negative tho, it was all positives..

Review 128:Fab location, on the beach, our apartment (556) was in block E, looking onto the sea. Lovely patio, fully fitted kitchen, great power shower!

Review 129:We paid a good biy extra for a terrace and sea view. The sea view was practically non-existent and the terrace was very disappointing as it was shared and got barely any Sun.

Review 130:We thought we had booked a one bedroom apartment but it turned out to be a studio, with no air-conditioning, and it was uncomfortably hot.

Review 131:Very clean, friendly staff....

Review 132:It cost us an additional 7.50 euros per night on arrival for cot hire, which booking.com didn't inform us - not a great start, as we could have taken our own had we known. The cleaner came (once) while our toddler was napping, so we asked her to come back, but she didn't, so the floor was very sandy by the last few days. There was no broom in the apartment for us to do it ourselves. We were disappointed that there is no longer kids entertainment in the evenings outside of school holidays - presumably since it changed management.

Review 133:Great for kids. We spent our mornings on the beach, had lunch at the beach cafe, then went back to the swimming pool (which had warmed up a little by the afternoon). A bit hilly with the pushchairs, but it also gave us a good view from our apartment. The beach is great for kids, with rock pools and nice sand.

Review 134:Breakfast was terrible, i never tasted worse and ive been to a lot of hotels, pool like a sardine tin full of sardines!! Staff were inpersonal and frustrated looking.

Review 135:Only good thing was our apartment was overlooking the sea and a beautiful cafe(beach caffe) fish was wonderful at night and staff were lovely.

Review 136:The room i booked was suppised to have garden/pool view..i was looking out onto a car park strip .room 006 not a major problem really

Review 137:Everthing was perfect ideal location close to strip hotel facilities were excellent and ground maintenance around the gardens and pools were also very good ..flat screen TV with plenty of movie channels that are provided by the hotel free of charge was brilliant for when you need that little recharge at 4 or 5 in the evening after been out all day in the sun ..also the reception staff i found very polite ..

Review 138:Crowded resort with no real customer service. Check in was to be at 6pm until we complained. Bird droppings on patio. No air conditioning. Fans did not work. Very low end.

Review 139:Good location

Review 140:No free wifi. No air conditioning in most apartments, so in the summer when the sun is shining directly at the glass door windows, the apartment will heat up like crazy with only one fan to spread the hot air around.

Review 141:Excellent location, nice apartment, comfortable bed, amazing view. My apartment faced the sea, so it had sun shining at the glass window doors pretty much all day.

Review 142:The check in was tediously slow, and the rooms initially allocated were in a recently acquired annex which is separate to the main complex, and not what we expected from previous stays. After some discussion back at reception different rooms were allocated, but very far from the beach.

Review 143:We liked the proximity to the Strip and Albufeira Old Town. Apartments are nice, with spacious balconies.
