The Hotel Presidente at £100 ish per night for a 1 bed appartment and a 3 star rating from the travel company sounded like an August bargain. The room was very clean if basic but was perfectly adequate. The location next to a fantastic beach was also good and Praia da Rocha was a short pleasant walk away for food... More

I stayed one night with a group of seven, we used two apartaments, one with two rooms and another with one.Both are nice. This hotel stays between two beaches - "Praia da Rocha" and "Praia do Vau". Some of the rooms have sea view. That said, it has a very good location, about 5/10 minutes walk (but you have to... More

We were 4 adults staying in a very spacious 2 bedroom apartment. The kitchen had all the utensils you could need including a butter dish! No oven but who wants to do proper cooking on holiday anyway. We were on floor 6 and had a balcony, huge terrace and fabulous view. The apartments don't have air conditioning and some evenings... More

Just came back yesterday and honestly could not fault our stay. The local beach is lovely, small, interesting and three minutes walk away. There is a wee kiosk on beach for hiring loungers and buying ice-creams and coffees. If you want pedaloes ( The ones with slides are great) a bigger beach is ten minutes walk away. We had two...

After reading the reviews on here (and elsewhere) this seemed like a good bet - and we didn't have any major complaints but the hotel is basic and has a dated feel throughout. I was surprised to learn the apartments were built as recently as 1992 to be honest - some of the decor looks older than that! Kitchenette consists... More

Just returned from a weeks stay at the Presidente apartments which we would highly recommend. The rooms were clean and spacious with fresh towels everyday if wanted and bed linen changed regularly. The sea view from the balcony was fabulous. All of the staff were very friendly, helpful and couldn't do enough for you. The pool was clean and great... More

We have just got back from the Presidente and can definitely recommend the apartments. There is a wonderful view of the sea, and they are ideally located for nearby restaurants. The apartments are kept very clean with frequent changes of towels. We had a one bedroom apartment which was quite spacious and well equipped. The lack of entertainment didn't bother... More

Beautiful view, clean room. At a distance from Praia da Rocha easy to walk. Advice to enjoy diner at Titanic restaurant. Close to a very nice beach with 86 steps goeing down and also up of course when leaving the beach More
