Perhaps the most striking thing about this hotel is the interior beauty with lovely tile everywhere and some very nice artwork. The pool area is also outstanding, which is a word that also describes the restaurant. It is an excellent value with friendly service. Everyone mentions the great chicken, but I have to add that the french fries are great.... More

stayed again 16th to 24th October. usual third floor room with small balcony offering views toward sea. Hairdryer in bathroom now. Next improvement should be duvets instead of blankets but that isn't a complaint. Breakfast buffet has usual bread and rolls, ham, cheese,fruit salad, and bacon/fried eggs for those who like a cooked breakfast. Be warned though they are on... More

We have just returned from our 4th visit to Pica Pau. We originally found it through Trip Advisor, and we are so glad we did. Susan is so helpful and efficient, and the staff are warm and friendly. The restaurant serves wonderful food. There is a lovely outdoor swimming pool surrounded by gardens, which is a lovely place to relax.... More

This is our second stay, recommended by a close friend initially. Once again, I had a relaxing stay, the room was fairly spacious with a lovely balcony, the bathroom was nice, there was a (small) t.v with multilingual channels. The staff are fabulous and the pool is a godsend. Breakfast is OK. There is wifi in the bar that just... More

This is the third visit in four years that we have made to Pica-Pau. The rooms are very clean and the towels are changed every day. There is a hairdryer in the bathroom and also soap and shampoo. The large swimming pool area, with it's sun loungers, is a real bonus and very inviting. You have an extremely good restaurant... More

Rooms are simple, but clean. Beds were a bit hard for my taste. Loved the restaurant, the grilled chicken is just wonderful! Nice staff. Internet was not included, that was a minus. Didnt try the pool, we were there off season. Good hotel for a good price.

This hotel provides a good quality for the price. Don't expect luxury. I know the place for almost 15 years and indeed, it has not changed much. Room are clean but no airco in our room (I suggest it should be there next investment), pool is nice. Breakfast is basic but Ok, again for the price you cannot expect a... More

Excellent, friendly service from all the staff. The hotel has a very Portuguese feel but with lots of personal help and advice from its British owner. We booked a superior double room with balcony over the main entrance (for two weeks). It was clean and comfortable and we appreciated the air conditioning during the hot June weather. Very good value.... More
