Aldeia da Pedralva - Slow Village

  : The staff is educated, pleasant and helpful. We suffered form the heat and they helped with a solution. The view is nice and there's a lot of trails and beaches to explore. Houses are pictoresque and the village itself is cozy.
  : The rooms are not climatized. The heat was unsufferable and there's not even a fan. When we walk on the village streets, we can feel the heat coming from the house's windows, like they are open ovens. Terrible, it was really hard to sleep. Swimming pool is not well maintained and impossible to use during the afternoon because of the loose children. There is absolutely no phone service and wifi only in the rooms, not in all facilities, like mentioned. Forget about the option to use the bbq. The village is public, so the bbq is always occupied with groups eating pizzas from the local restaurant and having a party. There is no waste management. Waste everywhere, coming out from the bins. Overall, my wife is expecting and we chose this place to have a calm and peaceful week. It was the opposite and we were eager to return home.

Very Good

  : Quiet and clean with full kitchen amenities & an outdoor pool! Since it is a village only 2 restaurants on site and not much else to do but to relax and enjoy the quietness. Definitely worth the experience when in Algarve region & cool story how this village was brought back for non locals to enjoy.
  : Breakfast selection not worth the money.

  : Nice quiet village with the aura of history. Welcoming staff, clean appartments, nice patio with view on mointains and olive trees. There was an outside pool, but we did not use it because of the weather, but it looked nice.
  : Bed was not so comfortable and springs made loud noises when turning at night. A bit far from beach.
