Amazing beach front property, amazing views, close to many amenities. I would stay here again, and again, and again. Staff were helpful, kind, and accommodating. Breakfast buffet was tasty, saved lots of money by eating a hearty breakfast. Only dislike was that I couldn't take my food to my room, but that's so minor I don't even mind.

Nice hotel but even in April do not book an ocean view room at the front as it is impossible to sleep between 1pm to 4 pm with the youths hollering in the street below. We only got two full nights sleep out of seven as the weather was the only thing that stopped the racket.

Please allow us to inform that all our rooms are equipped with soundproof doors. Nevertheless, we regret that you were, unfortunately, unable to rest. Once again, we thank you for your preference and we hope to deserve your trust for a future visit to Hotel da Rocha.Best regards,
Firstly the room, we had an Ocean view, the room and view was trying something truly amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The breakfast was also excellent with lots of options based on varied diet requirements. It was my birthday during our stay, and I was surprised with a cake and a bottle of bubbly, Many thanks RR Hotel Da Rocha for this as you went above and beyond for me and I truly appreciated it. The short walk to the beach was ideal along with dining options around the hotel were perfect. Lastly I would like to say that ALL of the staff at RR Hotel Da Rocha were extremely professional, polite and an absolute credit to the Hotel, I do remember Jessica, Joao and another young man in the restaurant, along with the young porter who surprised me with the cake being particular stand out stars. But again all staff we encountered were professional. Keep up the Excellent work 😊

This hotel did not provide coffee or washcloths (wash clothes are not provided in several Portugal & Spain hotels), although there are several cafe’s in the area If you like quiet family friendly hotels, this is not the place for you unless your room is located on a higher floor than the first two floors, we were on the first floor. This hotel is located in a big party area with a huge nightlife!

Mature couple, stayed in ocean view room. View, location and area were excellent. Great central location to explore the souths east and west towns. Small grocery stores can be found throughout the Algarve, but the best for already prepared Portugese meals is the Intermarche Hyper in Lagos. Room was super clean, very large with a separate living area, balcony. Kitchen is fully equipped but no stove. Has full dishes, silverware and wine glasses etc. Has dish soap and dish towel, shampoo/ body wash and soap bars provided but no conditioner. Breakfast was cruise ship equivalent and had EVERYTHING you could possibly want, including complimentary sparkling wine. We Highly recommend this hotel!

Nice hotel, breakfast included for a small additional charge but it was definitely worth it - plenty of choices for food and drinks. Absolutely recommend to books it with breakfast included.
Close to the sea. As you exit hotel you are right in the middle of shopping area with view on the sea.
The only thing I didn't like we had to pay separately for parking.
