Belmar Spa & Beach Resort | Apartment in Porto de Mos, Faro District

“Brilliant location close to the beach and two fantastic restaurants. The food on the al-a-carte menu in Belmar was also great. We had a first floor apartment overlooking one of the pools and easy access to the carpark via a lift which was good for our son who has a heart condition. Highly recommend Belmar and their staff.”

“Awesome! You can’t find a better resort in a better location than this. I learned that ALL beaches in Portugal are public, so no resort is directly on the beach. This is 5 minutes from one of the best beaches in Lagos, with two great restaurants and bars right on the beach. Can’t beat it!”

“Everything about our experience was top drawer. We arranged airport transfers with them beforehand, and they helped with dinner reservations as part of the check in. All that was left to do was relax and make use of the wonderful facilities. This is a place that we will 100% come back to.”

“Great customer service good clean room lots of pools close to beach”

“The Bel Mar was great. The rooms were very spacious. Not only was it a nice hotel it was also a great value. There was a washing machine in the unit too which the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. The staff was helpful. Multiple pools, great view, easy walk to the beach, convenient on site parking. We were a couple in our 50’s, there were families too. The drive to town was easy. A great place to stay and relax but also easy access to town if you have a car or an easy uber. Highly recommend.”

“Love this hotel!! Friendly and helpful service! Room was clean, spacious comfortable! Breakfast buffet had great variety of food! We enjoyed our stay! We will return again this summer!”

“There were many great things about the property. It is beautiful - pools are lovely, walk to the beach is reasonable, it's an easy taxi, or doable walk, to town. Rooms are spacious & clean. Bathrooms are very nice and views from rooftop balcony were amazing - saw a great sunset. It was fun to have the bar/cafe by the pool (delicious smoothies!). The staff was generally kind and helpful when they could be. There were some challenges with our stay which is why I can't give it 5 stars. 1. At checkin, they said they would notify us when the place was ready. But eventually we checked again, & it was ready, they had forgotten to tell us. 2. As soon as we got into room, some extremely loud construction sounds started - we could not hear each other it was so loud. When I first asked when it would end, they told me there was no construction on site, and that they could not control outside noise. It was much back and forth before someone investigated. To the good, after checking they immediately changed our room, and it was an even nicer room. They were very kind about it. 3. Ants. So many ants. They sprayed, but they kept coming back. 4. The washing machine didn't work. Someone came a couple of hours after we asked,, and fixed the fuse. 5. After they fixed it, we no longer had ANY hot water. We asked, someone came, he said he would send someone else, but never did. It was cold showers the rest of the visit. Overall, a beautiful property, but some kinks to work out.”

“Room size was great everything is minimal but what you need! Items dry outside over night my only critique was to our room specifically ~ the coffee maker didn’t work and the tv didn’t also but was fixed quickly. The coffee maker never functioned properly and the couch had a big sag in it when you sat on one side. Thankfully we spent little time in the room! The pool/staff/bar/restaurant were amazing! Parking was easy if you’re in a larger car beware it’s very hard to maneuver in the garage. The beach access and beach was stellar! Highly recommend wish I had stayed longer would’ve tried the spa. Next time! The staff alone made this a repeat choice!!”

“The staff were quite rude. They said we were not entitled to use the pool facilities . They were not included in our booking. One staff member was very polite at the adult pool, his name was Diego.”

“It was a beautiful property and a fantastic location. The service was the worst I have ever experienced. Staff were generally rude and not helpful.”
