Great location with nice rooms. Our room had a rooftop with chairs and lounge chairs for tanning. One issue was the moldy bathroom- no ventilation caused black mold. We were sick with upper respiratory infections by day four. Pool was nice and there is poolside service with food and beverages. The breakfast buffet is included and there’s a nice variety of food. The buffet included made to order omelettes the buffet also included fresh fruit, pastries, potatoes, mimosas, juices, meats, cheeses, pancakes, and more. There’s a fitness center. There’s also a kids play area. There is a golf cart that can take you around the facility by request. If you need an airport shuttle, please schedule it in advance because it’s not readily available upon demand the boardwalk is within walking distance. There is a liquor store within walking distance. There are many places to eat nearby.

We have stayed in dozens of hotels worldwide and have never experienced anything like this ever.
During our stay at NH Marina, my wife’s jewellery disappeared from our room after housekeeping had been in, she leaves it in the exact same spot every single night even at home.
When we raised the issue with reception, the response was dismissive at best. Instead of showing urgency or empathy, management brushed us off and offered no real help.
Not once did anyone apologise properly or take responsibility. Their so-called “investigation” was nothing more than asking housekeeping if they had seen it — as if that alone is an acceptable standard when a guest reports a theft from their room.
We were left feeling unsafe, disrespected, and ultimately forced to check out early because their only answer to anything was go to the police station.
A supposedly 4 star hotel should make guests feel cared for and protected. Instead, we were treated like an inconvenience.
What makes this worse is that other reviews mention similar issues with theft and security at this hotel. Clearly, this is not an isolated incident, but a pattern that management chooses to ignore.
For the price we paid, we expected professionalism, hospitality, and reassurance. Instead, we got none of those things. It ruined what should have been a relaxing trip.
If you value your belongings, your peace of mind, and basic decency from staff, do not stay here.

Absolutely brilliant beautiful place to stay🙌.
Location was the best being flat to walk to the beach and bars whereas all of the hotels in the area are up higher, climbing steps. Lovely two storey hotel with great swimming pool. Rooms lovely with air con and kept very clean. Service great polite helpful staff. Food ..amazing. And the views from the restaurant are to die for... overlooking Marina and Estuary...so many beautiful boats passing by. My husband was in his element. We would definitely recommend and will certainly be back. Thank you for making our stay so great.

We had an absolutely amazing time. Our room was comfortable with good Internet speed Wi-Fi the view from our room of the marina was breathtaking. The food at the hotel was very high-quality and great variety. We stayed for seven days and did not see the same salad repeated Even once. The views from the Restaurant were also superb. The hotel has an amazing gym facility which made our time excellent. The saltwater pool is an excellent place to chill out. We also had a smaller pool near our room. The beach Praia Roche is quite far from The hotel but is amazing. I was given a special treat on my birthday a cake and a bottle of champagne and I felt that this was so generous from the staff and I’m very grateful for it.The walk into town is also quite refreshing. We even took the pirate ship down to the Benagil caves. We already miss being at the NH Marina Portimao.

Just arrived back from a fantastic stay - staff all lovely and especially the buggy drivers who were all brilliant with our son who is a handful (Gabriel especially, he’s missing him already!). I can’t understand the negative reviews, yes breakfast is a bit of a walk from the furthest block which we were in but it was beautiful and we managed it with two toddlers in under 5 minutes. Breakfast was an amazing spread and the ladies on the omelette station were lovely. Also the bald man with glasses at breakfast and the pool bar (sorry didn’t get his name) but he went above and beyond with the kids. Pool was big, the kids loved it and had the pick of sunbeds. 2 minutes walk to restaurants/bars and a small hill to the main town - we pushed a double buggy up every day so nothing to moan about!! The cleaning ladies were also lovely and went above and beyond. I honestly wouldn’t regard the negative reviews, I would go again in a heartbeat.
On a side note I would request if you found our sons sheep teddy in room 004 can we arrange to return it please?!
Thanks so much!!
