Very nice hotel! High-quality service. Nice and friendly staff. Very beautiful location and well-kept garden that charmed me. If you are traveling with your dog, this place is perfect because they treat him like a member of the family! We highly recommend it.
The only downside was that the water in the indoor pool was too cold for me, so I couldn't really relax in the spa area (we traveled in November).

This resort is beautiful. It was recently renovated and looks incredible. The staff were also lovely and made us feel very welcome.
That said, we had two major issues:
1. Food – Unfortunately, the food was very disappointing. We tried the restaurant one evening (the burger tasted oddly spiced, maybe with cinnamon) and ordered room service another night. Both meals felt more like canteen food than resort dining. For a resort of this caliber, we expected much better. We ended up eating off-site for the rest of our stay. Thankfully there are plenty of great restaurants nearby.
2. Heated pool – We chose this resort partly because it advertised a “heated pool,” which we thought would be ideal for late September in Portugal. In reality, the pools were freezing, closer to an ice plunge than anything usable. Hardly anyone was swimming, and when we asked about it, we were directed to the indoor pool, which was also uncomfortably cold.
Overall, the resort has a lot of potential, but some important basics need to be addressed to truly match the beautiful setting.

Excellent hotel. Beautiful location just off beach. Beautiful furnished and decorated. And maybe best thing, excellent service. Which is not that common in algarve and I know live here for 24 years. We choose also because dog friendly... Many places say... But here they are.. Can take dog anywhere and not looked upon. Spa also nice. Rooms very spacious all amenities there and excellent shower, airco etc.. Nothing to complain at all... Even the parking is OK at 5 euros per night... Instead of the ridiculous amounts they sometimes charge... So conclusion. Location great, hotel great, rooms great and overall service!

We spent the weekend at the hotel and are genuinely impressed. The grounds are spacious, beautifully designed, and well maintained, with direct access to the beach. The quality of the rooms, hotel facilities, and gym is top-notch. The outdoor pools are quite cold in early November (around 16–18°C), but there’s a well-heated indoor pool about 20 meters long—perfect for swimming. The staff are very friendly and attentive; we never experienced the long wait times mentioned in other reviews, though the hotel wasn’t fully booked. Breakfast was plentiful and left nothing to be desired. The gym is truly outstanding—excellent equipment, lots of space, and impeccably clean.
We’d happily come back anytime. We paid around €160 per night including breakfast.

Our stay at the Kimpton Atlântico Algarve was nothing short of spectacular, truly defining what a five-star coastal escape should be. This property expertly blends refined style with the stunning natural beauty of the region, creating an experience we won't soon forget.
Our accommodation offered a panoramic sea view that served as a daily masterpiece. Opening the curtains each morning to the endless blue horizon was an instant dose of tranquility. The design and comfort of the room made it feel like a private coastal sanctuary.
The hotel’s crown jewel is undoubtedly the Zenite Rooftop. This space offers some of the most breathtaking views of the Algarve I have ever witnessed. We spent hours watching the landscape transition from the golden glow of sunrise to the dramatic colours of sunset, cocktail in hand. It’s a perfect setting for both romance and quiet reflection.
For true relaxation, the wellness hub is a must. It is meticulously designed to be a peaceful retreat, offering excellent facilities and a serene atmosphere that perfectly complements a day spent by the ocean.
From the incredible vistas at every turn to the dedicated, friendly service, the Kimpton Atlântico Algarve provides an unparalleled sense of calm and luxury. We look forward to returning.
