鄧斯多拉達海灘俱樂部飯店(Dunas Douradas Beach Club)

Beautiful resort next to an amazing beach. Accommodation first class. Only criticism……. It’s more of a residential settlement rather than a resort. Which is not clear from the web site. Only one restaurant on the site with another in east walking distance but both quite expensive. A short walk along the beach, however leads to a small collection of local bars/ restaurants, where good food and drink is often accompanied by live music. A better equipped supermarket would be a huge improvement.

My wife and I stayed for 2 nights which was the first trip abroad child free for 4 years so we went all out! We arrived at the gated front at 7.30pm, through to reception, all checked in quickly and into our garden view apartment. A lovely view of the sea from our balcony and inside very spacious with a large bedroom, en-suite, separate toilet and shower, lounge and large kitchen. The reception arranged for a taxi to pick us up from just outside the apartment to Villamoura. Next day I walked down to the shop on site, a good selection of cereals etc and warm pastries and take away coffee. Following breakfast we ventured down towards the pool area, had a lovely coffee in the sun and then walked down to the amazing beach which was absolutely beautiful. We had booked a couple of beach bars nearby for the day (Izzy’s and Julia’s) Final morning we headed for a walk on the beach again, packed up and headed for check out where the lady at guest relations was there who requested feedback. The trip was like a second honeymoon, 10/10 throughout and if we are able to secure a baby sitter again next year we will 100% be going back as I can’t recommend enough!

Dunas Douradas is a stunningly situated and pristinely-maintained resort nestled between Quinta and Val do Lobo. We have stayed several times and loved each visit. The service is excellent, with friendly and super helpful team members. The properties are beautifully appointed and fitted with nearly everything you could possibly require. The beautiful terraces are a great place to relax, have a hot tub or make use of the excellent outdoor kitchen. This time we stayed in J23, a newly refurbished property, which was simply gorgeous. A daily cleaning service is provided, with sheets changed twice weekly. The bed/linen quality is absolutely amazing. The resort has several pools including an indoor heated pool. The on-site restaurant/bar is excellent - we just had lunch here and also ordered dinner up one night. Maria's restaurant is a stones throw away out the back gate and also an excellent option for lunch. Quinta Shopping Centre is less than a ten minute drive as well as a variety of gorgeous restaurants. We rented a car and used Uber for dinner transfers (a total steal!). Our daughter is older, but the resort is excellent for children - including a children's pool and playground. We cannot wait to return.

Venho a 16 anos seguidos para este resort e estou desiludido com a qualidade do atendimento e do serviço, conseguiria ter um serviço igual ou melhor num hotel de 2/3 estrelas e pagar 6x menos. Como se isto não chegasse, o chefe da segurança Sr Nelson do grupo 8 é extremamente arrogante, nao tem o mínimo respeito pelas minhas crianças nem para a dos meus amigos e conhecidos mas quando se trata de estrangeiros ou de adultos a sua personalidade arrogantemente e agressiva muda completamente. Este mesmo por desconfiar que um dos meus filhos nao estava alojado no hotel encostou a cabeça a do meu filho e agarrou lhe pelo braço tentado o expulsar do hotel de uma maneira violenta, mas como acontecimento muitos outros ocorreram durante a minha estadia e da minha família. Para além desta perseguição constante por parte do segurança, o serviço e atendimento é realmente péssimo.

Apartamento muito bem equipados com uma decoração bem cuidada. Localização excelente - a 5 minutos da praia. Atendimento e limpeza sem nada a apontar. Restaurante "Saudade" com uma esplanada excelente e uma relação preço qualidade agradável.

We komen hier al zeker 6 jaar. De locatie en alle voorzieningen zijn gewoonweg perfect. Met onze favoriete strandtent Maria's voor de deur. Ook heerlijk in het voor- of najaar met het binnen zwembad. Appartementen erg schoon en ruim, iedere dag schoonmaak. Zelfs de vaatwasser wordt in- en uitgeruimd.

Brilliant Holiday. Thank you to all the staff at DDBC for a lovely holiday. Staff are very professional and friendly, in particular Miguel on the buggy and Anna and Dory at the kids clubs. My two boys loved going to the kids club every morning. Accommodation was very clean. I look forward to coming back.

For anybody who cares even remotely about Nature you should be aware that Dunas Douradas resort is ACTIVELY derstroying a protected nature reserve next to their resort and then lying about it when asked. If you care about the environment at all DO NOT STAY HERE.

Dunas Douradas Beach Club is a first-class establishment in a great beachside location, with excellent staff and a pleasant, laid-back ambience despite the luxurious five-star surroundings. A very well-appointed, tastefully decorated apartment, with a large balcony - complete with a Weber BBQ - overlooking attractive gardens and the sea. Comfortable beds and well-lit bathrooms, with good shower pressure. We did not use the home entertainment systems much, but there seemed to be every TV channel imaginable in multiple languages, and guest-access Netflix. I am actually a little reluctant to write this review, as we were guests at Dunas Douradas, courtesy of a friend who very kindly invited us to stay in a property that he owns (paying only for cleaning), so our comments must also be seen in this light. Nevertheless, feedback - even from "non-paying guests" like us - can sometimes be helpful, so here goes. My primary takeaway is that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, not least because all of the DDBC staff were quite excellent. Friendly, helpful, relaxed. They left a very positive impression on us, from the cleaners to the reception staff to the swimming pool attendants (who were most accommodating in arranging for us to use the sauna). Even in a ***** luxury establishment such as this, one is always dependent on the smooth interaction between staff and clients at all times, and the personnel here were a real credit to the brand. 10/10! The apartment itself was large, elegant, and very well-equipped, albeit the lack of any personal effects (it is not "lived in", so it had none of the usual things you might find in a typical holiday rental - books, games, foodstuffs basics like salt and pepper, olive oil, or coffee filters in a kitchen cupboard, etc) might make it feel a bit impersonal and hotel-like to some people. Maybe this is just us. In fact it probably IS just us, as the apartment's kitchen delivered a couple of amusing surprises during our stay. By any standards, the kitchen is fabulously well-equipped for cooking. It is a chef's dream. It has EVERYTHING, including high-end Bosch oven, Bora induction hob, citrus presser, the whole nine yards. And yet I suspect nobody has ever cooked there before us. I made a large piece of salmon in the oven, but when I went to find oven gloves, in order to take the burning-hot dish from the oven, there were none. Everything else under the sun, but no oven gloves. Had nobody EVER used the oven? Then I used one of the two excellent Teflon-coated frying pans, but could not find any non-metal spatula. There were at least two steel spatulas, but these will happily destroy a Teflon frying pan. Had nobody EVER fried anything in the apartment? It is, of course, possible that they have not, but have eaten out every single day, or ordered Uber Eats. Even so, it might be worth adding these two simple and inexpensive items to the housekeeping list, just in case a future client does want to "self-cater" in what i
