Info
Summary of reviewsAP Adriana Beach Resort enjoys considerable acclaim for several key aspects that contribute to a memorable and rejuvenating retreat. The resort's remarkable location near the gorgeous Praia de Falésia stands out, offering stunning cliffside views, direct beach access via picturesque wooden staircases and an abundance of lush green spaces and gardens. The tranquil, secluded setting is highly praised, making it ideal for relaxation while still being conveniently accessible to nearby towns via services like Uber. Outdoor enthusiasts appreciate the resort’s support for hiking, walking and cycling, complemented by generous facilities like large pools and ample shaded areas.

Breakfast at the resort is widely lauded, particularly for its exceptional quality and variety. The buffet offers diverse, plentiful and healthy options, including alternatives like almond and soy milk and even a vegetarian breakfast choice. However, minor issues such as early closing times at 10 am, the temperature of dishes and some problems with fresh juices and coffee have been noted.

Dinner experiences also lean positively with guests commending the extensive variety of tasty, well-prepared dishes available at the buffets. The grill restaurant garners praise for its quality and atmosphere. Though repetitive food options and occasional issues with food temperature are mentioned, the general impression of dinner remains favorable with ample, healthy choices and delicious desserts.

Room feedback is mixed; many appreciate the spaciousness, modernity and comfort of certain accommodations, notably the two-bedroom apartments and rooms with balconies. However, reports of dated furnishings, noise insulation issues and inconsistent cleanliness highlight areas needing improvement. Rooms spread across the large resort area result in varied experiences concerning proximity to central facilities.

Cleanliness varies across the resort. While the meticulously maintained grounds, gardens and beach access are commonly praised, some guests experience issues with inconsistent housekeeping in rooms and cleanliness around the pool area. The resort's public spaces often reflect a high standard of upkeep, though lapses in areas like the pool deck, dining facilities and common bathrooms occasionally undermine this image.

The staff at AP Adriana Beach Resort are consistently highlighted for their warm, friendly and professional demeanor. The reception and entertainment teams receive particular commendation for their service and engagement. While some guests report isolated instances of unfriendliness or communication barriers, the overall consensus emphasizes the staff’s contribution to a welcoming and enjoyable stay.

Wifi service at the resort yields mixed reviews. Despite being free, issues with weak and intermittent signals, particularly in rooms and certain public areas, are common. Many guests find the lack of a secure and reliable connection a significant downside.

The spa garners praise particularly for its massage services but suffers from repeated mentions of closures, outdated facilities and the need for improvements in cleanliness and ease of access to amenities like the jacuzzi and sauna. Conversely, the gym receives high marks for its equipment quality and variety, maintaining good standards of cleanliness. The additional presence of facilities like tennis courts, table tennis and a spa enriches the fitness experience further.

AP Adriana Beach Resort’s pools are another highlight, offering various experiences to cater to different preferences. The main pool is lively with daily activities, while a quieter second pool provides a peaceful retreat. Cleanliness and the availability of sun loungers and umbrellas are mostly praised, though there are occasional remarks on maintenance and water temperature. The pools and the friendly, accommodating staff contribute significantly to the overall pleasant ambiance and outdoor experience.

Overall, AP Adriana Beach Resort excels in many areas, offering picturesque surroundings, commendable food quality, engaging staff and diverse facilities. While there are some areas requiring attention such as room upkeep and wifi quality, the resort largely presents an attractive option for a fulfilling beachside escape.

Location

Nestled amidst the scenic cliffs and facing the gorgeous Praia de Falésia, the resort provides direct access to beautiful sandy beaches that are merely a short stroll away. Visitors are consistently charmed by the tranquil and peaceful environment, far removed from the hustle and bustle of nearby towns, though services like Uber facilitate convenient access to Albufeira and Vilamoura.

The expansive, well-maintained resort property boasts lush green spaces, a backdrop of pine trees and stunning gardens that complement the natural beauty of the coastline. Guests lauded the resort for its beautiful and quiet ambiance, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and disconnection. The proximity to the beach is particularly appreciated by families, offering ample space and almost a sense of a private beach experience.

For those inclined toward outdoor activities, the resort’s locale supports hiking, walking and cycling. Meanwhile, the property itself features generous facilities including multiple large pools and plenty of green shades. The beach access, often described as marvelous and convenient, involves picturesque wooden staircases leading down to the shore, ensuring guests can effortlessly enjoy the sun and sea.

Overall, visitors found the resort’s location exceptional with easy beach access and a beautiful surrounding landscape that promises a memorable and rejuvenating stay at AP Adriana Beach Resort.

Breakfast
'A stay at AP Adriana Beach Resort brings an array of options that cater to diverse tastes, starting with breakfast. Many guests have praised the breakfast for its exceptional quality and variety, considering it one of the best meals of the day. The buffet breakfast is described as diverse, offering plentiful and healthy ingredients with certain themed restaurants available for an alternative dining experience.

Multiple reviews highlight the extensive selection, delicious food and the consistent quality across breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets. Healthy options like almond and soy milk are available and there’s even a vegetarian breakfast choice.

However, there are areas for improvement. While the selection is broad, the temperature of the dishes can sometimes be lacking. Fresh juices and coffee have received criticism; specifically, the machine-based juices and instant coffee fall short of expectations. Additionally, the breakfast buffet ends at 10 am, which some found to be too early. Instances of missing items like coffee cups or glasses and small drinking glasses were noted.

Overall, the breakfast at AP Adriana Beach Resort is seen as a highlight for many, boasting a great variety and quality that aligns well with the resort’s standing.'

Dinner
The dinner experience at AP Adriana Beach Resort received varied feedback from guests, though the general consensus leans positively. Guests frequently praised the wide variety of food available at the buffets, highlighting the tasty and well-prepared dishes. Many found the food to be delicious and appreciated the different meal options that cater to diverse tastes. The grill restaurant with table service, also garnered positive feedback for its quality and the atmosphere it provided.

The buffets were often described as very clean and spacious with plenty of healthy food options and specific mentions of delicious desserts and grilled items, suggesting a strong appeal to those looking for variety. The food at dinner was often described with terms such as "excellent," "great," and "very good," and many guests noted that the meals always offered something different each day.

However, not all feedback was glowing. Some guests felt that the food could be repetitive and expressed a desire for more variety, particularly in vegetarian and vegan options. The grill restaurant received mixed reviews; while some enjoyed their meals there, others described the food as poor quality and the experience as disappointing. Additionally, some guests mentioned issues with the temperature of the food, noting it was not always hot.

The dining facilities themselves sometimes faced criticism for being too busy and disorganized with long waits and occasionally insufficient staff. Despite these criticisms, the overall impression of dinner at AP Adriana Beach Resort is largely positive with commendations for the varied and well-prepared meals dominating guest reviews.

Rooms
The rooms at AP Adriana Beach Resort have received mixed feedback from guests. Many travelers highlighted the spaciousness and modernity of certain rooms, describing them as comfortable, clean and well-equipped. The two-bedroom apartments and rooms with balconies were particularly appreciated for their size and amenities.

However, some reviews indicated that rooms can be somewhat dated and in need of renovation with specific mentions of mold, rust and old furnishings. Noise insulation was commonly cited as an issue with several guests noting thin walls and the intrusion of external sounds.

Location-wise, rooms span across a large resort area, resulting in varied experiences depending on proximity to main facilities. Some guests found their accommodations too far from the reception and central amenities.

Cleanliness appears to be inconsistent; while many guests reported well-maintained rooms, others faced cleanliness issues, including unclean beds, leftover construction marks and insects.

Overall, while the resort's rooms provide comfort and essential amenities for a decent stay, there are areas, particularly in terms of upkeep and soundproofing, that could use improvement to meet the 4-star standard definition.

Beds
The reviews for the beds at AP Adriana Beach Resort paint a mixed picture. On the positive side, several guests found the beds to be very comfortable, cozy and equipped with top-notch bedding. Sunbeds around the pool and gardens also receive commendation for being available in large quantities and providing peaceful, shady spots for relaxation.

However, many guests experienced discomfort due to various issues with the beds. Numerous reviews mention that the mattresses are too hard, worn out or cheap, leading to an uncomfortable sleep. The bedsheets and pillows also attract criticism for being uncomfortable, lumpy and sometimes stained. A recurring complaint is the use of single beds pushed together for couples, which many found inconvenient and less romantic. Additionally, the protective covers on mattresses were noted to be noisy and disruptive.

Extra bed provisions and baby cots were reported as uncomfortable and unclean by some guests. The bedding in superior rooms, designed for small families, was also found lacking in comfort. Lastly, there were multiple mentions of insufficient sun loungers by the beach and the pool and many of the existing ones appeared damaged or in need of maintenance.

In summary, while some guests enjoyed a restful sleep on comfortable beds, the overall feedback indicates a need for improvements in bedding quality and better accommodation for couples.

Cleanliness
AP Adriana Beach Resort, nestled in a beautifully maintained, expansive park, presents a mixed picture when it comes to cleanliness. The grounds and gardens stand out, often described as superbly well-maintained and exquisitely landscaped, contributing to a delightful overall ambiance.

Guests often note that the resort's cleanliness levels differ markedly between public spaces and private areas. While some highlight an impeccable overall appearance and spotless hotel facilities, complaints about insufficient and inconsistent housekeeping services are common. Rooms are cleaned daily, yet some visitors found them only superficially swept, sometimes seeing spider webs and even prolonging stays in uncleaned conditions for days. Similarly, the frequent lack of thorough sanitation in common and public bathrooms tarnishes the otherwise pristine image of the resort.

The pool area, though beautiful, often didn't meet cleanliness expectations, leading to discomfort and dirty feet quickly. Deficiencies around the pool deck, combined with reports of dirty loungers, exacerbate the issue for guests seeking relaxation.

Certain elements of the resort, such as the well-organized and properly maintained outer spaces, clean beach access and family-friendly environment, maintain high standards. This attention to the broader aspects can enhance the holiday experience despite occasional lapses in detailed cleanliness. However, areas like the dining facilities drew criticism for dirty tables and cutlery, diminishing the dining experience in the all-inclusive setting.

In essence, AP Adriana Beach Resort offers a stunning, well-kept environment that caters well to families and nature lovers. Still, it would benefit significantly from more consistent and thorough cleaning practices throughout both its rooms and common areas to ensure a consistently comfortable stay for all guests.

Staff
The staff at AP Adriana Beach Resort receives widespread praise for their warm and friendly demeanor. Reviewers frequently highlight the exceptional friendliness, helpfulness and attentiveness of the employees. Many guests noted the staff's professionalism and efficiency, particularly mentioning the animation team and reception staff as standout performers. Specific staff members such as massage therapist Marina, entertainer João and receptionist Daniel were noted for their exceptional service.

Guests appreciated the staff's constant availability and their willingness to go above and beyond, creating a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere. The entertainment team also stood out for their engagement and activities, which were particularly appreciated by families with children.

However, the feedback wasn't uniformly positive. Some guests experienced difficulties with bar and restaurant staff, pointing to issues with unfriendliness and a lack of professionalism. Communication barriers, especially with staff not fluent in multiple languages, posed challenges for some visitors, leading to occasional frustrations.

Despite these mixed experiences, the general consensus emphasizes the staff's friendliness and accommodating nature as one of the resort's strongest points, contributing significantly to an overall pleasant stay.

Wi-Fi
Visitors to the AP Adriana Beach Resort have shared mixed experiences regarding the hotel's wifi service. While some guests found the wifi reasonably fast and appreciated that it was provided for free, others reported numerous issues. The wifi often had weak, intermittent signals and was not available in certain areas such as the rooms, building AB and the pool area. Guests also noted that they sometimes struggled to maintain a stable connection, which could be frustrating when trying to access the internet. There were also mentions of the lack of a secure wifi network, leading to additional concerns. Observations indicate that the wifi quality could improve significantly to enhance the overall guest experience at the resort.

Spa
The spa experience at AP Adriana Beach Resort has elicited mixed feedback from guests, primarily pointing out areas in need of improvement. Multiple reviews noted that the spa facilities were often closed, whether due to off-season periods, COVID-19 restrictions or issues with outdated equipment. Specific amenities like the jacuzzi, sauna and steam bath were described as small, dingy and requiring pre-booking. Some guests highlighted the need for significant renovations and better cleanliness in the spa area.

On the positive side, those who accessed the spa appreciated certain elements. The massages received high praise, particularly the earth massage which was deemed delicious and very relaxing. The availability of treatments such as massages and the inclusion of spa options like a jacuzzi and Turkish bath were also noted. However, these highlights were overshadowed by reports of restricted access, poor maintenance and unavailability that reduced the overall appeal of the spa experience at the resort.

Gym
The AP Adriana Beach Resort boasts a well-equipped and impressive gym, receiving high praise from guests for its quality equipment and variety of machines. Despite its small size and occasional comments about the lack of certain equipment, the gym seems to largely satisfy visitors, especially considering the resort's overall beautifully quiet setting. The fitness center is complemented by additional facilities like tennis courts, table tennis, a spa, Jacuzzi, Turkish bath and sauna, further enriching the overall experience. The gym maintains a good standard of cleanliness and the equipment is relatively new and well-maintained, making it one of the better hotel gyms according to several reviews. This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to continue their fitness routines while enjoying the family-friendly parks and landscapes of the resort.

Pool
AP Adriana Beach Resort offers a variety of pool options that cater to different preferences. The resort features two main outdoor pools, both praised for their impressive size and aesthetic appeal. These pools offer ample space and plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas, enhancing the guests' relaxation experience. The pool areas tend to be clean and well-maintained, although occasional feedback suggests that more frequent cleaning could improve the experience.

For those seeking a lively atmosphere, the main pool hosts daily activities and entertainment, though it can sometimes get crowded and noisy. Conversely, a quieter second pool provides a peaceful alternative for guests wanting to relax away from the commotion.

Children and families will find the pools particularly enjoyable, supported by positive remarks about the kids club and related pool entertainment options. Despite a few comments about the water being cold or the temperature needing adjustment, the pool facilities are generally well-received.

Furthermore, the pool staff are noted for being friendly and accommodating, contributing to the overall pleasant ambiance. Though some guests mentioned the need for more pool chairs and parasols, as well as better upkeep of certain pool areas, the general consensus is that the pools are a highlight of the resort.

With a nearby beach and plenty of green spaces, the AP Adriana Beach Resort provides a versatile and enjoyable outdoor experience for pool lovers. The mix of lively and tranquil pool environments ensures that all guests, whether looking for fun or relaxation, find a spot that suits their needs.

Tennis
AP Adriana Beach Resort offers a range of sporting activities, including tennis, which receives mixed feedback from guests. The resort features several tennis courts and plenty of other sporting areas like mini-golf, ping pong and basketball courts, providing ample options for active visitors. Many find the tennis courts to be a fun activity, enhancing their overall experience. However, there are some concerns about the condition of the equipment; guests report that tennis rackets and balls are often in very poor condition.

While the tennis courts themselves are generally appreciated and described as "good," a few guests noted they could be improved or even redone. It's worth mentioning that tennis, along with other activities, incurs extra charges and there are additional costs for renting equipment, which some guests found unreasonable. Despite these drawbacks, the resort stands out for its variety of family-friendly activities, ensuring entertainment for all ages. The dining options and extensive sports facilities contribute positively to the holiday experience, though potential visitors should be prepared for some additional costs.

Parking
AP Adriana Beach Resort offers a range of parking options to cater to guests' needs. Free parking is available and it includes both outdoor and underground spaces. Many found the availability of secure parking on the premises to be a significant convenience, especially for handling luggage. There are ample parking spaces, so most visitors did not encounter issues finding a spot.

The resort's parking system also includes some for-pay options, such as unshaded parking and limited spot reservations for a small supplement. The location of the parking is convenient, adding to the overall value for money of the resort. However, there are a few limitations, such as insufficient parking inside the hotel perimeter and the need to walk far on the large premises to reach certain areas.

For those preferring not to drive, the resort provides affordable bus services to nearby towns like Albufeira and Vilamoura, although these require advance booking and are infrequent. Overall, the parking facilities at AP Adriana Beach Resort have received positive feedback with only minor areas for improvement, making it a practical choice for travelers.

Family
Adriana Beach Resort is a stellar destination for family vacations, offering an abundance of activities for children and a family-friendly atmosphere. Its tranquil setting, characterized by beautiful surroundings and well-planned alleys, makes it ideal for families, particularly those with young children. The resort boasts individual lodges and spacious, peaceful areas perfect for unwinding.

A highlight of the resort is its excellent entertainment team and high-quality animation programs that engage both kids and adults. This includes a highly praised kids club with children loving the activities and making new friends. Additionally, the entertainment is thoughtfully run and caters to all ages, making it a strong point for families.

The facilities are designed with families in mind. There are numerous areas where kids can use pool floats and the resort has an impeccable layout that includes many spaces for rest and relaxation.

The staff's professionalism and friendliness create a welcoming, family-oriented environment. Guests frequently note the exceptional service and the staff's enthusiasm, contributing to a very pleasant and enjoyable stay.

Adriana Beach Resort provides a 5-star experience for children with many attractions to keep them entertained. Its family-friendly animators and programs ensure that both parents and kids have a great time, making the resort a fantastic setting for a memorable family vacation. For those seeking a peaceful retreat, however, the numerous children present might suggest looking elsewhere. Overall, it's a top choice for family holidays, offering a perfect blend of fun and relaxation.

Golf
The guest reviews of AP Adriana Beach Resort suggest that the nearby golf facilities receive generally favorable comments with the term "magnificent" highlighting the experience for some visitors. However, there are notes about the need for maintenance on the golf courses and some guests felt the facilities were not worth the extra cost. While mini golf is available on-site, it did not receive much attention in the reviews. Guests noted that having a car would be beneficial for reaching the golf courses. Overall, the golf amenities are praised, but there are mixed opinions regarding their value and condition.

4 Star
AP Adriana Beach Resort offers a mixed experience for its guests with a strong emphasis on family-friendly amenities and activities. Many reviews highlight that the resort is incredible for families, providing a perfect setting for children and family vacations. Guests frequently commend the cleanliness of the complex, describing it as very clean and approving the overall food quality, which is in line with a four-star standard. The friendliness of the staff at the main buffet also receives positive remarks.

However, several reviewers question whether the resort truly meets four-star criteria. Criticisms often center on the dated condition of the facilities and rooms, which some guests feel are not up to a four-star quality. Maintenance appears to be a significant issue with mentions of the resort needing urgent renovation and better upkeep. The bedding and room conditions are frequently cited as unworthy of a four-star rating.

Services provided by the resort garner varied reactions. While some believe the service corresponds to a four-star level, others describe it as weak and not living up to the four-star expectation. Additionally, there is a call for more variety in food and services, which some guests feel are limited for a four-star establishment.

In summary, while AP Adriana Beach Resort shines as a family-friendly destination with good cleanliness and friendly staff, the outdated facilities and inconsistent service levels may fall short of what some guests expect from a four-star hotel.

Business
The AP Adriana Beach Resort has received a mix of reviews from business travelers. While there are a few positive comments about the business facilities, the overall service has been described as weak for a 4-star hotel. On the plus side, the resort offers business meeting rooms and business areas that make it somewhat business friendly. Additionally, the preserved natural surroundings add a pleasant touch, creating a harmonious environment for work and relaxation. Despite no specific business issues being mentioned, the resort might still appeal as a paradise for those balancing work with leisure activities, such as lounging by the pool or enjoying some music.

Accessible
AP Adriana Beach Resort offers mixed accessibility features for guests with disabilities. On the bright side, the hotel has accessible rooms and services, ensuring that certain aspects of the stay are accommodating. For those without mobility issues, the resort policies work well and the resort is accessible at any time.

However, there are notable challenges. Elevator access is limited and some guests found the layout a bit uncomfortable for individuals with reduced mobility. This becomes more evident as family rooms are located far from the main club areas, requiring guests to cross a road. This setup could be daunting for users with mobility problems. Moreover, access to the beach is particularly difficult, posing a challenge for both those with mobility issues and small children.

In summary, while the hotel provides some accessible amenities, it is not particularly well-suited for guests with moderate to severe mobility issues. Potential visitors should carefully consider these factors before booking.

Heated Pool
The heated pool at AP Adriana Beach Resort has received mixed feedback from guests. While many expressed a desire for the outdoor pools to be heated, some reported that the heated pool was either not working or closed during their stay. There is a clear preference for a heated swimming option and improvements in this area could enhance the resort experience. However, the lack of a heated pool at times did leave some guests wanting more in terms of amenities.

Outdoor Pool
AP Adriana Beach Resort boasts a variety of large, clean and nicely maintained swimming pools set against beautiful, wooded surroundings. Guests appreciate the wonderful larger family pool and the quieter smaller pools that offer a more relaxed atmosphere. Several pools are scattered across the resort, making it easy to find a spot to enjoy with plenty of sun loungers available.

However, the outdoor pools have garnered mixed reviews regarding their temperature with numerous guests noting that they are not heated and can be incredibly cold. This can be inconvenient, especially outside of the very hot summer weather, although some find it manageable during peak heat. The main pool can get chaotic and noisy due to entertainment and activities, making it difficult to find shade.

Despite these issues, many guests highlight the spacious area near the grill restaurant and the cleanly maintained facilities as notable positives. Overall, the outdoor pool areas and their surroundings receive favorable comments for their pleasant and picturesque ambiance, even though improvements in heating and cleanliness are suggested by some guests.

Indoor Pool
The indoor pool at AP Adriana Beach Resort appears to be a point of disappointment for many guests. Despite being a potentially excellent facility, numerous reviews suggest that it has been closed for years and is frequently unavailable due to renovations, offseason adjustments or COVID-19 restrictions. There are references to the indoor pool being closed most of the time with rare exceptions on weekends. When accessible, the indoor pool receives positive mentions for being clean and maintaining a good temperature, suggesting it could be a valuable asset. However, its consistent unavailability seems to overshadow its benefits, leading to a generally negative impression among the guests.

Luxury
AP Adriana Beach Resort offers a visually stunning and enjoyable stay, winning high marks for its aesthetic appeal and unbeatable price-performance ratio. The staff receives consistently high praise for their excellent service, ensuring guests feel well taken care of. The resort itself is noted for its impressive leisure facilities, which cater to a wide range of activities for both adults and children, adding a touch of luxury to family vacations. The overall environment is luxurious with the hotel grounds and rooms maintaining a high standard of beauty and comfort.

However, certain aspects of the resort do not meet the expectations of a 4-star hotel. Some guests mentioned a lack of luxury features and variety in the food offered. Though the all-inclusive deal was a highlight, providing comprehensive access to facilities and services, the food quality only met an acceptable standard rather than an exceptional one expected from a hotel of this category. Despite these drawbacks, many find the hotel to be a great value for the price, particularly appreciating the great resort facilities and luxury services provided.

Romantic
Nestled in a beautifully quiet environment, AP Adriana Beach Resort stands out as a perfect romantic getaway, particularly for couples seeking a peaceful and relaxing escape. The resort is lauded for its serene and relaxing location, marked by a harmonious blend of green nature and beach. Romantic alleys add to the charm, creating a beautiful spot ideal for disconnecting and unwinding.

The resort's luxury accommodations and spectacular location offer 100% relaxation and fun, along with excellent organizational and cleanliness standards, ensuring a comfortable stay. Guests have highlighted the romantic atmosphere, ideal for those looking to celebrate special moments such as anniversaries.

Despite a few negative comments regarding romantic experiences, such as the lack of double bed rooms, the resort's quiet and isolated nature lends itself well as a romantic retreat. While the main areas are vibrant with music and activities, allowing guests to choose between lively and quiet environments, some find the areas outside the main resort less romantic.

Overall, AP Adriana Beach Resort provides a magnificent space where the fresh air and surrounding nature create an excellent backdrop for a fantastically romantic stay.
