We chose the Magnolia hotel because of its convenient location right between two groups of Golf Courses- Quinta Do Lago (South, North and Laranjah courses) and Vale do Lago( Royal and Ocean courses). It exceeded our expectations from the moment we checked in. We arrived at early morning, much earlier than the check-in time, but the front desk staff checked us in right away. The process was fast and efficient. We had a room on the ground floor, very quiet, and we could park our rental car right in front of the room which was super convenient for golfers. The breakfast has good variety and the staff was very attentive. The cleaning staff was very discreet. The room always got cleaned at the right time. It was a pleasant stay! Highly recommended for a golf trip in Algarve.

Nice hotel with good breakfast,clean rooms, nice pool and gym. Difficult to walk anywhere because of where it's located. It was very noisy because of a rowdy group of obnoxious, drunk golfers that kept us up all night.

Our room was a decent size with balcony. Great shower & big bed!! Pool area was great, just what we needed to chill for a few days. Walkable to the Bouganvilla shopping centre with designer outlets, restaurants and pubs like the fabulous Cheeky Pup!! And a short drive from all the great beach restaurants like Maria’s, Julia’s, Izzy’s etc. Staff were all lovely and so helpful - many thanks!

Hotel was great - you can borrow bikes to get into Quinta shopping in about 3 minutes. Ubers are extremely quick, reliable and cheap to get into other areas such as Vale do Lobo (around 4 euros!). Lovely pool, amazing breakfast with so much to choose from. The only downside would be how loud the aircon was in our room.
