Absolutely amazing stay! One of the best hotels I’ve ever experienced. The rooms were not only beautiful but also super comfortable. The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. And the view… just breathtaking! The atmosphere throughout the hotel is fantastic — especially in the evening with live music on the rooftop, which made for such a great vibe. The pool area is also lovely, spacious, and never felt crowded. Breakfast was excellent — very complete, with a great selection of gluten-free options. The buffet restaurant offered a wide variety of delicious food, with a different theme every night, so it never got repetitive. There’s also a super nice beach bar, perfect for relaxing with a drink by the sea. We had only booked two nights but loved it so much we ended up staying three more. Can’t recommend this place enough — we’ll definitely be back!

My wife and I stayed at the Saccharum Hotel in March and were very satisfied. We drove comfortably from the airport to the hotel in a rental car and parked in the hotel's own parking lot. The reception was very pleasant; our room was clean, spacious, quiet, and had a terrace with a stunning sea view. The staff was always very friendly, and the food was varied and delicious. From the hotel, we easily explored the entire island in our rental car. About 100 meters west of the hotel is a small shopping center where you can buy everything you need. We felt very comfortable there and will definitely come back.

We spent 7 nights at this beautifully located hotel and had a truly wonderful stay. The setting is perfect for relaxation and enjoying a peaceful atmosphere. The hotel staff were incredibly helpful and always ready to assist with anything we needed. The housekeeping team was outstanding – the cleanliness of both the room and the entire hotel was at a very high standard, which made our stay even more comfortable. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options to choose from, ensuring everyone could find something they liked. An added bonus was the paid parking available on-site, which was very convenient for us as we were traveling by car. We are extremely satisfied with our stay and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-managed place to stay. We would gladly return in the future!

The hotel is overall very nice, rooms are quite comfortable. Pool and garden very pleasant. Food and drinks served at the restaurants, including the beach bar and the gastronomic one are pretty amazing, although prices are quite expensive compared to other places in Portugal. Service overall quite nice. We were on a mini honeymoon, but no special attention was offered, which is a bit of a shame.
