Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Quinta do Mel, and would definitely recommend staying here for your trip in the Algarve. It is walking distance to the Praia da Falésia (one of the best beaches around), but just outside the main resort and restaurant area so it was super peaceful. Definitely go for the breakfast (it was delicious with plenty of options), and be sure to check out the beautiful gardens and animals around the property.

We loved our stay. Arrived after midnight and the instructions to get into the Quinta were easy and ckear with a personal note inside. Let's just say that this was a sign to come. Elvis and the staff make sure to accommodate all your needs and then sime. Highly recommend staying here. Beautiful grounds and the breakfast was outstanding.

A lovely stay

Quinta do Mel is a gorgeous farm house very close to the beautiful Praia da Falésia. My wife and I arrived and were greeted (after having a little trouble finding the door) right away and shown to our room by the friendly staff. The building is very quaint, but the rooms are comfortable and tastefully updated. We really enjoyed the in-house tea. The breakfast was also incredible. We will certainly stay again when we return to this area.

Nice - but had a bad experience

This is a lovely setting and would have been a wonderful experience had our room not had a very strong odor (kind of musty). We made a request to move as soon as we got in the room, but they were fully booked and could not accommodate the change. We were supposed to stay two nights and cancelled the second night and stayed somewhere else. Our booking was non-refundable/changeable, but the owner worked with us and Hotels.com and we were able to get the second night charge removed. Would definitely come back and stay in a different room.

Sehr schönes Hotel. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und kann auf einer schönen Terrasse eingenommen werden. Auch wenn es Mitte Oktober morgens noch recht kühl ist wärmte die Sonne aber schon gut so dass wir immer draußen gefrühstückt haben. Auch der Innenbereich des Restaurants ist gemütlich und man hier auch gut zu Abend essen Wir waren zum 4.mal hier und werden auch wieder kommen
