Gorgeous hotel perfectly appointed and so clean and beautiful. The manager and staff do a tremendous job of keeping everything perfectly lovely and all guests looked after. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else!

It is a wondwrful hotel. However, there was construction work going on such as grinding of cement at 8:30 a.m. Bed was too hard for me and shower was slippery. Tge hotel provided a mattress topper and a shower mat. Made all the difference.

Excelent choice for those who want to spend quiet holidays and don´t have any children that are not allowed. Great pool and spa and a few minutes walk to the beach. Very good service and a big variety of choices for lunch and dinner as well as drinks. Not very expensive having a good value for money.

Nice to stay at a hotel with visible management and staff who really care about the guests experience and put their satisfaction at a priority. The staff throughout all went the extra mile to make our stay memorable and enjoyable. This is one of the few places we've been where we will immediately be planning a return visit.

What a beautiful and restful place to spend a few days after some hectic tourism in Spain and Portugal. Best pool I have ever had the pleasure of swimming in! Staff were so helpful and friendly.
1-night trip

10/10

We really enjoyed the fact that the hotel only has 42 rooms. Also, it is outside of the city but so close to the beach. The staff were all amazing and so helpful. Breakfast was included and it had a huge choice of options to choose from. Our favourite hotel during our Portugal trip.
4-night trip

10/10

For anyone wanting a relaxed and peaceful holiday - this hotel fits the bill. Situated a minute away from a fabulous beach, the hotel is spotless, the staff are amazing -professional and friendly. The food is delicious - breakfast provides everything you would want and the dinners are amazing - love the Sea Bass - compliments to the chef! There is a beautifully maintained pool area with sunlight all day. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and no question that we will go back again.

Very nice and newly renovated hotel. Indoor jacuzzi, outdoor pool. Breakfast was very good. Service is amazing. Even hotel manager walking around asking if everything is ok. Not many restaurants around. The beach is nice.
2-night trip

8/10

Vila Gale is a small hotel in a nice location about a 3 min walk from a lovely beach. I liked that the hotel is not in a busy town but had a more relaxed vibe. Rooms were nice and there is a pillow menu but you need to ask. Breakfast had many options and everything was fresh. The pool area is beautiful and lunch by the pool was great. It is an easy drive or walk to several restaurants and not too far from Albuferia. I can definitely recommend this hotel.
3-night trip

10/10

We had a wonderful experience at Vila Gale Collection Praia. The hotel is perfectly located in a quiet area close to Gale beach. The room was very comfortable and perfectly clean. Breakfast had everything you might want. All of the staff was professional and very attentive in every aspect. We highly recommend the spa services offered. All in all an amazing stay. Thanks to Rita for her exceptional efforts.

Close to the beach. Not enough lighting inside the room. Need more electrical outlets.
3-night trip

8/10

This hotel was very nice, however it was not worth the price we paid when comparing to other places we have stayed. One would not expect water stains in the ceilings and mould in the tub when paying over $300 per night. Hotel was clean and quiet -however they seemed to be low on staff-considering a few staff members commented about just how busy they were. The beach is so close and beautiful-which is a major selling point for sure!!Would we stay again? Likely not given the price and amenities offered.
2-night trip

10/10

A wonderful holiday here. It was very quiet since it is adults only. Great free breakfast, wonderful staff! The pool wasn’t heated and was a bit cold. We wished they had no smoking on the balconies. Our neighbor smoked continuously out there. Strangely there’s no address so finding it was very difficult.
3-night trip

No tea and coffee in room.
2-night trip

8/10

Very close to the beach I found it so strange they didn't give out irons in the room, I landed and needed to go straight to a family event and they wouldn't provide an iron. At least provide an ironing room! Room service breakfast was very poor and I didn't get much of a welcome when I went to the standard breakfast, staff were a bit aloof. Hotel was really nice other than that - plenty of room by the pool.
2-night trip

10/10

All the hotel staff were so friendly and very helpful, I can’t praise them enough. The little things (like offering to bring breakfast to my table) meant so much to me as mobility can be rubbish some days. We never felt that we had to go out and find things to do, just chilling by the pool or relaxing in the jacuzzi was just what we needed. Rooms were very spacious and very clean. Everyone had respect/consideration for each other which made the holiday even more enjoyable and relaxing. We enjoyed it that much that we have booked again for next year for an even longer stay. I really recommend this lovely hotel

Overall good but surprised with inadequate lighting in the passage and room.

8/10

Really great pool area which is the highlight of this hotel. Breakfast is ok, the fresh fruit selection is quite limited. Omelettes/pancakes on offer but couldn’t find the chef to make them. Would be nice if there was a clear eating area outside for breakfast. Room was clean and tidy, having to pay each day for new coffee pods really sets the wrong tone for a 4* hotel, quite odd and never experienced that before. Gym was small but had good basic equipment. Very close to the beach.
