Utopia Hotel Aljezur

So this is a strange one. First: the room was clean, the bed comfy, the staff friendly and the AC had plenty power to make the room warm and cozy. The breakfast is very simple but fresh and for the 50€ I paid simply a great bonus. Now: The room layout isn't great. I had only one outlet on the opposite wall of the bed. The room is way too big for white walls a s only the bed and a tiny desk. And the switch for the lights above the bed can't be reached when laying in bed. The bathroom is even stranger. Feels like everything was stuffed into it, making it really tight. With this setup it feels like you jump straight into the bidet when exiting the shower. I feel less would have been way more here (or at least a better layout was needed) Overall nothing major, but it doesn't feel thought through. The village though is really unpleasant. Worst place along the entire Fisherman's Trail for me. Feels like a construction site, the next supermarket was 20 minutes on foot (one way), because the close one is being renovated (I think that was the reason) and there were so many angry dogs barking non stop. If you can find a hostel at/by the beach, if not I can still totally recommend the hotel if you need to stop in Arrifana. Room 7/10 Location 5/10 Price/Value 9/10

Clean and comfortable with breakfast included but very little vegan or gluten free options which is not unusual. However the location is in middle of nowhere and a car is must as you can't walk to anything except few restaurants that are nearby. Even though the address shows Aljezur it is far from the town of Aljezur. Swimming pool not functional at this time as expected.

This is a great place to stay. Quiet area, yet close to a lot of restaurants and beaches. Perfect accommodation if you love hiking or walking the Fisherman’s trail. I love relaxing vibe and natural, recycled decorations and art. The massive pool is definitely also a plus.
