The stay was ok service was good. The room from the pictures was not what I expected. Room was small and very little room for suit cases. Not what the pictures looked like. That type of room I would expect to pay half of what it cost.

The Magnolia is a great small hotel near to some of the best golf courses, sporting facilities and beaches in the Algarve. Only 20 minutes from the airport, it's the perfect short break destination. The staff are friendly and the facilities good, the cottages are excellent. Well worth a visit.

Good stay
Magnolia is a nice hotel with pleasant surroundings. The rooms are adequate, beds are comfy; though could use better space planning lfor the rooms. wWe were informed a renovation is coming later this year. The breakfast is quite good and the lounge and bar areas are nice. Best of all the staff are awesome, friendly and willing to assist where possible.

The hotel overall was friendly & the service was good. However, room cleaning was missed on two occasions. This was however, put right when raised with management. Access to the two bedroom cottages in which we stayed was a cobbled road, with many displaced trip hazard cobbles and was even worse around our cottage.
