Overall Ratings & Reviews The Navigator - Solaqua

A fairly basic hotel. Quiet, tidy with simple furnishings. The staff are fine I assume, apart from someone pottering away in reception we didn’t really see any. The bar is small, slow and always queued. It wasn’t the 4 star I was expecting, but it served the purpose. At least there weren’t any rowdy stag or hen parties that plagued other hotels.

Good overall but not like pics

Property modern, clean and quiet. Staff really friendly.

Stayed one night and couldn’t complain.

Nice firm beds. Clean room

Spacious room with well equipped kitchen in a convenient location

Nice hotel, january not the time to go to Portugal but found this hotel comfortable, about a 15 minute walk from old town, shopping centre near bye which does food and a mcdonalds not too far away. Old town was mainly closed, there were 350000 there new year apparently.

Polite staff

The rooms feel outdated. This must have been a great hotel years ago but it is an OK property today. I don’t think think it is worth the price paid.

Friendliness of staff. Rooms cleaning available every day. Poolside activities.

Unique spot close to everything. Disappointed free advertised breakfast not available, restaurant not open, bar opened March 1st. Pool outdoors not open. Staff very attentive, responsive, helpful.

Staff very helpful a beautuful hotel only problem the restaurant was closed

The staff are super friendly and worked very hard to make it a great stay for their guest. We stayed in off season but I recommend this hotel for a great sleep very close to a grocery store. Indoor pool was about 27.5 degree which was cool when you first get in but you can stay in for a couple hours.

Walkable to old town, really clean hotel and friendly staff. The beds were really comfy and we slept well every night. The little kitchen is fine for small snacks. We didn't use it except the fridge for drinks which was handy to have. The Wi-Fi was free and really good. The pool bar was expensive for beers although we did use it for convenience but after a day or so we decided to go to the supermarket across the road for drinks and snacks and we noticed a lot of people doing the same. It was our 10 year anniversary and reception bought us a bottle of champagne to our room which was very well received. The hotel has a spa with very reasonable prices, it also offers excursions bookable at reception. It offers a shuttle into town every hour free of charge which we didn't find out until our last day and 2 taxis a day later.. Room service is available at a small charge too. You can also borrow a iron from reception and the safe is charged per day and has a 10 euro deposit required. The hair dryers in the room are really good! Tip - make sure you use the card on your door for cleaning required or DND as we had a maid walk in on us twice we had forgotten to use it! 😆

Better than expected, location is perfect, nice and quiet in the evening time.

When we arrived the gentleman who checked us in was very polite and professional. The room was lovely and clean. However the only thing that lets the hotel down a little is the blonde haired lady on reception she’s not very pleasant to deal with she’s abrupt, rolls her eyes and most defiantly doesn’t make u feel like she is willing to help. But all other staff seemed to go over and beyond to help. So maybe she could brush up on her customer care a little. I noticed she was abrupt to other guests as well. Would go back but just hope we don’t have to deal with that lady.

Wifi is not included and buying hotspot cards for very poor wifi is something that can be fixed very easily. Except for this one issue, a nice hotel, clean and great location .

good position close to old town close to hyper market very helpful staff very clean

Nice big clean apartments - pool area nice. Good indoor pool but very warm! Good food and drink prices average. Hugh local supermarket at end of road. 15 min walk to old town down hill and the strip gradual up hill. Overall good stay

I really enjoyed my stay here for the past week, the pool was lovely and the rooms were so clean and great air conditioning in the hotel. It is about a 15 minute walk to old town, we did this walk every evening and it was fine, hotel is located next door to a shopping centre also
