SANA Sesimbra Hotel

Fantastic location, great ocean view, excellent service, and a delicious breakfast. My only concern was with the shower, which was lukewarm on two of my three nights. When I reported it to the front desk, they explained that it was due to high demand at the same time, but this didn’t make sense, as it wasn’t a busy season. For a four-star hotel, I’d expect a reliable hot water supply regardless of occupancy. Overall, though, a great experience with just this one small issue.

Beachfront

Spacious hotel, nice pool and rooftop area with great view, and very easy to access the beach and rest of the town. Staff are friendly and informative and provided proper instructions for breakfast service, airport shuttle (taxi), and laundry service. The breakfast buffet was wonderful with many options. However, there weren’t many easily accessible electrical outlets in the room so had to unplug the lamps and move bedside tables in order to charge phones. Overall, great location and great service and cannot wait to visit again!

The property is beautiful And located right on the beach. however I was put in a room that faced another building and had no view. I would highly recommend the hotel, but please ask to be put in a room. The face is the ocean.

Amazing location and their great staff is what made our stay wonderful here. Loved the roof top pool and jacuzzi. The sea view is well worth it but be careful there are a handful of rooms that face the ocean but have no balcony, while all the rest have them. They are marketed the same though, we asked to be moved when noticed our assigned room came with none. Rooms were fine although a tiny bit dated. Our only complaint is the lack of plugs in the room. We found 2 total and very inconveniently placed. Breakfast was wonderful with plenty of choice. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a short break in a lovely room with a sea view which was perfect and the hotel is in a great location. And the breakfast buffet had options for all.

Very central area, excellent views and over all great experience. Carpet and Bathrooms could use a little extra cleaning.

Great location and excellent rooftop pool. The staff were so helpful!

The photos are deceiving. This hotel, albeit in a nice location, is extremely dated-from amenities, rooms, and some of interior funishings-the establishment is in need of a total overhaul. The photos of the ‘pool’ and jacuzzi…pool does not look like the night shot as shown on Expedia…and I feel this was intentionally done-and it’s only less than 3ft! The jacuzzi looks like a good cleaning is needed. The standard room itself is overpriced (for roughly the same price but with more space and a view of the ocean, you can stay at Sesimbra Oceanfront instead! I’ve stayed there as well and it’s polar opposites of Sana). Upon walking into my room, the first thing you see is a um, disturbing ‘stain’ on the carpet (I have photos) and it doesn’t look like management did any attempt to clean. The property manager should be ashamed and not have left this room to be available! In the middle of the evening, I walk into a bathroom, almost slipping, to a wet leak in the floor. Lastly, one of the bartenders at the pool level was extremely snide and rude when we mentioned that the he beers served us were flat. All he said was ‘it’s ok I tasted and it’s good.’ I guess hospitality etiquette wasn’t his forte. Nonetheless, one can find a better venue than Sana. Not all lost but definitely needs a lot of improvement from the outdated decor and furnishings to some of the staff as well. I did not report any of this aforementioned things to mgmt as there were no other rooms left and I only stayed 1nt.

Best located hotel accommodation next to Praia do California and seafront Wonderful breakfast spread Pool and Cocktail bar terrace is magnificent

The hotel was a bit tired. The staff was friendly and very helpful, but the room had really dirty carpet, so I was prompted to buy slippers to go in and out of bed. The relation to the sink and toilet was a bid odd. The sink counter covered the toilet a bit so you had to slip under it to go to the bathroom. I am 5, 2” so I was able to manage but imagine it can be challenging for others. The pool area was ok, again a bit tired and dirty.

Centrally located in charming Sesimbra. Excellent staff. Very helpful and professional. Its a lovely hotel and arms throw from the oxen. Recommend ocean ciew room

Love the balcony and ocean view

After a small delay in check in we received our room. It was located by the boiler rooms and was quite noisy on the first night so we were switched to a different room with no hassle. The roof top terrace is perfect for sunbathing and great views of the beach. We had the set meal in the evening which was amazing quality and good value for money.

Excellent breakfast buffet and beach is beautiful!!

The location cannot be beat, just steps away from the beach, shopping and dining. The hotel itself was very good but it is starting to show its age. The service of all the staff was good.

Lovely hotel.central location. Breakfast varied and good. Parking too expensive at €17.50pn. Fantastic beach and plenty of restaurants

Great beachfront hotel

Extremely clean and safe hotel right in the middle of the action of Sesimbra. Bed was beyond comfortable. Breakfast is fantastic. Within easy walking distance of many cafes, restaurants, bars and shopping. Highly recommend.

Great location Breakfast was not the best , they need to improve a lot . The offerings are not in line with the Portuguese food quality. Friendly staff
