Grand Muthu Forte do Vale

Defo not a 5 star hotel-very dated and all mouldy seal round bath. All inclusive food not great. We had to leave a credit card copy at check in and told we wouldn’t be charged- but we were charged £100 after getting home so had to ring trip.com to sort it

The hotel is outstanding. Beautiful apartment. The staff are amazing. You can eat at several speciality restaurants if you are all inclusive...recommended! A big thank you to Marcio and Amdreia, who looked after us at the bar. Andrea, special thank you for the lovely G&T xxx

We just got back from our 5 night short break yesterday. Is the hotel a 5 star? Not by British standards but I would say it is similar to many 4 stars that we have stayed in around the world. Now that’s out of the way, for our review: The good - the room was clean & had everything we needed and more. The cleaning staff were lovely and always smiling. The pool entertainment was a good laugh even just to watch & the 4 entertainers were great. The pool bar tender Christiano (sorry if spelt wrong) was friendly & remembered us each day. The sauna was heavenly after a workout at the gym which although small does have everything you need. The lady on the spa reception whose name I didn’t catch was friendly and always said hi. The main reception staff were helpful & friendly. We went to the Piccadilly bar most nights and the entertainment was great (make sure you catch the sax player he was amazing, reminded me of an Ibiza one!) Vinicius (again probably spelt wrong so my apologies) was by far the best bartender we have come across in our travels. He truly is this hotels biggest asset in our opinion as he remembered us after our first order & had great banter while serving. Everyone we spoke to said similar remarks about him which speaks extremely highly to please so many people. As we had a night flight coming & going we missed the dinner session but they let us have dinner the day we left even after checkout which isn’t always a guarantee we have found so we were very happy about that. The bad - not even bad really but maybe some things (nit-picking really) which we thought we should mention so could possibly be fixed to make this a 5 star :) The pool itself had a few loose tiles towards the waterfall part, the spa needs some updates as it’s a bit dated and finally the bar needs more seating & the plants can block your view of the stage. All of these didn’t cause any issues but as above fixing this could mean the resort is a 5 star. For visitors bear in mind there’s a refundable 100 euro deposit, they refund it when you check out so this just something to bear in mind. Also not all drinks are part of the all inclusive but they had their version of most spirits and the lager was great! From both of us we want to say thank you to the staff for making our holiday so memorable and for going above & beyond.

The show was very entertaining, the dancing people put on a good show and was good entertainment for the show. Thanks to Nirma Cinder Yohandry Leyanna Ines and Lauro

On a first night coming to our hotel we have been welcomed with an amazing entartainment dancers/dj: Leya-su-ines-nirma, Laura, Yohandri & Cinder. And the singer Ines with a voice of an angel. They have been highly involved with the public and finished with showing us even couple moves which was fabulous. They were throwing other dancers in the air and had a supernatural energy by doing one dance after another. I was exhausted after a small slow dance routine they have taught us toight, so you can tell that they were truly professionals 🤌 highly recommend

Great entertainment team putting on an amazing performance: Leya-Su-Ines-Nirma Laura, Johandri, Cinder on the first night of our stay got everyone up and dancing ensuring everyone in the bar was having an amazing time and speaking to the guests after.

Stayed here at the hotel and watched the entrainment. Wasn’t expecting much but after a few drinks the dancers got me up with them and I really enjoyed it! !!Amazing performance!!!! Lauro the Dj And the amazing and fantastic dancers Nirma,Leyanna,Cinder and Yoandry very good show!! Amazing show and the members were very friendly!!

Clean tidy hotel in a quiet area but near to the ***** with bars etc. Facilities are adequate. But the best are all the friendly staff 5 star Had a massage which was contracted out but used there rooms I thought it was not good and had to tell them to put more into it but that doesn't reflect on the hotel Super apartment room 101
