Rooms

I stayed at the Vidamar Resort Hotel with a coach tour. All the guests loved their rooms as did I.

  • The rooms were spacious, extremely clean, quiet and comfortable.
  • All the rooms had free WIFI.
  • The bathrooms were large and spacious with fluffy towelling robes and slippers.
  • There were tea and coffee facilities which is not always the case in European hotels so this was much appreciated.
  • The rooms were furnished in a nice modern style.
  • There are different levels of rooms available – Prestige, Premium, and Superior
  • Prestige rooms are available with nature, resort and some side sea views
  • Superior rooms are the same as Prestige but on the upper floors
  • Premium rooms are larger, include some suite options and have features such as balconies

One of the main attractions nearby is the Salgados Lagoon. This is located next to the hotel and accessed via a boardwalk from the public car park.
