Gloria Palace Amadores Thalasso and Hotel

Had a lovely time here. The hotel is glorious. A shame the thalassotherapy was not available, half price massages were a bonus though. Had the pool room. This makes the holiday really special. Stunning view of the Atlantic. The rooms are clean, the beds are huge and so high. I noted the cokes have disappeared from the fridge from last time. For the type of room that was a miss. Appreciate small savings need to be made. Food was good. Really liked themed setting, ice cream Mr Whippy machine, chocolate fountain. Entertainment; some were good. Special mention for the Boney M tribute which was really good. The ballroom is a great layout. The waiters work so hard but the system of ordering drinks can be long with 2 senior staff only taking order from a 100 tables. The best bit about the area is it is so friendly, staff are friendly, reception were very good. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

Great location half way on the coastal walk between Puerto Rico, and Amadores beaches. Rooms spacious, and well appointed, only gripe was glasses/cups, and towels weren’t changed on a more frequent basis. Food at all meals was first class, with fantastic choice for all dietary requirements. Excellent selection of drinks on the all inclusive, we’d initially booked b and b, however upgraded to AI as it represented excellent value. The staff were wonderful, friendly, a credit to the hotel. We would definitely come back, simply great.

Perfect hotel and views just arrived back from a lovely week with my other half (both in our mid 30’s) Check in - arrived early at 1pm, room not ready but a lovely lady named Jennifer gave us all the information needed for our stay, an directed us to the snack bar for a drink and lunch whilst waiting. Not even half an hour later got a call and room was ready. Room - stayed in block 3 and the room was lovely. Very big in size, large bed, sofa, balcony was very big with 2 x sun loungers and table and chairs and the views are unreal. Beds were made and fresh towels daily including 2 x bottles of water, sometimes it was sparkling and I only like still, but again that’s just preference the maid isn’t to know. The one thing was the condiment station wasn’t topped up so after a couple of nights there was no normal tea bags but again not a big deal. Pool area - we spent all our time in the ‘quieter pool above block 3. Was clean and again the views were the best. Bar staff always happy, can’t remember all the names but they all deserve the recognition. A lady called Angelica remembered my boyfriends order and had his drinks ready when he came the bar and this was a lovely touch. Never mix of a que. Food - plenty of choice an options, fresh omelettes in the morning were my favourite, theme nights and had a lovely steak one night an a bbq the other, so much choice and cannot complain. Drinks bought to table and poured which gives it that luxury feel. Can also sit in the terrace overlooking the sea which is beautiful when having your meal. The snack bar was my best part, still all inclusive but can order an it’s made fresh so each lunch that’s what we done. The pizza was stone baked and tasted really good I had one each day. Evening - the evenings were lovely, different entertainment each night, we went out a few nights but when there we enjoyed. Drinks again bought to the table so no having to wait at a bar. A lovely lady called Monica welcomed us on our first night an remembered us. I even asked if I could pay the difference to have an ameretto one night an th waitress kindly told me there is a version free on the all inclusive which was really honest of her an that made all the difference rather than just trying to make money. The little lobby bar was great, my other half loved chilling there watching the football. The vibe around the hotel was great, all the guests were lovely an we chatted with many and made friends. Would definitely come again and already recommending to my family and friends as they won’t be disappointed.
