Dunas Douradas Beach Club

This was our third stay here and it couldn’t have been better. Fabulous accommodation (decoratively perhaps in need of some modernisation!), great pool area, extremely comfy sunbeds, amazing staff - they can’t do enough for you, brilliant position across from the beach. We have had a relaxing and hugely enjoyable holiday. Already looking forward to next year’s visit. Thank you to everyone there for making it so wonderful.

We had a wonderful relaxing, fun holiday here. Our kids loved the pool and other facilities. Our apartment, whilst a decent walk from the club was spacious, comfortable and kept really clean. Service from the team was impeccable. It really felt like a five star experience. We cannot wait to come back.

We enjoyed our stay. The apartment was clean well equipped close to the beach. There was an issue in our apartment and it is something that should be reviewed in all of the accommodations at DDBC and that is window blind cord safety. There were several loose window blind cords in our apartment that represent a potential cause of serious injury to small children. We familiarised ourselves in the apartment and did our own ‘baby proofing’ however others may not or may not notice this detail. As per EU guidance EN 13120:2009+A1:2014 window blind cords need to be secured.

We had my 60th birthday meal with 18 of us on Saturday afternoon. The food was amazing the staff were awesome and the music added to the atmosphere and made it the perfect place to celebrate.Beatriz was so helpful in helping to arrange everything before we got there and the staff were so friendly and attentive.

Have been coming here for years now and gets better every time. It has a special place in me and my family’s heart. The pool is very good and the services available at this hotel is fantastic. The reception are fabulous and help you to settle in and make the goodbyes of this resort a little bit less worse. The rooms are clean and function well. They also have a very good design. I recommend getting a room with a jacuzzi and a room that is fairly central if you have kids. The restaurant is very good and very nice to go to for drinks, a pool side milkshake or an evening meal. The staff from the lifeguards to the bartender to the cleaners they are all exceptional and I want them to be thanked for their efforts. I recommend visiting Maria’s Restaurant which is on the beach directly opposite the hotel and accessible via a gate which is opened by your room key. The whole hotel is enclosed and patrolled by security 24/7 there are also many great things for kids to do such as play on the grass, swim or play many different sports on the grass. There is a shop which sells fresh goods and many different drinks and food. If you don’t want to go to the restaurant each room has a functional kitchen which comes with a BBQ outside. I love this resort and I am definitely coming back soon!

Brilliant Holiday. Thank you to all the staff at DDBC for a lovely holiday. Staff are very professional and friendly, in particular Miguel on the buggy and Anna and Dory at the kids clubs. My two boys loved going to the kids club every morning. Accommodation was very clean. I look forward to coming back.

For anybody who cares even remotely about Nature you should be aware that Dunas Douradas resort is ACTIVELY derstroying a protected nature reserve next to their resort and then lying about it when asked. If you care about the environment at all DO NOT STAY HERE.

Dunas Douradas Beach Club is a first-class establishment in a great beachside location, with excellent staff and a pleasant, laid-back ambience despite the luxurious five-star surroundings. A very well-appointed, tastefully decorated apartment, with a large balcony - complete with a Weber BBQ - overlooking attractive gardens and the sea. Comfortable beds and well-lit bathrooms, with good shower pressure. We did not use the home entertainment systems much, but there seemed to be every TV channel imaginable in multiple languages, and guest-access Netflix. I am actually a little reluctant to write this review, as we were guests at Dunas Douradas, courtesy of a friend who very kindly invited us to stay in a property that he owns (paying only for cleaning), so our comments must also be seen in this light. Nevertheless, feedback - even from "non-paying guests" like us - can sometimes be helpful, so here goes. My primary takeaway is that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, not least because all of the DDBC staff were quite excellent. Friendly, helpful, relaxed. They left a very positive impression on us, from the cleaners to the reception staff to the swimming pool attendants (who were most accommodating in arranging for us to use the sauna). Even in a ***** luxury establishment such as this, one is always dependent on the smooth interaction between staff and clients at all times, and the personnel here were a real credit to the brand. 10/10! The apartment itself was large, elegant, and very well-equipped, albeit the lack of any personal effects (it is not "lived in", so it had none of the usual things you might find in a typical holiday rental - books, games, foodstuffs basics like salt and pepper, olive oil, or coffee filters in a kitchen cupboard, etc) might make it feel a bit impersonal and hotel-like to some people. Maybe this is just us. In fact it probably IS just us, as the apartment's kitchen delivered a couple of amusing surprises during our stay. By any standards, the kitchen is fabulously well-equipped for cooking. It is a chef's dream. It has EVERYTHING, including high-end Bosch oven, Bora induction hob, citrus presser, the whole nine yards. And yet I suspect nobody has ever cooked there before us. I made a large piece of salmon in the oven, but when I went to find oven gloves, in order to take the burning-hot dish from the oven, there were none. Everything else under the sun, but no oven gloves. Had nobody EVER used the oven? Then I used one of the two excellent Teflon-coated frying pans, but could not find any non-metal spatula. There were at least two steel spatulas, but these will happily destroy a Teflon frying pan. Had nobody EVER fried anything in the apartment? It is, of course, possible that they have not, but have eaten out every single day, or ordered Uber Eats. Even so, it might be worth adding these two simple and inexpensive items to the housekeeping list, just in case a future client does want to "self-cater" in what
