Paper Moon Reviews:
'Beautiful roof top on the W hotel. Watching the sun set over the water is a must. Food was lovely and I was well looked after by the server.
Can get a bit windy and chilly when the sun goes down, take a coverup'.

'We had the most enjoyable experience here while staying at W Algarve. First, the staff is absolutely wonderful. Every single person has been extraordinarily kind and welcoming of us. You can tell they care about their guests and that the entire organization supports them. The food is fantastic (we basically tried the entire menu). The zucchini flowers are superb. The steak is fantastic. The pizzas are wonderful. The desserts are outstanding.
Oh and you MUST take the pizza class while you are staying at the W. It’s an outstanding experience, especially for kids'.
