Hotel Vila Gale Village Cascais

We really like location and all the amenities offered. Rooms are large and very nice.

Had a wonderful stay here. Clean, welcoming staff, good choice for breakfast. The pool area is lovely with lots of available loungers, kids pool and play area nearby. The poolside restaurant do good reasonable lunches. Less than 10 mins to marina and centre of Cascais easily reachable by foot or bus.

We had a really enjoyable family stay here with Mum, Dad and our 3 year old son and would definitely recommend it, particularly for families. The location is excellent. You’re right by the marina, which has a lovely atmosphere and plenty of great places to eat and drink. Cascais town centre is also only around a 10 minute walk away and has that brilliant Portuguese and Spanish holiday town feel. Lots of restaurants, busy streets and a really good atmosphere in the evenings. We loved it. We tried both beach clubs on separate days and enjoyed them for different reasons. Emma was excellent for food and service, while the smaller beach club probably has the nicer beach and setting. The sea was absolutely freezing though! The hotel itself works really well for families. It has a relaxed feel, there was no fighting for sunbeds or having to get up ridiculously early to reserve them, and generally it was just an easy place to spend time with a young child. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice, although the service could definitely be sharpened up. Simple things like having enough cups, cutlery and the basics readily available would make a noticeable difference. The only area we found a little disappointing was the hotel bar in the evening. There wasn’t much atmosphere or really anything happening, so we tended to head into town instead. Given how close Cascais is and how much is going on there, it wasn’t a major issue for us. Overall, we had a great holiday and really enjoyed our stay. Fantastic location, very family friendly, lovely marina and beaches nearby, and Cascais itself is a great place to spend an evening. We’d happily return.
