“Estrela Da Luz, a family-friendly resort only 500 meters from Praia Da Luz beach, impressed me with its adult-only swimming areas and diverse dining, including an Indian restaurant called Pashmina; spacious self-catering apartments also offer flexibility. The comprehensive gym, designed by a former professional footballer, and on-site spa add to the appeal; I'd recommend this resort without hesitation.”

I found the apartment very spacious! It had balconies accessible from the kitchen and the living area. Showers worked great and the kitchen came well equipped. I made use of the indoor pool, sauna, and jacuzzi because of the windy weather. I had a lovely breakfast. It was freshly prepared with a wide choice.
