8 of 10 hotels in Praia Da Rocha
Can't say if the pool side rooms are better but we were in room 901 and the road was noisy and a cockerel crowed from sun up till sun down.

Praia de rocha is a lovely resort, it is very clean, and there’s loads of entertainment, plenty of Irish bars. I actually found the Portuguese bars the best value ranging from 2 cocktails for €5. or a pint for €2.
Super Bock their local beer is a lovely light beer. In the Irish bars though its €6 for a cocktail! You usually get a free short in every bar but the only place I found with decent shorts was The Green Goblin it serves stronger shorts rather than the others just give you peach snaps.
I would recommend anyone to go the Alvor it’s the little fishing village it has spectacular food, you can get a Chinese 3 course meal for €4.50, beach was gorgeous

Could not fault the beach.
What can I say? The best beach I've ever seen! Was being redesigned during our stay but the workmen were so tidy & kept disruption to a minimum, unlike Britain. to be honest hardly knew there was work going on. Plenty access to beach via steps or a hill. Plenty rocks to hide behind/climb on/sit on.
A word of warning. The sand gets very hot indeed, even at the start of May.
Lots of lovely little shops & stalls, plenty restaurants along the promenade. Something for everyone really.
Tons to do from the little train chugging about the resort to getting your hair braided to sitting outside watching the world go by.
Must visit Taffy's Bar!
Been so often I should have my own seat!
Plenty to do at night, clubs, pubs even bowling & I'm sure I saw bingo somewhere too.
Have to try the chicken Peri Peri.
Plenty pedestrian only areas, felt safe letting my kids run about as we walked along.
Zoo marine recommended for a day trip. Shows, swimming, animals, fun fair rides something to please even the most stubborn person. Some of the music in one show is very loud so probably not suitable for very young kids.
Gift shop immaculate and very reasonably priced. Pocket money prices to more serious picture prices.
Restaurant was like a huge barn, very airy and bright. Food good value, chicken Peri Peri, spare ribs, burgers etc etc along with beautiful salads.
Also worth doing is a jeep safari into the Monchique mountains, bums get a bit sore tho!
Would I go back again? Definitely!
