Authentic Stories from Diners
What a delicious restaurant in this amazing town. Food was fantastic. Service was excellent. We had: Grilled Dorada and vegetables, sirloin with potatoes au gratin. The seafood soup appetizer is excellent too.
This is restaraunte review. Skip. O Luis in Sitio was closed so we ended up here based on Culinary Backstreets tour guide recommendation in Lisbon. Pricey based on location. OK food. Good service. Overall . . . meh.
We had dinner at the restaurant. My wife and I shared the cataplana of fish, large prawns, clam and mussels cooked in a potato and onion broth. It was delicious and fresh. It could have easily fed another person (and I have a massive appetite). Staff were friendly and attentive. Also they are dog friendly and they gave our little Westie a bowl of water. Highly recommended 👍
We just had the best stay at Hotel Mar Bravo. We are a family of five with older teenagers, and we all loved the location which was the best in Nazare. We found the whole staff here very warm and welcoming. Our rooms all could see the ocean, and were spotless with lovely beds and linen. Breakfast was great, and on our final morning with a very early departure they even got up and packed us a breakfast which was so kind. It’s a lovely more boutique feeling hotel and we would highly recommend staying here!!
The hotel is centrally located, at the corner of two very busy streets, walking distance to just about anywhere within Nazare. There were restaurants and a late night bar in front of the hotel. The staff was friendly. You can park your car in front of the hotel to off/upload then you have to move it to the garage. The front desk receptionist will provide you with instructions and a gate opener. The breakfast was average, it’s best to go early, to access the full selection. All in all it’s a laid back beach place, anyone can enter and leave freely. I didn’t like our small room and outdated bathroom but the beach view was lovely. For a last minute reservation in a sold out town, I was happy.
