Guest Reviews
Location
However, the bed & breakfast's position, next to a busy main road and a gas station, is a point of contention. While the rooms facing away from the road are remarkably quiet with picturesque sea views, the immediate surroundings might not appeal to everyone. The area around the hotel isn't pedestrian-friendly, lacking sidewalks and necessitating walks along a busy highway, which can be daunting and somewhat dangerous. Additionally, it's situated a bit off the beaten path from town centers and other amenities, making access to restaurants and supermarkets less convenient without a car.
Despite these challenges, the location’s strategic benefits are significant. It is a great starting point for the next segment of the Camino and the property's modern, clean rooms with terraces add a comforting touch. The large supermarket nearby and the convenience store at the gas station provide essential shopping options. For travelers with a vehicle or those focused on the Camino experience, Marinhas Bed & Breakfast offers a peaceful respite with beautiful oceanic vistas and convenient access to main travel routes.
Breakfast
However, some guests find the breakfast lacking in variety, particularly in terms of hot food options like eggs. Others mention the inconvenience of the breakfast service starting late, especially for those on a tight schedule. The breakfast service sometimes garners criticism for being too controlled and occasioning delays. Despite these drawbacks, the affordable price point and the overall quality of service are appreciated by most guests with personalized and gluten-free options available that cater to specific dietary preferences.
Marinhas' offering stands out for its sheer value with many praising the combination of a good breakfast, comfortable rooms and lovely views, all at a very reasonable rate. While improvements could be made in service efficiency and variety, the breakfast at Marinhas Bed & Breakfast remains a positive aspect of the stay for many, enhancing the overall experience in this charming establishment.
Dinner
Dinner services are typically well-coordinated by the courteous and helpful staff, who often go out of their way to assist guests with orders and setting up dining arrangements. However, some guests feel the limited menu variety and quality of heated meals are lacking with certain items such as pizza and microwave meals receiving particularly negative feedback. Others appreciated the large portion sizes and the option to order gluten-free meals.
Due to the hotel's more remote location, local dining options require a drive or significant walk, making the in-house food delivery service a vital convenience. Despite these challenges, the overall sentiment is that staff efforts to accommodate and personalize meal service enhance the guest experience at Marinhas Bed & Breakfast.
Rooms
The rooms boast modern and minimalist designs, ensuring functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces. High-quality bed linens, large comfortable beds and well-appointed bathrooms contribute to the overall comfort.

Despite its proximity to a highway, guests frequently mention that noise is not an issue, thanks to the excellent insulation of the rooms. The balconies and large panoramic windows allow guests to enjoy beautiful sunsets and scenic views without any disturbance.
While the rooms are mostly praised, a minor drawback noted by some guests includes the shared nature of balconies in some "deluxe" rooms and the transparent separation between the bathroom and bedroom, which might not be to everyone's taste. Overall, Marinhas Bed & Breakfast offers excellent room facilities that cater to a modern traveler’s needs, combining comfort, style and stunning vistas.
Beds
While a few guests found the beds a bit firmer than their liking, the majority commend the hotel for its quiet, cozy and comfortable sleeping spots.
