Read MoreHotel was Beautiful and the breakfast was varied fresh and plentiful you could ask for differently cooked eggs etc., lunch we had there was very nice and enjoyable. Hotel was spotless and cleaned all the time.,plenty of loungers and no hogging early in morning.Pool was spotless and very quiet, on 2 occasions there was a large group of loud English. Even though it says pool open 8am to 8 pm the staff take your towels and bags if you leave them at pool after 6pm. The wide area around hotel itself was very unloved and dirty. Never saw 1 municipal person or vehicle cleaning streets. Buildings in area need maintenance. Read Less

Read MoreWe picked this hotel as it is a adult only hotel and we just needed a nice quiet break. I was so impressed from the minute i walked in the hotel, the reception staff were so helpful and the hotel was spotless. I was really impressed with the size and the quality of the room and again it was spotless.The pool area was nice and chilled with plenty of sunbeds for everyone. Great poolside bar with good shower and WC facilities.
The quality of the breakfast was 10 out of 10, great service with a wide selection of both hot and cold food.
Jose who works the bar in the evening is a credit to this hotel. He is a gentleman with great customer relation skills, a true asset. Read Less

Excellent service from all staff. Clean and spacious rooms. We had a sea view balcony.
Plenty of sun beds round the pool and as mentioned in previous posts there are some steps down to a lovely sandy beach.
Breakfast is buffet style with every possible selections. Cheeses, meats, cereal, fruit, yogurts and pastries. Along with a cooked variety of eggs, bacon, hash browns, mushrooms.
Didn’t eat in the restaurant in the evening but did have lunch poolside and that was delicious.
The location is near a few bars and restaurants/cafe style and although the menus are much of a much do shop around for their deals (we had a three course meal for €10.95!)
A five minute walk down to the strip and we caught a bus into the old town one day for only €1.40! (Taxi about €6)
Nothing bad at all to say about the hotel or resort. Going back very soon as was so fab Read Less

Je vous conseille de vous rendre à la plage qui est situé derrière l’hôtel à 5-10min à pied, elle est magnifique.
Vous avez un HyperMarché à côté (5min) et pleins de bars/restaurants.
Enfin quelques conseils pour faire des activités, je vous conseille d’aller à Portimão (Playa Da Rocha) une plage splendide !
N’oubliez pas de faire la balade en bateau pour aller voir Benagil, c’est magique!
Bref un très bon séjour à Albufeira 🙂

Read MoreWe arrived on the Thursday and were greeted with very friendly staff at the hotel. Rooms were all ready, and we had two rooms together which was perfect for our family holiday. On arriving to the swimming pool, there were lots of different groups around. Couples, solo travellers, birthday celebrations groups and a stag do. All people got on, it was lovely to see a group of people from the stag doing fantastic entertaining in the swimming pool. Other guests joined in the throw and catch game in the water. At the start of the evening, it was fantastic to see the hotel put on entertainment, the highlight for us was the life whale entertainment which was on the grass by the bar. Was so realistic and he didn’t move for hours. The second day we attended the beach, it had sun-beds to purchase for a fee and waiters willing to serve you throughout the day. As a family, I was please to see the lifeguards were extremely active! Always running about in their Red shorts. That evening we ate in the restaurant, the veg, salad, cheese and bread roles were something else! We had 3 starters before we moved on to the main, and all for €25 all you can eat, it was perfect! Our final day was spent lazing around the pool. There was no official entertainment, but the stag group who were ever present were ever so accommodating and took song requests and played tunes to suit all ages and created a really good atmosphere in and around the pool. Thank you to the hotel, the staff and the guests! We as a family will book again! Read Less

Suite was gorgeous and thank you so much to staff for arranging room to look amazing, please see photos. Food also wonderful! Only down side was on our last day a stag group checked in and took over the pool area. I work in a behaviour school and know for a fact they were waiting to be told off to tone it down, but they weren’t so they got more and more drunk, and more and more annoying. Security need to nip this in the bud in future if the majority are to have a nice time. Stags apart it is a stunning hotel. Read Less

Very good breakfast, pool area very clean, great pool lots of beds but towels on too many not used, no fault of hotel just selfish tourists. Good area for bars and dining not too mad but "the strip" is very lively 1k away, excellent hotel would definitely recommend, nice friendly staff in the main, some people smile more than others? does anyone know the Portuguese for "Fog" because we saw plenty of it in late June but it did burn off, the path / STEPS to beach can be arduous so take your time be very careful of the sea on this beach has many rocks and is very rough on weak swimmers.

The only two negatives that I could come up with were - the noise from the hotel bar as they are playing music. Some of it we could hear in our room. And the second is that the rooftop terrace no longer operates as it is shown in the pictures.
We also went to a close 5 star hotel for breakfast and other occasion and we believe we prefered this hotel over the 5 star resort. Last, but not least, the beach is very close by and so are the restaurants. Read Less

The hotel is spotless and the rooms are cleaned every morning to a high standard.
The pool area is lovely and your never fighting for sun beds. There's some toliets and showers next to the pool so if you check out and your flight is later you can still use all the facilities and lounge around the pool side and grab a shower..there's also a luggage room too.
The rooms are lovely and the roof terrace is amazing with some spectacular views...defiantly worth a look.
The food is really good. Breakfast is lovely and there's something for everyone even if your really fussy. We went half board so the evening meal you pick from three choices from a set menu...it was amazing.
The staff are polite and helpful and arranged our transfer to the airport no problem at all.
The beach is exsessable from the back gate near the pool you have to use your key card which is a good thing. You simply follow the road down to some steps then your on the beautiful beach.
The strip is literally 5 minutes up the road where your find bars and restaurants galore.
I'm sad to be going home but I will 100% be staying here again...it was just lovely. Read Less

It’s an excellent modern hotel in a fantastic location. We weren’t disturbed by any noise, and the hotel is set back far enough away from the strip, however it’s only less than a 10 minute walk. There are some really nice bars and restaurants within a few minutes walk of the hotel, including an Italian and a Tappenyaki. The hotel bedroom was spacious and clean and the double bed was massive and comfortable. There was an excellent choice at breakfast and there was a slight variation each day of some of the pastries and hot food. We had a hire car and there was always ample parking at the front of the hotel. I can’t recommend this hotel highly enough and we will certainly be visiting it again in the future. Read Less

Read MoreHi, just driven back from Portugal as we live in Spain and have been staying with friends of ours at this Hotel o a B&B basis. Plus Points, Free Wifi, Free Parking, Free Safe, Excellent Choice for Breakfast, Free Green Pool Towels. excellent Staff. Downside, NOISE try and get your accommodation overlooking the Pool and not Roadside. as over the road and the surrounding area around the Hotel are Holiday Apartments, as this Hotel is close to what is known as the Strip in New Town it attracts lots of young Lads and Lasses out for a good time and have complete disregard for people asleep as they shout and scream to each other, whilst ambling back to their accomodation in a drunken stupor. The Bathrooms are well appointed with one draw back the Hotel Supports Green Issues, but the Sinks have no PLUGS or a way of filling the Sink, so you can't fill a basin up when washing you have to have the tap running all the time, terrible waste of water. Like most Hotel around the world the Sign at the Pool says please don't reserve Sun Beds, so within the first hour of Breakfast they are all taken and then stay empty for the next 3-5 hrs as people go down into the old town and return in the afternoon nobody in the Hotel Policies them!!! to free them up for other guests. One other problem we encountered was the day the Toasting Machine Broke down, Scrambled Eggs on Bread was not the same, its surprising that a Hotel of this size did not have a back up Machine Read Less

Onto our room 214 city view although I will say still a beautiful view absolutely lovely room took us a while to fathom the air con but we sussed it the room was beautiful clean and very comfortable beds a TV with BBC and ITV a mini bar kettle a bath shower in the bathroom complete with hair dryer the only thing I can say that let the room down was the shower wasn’t as powerful as most hotels I’ve stayed in but I’ve definitely had worse showers the rooms were cleaned everyday and also the towels were too oh and you also get pool towels extra bonus more room in your case and very nice shower gel and shampoo too 4.5 out 5
Dining area we only went B&B so can’t tell you about evening meals but if breakfast is anything to go by then I’m sure you won’t be disappointed the breakfast had the buffet situation the usual fantastic fry up with real sausage lovely fried and scrambled eggs there was the continental variety of breakfast items fresh meats cheese fruits Danish pastries and croissants were fantastic also 4 different choices of cereals fresh squeezed orange juice apple juice sparkling wine teas and coffees just brilliant so much choice and tastes 5 out 5
Pool area again really well maintained clean lovely new sun beds lots of space and sun beds are plentiful if not around the pool plenty are stacked up near the edges there are 2 pools a small swimming pool and a paddling pool both nice to dunk in to cool off both kept clean daily the is a toilet and shower block next to the pools ideal if you have a late flight home to freshen up before you leave
The pool and snack bar is reasonably priced with all premium drinks we tried a few beers and vodka cokes but not much more from here but must say some of the food coming out looked fantastic so from us another 5 out 5
This whole hotel is stunningly beautiful from inside and out every where is kept remarkably clean and the views from each floor are stunning while staying here I would recommend a stroll down to the beach through the security gate at the bottom of the pool area it’s a nice walk down the road and quite a few wooden steps but once there you’ll love the scenery.
All in all we will stay here again when we come back to the Algarve it’s a no brainier this is simply beautiful hotel and situated in just the right spot €5 to the old town in a taxi
10 minute walk to the strip and 2 minutes walk to the nearest bars and restaurants some really nice meals to be had in these local bars try them and see

Yes, they were a bit lad, lad, lad around the pool at points and one of the big guys it group, think his name was Danny, was a bit full on. There was another had the brightest teeth, it was blinding! Had to go upgrade the sun glasses! Apart from that they were great. Crystal being my favourite... he was a bit stiff! But def knew how to make a girl smile!!
All in all great time had by all!!

Read MoreThe hotel was spotlessly clean and the facilities were excellent. Only trouble we had was getting towels for the pool, they should have been in the room on our arrival but there were none there so we had to ask at reception but they didn't have any available so they gave us normal towels. This happened 5 days in a row when we eventually got the pool towels - there seemed to be a shortage of towels for the pool at the hotel. The pool was smallish and very cold and there didn't seem to be any trouble getting sunbeds. Notice some Brits were putting towels on the sunbeds before breakfast which is a pet hate of mine! The location was good - we upgraded to a Superior Double with side sea view which was great as we weren't overlooked and it was quiet at night time. The maids came in every day to clean and make beds. We didn't tend to eat in the area of the hotel as we preferred the old town which is around a 30 minute walk away. There was a lovely seafood restaurant very close to the hotel called Cais ao Mar which was quite expensive but the service and food was excellent. I wouldn't recommend the beach at the back of the hotel as the sand shifted too much in the water, instead use the St Eulalia beach which was around a 15 minute walk from the hotel. We booked a trip that involved a jeep safari to the Monchique mountains and a boat trip, it was excellent because our driver George was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us lots of information, he was also a great entertainer.

Negatives: The price of drinks at the bar are outrageous, not just for Faro but in general. €6:50 for Smirnoff vodka is a bit much.
Also there wasn’t enough sun loungers for everyone use.
Very loud stags and hens which ruined the pool area which is very small! I think we can guess where they were all from!
Overall though would stay in the hotel again, good price and location for what you get. Read Less

Overall we had a great stay and for the reasonable price of the hotel I have to say it’s a great choice of location in Albufeira with all the necessary amenities you would expect or a 4 star hotel.
The hotel is located between Santa Eulalia beach and the main strip in Albufeira, with a short taxi ride to the Old Town between €6/7 euros. The hotel is of a modern design but could probably do with a little bit of TLC here & then with in the room we stopped. There were no issues getting a sun lounger around the pool although busier over the weekend.
Many reviews have complained of rowdy stag/hen groups during their stay but we had no such issues. Although it does beg the question if you are anti larges groups etc why would you chose Albufeira for a relaxing break?
. Food and drinks are good enough in the hotel, €4 for a beer and roughly €8 for a burger although outside the hotel food and drink are half the price.
Nearby eateries are poor, stack them high well the cheap types accommodating stag/hens more than anything apart from a nearby by Italian we found. Id recommend this he old town for nicer meals etc.
Ultimately no faults or complaints from our group during our stay! Read Less

I’ve seen some poor feedback on here that I quite frankly find ridiculous, I personally received comments from 4 couples saying we made there weekend else it would of been boring for them, we received no negative vibes or sign of complaint I spoke to staff and asked if we were ok and they suggested it was good to have us.
The hotel is amazing the staff exceptional and the couples there didn’t prevent our enjoyment
I give this hotel the complete thumbs up
If people are anti groups they should ask the right questions of the hotels before they book unless they just prefer to have something to complain about

Read MoreMy girlfriend and I booked this hotel back in November for a relaxing 10 day break. The hotel, staff, facilities, bedroom, cleanliness , breakfast quality and choice were all impeccable. Nice food and drinks from the poolside bar; these were a bit expensive however and So were the drinks at the indoor bar too.
Beautiful views from the roof terrace which I would highly recommend going up to have a look. Good location of the hotel , 2 minute walk from the beach via the back gate in the pool area. The beach directly beneath the hotel isn’t as good as the one further along to the right nearer to Albuferia with all the water sport activities. Bedrooms were cleaned and beds made to a spotless standard every day and bathroom towels were replenished along with clean drinking glasses etc. 30 minute walk from Albuferia which is a good location for food and drink. The local strip didn’t offer much in terms of good quality places to eat although we did find a beautiful Italian called “Italian republic” to the left on the roundabout opposite the strip which we visited 3 times during our stay. We also ate at Donaldo’s which was nice along with a pizza place near the supermarket round the corner called Paulus’s pizzeria. Some good bars and entertainment nearby on the strip and in Albuferia. A beautiful ice cream parlour on the round about too, had one most days. The hotel was placed further enough away to have some peace and quiet at night time.
A good choice of excursions to do. There was an excursions booking office just round the corner from the hotel which was convenient. We did the water park (slide and splash) which was brilliant. We also did buggy safari, great for couples, and we did the boat trip to see the Benagil caves which were fantastic.
The only complaint I would make is the stag do / party that turned up on the Friday that were staying for a long weekend celebrating a 50th birthday. They were Loud, rowdy, immature, drinking constantly, messy, blowing the whistle every 5 minutes. It made other guests feel uncomfortable and not able to properly relax. Every other guest felt on edge, it was clear. They are entitled to enjoy themselves but must also be considerate of Other guests coming to relax. Maybe we should have checked with the hotel before hand if big parties were welcome as this could have been a decision Breaker for us. Other than that, a nice stay and we may return in the future. 🙂 Read Less
