Arrived and met by the hotel receptionist, Olga who noticed we were quite stressed and upset. It was approximately 1100hrs on the 06/08/19 and we explained our situation that we had nowhere to stay and we needed somewhere for 3 days. First she offered us a drink from the bar, and then she apologized for our bad experience with the previous hotel. She contacted her manager straight away to see if there was anything that they could do to help. She explained that she would take us to the booking area where she would try and find us a room. We were so relieved when we were taken to another reception where we were able to book another room. The service that we had in the space of 2 minutes were enough to comfort us, calm us down and be kind enough to book another room in such short notice. We even got 10% discount which was great for us as we did not expect to have to pay for another hotel.
We were offered drinks on arrival, and informed of all the services available during our stay. The room was amazing, very modern, very clean, and we even had complimentary coffee and water bottles which were replaced daily when the maids cleaned our rooms, left fresh towels and made our bed. I cannot express enough how amazing this stay were. The staff could not do enough for guests, and always greeted you with a smile. They really had pride in their work and would do anything to help you enjoy your stay. We felt safe, happy and we were in the center of where we wanted to be. As two young girls in our early 20's, we couldn't ask for anything more.
We ate at the pool bar all holiday as the food was to die for, and when we ordered wine to our sunbed (big white leather beds), the bar lady even brought it to us in an ice bucket, and poured our first glass for us to see if we liked the wine. Again with a smile! I could write for days about this hotel, and how beautiful it was to stay in and how welcoming every single staff member had been, especially Olga who first met us on arrival. Thank you from the very bottom of our hearts, you have made our frightening and disastrous holiday into one of the best we have ever had. Read Less

Room was bright and comfortable. Breakfast was all we needed (with pasteis de nata if you are up early enough). Walking distance to the beach in Olhos d'Àgua and good restaurants right next to the hotel (the indian tandoori is a must try).
The only thing as we advised reception was that we could not control the aircon the second night, so we had cold air falling right on our faces... Read Less

Great Location Newly built hotel in a great location near to the beach, restaurants and bars. Great customer service and a outstanding rooftop pool. The rooms were very clean and have excellent strong showers. Would definitely stay again if given the chance

Our rooms were clean and big enough with a balcony too! We had the breakfast every morning which was good and had enough variety! The pool area was lovely to sit in with an outdoor bar and a small and large pool! It could have done with some music and you do have to take your towels down very early to get a spot because they are all taken by 10am. We had drinks a couple of evenings and a young boy behind the bar was always very nice and gave good service! We were in a good location close to the beach, the strip and 10 minutes from old town. It is very hilly so would recommend a taxi rather than walking. However overall a good stay with a good location to everything. Read Less

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

Read MoreIt is easy to see why the Velamar receives so many excellent reviews from satisfied customers. The peaceful village setting is largely reflected in the tranquil and relaxed atmosphere of the hotel. There are excellent local restaurants, cafes and bars in the local area and two lovely beaches are about 20 minutes walk away. The hotel staff are utterly charming and delightful, notably the reception team, Joao and Mauro on the bar, and the room cleaners. The rooms are stylish with a modern blue/ grey colour palette and very clean, and the included breakfast is very good, especially when you can sit on the outside terrace enjoying the sea views in the sun. We had just a couple of minor gripes. Rooms are just a little too spartan and could be enlivened with some local Portuguese art and ceramics. The room pictures were bizarre to say the least, resembling the kind of thing you get when you buy empty picture frames from a chain store! The sound proofing was great at shutting out exterior noise, but poor at excluding interior noise; in Room 1, at times we were disturbed by conversations by the lifts, through the walls (especially in the bathroom), and noise from the public rooms (glass bottles in the bar and people playing pool, sometimes very late at night). Our main gripe though was, as other clients have commented; anti social behaviour from single sex groups. Though it is claimed the hotel does not accept Stag or hen groups, they clearly do. One group of middle aged women proved to be particularly loud and uncouth during our stay, at times selfishly monopolising the pool, bar or breakfast room. The hotel is quiet and out of the hustle and bustle of Albufeira, totally unsuitable for large, loutish groups who want to party. Clearly no one is happy; the groups who have to be asked to be quiet, the hotel staff who clearly feel uncomfortable with the bad behaviour or the guests on holiday who just want to soak up the sun, tranquil atmosphere and Algarve charm.

The hotel is very clean and modern. The pool area was great, we had no trouble getting a sun bed and the pool was lovely. The poolside bar served really nice food that was very well priced.
We had a superior room that was really nice. It had plenty of room for the two of us, and had a very reasonably priced mini bar, a coffee machine, and a hairdryer. Our room was at the side and although we did hear a bit of noise from the nearby club it was never too bad.
There were some stag and hen dos over the weekend but the security guard was very quick to sort them out if they stepped out of line!
The hotel is well placed a short walk from the strip and a 20 minute or short tut tut ride to the old town.
The only slight negative is a lack of shower and changing facilities if you have a late flight, however the staff did say that if they weren't full they would have let us keep our room.
The staff were amazing, very helpful and friendly.
We had a fantastic time and were really pleased with the hotel. We'll definitely be back! Read Less

The hotel was modern and clean. The Pool is small but for the size of the hotel and the amount of guests it is perfect and looks exactly like the pictures. We had a room without a balcony which we knew when we booked, however as we did not have a balcony it was a bit difficult to dry swimwear and towels, would be handy to have some sort of dryer that could be hung out of the window. The bathroom was very clean and fresh towels were provided as needed along with additional towels that could be used at the beach or pool. if you enjoy a bath however, it is difficult to fill as it did not have a tap only the shower, however this was quite soothing due to the water falling noise. There are two stunning beaches within a 15 minute walk, and a supermarket 2 minutes down the road. Very nice hotel, would definatley book again. Read Less

Room was very small however-just enough space to walk around the bed. Shower was fabulous with a massive shower head and great water pressure. Pool area is lovely and relaxing however we found the music quite loud and could have been turned down slightly. All the staff in the poolside restaurant were very friendly and professional. We didn’t include breakfast in our package and ate here 2 mornings-it was nice if not a bit pricey at €12 per person however to eat in some of the local restaurants for breakfast it was similar money. Coffee machine wouldn’t be to our tastes. The bean bag loungers and indeed the double bed style loungers were very comfortable. We used the spa which we were led to believe was complimentary as we received passes at check in only to be charged €15 each at check out.wasnt worth €15 each-very small area. Hotel is within walking distance of the old town so ideally located however the noise from bar street and the square is heard in the rooms quite clearly. There are ear plugs provided and maybe a lower floor room might not be as bad. We were on the 7th floor. We had lunch in the restaurant on 2 days which was lovely. Would stay here again for the cleanliness, relaxation and location. However if the hotel was busier getting a lounger may prove difficult but your only a 5 min walk from the beach. Also special mention to Oleksinky I think is his name- the bar man at ground level - makes fabulous cocktails and so friendly!!! 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 hotel was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was excellent, comfy beds, nice pool area and the beach a short walk from the rear of the hotel. I was a little concerned before arriving that with the strip being in close proximity, the hotel maybe a little lively, however it was very quiet. We visited the old town in the evenings to eat out, which was a 6 euro taxi ride. We went to 2 local beaches while we were there, which were both lovely and a short walk away.
I would choose a quieter town to visit next time, however if I did revisit Albufeira I would not hesitate to stay at this hotel. Read Less

Great staff, nice clean modern decor, great facilities. We didn’t use the restaurant, but it looked good with good prices. It’s location is 20 mins walk to old town and 5 mins to new town, with a couple of shops opposite, which were also a normal price.
For the hotel and staff, I would stay again, for the people in it and it’s proximity to Kiss night club, I would not. Seems to attract a very young party crowd, and the club does not close until 7am, so noise was a little much, even though we were on a stag doo. There was security to prevent climbers entering the hotel, and also security around the pool during the day, which emphasised the clientele. Defo not for families or couples
In my opinion. It may change in season, so may be different in the summer. Read Less

Checked in to room 315...a lovely room with great view of the pool and sea. We had some bubbly and fruit brought to our room for our wedding anniversary which was a nice touch. Was a bit worried as a lot of reviews mentioned rowdy stags/hens, but we experienced none of that and it was adults only and nice and peaceful. Great selection for breakfast every morning. Back gate which led to the beautiful beach only 5mins away down a set of wooden steps. The beach was so close and so lovely that we went there every day and didn’t really bother with the pool and sun loungers at the hotel. Strip only a few mins walk away (not our thing) and old town a few mins by taxi for €6/7. Loads of really good restaurants actually close by the hotel (Curry Leaves is a great Indian). Staff were all really friendly and helpful (apart from one rude person on phone). All in all a great hotel and would definitely recommend. Read Less

We were upgraded from a small room to a large room when we arrived which was good. The large room was big with a balcony looking into the town. The rooms where cleaned daily and there was a safe in the room.
The top entrance to the hotel is on the 8th floor in a quiet cobbled street. The rear entrance is on the first floor which is on the main street of bars and restaurants leading from the square to the beach.
The only negative as nothing can be perfect, is that the corridor carpets had a very strong smell of feet/wet dog and the music from the street below can be heard in the room. The double glazing does muffle most of it out to an extent, and they supply you with ear plugs. If the air con is on it also helps to drown out the music. Read Less

Read MoreHaving stayed at the Hotel at some time every year for some 7 or 8 years, we have never been disappointed. Each year we have explored other hotels and resorts but always return to the Vale d'Ei Rei. Contempory but with warm and tradional feel. Whilst the quality of food has varied over the years there is always a reasonable choice and the quality and presentation is well above average. All rooms are clean and the Hotel is well maintained. Many of the villas have been updated for thos elooking for more than rooms.
A rental car is highly recommended as whilst there is a courtesy bus to Carvoeiro daily there is much to see in the area and being a few minutes drive to any of the coves or beaches from the inland location some will and do find it a bit remote. On this basis it is not the most ideal venue for families with children wanting to play on the beach from dawn to dusk, although the resort does otherwise provide for families
Breakfast is a full and well presented buffet and extra can be ordered. Outside beside the swimming pool is a superb location for this and with a great view of the maturing gardens it takes some beating.
Well done Team see you again 2020. Read Less

L’accueil fut chaleureux et très sympathique malgré la réouverture de l'établissement le jour même après travaux, le personnel fait de gros efforts pour parler Français.
La chambre parfaitement propre tous les jours, la literie est de bonne qualité.
Le restaurant: parfait! Bravo au chef cuisinier et un grand merci aux serveuses/ serveurs pour leur gentillesse.
Le petit déjeuner est très varié .
Nous avons loué une voiture depuis l'hôtel, Joao à eu la gentillesse de s'occuper d'appeler le loueur.
L'établissement est bien situé pour visiter l'Algarve d'ouest en est.
Nous reviendrons dès que possible... Read Less

Excellent ! Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans cet hôtel idéalement situé. Tout était parfait. Lit king size. Excellente literie. Confort et propreté irréprochables. Le restaurant de l'hôtel propose un menu pour 20€ entrée plat dessert - très très bon.

Le service du personnel dans tout l'hôtel est également irréprochable et le personnel est très sympathique. Découvrir le sud du Portugal hors saison est l'idéal pour profiter et du paysage et des locaux. Read Less

Overall it was a good holiday. Positives were a very clean hotel and the staff were all very courteous and helpful. Breakfast was very good. The location was pretty good although too close to The Strip for us. About a 25 min walk to the old town which was much better. We walked along the main road to the old town but were told about another route where you could walk along the boardwalks on the beach which was much nicer. Plenty of restaurants to chose from. The negatives were not enough storage in our room just a small hanging space. That’s it! So more or less lived out of suitcase. Not enough sun beds at times for the size of hotel. So unfortunately had to reserve our beds early in the morning. Which we really didn’t want to do. Be warned this hotel allows stag and hen parties so this can be a bit rowdy at times. Smoking allowed in all outside areas even where you can eat. Not ideal. Showers ran hot and cold which was a shock to the system!! No courtesy room or shower available if you have a late return flight. Read Less
