Lovely location with amazing views of the sea and old town. Lovely pool areas and terrace to relax Shuttle service if you are unable to manage hill and steps to and from the town

Apartment spacious

Great indoor pool and spa facilities

Pros:

The hotel was nice, with plenty of open space. It was clean, and the staff were very friendly, except for Vanessa in the spa centre area, who was very unprofessional and rude. I would come back again.

Amazing view, steep hill
Pros:

Beautiful view and huge apartment, great kitchen, pools are clean and large and peaceful

Cons:

Bed is quite small for the size of the room. Knew there would be lots of steps but didn't realise a steep hill too, quite the workout!

Très bon rapport qualité prix !
Pros:

Très bon rapport qualité prix. Un super sejour ! Le cadre de l’hôtel est top.
Appartement spacieux et confortable. Nous avons apprécié séjourner dans une autre partie de l’hôtel (de l’autre côté de la route) plus au calme qui offrait aussi une jolie piscine avec transats. Adapté avec un enfant en bas âge.
Bonne localisation.
Petit déjeuner varié.
Personnel d’entretien super gentil.

Cons:

Quelques améliorations seraient les bienvenues:
- renouveler la literie, les matelas sont usés et on s’enfonce dedans…
- les fenêtres/baies vitrées ne sont pas en double vitrage: nous nous sommes faits réveillés chaque nuits par des anglais rentrant de soirée à 1h, 2h, 3h et 4h du matin. Bcp de fetards donc bcp de réveils nocturnes ce qui entache un peu les vacances en famille
- personnel à la réception peu aimable, l’impression de déranger et pas un sourire

Fantastic
Pros:

Absolutely everything about this stay was fantastic with the venue itself more than our expectations. Food variety superbly set out and waiterserves second to none. Well done everybody involved.

Cons:

The steep climb up and done the hill to get to Albufeira town may not be for everyone, but 3 - 4 euros each way cab journey wasn't too bad.
