The staff was very nice, the hotel is well situated in the city. Important to note that the kitchen is open until 2PM. the cons, the AC was leaking the last 4 days, it was loosing a lot of water while turned on and there were no room available to switch so we had to spend most of the the AC turned off, or to move our beds in the middle of the room to turn it on and not get our beds wet.

Had a great stay at Frentomar. Bruno messaged us as soon as we booked and always messaged back if we had any questions. Staff made our bed and cleaned our room each day which was great. The location is brilliant and we had a beautiful sea view. Would definitely stay here again. Thankyou

Everything we wanted and more for our first stay in the Algarve/Albufeira. The accommodations were comfortable, we chose the top floor unit overlooking the beautiful beach that had very easy access and conveniently an elevator that would take you up and down, which was great after a day in the sun. Also enjoyed the markets close by to get water and beer to cool you down and also some great cafés that offered nice breakfast options or a mid afternoon snack. If there was one negative that I could say it would be the stairs leading up to the top floor can be a bit steep if you are carrying larger luggage, but Bruno was a great help with assisting us with that. Having a communal kitchen available was also nice. The location of this hotel was just what we needed as it was close enough to the hustling bustle of Old Town Albufeira but far enough that you can enjoy a decent sleep. Would definitely go back

Perfect location to beach, variety of restaurants and close to intermarche grocery store. Kettle, tea, mugs, fridge to get the mornings started. Very clean/tidy room. Excellent housekeeping service! Front desk clerk very helpful. Main foyer furnishings are dated. We used the stairs to get to our room, so I can't recall if there was an elevator. There was some street noise late at night which might bother a lighter sleeper. A/C, TV and shower pressure was excellent. We stayed for 3 nights and would definitely return and stay longer.
