Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
A nice enough property , pleasent staff. I personally found the hotel a little isolated from things but if you enjoy a little more peace this might be your place. Nothing really detrimental to say and would consider use again.
Big room!!! Big balcony!!! Bar/restaurant!!! Unbelievable breakfast in the morning!!! Shuttle bus to downtown, the strip, and the marina!!! Lobby is lovely!!! Big pool!!! Great stay!!! Would definitely stay again!!!
At a quiet location, very good hotel. we had suite 435
Breakfast buffet is complete, and a lot of choice of bread, fruits and typical english dishes.
The rooms are clean, but a little bit old fashioned, could have some modernisation.
Airco was working fine in all the rooms
Very friendly personel.
Old town of Albufeira is on walking distance ( 20min)
Min:
I personally found the beds to soft.
We had a lovely stay here.
The breakfast was lovely and accommodated for myself and two young children. The staff at breakfast were all lovely and friendly and extremely efficient.
There were 2 gentleman staff at front desk who were lovely. One particular (I believe he is called Raphael) went above and beyond to help us. He was extremley pleasant and made our stay memorable. Unfortunately there was a female staff member who wasnt as helpful. She wasnt particularly rude but she wasnt kind either. We had a big ant problem in our room sadly. I spoke with this lady at the front desk who almost mocked me in a patronising manor muttering it is a common problem. Like I explained to her (I'm not sure if she meant for me to hear her comment) I'm fully aware it is a common problem however could we maybe get some spray under the threshold where they appeared to mainly be coming in. Common problem or not, ants on our beds, suitcases, floors and even in the bathroom is not a pleasant experience.
Other than this lady and the ants our stay was brilliant.
We'd definitely return here but I'd try and request a higher (not ground) floor room in the hopes of less ants.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property is relatively close to Old Town which can be accessed by driving, shuttle bus (when it's running), or walking. The property itself is dated and bathrooms need a good deep clean or renovation (grout between the tiles was either missing completely or black). Parking was an issue (holiday weekend) - if you absolutely need parking, make sure you reserve a spot with the hotel.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The VIP benefits were great and the staff provided excellent service. I did not like that the spa had many things out of order and they force you to buy a swim cap. The food was also not good quality

Extremely poor water flow from bathroom basin taps.
Poor coffee quality from machines.
Very good breakfast but not laid out in a practical order which meant a lot of unnecessary walking to collect associated foods.
Reception staff need better standard English.
Well positioned in town.
Stayed with family. We arrived late due to flight delay, warm welcome from the receptionist. I was delighted with the room upgrade and bottle of wine, as a gold member. The 324 room was very spacious and clean. It has a balcony overlooking part of the pool area and surrounding ground. Breakfast in the morning had a wide variety, after 9am it gets busy.The Pool facilties were clean and plenty of loungers avaliable. There is indoor pool, I didnt use it. Mainly outside with 2 large pools and 2 small for children. There is a kids play area with swing and slide. Hotel provides free shuttle bus to old town, new town and sister hotel. Nice late checkout of 12pm no need to rush after breakfast. Overall its a pleasant stay and I would definitely come again. Thank you 😊
