Great hotel!

Really excellent hotel, especially for the price. The room was really comfy and clean. Breakfast was really tasty, lots of options and the pool, although not huge, always had space to sit and relax. One of the servers was a little odd, did a joke scare to my pregnant wife which wasn't very clever, but the rest of the staff were golden. Some good restaurants and beach within walking distance. We like the tapas place down by the beach. Couldn't recommend more

Great location, lovely pool, staff were all excellent, room was spacious with nice terrace. Breakfast was good with lots of variety. Drinks vouchers for towel change opt out is a nice touch. I’d like to have had more supply of water - if your focus is sustainability, help guests avoid having to buy plastic bottles of water. The roof top is beautiful, I don’t know why this isn’t used as the restaurant/bar. The current one is so dark that it’s not inviting.

We ended up staying here for a night after being stranded in Portugal due to the blackouts. We were stressed, tired, and a little run down but this hotel completely brightened things up. The hotel and rooms were lovely, the staff were excellent and we couldn't believe our luck. Thank you for turning our experience around and helping us end our (extended) holiday on a high!

There was a very strong smell of smoking around the pool - think coming from the neighbours. I asked for a late check out but seemed a standard answer no chance - not even half an hour. No nibbles or crisps available at the bar which is strange and easy to fix. Very clean though. Good breakfast. Comfy beds and sheets. A few easy improvements could really make the difference here.

Great location outside of the main area of Albufeira which we preferred as the old town and main areas were too commercial and touristy for our liking. The area near the hotel with beach was very nice with great restaurants and easy to walk to. We had a very nice patio with a view as well. Great breakfast was included.
