The kitchen was pretty well equipped although it would have been nice to have a coffee maker. The rooms were kept very clean by the chambermaids and we have nothing but great things to say about the wonderful fellows that manned the front desk. The area of Olhos de Aqua is a very quaint part of Albufeira which we absolutely loved. We felt very safe here and loved all the little restaurants in the area. We would definitely stay here again. Our thanks to all the staff!

Traveling through Portugal as a solo motorcyclist, I found this to be a great hotel. Safe parking off street for the bike, away from prying eyes behind a barrier. Facilities are awesome - more space than I knew what to do with. Great place to spend a few days or a few weeks.

Was pleasantly surprised with this place. The staff were very kind and helpful. Was like a little apartment, without a washer though. 1 min walk to the beach and plenty of restaurants in very short distances. Lots of kids/families by the pool. A little wading pool for the little ones too. The bar by the pool is nice and has plenty of options for food and beverages.
