Hotéis em Albufeira

Prós: The property is located on the beach within hiking distance of Albufeira. Our one bedroom unit was comfortable with a small kitchenette.

Contras: The kitchen lacked some basic utensils but was suitable for basic meal preparation.

Prós: Sea views and location. Excellent staff very helpful and friendly

Contras: Everything was excellent

Prós: breakfast, near the beach, view from room

Contras: charge of €20 for indoor pool

Prós: Hotel lovely and staff very helpful and polite beautiful clean beach

Contras: No access to food or drinks after breakfast till late afternoon not much to do during day and had to travel to be able to use beach sport and sight seeing trips so became rather expensive

Prós: A wonderful oceanfront property full of amenities and lots of charm. I went in the off season so it was magical and relaxing. Good restaurants, good food, complete gym and spa and an amazing beach at the doorstep. Really enjoyed my stay.

Contras: The lack of a tea kettle in the room

Prós: Clean,

Contras: Double bed was 2 singles together, indoor pool closes early 6:30pm, staff could have tried harder as their was minimal contact

Prós: Everything was excellent. The area where the hotel is very nice and quiet. The staff are very helpful, clean modern rooms, amazing views, breakfast and dinner buffets are good. The beach of the hotel is one of the nicest you can find Algarve.

Prós: I liked the room, it was huge with a nice balconi. The view was excellent as well.

Contras: The room service system, the cleanness of the dishes and glasses. we were cheated in several things. Valet made an Accedent in our car and even didn't apologize.

Prós: Great location, great facilities and very clean with excellent HELPFUL staff!

Contras: The Bed! The single bed set up is WHOLLY UNCOMFORTABLE!! Please do something about that!

Prós: The food was good for the first few days. Due to coronavirus there was less and less food choice, and on our last day we had a set menu - not 5 star standard unfortunately.

Contras: All facilities were closed due to gov regulation during our stay - this mean we did not get the value for money and felt bored a lot of the time. During this time the hotel did not communicate any changes to the guest, for example, that there was a lockdown and we were only allowed to go out for food. As all facilities were closed, the hotel could have at least given us drinks vouchers to compensate for our stay.

Prós: Location

Contras: You have to pay extra to use Jacuzzi, steam & sauna

Prós: Nothing.

Contras: Day before travel - Rang hotel and confirmed the facilities were open as normal. Arrival- Was told Spa was shut but everything else was open, was told we were upgraded, but ended up in a room that saw no sun for the entire day making our balcony useless. Day 1- Advised that only 3 places were open for food and drink Day 2 - Told all restaurants were shut , and we could only use 1 place to eat and drink. Whilst sat outside with a group of elderly people who were having a beer, we asked if we could have a beer and were told we had to sit inside the restaurant if we wanted a drink. I made them aware of the people sat outside with drinks and was told it was because they had ordered lunch. I asked the people,and they had not ordered lunch at all. Day 3 - After going from 4 restaurants to 1, the only restaurant open then went from a buffet to Al a Carte because of the Corona virus. Which makes sense. But the following morning the breakfast was still served as a buffet. The staff themselves called this a "scam" . It was purely because they didn't want to spend the money on the buffet. At no point were we offered any sort of apology. No gesture of good will. No drinks offered, no compensation for the lack of facilities. We picked a resort because we thought we could just stay in there if the weather was bad. But we couldn't even buy a drink between 10:30-18:30 at any bar. When I raised this with the staff, we were told that this was false and we could've had a drink any time we wanted. We complained to yourselves who were no help, and we feel like yourselves and the hotel were only bothered about taking our money. There was no option to change hotel, and no offer of compensation of any kind. We paid for many services we did not receive.

Prós: Perfect location, great facilities and really helpful staff

Contras: Little slow in getting room cleaned

Prós: Room , food , were good. The staff were caring and friendly, beautiful well maintained property , the spa pool was great , We had an all inclusive package , I was surprised to have unlimited drinks also included in this

Contras: They should look at a more shallow pool for adults where one can comfortably stand inside

Prós: Beautiful property. Nice and clean. Excellent breakfast

Contras: A little bit confusing to get around in the beginning. Very large complex

Prós: Nothing was boring

Contras: Too expensive had to travel everywhere in taxis spent 220 pounds on them no where to eat anywhere except hotel food was OK but nothing brilliant wouldn't recommend it beds uncomfortable

Prós: Always excellent to stay at the palace.

Contras: Close to the beach and golf what’s not to like.

Prós: Loved the room. It isn't a typical, small European shower.

Contras: There weren't enough outlets to charge everyone's phone at once.

Prós: We liked the breakfast buffet. A huge choice of delicious things. And every day some changes. We also liked the only 20 minute walk towards the beach. Using the Disney-Park like train from the hotel to the beach (and back) might take longer.

Contras: The hotel has the atmosphere of a hospital - not cosy at all. Huge lobby, huge corridors, all painted dark brown. But - cosiness is not rated giving stars to a hotel. The room had a very good bed (mattresses) but a very complicated lighting system. Switches with icons. Can be found easily when the lights are one (and you have your reading glasses put on). If not, it is very hard to switch on the correct light (and walking up mrs. by not switching on the bathroom light, but the bedroom light). Must have been a designer that does not stay in hotels him/herself. Tip: use your cell-phones' light to find the correct switch.

Contras: As we are on lockdown and could not go we have tryed to contact them but they have not come back to us and have stopped contacting us

Prós: Lovely apartment, we had a great seaview. The apartment was big, clean and comfortable.

Contras: No swimming pool bar open.

Prós: Location was central for everything

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Excellent room size, staff were helpful & friendly. Exceptional value for money to get a 5 star hotel for £35 per night.

Contras: Indoor pool, gym, spa etc closed on Sunday, only open 9-6 other days. Would have preferred to use beach in daytime & other facilities in the evening.

Prós: Nice and big rooms. Breakfast buffet was excellent, Lunch & dinner buffets rather limited but always tasteful food.

Contras: We reserved an apartment for 4 persons. Two of them had to sleep in a sofa instead of normal bed. Mattress of the sofa was not good. Even after noting the reception on this issue, problem was not solved. They didn't had better qualities for the sofa's. We had all-inclusive but the snacks were disappointing. Only between 4 PM and 5 PM and limited to pop-corn, some sandwiches and cookies. We had much better in the past in other hotels

Prós: Very good location, comfortable,, well equipped apartment. Great to have a washing machine and drying rack on balcony. Easy walk to old town and the Strip. Safe neighbourhood. Friendly staff.

Contras: Needs a more comfortable sofa in living room. But as it’s a sofa bed, they are seldom comfortable to sit on. It’s doable.

Prós: location ambiance staff clenliness

Contras: appliances did not work

Prós: Check in with Carlos was very helpfull and profesional.lovely big rooms and kitchen .

Contras: Housekeeping could be better apartment furniture tired looking and could do with freshening up,

Prós: The pool was amazing, apartments were huge and had everything you need

Prós: Pool area, except from the loud music. Kids loved it. Nice staff. Cool reptile show.

Contras: Over price, but we booked pretty late. Nice staff. Establishment worn down. Maximum three stars hotel internationally.

Prós: Beautiful setting and comfortable

Contras: Ashame you have to pay to use the indoor pool

Prós: Balaia golf village is a beautiful place to stay, very attractive environment, close to a beautiful unspoilt beach, I return regularly:)

Prós: Location ok. The resort itself is wonderful. Golf clubhouse very nice. Good food. Grounds are well maintained. Room service daily, kind of. Met nice people to chat with. Easy walk to groceries, hair salon, nail studio. Bus stop close by.

Contras: That most units are privately owned. The resort has no say on the condition of the place the owner rents out through the resort. This means it is a **** resort but it is hit and miss on the unit you get. I give our unit a **. Although we liked the roominess, the walkout doors, we had water damage, power outages, almost no outlets for electronic equipment etc. WiFi fluctuations.

Prós: The location was ideal for our needs and the facilities just great for our golfing trip.

Contras: Nothing really - maybe an apartment situated closer to the golf course but we had a car so it was not a major issue,

Prós: The apartment was really well equiped, which was crucial because our stay was in times of Corona and everything else was closed.

Prós: Club house beautiful view over the course.

Contras: Comfortable and spacious accomodation. Lovely par 3 golf course.

Prós: The balcony was far too small with no table. The distance from room to pool was too long. The spa and jacuzzi facilities were not clean and there was a really bad smell of bleach or acid. They were dark and the woman working at the spa had a horrible attitude.

Prós: Hotel staff were very welcoming. The room was clean and well presented with a brilliant balcony area.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Nice location on the beach

Contras: Very late check in - must wait until 5:00 pm, then early checkout at 10:00 am. Breakfast not served until 8:00 am, not giving one the option of getting an early start with breakfast in the hotel. Shower head that kept popping out, thin cheap shower curtains. After the shower, slick marble floor was all wet so I slipped and hurt myself. Entrance to hotel parking not well marked; very confusing to determine which barrier to go through.

Prós: Great location right next to beach. Happy Hour 4pm till 8pm. Bar staff and reception staff helpful

Contras: Big Rooms, fridge, balcony

Prós: Location Entertainment Apartment Staff friendly

Prós: Immaculately clean, friendly helpful staff, relaxing atmosphere

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Staff and overall eperience excellent.

Prós: The restaurant was excellent. Food delicious and reasonably priced. Location was very good.

Contras: Bed was large but a little uncomfortable. We got no sunshine at all from the position of our balcony.

Prós: They weren’t open during the whole world being on lockdown but yet refused to refund my money.

Contras: Their greed and lack of logic.

Prós: Unfortunately we started our stay and ended it quickly due to the COVIN -19. But in the short time we were there we LOVED the place! Staff was so friendly. Beautiful hotel. Comfortable beds. Spotless. Talked with a group of people would returned there every year for some 30+ . That says a lot about an establishment. I do hope we get to return so as we were so much looking forward to our visit.

Contras: Nothing! Loved it all!

Prós: breakfast was lovely

Prós: + good location close to the sea + spa area (although needs renovation) + staff was nice and helpful

Contras: - hotel needs a renovation - food was average and ticket system very complicated - I got some bites over the body, not sure whether from room or outside

Prós: Location is couldn't be much better. Right on the cliff at the beach. While staff didn't provide any empathy or support, the manager stepped in and resolved an issue in the way you would expect it.

Contras: Mostly, highly unfriendly staff doesn't make you feel, being welcomed

Prós: I loved the hotel, it's a little bit on the older side but kept in good condition. The location was easy for me to find and get to by car, which had free parking in their large front lot. The location to the beach was great, a short walk down a ramp to the beach. Nice pool settings, very clean and well kept. The pool bar was close and had everything I needed. All of the hotel staff that I connected to were fantastic, very helpful and spoke excellent English. The buffet breakfast was fantastic, lots of selections, that was so nice to have. I had a ocean view which was nice to wake to sunrises and over looking the pool. I enjoyed the many trails that run parallel to the beach, you can walk these trails for quite a ways even into the town of Quarteira, if you're energetic.

Contras: There was not much I didn't like, I gave it a 3 out of 4 for comfort because the heater in the room didn't seem to put out much heat, there were a few nights I could have used more heat. There were 2 single beds in my room bridged together, I traveled alone so I could use any bed, one was harder, not as comfortable so I switched to the other bed which was better, it felt like a newer mattress.

Prós: The location

Contras: A bit dated

Prós: Close to the beach and good breakfast.

Contras: Poor signs for the pool and jacuzzi areas.

Prós: Location , facilities and comfortable

Contras: Slow lifts Food could have been tastier

Contras: Stayed here for 6 days as the country was locking down. Everyone was professional. Apart from the barman. I'm not being to dismissive I'd him as I think he was trying to hard and as he was young just hit it wrong.. The rom was comfortable. The fact that I wouldn't have minded being in lockdown here says something. I would gladly return and recommend this hotel apartments. Thank you to everyone of your staff for making our last 4 days during lockdown the most comfortable it could have possibly been Regards e Nisbet

Prós: Excellent location. Very good value for money. Spacious studio with balcony. Free parking. Friendly staff. Great WIFI. Very clean daily maid service. Spacious pool area.

Contras: Dated furnishings/bathroom

Prós: Restaurants and supermarkets and bus stop nearby Staffs are helpful and friendly Hotel cleaniness

Prós: Great value for money

Contras: Nothing!

Prós: bacus bar and staff were wonderful. nearby restaurants very good Fat Cat's a must. Stews and More brilliant, restaurant memoirs superb.

Contras: The room was shabby, shower useless. chipped water jug broken sockets poor lighting. no decent tv. lager louts in pool bar, drinks in pool bar rip off.

Prós: We stayed in the 2 bedroom suite which was huge with luxurious bathrooms and a huge lounge area! Myself and 4 friends stayed there with an extra bed in the living room which was fine! Restaurant was very nice and lots of drinks to choose from as well as 3 Huge pools :)

Contras: The staff were slightly rude at times but the receptionists were excellent and really helpful to order Taxis into Albufeira etc.

Contras: Poor noise isolation in the rooms.

Prós: The buffet meals were ok, quite a bit of choice but some of the food in the afternoon was not as hot as it should be and the sandwiches were getting quite dry

Contras: There was no entertainment in the Hotel which was a shame

Prós: the bed were very comfortable. rooms spacious and clean. buffets were decent enough, especialy good danish pastrys at breakfast.

Contras: the staff were not helpfull.. at all. (except 2 girls, one at breakfast buffet and one at bar, who were friendly) the man in the spa was exceptionaly rude and sent us in to the spa without mentioning that hats were a nessesity and needed to be purchased with cash only at the spa, resulting in having to get back dressed again, return to room, get cash, return to pool to find the man gone and had to wait more than 15mins for him to return before we could re enter spa. and upon arriving to dinner, the lady cheaking our room numbers told one girl in my group that she would need to put on a jumper as her top was too low cut!!! (it was no more reveling that many other women already in the dining room) she declared this in a very rude way, not friendly or apologetic in the slightest. i have stayed in 2 star hotels that have much MUCH better staff.

Prós: Great staff. Lovely food. Large comfortable room.

Contras: Nothing to dislike.
