We had to leave our original hotel /resort of Albufeira as it was completely unsuitable -so booked this one at last minute -it stood out as being completely accessible, staff are really welcoming and helpful -it is a few hundred yards from the most beautiful beach complete with beach restaurant, beds and good restaurants nearby. The Breakfast Room is excellent with great buffet selection - all round -highly recommended!

Needs updating but great location.
Old outdated room with shabby curtains, no coffee/ tea making facilities in room and no iron available anywhere. Excellent breakfast. Nice communal areas and great location for beach and Marina.

Staff helpful, hotel clean and pool not too busy. We always managed to get a sun lounger. Good choice at breakfast. I was brought a tray of gluten free items including cereal, croissant and bread rolls. Good location for the beach and marina.
Clean and well run property. Handy local bus stop right at the hotel entrance
Lacked concierge to help us with understsnding bus schedules. Above average breakfast offering

We were able to use the hotel's limited free. parking, much appreciated. Enjoyed the lavish breakfast buffet and once dined at the dinner buffet. Very good restaurants nearby. Pools were nice but found the music coming from a resort nearby annoying. The beach also nice with chairs to rent
