FAQs about hotels in Albufeira








Sun, Sand and The Strip!

One of the best Algarve resorts, Albufeira has wonderful beaches, turquoise waters and the dramatic, rocky coastline that makes this part of Portugal so special.

Naturally, life here is all about sun, sand and sea. The most popular Albufeira beach is Fisherman’s Beach and you can still see locals bringing in the fishing boats every morning - if you’re up early enough, that is. Tunnel Beach is accessed through an opening in the cliff, and both offer a variety of watersports.

Further up the coast is Albufeira Marina, from where sightseeing boat trips depart, while east of the town is the 9-hole Balaia golf course. On the way here, you pass Arias de Sao João, home to The Strip where the best bars and clubs are found, many staying open until the early hours.

The Old Town of Albufeira is more peaceful, and its cobbled streets house Moorish buildings and some great restaurants serving fresh fish. If you fancy a day trip from Albufeira, the 12th-century remains of Moorish Almoáda Castle in Paderne can be visited for free.

The town is around 45 minutes’ drive from Faro Airport and there is a fantastic range of beach resorts, small B&Bs and Albufeira apartments on Booking.com.

    Fabulous location for a family or a couple break.

    Fabulous location for a family or a couple break. The area can be challenging because of the many hills and steps when getting around. There are lots of really nice places to eat out just of the many square in old town. The beach has lovely golden sand. The nearby caves can be experienced by daily boat tours. Some of the town gets crowded with hen/ stag/ groups.

    Albufeira is a great place to visit as its spread out and has a few different areas to go and see: The old town, strip, marina etc all with bars, restaurants and something going on. On this visit the old town was quite lively with lots of stag and hen doo's which was good to watch! Still a friendly atmosphere down there albeit a bit lively!

    Definitely worth a visit. The old town especially is very beautiful, but be prepared for lots of hills! Plenty of places to eat and drink, great atmosphere, lots to see and do. Make sure you take a boat trip to the caves, well worth it.

    The apartment was very clean and had everything I needed for my two week stay. Stephane went beyond the call of duty, even taking me back to the airport my 2nd day there as my luggage did not arrive with me the day before. He consistently texted to make sure everything was good in the apartment and that I had supplies. The short walk to the beach was wonderful and then the walk on the beach to old town was fabulous. I highly recommend this apartment. Great location; close to shops, restaurants, markets, beach, and host—all wonderful!

    Very neat and clean apartment. Quiet neighbourhood (at least in March). Beautiful views-you can see the whole Albufeira, and the ocean, from both sides of the house. You can see the sun in the morning from your balcony, and the sunset from the public corridor on your doorstep. The house has everything you need. It's 10-15min. walk to the old town and the beach. And the best part -lovely landlady Idàlia. Super reliable and welcoming, made me feel at ease and resolved any issues very quickly. Would stay again.

    Frentomar is a great place, located right on top of Albufeira's beach and in the beginning of the old town. We were 5-10 minutes away from all the bars/restaurants in the beautiful old town (where it was much more noisy than on the street of our hotel). My favorite thing was the location and the balcony which opened beautiful scenery to the city, the palm trees and the sea. The hosts were also nice, check in was easy. Staff was friendly. We had a lot of towels and they also changed them every day.

    The space was basic, but very good value for the price. The apartment was very spacious with good tv and wifi service. There was a nice food market within walking distance. If you don’t like walking up a big hill to get to the apartment from the town of Albufeira, this may not be the places for you. I give a 5 star rating to Suzana who provided excellent service during our stay. She was always responsive to any questions we had!

The hotel is located in the center of Old Town which was great if you wanted to be near the cafés and bars but the noise at night was terrible. Also we had to ask for a kettle to make tea and buy plastic cups, there was no fridge either.
