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.

    You can split Albufeira into two parts - Centre - focused on turists and Old Town part - for slow wondering around. Centre is located in Old Town, so You can make two steps away from main street and enjoy quiet, relaxed atmosphere. Town beach is beautiful - large and sandy with clean water. Unfortunatelly The Lift (the one who takes You down from streets level to beach level) doesn't work and You have to use over 110 steps to get down to beach. Food prices avarage for holiday resorts - starts from 15Euro for pizza up to 20+Euro for everything else. Super cheap Port wine to buy in Intermarche (from 4,2E). In general people speak english, so no problem with comunication.

    We stay in an area called santa eulalia it's a bit quite than the strip and old town which suits us we can get a bus taxi or the little train into old town for a day. The area also has bus stops which give access to other areas in albufeira and connects to main bus station. Some of our favourite places to go are netos restaurant , Roberto's piri piri restaurant, robieros restaurant, all have good reasonably inexpensive food and friendly staff, the little cafe deli on the corner of the octopus roundabout does lovely snacks and drinks, the coyote bar and the old house bar have friendly staff and good for karaoke next to a very good Chinese restaurant

    The hotel Epic Sana has to be one of the best hotels in this area. We found nothing that could be improved, as the accomadation, food, cleanliness was as a 5* should be. All the staff from management to housekeepers were pleasant and always willing to help or assist in anyway. Local facilities in the pretty village of ‘Olhos de Agua’ were adequate, if you are looking for a quiet peaceful holiday(no noisy night clubs or bars) which was heavenly for us. Excellent *****

    Th apartment was in immaculate condition and it was very well equipped. Nice extra touches like the smart tv, a lot of storage space and had a great outdoor living area. There is easy access to the pool from the balcony. The apartment is in a great location and is a five minute walk from the old town so no need for any taxis. Very quiet at night considering how close you are to the old town. One of the best places to stay in Albufeira by far and is great value for everything included. Would definitely recommend!

    The location is very good. Based on the main road between the strip and the old town, withe stores, restaurants and bars within close walking distance. There's a Spar store downstairs by reception,selling all you may need for your stay (at a slightly higher price than elsewhere). Staff at the bar were helpful and polite. We only visited here on our last night but wish we had sooner for the darts machine and pool table. The shower was very hot with a decent pressure. There's plenty of storage for clothing.

    The hotel is very clean, modern and in the perfect location right near the strip and a 10 minute drive to the old town. The staff communicate via WhatsApp and you can ask them for anything you need that way. The pool is well maintained, clean and has a lovely relaxed vibe. The pool bar is great for lunch or snacks until 8pm and breakfast was a buffet style which was also lovely. The rooms had a paid mini bar with wine and complimentary water and coffee machine ready on arrival.

    Fantastic stay, this Hotel re-defines 5-star in the Algarve and is up there with Hotels you would find in Dubai. Décor is stylish, fresh and super cool. Vibe is of the scale and all staff are super friendly. Food variety is excellent, of high quality and well priced. I liked the location as it is privately tucked away but still close enough to old town and the main beaches. If you want a high end place to chill relax that offers great value, the Hotel is a must.

    Hotel was in a nice quiet location. It was clean and staff were friendly although we had little dealings with them.Room were made up daily with fresh towels provided. An uber to old town was less than 4euro and approx 20mins walk to the beach escalators down a steep hill. We didnt use the pool as it was pretty full the day we went down and no parasols free. We went to the beach instead. The loungers closest to the escalators are cheaper than the far beach.
