Lovely hotel, with friendly staff and great facilities. The general manager is very approachable and made sure our trip was going well whenever she passed us. We will definitely return when next in the Algarve and would recommend for a relaxing break.

10/10 Exceptional

We were a couple on a five night stay in late September 2026. Beautiful resort - impeccably maintained and very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We had breakfast included in our stay and it was very good with a huge assortment or food, nicely presented and very fresh. We enjoyed a cappuccino every morning as well. The gym was very large and well equipped. We did not use the spa area. The beach access was super convenient and was lovely. The ocean was much warmer than we were expecting which was a nice surprise. Underground parking was clean, well lit and easy to navigate with a smaller vehicle. Tip - don’t try and hike along the shoreline from the beach to the marina - it’s impassible near the end and pretty steep.

We had the best time visiting - it was great to just sit by the pool and head down to the beach when we fancied it. The restaurant prices were expensive but ultimately for the convenience it was okay. We would come back again!

Absolutely stunning hotel only 3 months old! The staff was wonderful and the service was amazing (esp Maria at the front desk)! I highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Albuferia.

We loved our stay at this hotel. The facilities were immaculate, the pool area was gorgeous, breakfast was lovely and the photos definitely don’t do the wellness centre enough justice. The gym was amazing as well as the indoor pool area and the spin studio. Would definitely return, every member of staff was so lovely and we had a very luxurious holiday!

The hotel and grounds are superb. However the swimming pools are prohibitively cold, most guests fold they could not swim. Housekeeping did an excellent job, especially Rosie. The gym is great and the spa area was kept clean.
