hotéis em Albufeira

Prós: Pequeno almoço excelente. Serviço em qualquer local simpatico e eficiente. O renovado SPA é muito agradavel. Ou seja, tudo otimo.

Contras: Nada a apontar

Prós: Beautiful amenities, friendly service, and great location

Prós: Absolutely everything was amazing, from check in until check out. The customer service is some of the best I’ve experienced in my life...and I travel frequently! Special shout out to Philippe! Thank you so much for such a memorable stay!

Prós: The best service on the face of the earth

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Lovely grounds, very spacious and exceptionally clean rooms. Restaurants and bars were great and staff were very helpful and friendly.

Contras: Absolutely nothing, it was perfect

Prós: The junior suite was spacious and perfectly designed for optimum comfort and luxury.

Contras: There was nothing to dislike..just perfect.

Prós: Equipe atenciosa, educada, alegre, trazendo felicidade e alegria a experiência.

Prós: the staff is exceptional. always happy and very willing to help. great attitude and went far beyond their regular duties. so much to do at this resort. many restaurants and pools to choose from while at the same time you don't feel like there any too many people around. lots of places to relax yet many things for kids. a perfect resort for couples and families.

Contras: nothing.

Prós: Everything was great, the venue, staff and the facilities. We had a great time

Prós: Amazing place , a preview of the paradise

Contras: Add a salt water pool

Prós: Michelin restaurant was fantastic

Prós: Beautiful views from the infinity pool Lovely grounds and very kind staff especially around the pool Breakfast was tasty Lovely room (small apt) Decent spa Pool areas very tastefully designed Nice to have a no children pool but the ones that were family friendly were lovely too

Contras: It’s a personal thing but we found that the quality of food in the restaurants in the evening was not as high as we would expect and generally expensive, but it is of course a high end resort and it’s a question of taste of course. Housekeeping in the evening was a little bit erratic

Prós: Simpatia dos funcionários. Bastante atenciosos, sempre atentos aos pormenores. Pequeno almoço muito bom. O jantar no Open Deck (junto à piscina) foi muito bom. E uma palavra de atenção aos funcionários do bar da piscina que foram impecáveis bem como ao pessoal das toalhas (5 estrelas).No Restaurante Lima o jantar foi também muito bom (excepção feita apenas à sobremesa, que não estava comestível- achamos nós). A sobremesa estava muito dura e muito gelada o que tirou todo o sabor à tarte (foi devolvida quase na totalidade) o restaurante cobrou na mesma. Tudo bem, pedi tenho de pagar, mas ficava bem não terem cobrado. O cliente ficava muito satisfeito com a atenção. E não tem a ver com o valor em si. Mas isto foi um pequeno senão numa semana maravilhosa. Espaço muito sossegado, com boas áreas verdes que convida ao relax. A voltar com toda a certeza.

Contras: Nada

Contras: Não há comida após as 23 horas

Prós: 1. O hotel é fabuloso, um luxo no meio de espaços verdes, com plantas e árvores extremamente cuidadas que nos dá ideia de um verdadeiro paraíso. 2. Quartos e limpeza perfeitos. 3. Pequeno almoço excelente.

Contras: 1. Sugiro que entrem no rumo ecológico e eliminem as palhilhas de plástico dos bares/restaurantes. 2. A piscina de fora poderia ser um pouco aquecida por causa dos bebés, a água é muito fria. 3. O pessoal que arruma as espreguiçadeiras na piscina deve ter mais cuidado com o barulho de arrastar as espreguiçadeiras, parece que faz de propósito para acordar as pessoas que estão a descansar.

Prós: The hotel was modern and facilities very good.

Contras: The only thing that we thought not good was the price of alcohol! We are not excessive drinkers but the price of wine and spirits was extortionate

Prós: Tudo. Ideia do brunch para famílias muito boa. Suites fantásticas. Piscinas boas e espaço envolvente muito bom.

Contras: De ter ido embora...

Prós: Tudo estava maravilhoso.Já é a terceira vez que me hospedo neste hotel maravilhoso.

Prós: A diversificação de produtos, assim como a qualidade. Recomendo.

Prós: O espaço é realmente bonito. E a colocação é óptima.

Contras: Pessoal dos restaurantes e bares são top. Mas os da recepção não são simpáticos nem prestáveis e por 2 vezes numa semana falharam a limpeza do quarto. Tive que ligar á noite quando voltei ao quarto para o fazerem. Sou cliente há 5 anos( desde o início) e este ano eu senti que baixou muito de qualidade.

Prós: We had a fabulous stay, perfect for a relaxing time with an almost two year old. The buffet was delicious, staff were very friendly and our room and view was wonderful. We would definitely stay here again!

Contras: The temperature of the outside pool water was freeeezing cold but other than that, no complaints!

Prós: Acomodação, piscinas, restaurantes, serviço

Prós: O conforto das espreguiçadeiras da piscina, o silêncio e o sumo de laranja do pequeno-almoço.

Contras: O buffet de jantar tem um preço muito elevado para a variedade que apresenta.

Prós: Great location and beach. The personal training staff are excellent. All service staff are polite and friendly and the hotel rooms are very clean.

Prós: Instalaçoes, conforto, simpatia do staff, limpeza

Contras: Algum staff de entretenimento nao falavam português e se os hóspedes não percebem inglês lá se foi a parte do entretenimento

Prós: The helpful and smiling staff. The great evening entertainment. The quality and variety of the food. The service and the suite were great.

Contras: More toiletries in the bathroom normally standard in most good hotels e.g. tissues, body lotion, shoe polish pads, shower cap -all not supplied in our suite only shampoo/body wash and toilet paper.

Prós: Great food and very friendly staff.

Prós: A simpatia de todos os funcionários cumprimentando-nos sempre sorridentes. De volta a este hotel passados uns anos, os quartos foram renovados e a qualidade dos serviços mantêm-se. O Shuttle hotel/Praia da Falésia/hotel.

Contras: De manhã, já antes do peq.almoço a zona da piscina estar completamente vazia de pessoas e as cadeiras todas ocupadas só com toalhas, que ficam até ao fim do dia. O egoísmo das pessoas de que o hotel não tem culpa mas sendo o hotel responsável, poderia e devia resolver esta situação que considero um ponto negativo. No meu caso pessoal eu não vou pôr a toalha nas cadeiras da piscina para marcar lugar.

Prós: Otima localizacao, cafe da manha muito bom, piscina e bar muito excelentes. Funcionarios nota 10 e muitas atividades durante o dia, dentro e fora do hotel.

Prós: Very quiet place and well located to the cliffs and beaches. Second time we go there, and we have a lot of our friends that stayed their upon our recommendations. They all loved it. Staff is super friendly. Be aware that it's adults only, so you must like quietness.

Contras: Not a fine cuisine restaurant.

Prós: Amazing hotel with wonderful staff. Food was excellent, the entertainment was of a very high standard. Bedroom was spacious and extremely clean. All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Prós: Gostamos muito da estrutura do hotel, desde o quarto, as instalações e ao atendimento na recepção (em especial ao Eugênio, que nos tratou com imensa simpatia). Era nosso aniversário de casamento e fomos presenteados com um delicioso vinho e um lindo cartão! Muito obrigado por tudo!

Contras: No jantar poderia ter mais opções de carnes e frutos do mar. Muito simples pela estrutura do hotel.

Prós: Excelente pequeno-almoço; os funcionários mais simpáticos de todos os hoteis onde já estive! Não costumo voltar ao mesmo hotel para ter varias experiencias mas este merece uma segunda visita!

Prós: Adult only, calm and relaxing (other than comment below!)

Contras: Tui pool games which were noisy

Prós: Hired mobility scooter (walking disability). Area outside hotel grounds not suitable, footpaths in poor condition

Contras: area outside hotel grounds.

Prós: Everything

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Stunning Place. Everything you want and need in beautiful surroundings.

Prós: The Resort is huge Family Friendly and very beautiful,i would advice for families with small kids as there everything done to go with strollers,a lot of pines everywhere so when is sunny you can walk with a sleeping baby under pines and enjoy nature.Very beautiful view to the Atlantic Ocean,and the beach.there is elevator to the beach but still you need to walk around 200meters by walk.

Contras: There wasn’t bidet in the bathroom,but this is common problem in Europe and public bathrooms could be more chic and clean!

Prós: Our grand deluxe room was very spacious and large comfortable bed. House keeping 1st class.

Contras: Over priced drinks and meals

Prós: instalações e serviços ótimos

Contras: NA

Prós: Lots of facilities, very friendly staff, lots of pools, sunbeds and a lovely beach on hand. A really relaxing place to unwind with some amazing views.

Contras: The champagne terrace is very popular at sunset and you'll need to get there early on to secure a seat. It emptied quickly after sunset, so you can easily soak in the sunset from the viewing area on the other side of the lift and head over for a drink after as people flood out.

Prós: the room, its location and the restaurant on the sea for the view very efficient and friendly bell boys

Contras: some of the staff is very unfriendly, they ruin it for those who are friendly we had a bad experience at the jardin colonial for lunch upon our arrival when we were waiting for our room -the service was very lousy and the food medium, far too pricey for what it was- these people do not go the extra mile in this property

Prós: - beautiful nature and nice large territory - amazing views - good beach - nice comfortable rooms - good hotel design - very good bed - modern room facilities (furniture, bath etc.) - free large parking - breakfast has a lot to choose - a lot of restaurants/bars and swimming pools

Contras: We expected better impression from Luxury Collection hotel. It is still Sheraton... - service: lazy, but polite staff, very few of them available (sometimes there is no one at all on reception and in the main hall. Or no one responding on the call for 3-5 mins, or no one on the beach or near swimming pools etc.), 5 EUR per room service (your spoon felt down, need new? Yes - 5 EUR per visit. And they will take it away tomorrow...), also they are very slow and you always need to remind. We had a serious problem during reservation (baby accommodation). Only second manager gave us a real compensation. First one was just talking for 2 days... - restaurants. Especially Jakuza. We felt like we have been robbed. Persuasive service and enormous prices. Disgusting food. Some so called “author cuisine” which is very faraway from tasty Japanese one. 2 days there were several spoiled products on the breakfast. (Orange juice and cheese). Fried eggs are overroasted, tomatoes are immature etc - very cold swimming pools. Same t as ocean has. They have been built 20+ years ago and heating was not implemented. But because of that they are almost empty ;-) - 217 room is near unloading zone where smts loud work could start before 9 am (trucks beeping, heavy unloading machines are working etc) - bad sun umbrellas with a strange construction (very small shadow). You need to pay for the first line of sun beds.

Prós: Nunca desilude. Funcionários extremamente simpáticos e prestáveis. Condições excelentes.

Contras: Grande parte dos funcionários não fala português.

Contras: Not eco friendly at all

Prós: Never felt busy. Beautiful gardens and beach and multiple restaurants and pools to choose from

Contras: It was ll good !

Prós: É um hotel realmente 5* Muito limpo, jardins muito cuidados, uma paz...

Contras: Os funcionarios no pequeno almoço nao eram muito simpáticos, pouco disponiveis ou atenciosos e cheguei a registar algumas palavras de má educação quando falavam uns com os outros pois o comum cliente nao é português. Terao sido proferidas palavras tais como fod... ou caralh... inadmissível num hotel desta categoria. Restantes funcionários nao tenho razão de queixa.

Prós: Beautiful location

Contras: Too big stayed in the hotel and had to get a mini bus back and forth for food as too far to walk. The food was poor quality and not much choice for the price. Breakfast was cold

Prós: O bom gosto das Instalações, a localização em cima da falésia, o bufet fantástico!

Contras: Nada

Prós: Location and staff are excellent.

Contras: Preferred it as Tui Sensimar. The food is not as good as it used to be but it is very acceptable. Having a nut allergy I have to take care with my food choices. Some foods such as the fruity bread sometimes, but not always, contains walnuts and nuts appear unexpectedly in numerous dishes, even in garlic bread! There is no food labelling to assist allergy sufferers and it is extremely important that this is addressed!

Prós: O espaço envolvente do hotel é muito giro, limpo e cuidado. Boa piscina exterior e bom jacuzzi exterior. Funcionários afáveis.

Contras: Qualidade do buffet do jantar deixa muito a desejar. A confecção é fraca, embora tenha variedade não tem qualidade. O que é uma pena. A ideia que dá é que tudo está pensado para o turista não português, aquele que aprecia quantidade, variedade e muita oferta, mas não lhe interessa a qualidade. Esta opinião é válida também para o pequeno-almoço. Considero que a zona de piscina interior poderia ter um jacuzzi. O check in é muito moroso, o horário do restaurante tanto para jantar como para pequeno almoço poderia ser alargado. Queria ainda deixar uma nota: a língua de eleição, deveria ser o português, em todos os locais: placas, anúncios, etc. Embora a maioria dos clientes sejam estrangeiros, por uma questão de cortesia e porque estamos afinal em Portugal, a língua em primeiro lugar, deveria ser sempre o português.

Contras: Hotel muito focado para estrangeiros. Animação para velhos.

Prós: Muita Variedade de alimentos, bons sitios de relaxamento, espaços envolventes. Ideal para quem quer umas ferias relaxadas. Proximidade e vista maravilhosas. Piscina interior jacuzzi muito bons para descontrair. Prometemos voltar!!!

Contras: Gostei de tudo!

Prós: The staff at the pool area, bar and restaurants are super heroes. So nice, polite and quick!

Contras: The receptionists were not as welcoming and helpful as expected. Had to call 3 times to get an iron board, the water was tuned off for 3, 4 hours without any notice and was told it was going to be working 2 hours earlier than it actually did. The car service can only be paid in cash, would be good to know beforehand since there is no cash machine at the hotel.

Prós: Comodidade, localização, simpatia dos funcionários

Prós: The outdoor swimming pool

Contras: The food was not that tasty

Prós: O buffet deste hotel é muito bom com bastante variedade, quer no pequeno almoço quer nas refeições principais. Os funcionários são muito simpáticos, prestáveis e profissionais.

Contras: O "restaurante de apoio à piscina é muito fraco, muito pouca variedade e todos os dias apresenta a mesma ementa.

Prós: The food was top rate.

Contras: Evening entertainment .....music. Very very poor. Pillows uncomfortable. Otherwise nothing to complain about.

Prós: Food and service was excellent . The rest of the elements were clean

Contras: Our second stay there were ants and a smell in the room. The staff did try to help but unfortunately the hiccups were still throughout our stay and we decided to live with it . Just minor .

Prós: Alojamento muito bom, com grande diversidade, simpatia dos funcionários

Prós: Breakfast very good. Could use some prosciutto as a meat option! (from Appolonia). Faster service at lunch.

Contras: Beds are a bit too firm. All staff needs to understand and speak English.

Prós: This was an excellent hotel, great location the beach a two minute walk, the breakfast was perfect with a great selection of food, the lunch menu had also a great selection, as we were over for a wedding we did not have a chance to sample the dinner menu, we did have a problem with the room but the staff resolve it by moving us to a different room, for a four star hotel it was fantastic value, spotless, and plus the staff were helpful and friendly.

Prós: You couldn’t fault the hotel it was nice and quiet and the staff were very friendly and helpful

Contras: I have a disability and the pool steps caused me some problems and the jacuzzi to was difficult

Prós: Do local. Muito próximo da praia. Instalações agradáveis e bem mantidas.

Contras: Do serviço de restaurante. Muito lento. No mínimo, a refeição leva 1,5h a ser completamente servida. Há hora de almoço normalmente não está ainda disponível o menu do dia. .. Apesar de alertada para o descontentamento, a equipa não pareceu nada empenhada em melhorar a situação (e teve oportunidade para o fazer pois estive lá 7 dias...). Outro aspecto: falta de estacionamento privativo do hotel. Dado que se trata de uma zona de praia é complicado arranjar estacionamento. Preço elevado atendendo a estes problemas.

Prós: Tudo bom.Outra coisa não era de esperar.

Contras: Adorei, bom ambiente, bom Serviço.Recomendo.

Prós: Tudo

Prós: Charming staff who were friendly and extremely helpful, and a wonderful location.

Contras: Room and bathroom a little tired . Beds far too hard! Improved with ‘toppers’ but not really good enough.

Prós: Everything & everyone

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Great location with friendly staff. Short walk to the beach

Contras: Breakfast was good but chaotic. Slow to deliver cooked food China tea pots always seemed to be chipped. Room cleaning was slow.

Prós: Comida, piscina e atendimento muito bom; principalmente a equipe de catering do pequeno almoço, sempre sorrindo e perguntando se está tudo bem. Acho que na área da piscina deveria ter umas músicas ao fundo porque é muito quieto.

Contras: Não gostei dos carpetes ao chão, causa mal cheiro nos corredores e nos quartos. Preços das bebidas e água muito caro.

Prós: Very friendly and helpful staff.

Prós: The customer service

Prós: Very nice location, nice pool, good food

Contras: Rooms need to be done up and air conditioning needs to be fixed around the hotel

Prós: Da vista do hotel e da localização

Contras: O que gostei menos foi dos colchões do quarto.

Prós: Close to beach

Prós: Anybody who stays here wont be disappointed. Really liked our stay in this hotel.

Prós: Nada

Contras: Tudo

Prós: pequeno almoço muito BOMMM

Contras: preços mais acessiveis

Prós: O local é paradisíaco! Pequeno almoço fantástico, tudo fresco, restaurante Madeira ótimo

Contras: Falta de alguns passatempos á volta da piscina, porquê horário para drinks, para almoço, para jantar no Búzios? Sem horários por favor

Prós: The location was great - perched on a clifftop overlooking a great beach - beach was great for walks and hanging out. Hotel is a short walk from a small village, which has a few nice restaurants, bars, supermarket, banks etc The Hotel was very comfortable, food & drink and entertainment was really good and varied. Prices were fine in line with the standard of the property. Best of all - the staff - couldn't do enough for you - made it a pleasure to stay there.

Contras: Ni issues at all with the Hotel or location. Only gripe from my wife was the steps up from the beach - a bit of a struggle in the heat.

Prós: The food was amazing, the hotel was exceptional.

Prós: Música à noite.

Contras: Só 4 cremes corporais para 3 pessoa em sete dias.

Prós: They should improve

Contras: Pretty much everything

Prós: Very clean and tidy

Contras: Good facilities available in apartment and room

Prós: Great location and plenty of food options for dinner and lunch if you don’t want to leave the hotel. Rooms were spacious and really clean. Close to bars and restaurants but just far enough away you aren’t in the middle of everything. We were a group of friends but great for families and couples as well.

Contras: A friend would have liked to have had a ladder at the deep end of the pool

Prós: Lovely clean, spacious apartment. Beautiful pool area. Plenty sun loungers and umbrellas. Helpful Staff.

Contras: Air con in sitting room wasn’t working so room was very hot to sleep in. Bedroom aircon worked well.

Prós: This hotel is a little gem. It is absolutely immaculate. This is my second stay and would recommend it to anyone. I always stay board only, so can’t comment on the restaurants, but have had breakfast there and food from the snack bar and both are nice. The staff are so lovely, always friendly and will do anything for you.

Contras: The rooms aren’t sound proofed. You can hear everything from surrounding rooms.

Prós: Simpatia e profissionalismo dos funcionários, quarto e comodidades e sossego

Contras: É chato a limitação na piscina interna por causa das aulas

Prós: Clean place.

Prós: It was a fantastic apartment, we got an unexpected upgrade. Very well equipped and very clean. The shop was very handy. It is in a quiet location, but you do have to walk a short distance to the main part of the strip.

Contras: The only slight downside was the private swimming lessons in the indoor pool on weekday evenings. The outdoor pool was also pretty cold.

Contras: O dia do churrasco não funciona bem , na altura da reserva disseram que tinham 2 horários para a cozinha estar a contar , um as 19h e outro as 21h...chegamos lá e disseram as 21h é só o que tem ! Já não havia peixe quase nenhum e as travessas quase vazias ... Pedi sardinhas e disseram que não faziam mais !! Quando disse que não estava correcto e pagava só metade .. Foram fazer ! As sobremesas dão a entender que está incluído , mas é a parte ... Os gelados a lá carte nem vê-los ... Um fiasco

Prós: Great room , clean and tidy hotel, really relaxing Time here , would highly recommend hotel

Contras: Nothing, it was all excellent

Prós: Staff was very quick solving a minor issue with the TV remote control

Contras: Old fashion furniture and equipment. Too expensive

Prós: Do pequeno almoço e de poder usufruir da zona de spa , após o check out.

Contras: Second building too far away

Prós: The pools and beache

Contras: It was a long walk from our apartment to get anywhere which was not clear when we booked it. The pool and beach area could have been kept better during the day. There was lots of rubbish which did not appear to be clearerd away.

Prós: Stunning beach, great resort with awesome facilities

Contras: Temperature of the pool water was chilly. Mattresses in our townhouse very soft

Prós: Amazing resort it was our first visit but we will be back again very soon as the children loved the facilities as did we

Prós: Sossego e privacidade

Contras: Houve um problema com a caldeira no primeiro dia. Demorou bastante tempo a resolverem a situação com o técnico para termos água quente

Prós: We had stayed here previously but it was our first time booking a 2 bedroom Deluxe Townhouse which was excellent in terms of space and facilities. Would fully recommend for a party of 4. Lovely terrace and access to gardens. Facilities and Location excellent. Health and Fitness options excellent - really recommend Pilates classes Team were extremely helpful and friendly. Really enjoyed our 14 night stay.

Contras: Food in Beach Restaurant was disappointing and overpriced. Housekeeping did not replace toiletries despite us requesting on numerous occasions.

Prós: The location, the gardens and the view

Contras: Our townhouse was not comfortable enough to accomodate 5 people

Prós: it was perfect for the kids, the swimming pool, and the beach was excellent, and I loved it

Prós: A propriedade tem potencial ... bem localizada e bons restaurantes .

Contras: Serviço de Housekeeping precisa de melhorias tremendas . O serviço de in room dining é muito lento e muitas vezes os pedidos estavam incompletos . Poucas à atividades para crianças e o pessoal do kids club muito pouco simpático.

Prós: We loved everything, from the close location to Albufeira and Vilamoura, beautiful beach, stunning resort, and clean pools to amazing suite, helpful staff and cats sanctuary. We’ll be definitely coming back

Contras: The only thing that could be changed is access to the playground without having to pay for it/book the child for a kids club. We have a 12 year old and she wanted to just go and play around for a while but we couldn’t get in...

Prós: Tudo

Contras: Tudo

Prós: The gardens, location on top of the cliffs. Variety of restaurants. Gym and spa is excellent.

Contras: 9 hole golf course is nice, but overrated. It can be very busy in the morning.

Prós: It’s family friendly,the staff super nice, I’ll definitely go back

Contras: I liked it all

Prós: Excelente

Prós: Clean, tidy and well provisioned

Contras: Not a great deal for the kids to do in the evenings. The lunch menus were similar across some of the restaurants. Beach access is a bit or a burden with young kids.

Prós: Food

Contras: No floats in the pool

Prós: De um modo geral foi uma experiência espetacular. Tencionamos repetir

Prós: Location, staff and accommodation

Prós: Da simpatia dos funcionários e conforto dos quartos. Em situações menos agradáveis, houve sempre disponibilidade e cuidado dos funcionários para agrado dos clientes.

Contras: A qualidade das refeições face ao preço praticado. O pequeno almoço é demasiado caro e há erros ao nível da cozinha/ refeições que não se admitem num hotel de 5 estrelas.

Prós: Space , views and oprions for eating

Contras: Pools a bit busy and no life guard to stop older children playing ball games etc

Prós: Fabulous rooms, comfortable, spotless facilities & friendly staff.

Contras: Food could’ve been better, whilst not too bad a little expensive for what you ate.

Prós: Very nice hotel and its area... and it’s huge! Great gym very nice breakfast Beautiful beach Nice restaurants Great pools Very clean three-bedroom apartment Little supermarket in the hotel to get simple stuff as milk, bread, wine - very handy We loved the stay!

Contras: - We were driving for 10 minutes around the hotel area to find their reception... the signs were at the beginning „residence“ then they turned into „casas“ so it‘s quite confusing and we asked receptionist about that and she said that we need to complain to management - so,guys, we are complaining sort of :) - Kids club we found very expensive for 70€ a day, with 4 kids it’s too much and also not everyone at the reception knew the rules of the kids club so you had to ask 3 different persons for rules/payments etc... - Not enough stuff in the kitchen to cook etc... 3 bedroom apartment requires cooking for many people so there should be enough stuff for it - Very hard beds

Prós: Everything ! The staff were friendly and customer service was second to none. Accommodation perfect, clean and quiet. Food was delicious. Love this place. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Contras: Nothing to report.

Prós: Friendly staff

Contras: The beach is far

Prós: Great location and territory Amazing fresh air!

Contras: Need a little improvement on cleanness of apartment

Prós: Pretty grounds, luxurious room, good weather

Contras: Rude inattentive staff, cold swim pools, average to poor food quality, very expensive

Prós: The cliffs are beautiful

Contras: Way to many people Beach over crowded and not enough beach chairs or Umbrellas.

Prós: + great facilities + friendly staff + beautiful beach

Contras: - The 'in-site' restaurants are expensive for Portugal. Much much cheaper outside the facility

Prós: The overall ambience of residence

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Maravilhoso. Estivemos nas ocean suites durante a passagem de ano. Suites muito confortáveis! cozinha completa o que é perfeito para que tem crianças pequenas. Camas maravilhosas, almofadas tipo nuvem, casas de banho perfeitas, espaço e muito conforto. Café de cortesia, um plus. Funcionários super atenciosos. O spa é incrível bem como a massagem! Voltaremos com certeza!!!

Contras: Gostamos de tudo!

Prós: Absolutely stunning hotel with an amazing location overlooking the sea. Bigger resort than expected. We stayed for 3 nights. Could easily stay a few more nights at this amazing resort. Wonderful pool areas and good restaurants. The views from the cocktail bar is absolutely incredible. We will come back for sure.

Contras: Maybe not the easiest to get down to the beach if you have a stroller. Lots of steps and the beach is not so “kids friendly” with lots of stones and the ocean gets deep very fast.

Prós: Instalações, localização e simpatia staff.

Contras: Temperatura da piscina interior podia estar um pouco mais quente.

Contras: Lots and lots of very young families with strollers and babies.

Prós: The location!

Contras: The service standard is worse and worse every year, especially the restaurants

Prós: Location and amenities

Contras: Quite pricey

Prós: Breakfast was fantastic

Contras: Got charged for movies we didn’t watch.

Prós: My stay at Pine Cliffs was absolutely perfect. We stayed in a ocean suite with two bedrooms overlooking a small square. The rooms were spotless, beautiful and quiet. Cleaning ladies did an amazing job; they really went the extra mile. More about the property. The garden is super relaxing. I loved to relax underneath the trees in the garden, while overlooking the sea and hearing the crickets in the background. This may be one of the most beautiful and relaxing places I have ever been in the world. Although the hotel can host many people, it still feels personal as there are many people working at all facilities at the hotel. Also, I love to exercise which I was able to do in many different ways at the property. I joined a yoga class which was amazing outside in the garden, went swimming in the indoors pool, went for a run on the beach, and exercised in the gym. It is all possible at Pine Cliffs! It was a very relaxing stay and we will definitely come back!

Contras: It is a 5 star resort, which makes is logical that restaurant prices are in that genre. However, then I also expect high quality which the hotel unfortunately is not able to deliver in all outlets. We went for dinner in the Pescador and in a more cafe style restaurant (I forgot the name). And prices are more than double the prices of restaurants outside the hotel, but the quality of food is not that much better, unfortunately. For example, in the Pescador I order a raw tuna steak and got it very well done. We also ordered a Sole (45€) and it was extremely salty and not very tasty. We mentioned it to the waiters but nothing really happened (expect the tuna they wanted to redo but I do not like to waste food). On a more positive note: the champagne bar had the best views at sunset and drinks: a must visit!!

Prós: location , amenities, restaurants, beach and SPA

Contras: maybe it is stupid thing but it is annoying that the card to access the room, deactivated so many times and I had to go to reception to re activated

Prós: Pessoal e global eperience excelente.

Prós: - Breakfast was excellent; the best thing in this hotel was the breakfast, many varieties from everything, they even had a healthy corner and fresh orange juice. The breakfast restaurant was also amazing (indoor/outdoor on the pool). - Room was very good; we booked the deluxe room with pool and ocean view which was amazing (please check the cons as well for few points). - Location; With respect to Algarve; Albufeira is in the middle of Algarve, which makes it easier for day trips to different Algarve cities. With respect to Albufeira; it is in a very good location if you are targeting "The Strip" and some beaches with scenic views (Oura, Oura Leste, Santa Eulaila) but not the main Albufeira old town (please check cons for additional information). - Staff; they were very informative and helpful, they can understand what you need. All recommended activities and restaurants by them exceeded our expectations. Thanks a lot to all of you. - The hotel works with a good car rental company (Visa car rental) and multiple touring companies, and you can book directly from the hotel. Bonus: Special thanks to the hotel for the lovely surprise; we were travelling on our wedding anniversary, and upon returning from the beach the first day we found a bottle of Champagne, Strawberries, and Chocolate in our room, and a lovely card wishing us a happy anniversary!

Contras: Room facilities; Nespresso machine in the room was not working, and unfortunately was not fixed during our stay. Room condition; some of the furniture were a little bit worn out especially the bathroom counter, but take into consideration that the furniture is new and it is expected to wear out fast since it is a coastal area and the furniture is made of wood, but that was not a problem at all. Location; it is far from Albufeira old city and Pescadores beach (main beach of Albufeira) around 30 mins walking, and there is a hill climb on the way back which adds additional 5 mins. Although there is a bus station 1 min walking from the hotel, but it was useless as the bus schedule is unclear and one time we waited for 30 mins and the bus didn't show up! Recommendation: rent a car or use Uber for transports to save time. Note: Despite these very few cons, the hotel is lovely and we enjoyed our stay very much. We will definitely go back there if we ever go again to Algarve.

Prós: Nice room, helpful staff. Had a pedicure in spa very good. Excellent food in restaurant.

Contras: Lots of noise from lobby area, near restaurant if you are in a room which overlooks pool on low floor.

Prós: The decor is fab so modern and comfortable. Spotless clean. Sea view from balcony was amazing. Breakfast delicious and plenty to choose from. Great location - within walking distance from lots of bars and restaurants on the strip but away from all the noise, hustle and bustle.

Contras: Would have preferred a bigger balcony. No gym on property. Apart from that I cannot fault this place, had such a nice stay and would highly recommend!

Prós: Instalações muito boa. Cama de grandes dimensões. Estética do Hotel muito Boa. Local muito calmo e sossegado para relaxar. Simpatia por parte de todos os funcionários

Prós: Everything else was fab.

Contras: They made our beds but never changed the sheets for the week. Thought it odd

Prós: No smoking on balcony which is not fair

Contras: Not enough smoking areas

Prós: Localização e lugares de estacionamento e zona do pequeno almoço

Contras: Não vi um local no quarto para colocar o computador ou pelo menos algo extensivel no aparador para conseguir trabalhar em condições.

Prós: The hotel left a gift of a bottle of champagne, strawberries and chocolate for an anniversary gift. We were so impressed with them. They also gave us a room with a sea view. Really couldn't fault the hotel, staff or facilities.

Prós: Everything.

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Staff very friendly could not help you enough. Great value and not too far from Old Town.

Contras: Pool needs to be heated

Prós: Professional staff, central location and still very quiet, dinner served perfectly.

Contras: 2 days the music at restaurant during dinner was nice but too loud.

Prós: Lovely quiet hotel, ideal for a peaceful trip yet close enough to bars and restaurants

Prós: Bom complexo turístico.com supermercado,restaurantes e bastantes piscinas. Muito lugares de estacionamento disponíveis, perto dos quartos e aldeamento.

Contras: Apesar de ser em frente à praia, os acessos são difíceis ( escadas de madeira íngremes),que levam a uma.praia minuscula.solução é mesmo ir de carro. Principalmente se tiver crianças. Quartos pouco isolados. limpeza poderia ser mais frequente.

Prós: Amazing place. Lots to do in the complex before venturing out. Beach is great as well and close by

Contras: There was a Coin jammed in place where you put your room key card. Bit awkward trying to get electric on. Not the hotels faultbut a previous guest. Room 304

Prós: o pequeno era bom, a localizaçao , espaços verdes ,piscinas e acesso á praia exelente

Contras: A Internet era bastante fraca, ou estava muito lenta ou simplesmente não funcionava.

Prós: It was brilliant for kids, plenty swimming pools and play areas, the complex had everything you needed, so we didn’t really have to leave. Food was lovely to. Couldn’t really fault anything. Would definitely stay here again.

Contras: It was quiet expensive, and the access to the nearest beach wasn’t great, especially if u have small children and buggies, it’s a bit of a walk and you’ll have to take a lot of steps down to access it. If you do want to do any sight seeing, shopping, visit the old town of Albufeira or go to the water parks you’ll have to take a bus or taxi.

Prós: Formigas

Contras: Eram poucas formigas

Prós: lovely place to stay with access to a stunning beach

Contras: there is no where nice to walk outside of the resort although there are some nice local restuarants. Also while this is a very family friendly hotel there were no life guards at the pool which we felt was very important given the number of small children.

Prós: Limpeza e simpatia dos funcionários

Contras: Não é não gostar mas as refeições em bufete incluídas no regime de meia pensão poderiam ter um pouco mais de qualidade.

Prós: Estava tudo muito impecável! O pequeno-almoço é bom e diversificado. Tem muito diversão e espaços muito bonitos, com várias piscinas e jardim bem tratado. Gostei mesmo muito!

Prós: Ótimas instalações, funcionários, comida,... Tudo 5 estrelas!

Contras: Nada a apontar.

Prós: Instalações ideais para famílias com crianças. Todas as expectativas geradas foram alcançadas ou mesmo ultrapassadas. Voltaria sem hesitar a repetir férias no mesmo local. Absolutamente recomendado...

Prós: Um lugar ideal para família com crianças. As várias piscinas são boas e a das crianças com escor regas é muito boa. A àrea envolvente é espetacular. O apartamento era muito espaçoso e com uma grande varanda. Recomendo, penso voltar.

Contras: Gostei de tudo. O mais complicado é chegar à praia.

Prós: Uma maravilhosa propriedade à beira-mar cheia de amenidades e muito charme. Eu fui na temporada de saída, então era mágico e relaxante. Bons restaurantes, boa comida, ginásio completo e spa e uma praia incrível à porta. Realmente gostei da minha estadia.

Contras: A falta de uma chaleira de chá no quarto

Prós: O café em frente ao mar

Contras: Ouvia-se muito o ruído dos carros a passar na estrada

Prós: Bom e bem localizado. O profissionalismo, dedicação, atenção e simpatia de duas funcionárias : Cátia Mota e Manuela Veras.

Contras: O atendimento à noite de alguns contratados.

Prós: Gostamos do apartamento em sim, da limpeza e da comodidade.

Contras: Da localização... quarto 594 Temos dois bebés e ficámos na ponta mais longe da recepção e do caminho para a praia. O carro ficava numa garagem, que por sua vez ficava a meio do caminho do apartamento. Ou seja, deixávamos o carro na garagem, tínhamos de subir uma escadaria íngreme, à chuva e com imensas escadas, completamente às ESCURAS (isto sim, foi o pior) para chegarmos ao nosso apartamento. Sendo que descrevemos que levávamos 2 bebés de 3 anos (idade que ainda pedem muito colo) podiam ter tido a consideração de nos deixar numa zona mais central (não acredito que tenha sido por a lotação estar esgotada pois estamos a falar de 19 de set num fim de semana de chuva)

Prós: Extremely comfortable beds and large rooms. Most staff really friendly. Food is delicious. Choice of pools. Short walk to the shops. Access to the beach. Secure resort, felt very safe.

Contras: Could do with a refurb to give it the 5 star feel. Sunbed loungers could be more comfortable. Restaurant opening hours could improve.

Prós: Conforto da cama Simpático e acolhedor Óptimo pequeno almoço Boa recepção a chegada

Prós: Da localização, do apartamento e da facilidade de estacionar.

Contras: Não ter incluído o pequeno almoço.

Prós: food ok

Contras: asked for a high floor,we were on -1. room seemed a bit tired. tea making facilities but no milk,when i enquired i was told "but the portuguese do not have milk in their tea or coffee,i think they must have it made with cold water,as the only plug was under dressing table,where you had to go on hands and knees to plug it in (5 star i dont think so).during our stay the tea and coffee was not replaced(we managed to buy milk at the bar).There was supposed to be a free bus into the town(to far to walk on busy road),but due to so called technical problems was not running (is this typical 5 star)

Prós: Location & staff

Contras: Drinks & food are expensive! Lunch in hotel buffet was €30 each! For ‘all inclusive style food’ bit of a joke.

Prós: Good location, close to the beach but also near to night life and good restaurants. Plenty of car parking places, some of them covered. Direct Access to the beach The green space inside resort

Contras: For a total cost of +/-500€ per night, as per Hotel site, the offered accommodations are not up to the minimum requirements regarding quality/cleanness/services. The space/location is really beautiful but the offered services, the quality/variety of food, the outdated villas/apartments and the cleanness of space are acceptable for a 3-4 star hotel. Not a 5* like this one is presented. Pool: (1) Draining around the pool (Overflow) completely filth. I believe they were never washed (2) Deck has loose wood boards which can be extremely danger (3) Small tables completely dirt. Not cleaned even at the end of the day (4) area around pools are never organized (5) The Pool bar closes when the pools are still open. The clients on the tables are not informed about the imminent close and not asked if they want to order something before is too late (6) Only bad quality towels are provide (Some of them in really bad conditions). The pickup location is close to reception instead of pools/beach. (7) one pool without any type of staff support. Rooms: (1) Moisture/Humidity issues in several walls (2) Entrance door with holes which allow to look inside (3) Air extractors placed on WC's are extremely noisy. No easy way to turn them off (4) One WC is equipped with an extremely small shower (+/-70x55cm) making impossible not to permanently touch the curtain (bad design because there is enough space) (5) Hot tub not working (6) Poor set of amenities. Reception: (1) They offer an upgrade, one room apt to two room apt. This was perceived as a nice gesture when in reality was just a way they found to solve a problem they created: There was no T1 prepared because they were not expecting us (Bad communication, I guess) (2) The hotel was not crowded even so, the offered "upgrade" put my family on an apartment at resort entrance (far away from beach/reception) and with all rooms facing a busy public street.

Prós: gostei da localização, do sossego, da praia, da piscina interior e da simpatia dos funcionários.

Contras: não gostei das almofadas e faz toda a diferença.

Prós: Facilidades do hotel

Prós: Das acomodações, de estar próximo à praia, de ter estacionamento no hotel

Contras: Restaurante poderia atender melhor aos gostos pessoais infantis.

Prós: big room, modern interior, lovely garden, walking distance from one of the most beautiful beaches of the region

Contras: indoor pool only at extra cost and only with head cover (again extra cost), breakfast definitely not on 5* level, no beach service, umbrella and beds at extra cost

Prós: Super clean, excellent friendly staff and excellent facilities and large comfortable rooms

Contras: Directions to go to rooms and facilities was a bit unclear since the hotel is designed in sort of separate compounds. Maybe extra directions could make it easier to navigate around the place

Prós: Efficient and friendly reception staff. Good standard of cleanliness in the bedrooms. Excellent buffet breakfast. Good location.

Contras: Interior design drab. Furnishings and flooring worn and scuffed. Breakfast waiting on staff very unhelpful to the point of rudeness, always on their mobile phone indicating a lack of supervision. Which was a pity as quality of buffet breakfast was outstanding. Definitely nota 5* rating but could be put right through refurbishing, staff training and supervision.

Prós: Rooms were clean

Contras: Staff was not friendly, rooms are not 5 stars worthy. Door and safe were not working. Breakfast was basic. Bar was the only entertainment and non smokers have a hard time there! Last but not least: small cappuccino for 4 euro??

Prós: Adorei a comodidade do quarto, espaço exterior espectacular e comida excelente. Sem dúvida uma opção a reptir.

Prós: A envolvente exceptional

Contras: Pequenos detalhes que fazem a diferença sobretudo quando estamos a falar de uma unidade hoteleira cinco estrelas: - Tintas levantadas no WC, portas dos armários inoperacionais com fechos quebrados, mesas riscadas, umbreira interior da porta do quarto lascada.

Prós: Localização Boa muita gente em simultaneo

Prós: Café da manhã bem variado e excelente. Camas e roupas de excelente qualidade. Boas instalações e cozinha de boa qualidade.

Prós: Simpatia natural dos funcionários, comida muito cuidada, limpeza e tranquilidade do Hotel... Acesso a praia muito fácil também.

Prós: Large rooms Easy access to the beach

Contras: 1-House keeping service was really poor simply they don’t want to clean and leaving the floor wet 2-breakfast average in a level of a 4 star hotel 3- paying extra 10 euro a day for the sauna and jacuzi

Prós: Rooms are spacious

Contras: Breakfast buffet is horrible.. one of the worst.. staff has a horrible attitude,, refused to meet very simple demands expected in any luxury hotel,, such as towels and any service in the hotel’s private beach,, changing towels in the room. Room service is really really really bad. Tried multiple things in the menu.. burger, club sandwich, pizza. All tasted like frozen cheap food. Rhe room service took forever to reach the room

Prós: Lovely pool , short walk to beach and very clean! Prices not bad for 5 star . Fresh bottle of water every morning free of charge . Restaurant on the beach by the hotel is excellent! €6 in an Uber to get to albuifera old town

Contras: Staff rude, no friendliness! Hair drier in room didn’t work properly and sewer smell coming from shower during the day , we had to run the water to freshen it up each day before we used it! Poor selection at buffet dinner definitely would not recommend .
