One downside - six miles from Albufeira. They do run minibuses into town daytimes.

I am just back this afternoon. Hubby and I LOVED it and we are already talking about booking for next May.

It is a large complex made up of blocks of rooms no higher than 3 stories, set in beautifully maintained gardens, avoid block AB as it is outwith the main complex, across a road. We were very happy with our room and it's location, block P. There was a fridge free of charge, just paid for safe hire.

3 restaurants and you can use any at any meal time. At the main restaurant there is an outdoor seating area (just plastic tables & chairs) and also down at the Aquarius smallest restaurant you can sit outside. We enjoyed all the meals and thought there was a great selection.

2 main large outdoor pools with ample sunbeds and parasols, also the sunbeds on beach free of charge.

Evening entertainement was held inside in the 'theatre' which I doubt would hold that many during peak season.

It is VERY remote. We walked along beach to Vilamoura to the mariner (35mins). Complimentary bus runs to Albufeira if you manage to get a seat on it. We had to go on public transport, bus stop right outside front of complex.

Feel free to ask any questions

I'm glad you had a great time and hope the weather report was wrong and you had lovely weather. It sounds lovely, thankyou very much :) Do the buses run quite late in the evening if we decide to go into town for night time entertainment one evening? And are there any other entertainment type things happening at the hotel other than the one inside the theatre, don't fancy being inside all evening with two boys of 9 lol. Thanks :)

No heather78, the ordinary buses do not run in the evenings, as per most of the UK these days!

Last bus back from Albufeira, all the way, is at 1735.

A taxi will be €10 Euros or so.
