Location
There are plenty of bars/restaurants up the road with the strip only being less than a 15 minute walk from the hotel, the old town also is beautiful with such a great choice of restaurants.
The staff at this hotel are very helpful and polite. Luis in the bar is great with everyone kids included.
Cant wait to go back to Albuferia and probably would stay here as its a great location to everything but could do with a little bit of refurbishment.

The manager was really nice and within an hour problem was solved. This hotel is perfect for couples not too much for children.
Night life is great away from hotel the strip is the best for all ages

Location was far enough away from 'The Strip' not to be bothered by it, but close enough to walk to. The beach was only a short walk, but a bus from the hotel was available. Many restaurants close by with plenty of choice. Supermarket just up the road with plenty of choice.
All of the staff were fine and very helpful.The entertainment was poor but not offensive.
We would go to the hotel again.

The cleanliness of the hotel was great. Our rooms were cleaned 12 days out of the 14 which we were there for. Rooms were very spacious and contained more than enough facilities needed, for example-washing machine!
(This was the highlight of mum's holiday!)
The staff were very friendly, polite and made great chips! The food was lovely and I enjoyed eating their tuna toasties!
Lastly I would like to say thank you to all staff (including cleaners) for making my holiday comfortable and relaxing
I would give my overall experience in The Algarve a 10 out of 10 and can't wait to return next summer!

Room was clean and tidy,staff were very helpful and we had a good start to our family holiday, but on the second day ,disaster! W ehad cold running water in our bath room, nothing wrong with that.
The only problem was ,it was running down 3 of the bathroom walls. The hotel`s solution ,was to give us three towels to mop it up. This went on for two days before it was fixed. We could not use the toilet or bath, we had to use the bathroom ,of one of our party.
When it was fixed ,our room had a damp musty smell for the rest of the week.
Apart from the above ,it was a great holiday and would go back to the area but in a different hotel.

Staff, appartment and facilities are excellent and within walking distance from the 'strip'. The hotel also run a courtesy bus to Old Town and the beach.

Hotel staff were extremely helpful, nothing too much
trouble.
Entertainment was a bit loud for the size of the bar area, but as our room was directly above, we heard everything!!!!!!!!! Nevertheless, enjoyable.. Would most certainly go back again, and again.

The apartment was clean and spacious with all the utensils in the fitted kitchen that we required from toaster to coffee maker/washing machine and a micro wave.
The apartment was spacious with separate areas for the kitchen and bathroom as well as a hall way. The pool area was clean and well looked after and all the staff were friendly and helped with all of our needs.
The bar area was a little expensive from the surrounding areas. Once we returned we have booked to return to the apartments in June 05.
Two great bars in the area around the apartments were the new Dubliner (Wendy) and the rovers return (graham).both bars looked after us and serve fantastic food all day long.

Good size pool, does get busy, there are rules stopping sun bed reservations (towels @ 2.00am), but some days there were no beds left by 10.30am. However there is plenty of space on the grass, so not a real problem. Mattresses available @ 2 Euro's
Snack bar good and the staff very helpful, and speak good English. Bar stays open up to 2.00am, even later if there are many people around.
Rooms do get hot at night, you might want to invest in a fan!!!.
Only issue was a break in at one of the apartments, also heard that this had happened before. Need to keep windows /door locked at night. Which is not helpful considering the heat.
Over all one of the best I have stayed in for many years.

We were on the top floor no lifts bit of a trek if you had kids or older.
Kitchen had eveything required for self catering good sized fridge and washing machine. We had a studio apartment and the kitchen was seperated from the sleeping/living area which we liked.
Staff friendly most spoke some English.
Did eat at complex a few times, food okay but expensive compared to outside. Drinks also more expensive.
Gets very hot in the room at night 30euros to hire fan for 2 weeks you can buy them cheaper.
Quiet at night.
