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 have a variety of water sports.
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 a 45 minute drive from Faro Airport and there is a fantastic range of beach resorts, small B&Bs and Albufeira apartments at Booking.com.

Definitely worth a visit.
Definitely worth a visit. The old town especially is very beautiful, but be prepared for lots of hills! Plenty of places to eat and drink, great atmosphere, lots to see and do. Make sure you take a boat trip to the caves, well worth it.

Albufeira is really a small City size rather than a town.
Albufeira is really a small City size rather than a town. It is a very busy and bustling place, but it has many different areas to suit all tastes and ages, locals are super friendly and passionate about their country.

Good place for various types of eating from very expensive to cheap and cheerful. Good walking shoes needed as there are lots of steps, slopes and much going up and down when moving about during a visit to the "Old Town" areas. Not good for wheelchair users and those with mobility issues.

The hotel rooms are in desperate need of renovation.
The hotel rooms are in desperate need of renovation. I didn’t even have a working electrical plug in the bathroom, there’s no full length mirror in the room and the hallway was not vacuumed on a regular basis. They rely heavily on the beach and pool areas otherwise I can’t imagine anyone wanting to stay here.

Didnt like the area at all, its only fit for groups of lads and maybe girls, but if I was a woman I wouldnt feel safe there.
The streets are horrendous with bricks and loose rubble evrywhere, it looks completly run down, nothing attractive about it at all.

Albufeira is a lovely beach town with a lot of kid friendly...
Albufeira is a lovely beach town with a lot of kid friendly activities and nice options for the grown ups like cliff hiking too. The beaches are excellent. There are a lot of restaurants in town and various cuisines. Multiple beach resorts make it a perfect location for family vacations. Its very easy to reach from Faro airport or train station. In town its easy to move around via Uber etc, but best to have a rental car, there is parking easily available everywhere. We stayed at the Alfagar Village and it was a very good experience.
We stayed in Cerro Mar Garden, we were lucky to get a fabulous apartment on the 6th floor with amazing views overlooking albufeira old town, the pool and the sea. Reception staff were very friendly, helpful and efficient. The apartment had everything we needed in it and Aldi is about 10 mins walk away. We had 2 single beds pushed together which were very comfortable and we got fresh towels and beds were dressed daily. The grounds of the hotel and the pool were all kept clean and there were enough sunbeds for the week we were there.
Fantastic hotel, located 10 minutes walk from Albufeira old town. Close to many bars, restaurants, and supermarkets.
The room is very big and clean, the bed is very comfortable, Wifi connection is very good, and the room
has a very nice and clean bathroom. Breakfast is very good as well.
The owners are very communicative and nice, super friendly, and were always attentive and asked if we needed any help with anything. We really felt at home :)
I loved this place !!! I will come back for sure when I am back to Albufeira.
For a solo traveler it's ideal. It's fantastic value for money, somewhere to drop your bags and shower and sleep is all I want from a room. Ideally situated between the new and old town so you've got the best of both worlds. Room was clean and spacious, also if you're leaving late there's somewhere to store your luggage. When I come back to Albufeira I wouldn't look to stay anywhere else
One final call out to Rita, a delightful young lady who has to be the most helpful member of staff I've ever come across
Very neat and clean apartment. Quiet neighbourhood (at least in March). Beautiful views-you can see the whole Albufeira, and the ocean, from both sides of the house. You can see the sun in the morning from your balcony, and the sunset from the public corridor on your doorstep. The house has everything you need. It's 10-15min. walk to the old town and the beach. And the best part -lovely landlady Idàlia. Super reliable and welcoming, made me feel at ease and resolved any issues very quickly. Would stay again.
5* location right on the beach. We stayed in a superior sea view with a balcony overlooking the water. A 10-min walk along the cliff to the old town. The beach was clean and really long. Breakfast was good with dates, local cheeses (goat cheese and round, soft cheese were so good), fresh mango/melon/pineapple, local coffee (meio de leite). Charging points on each side of the bed. Retro, Miami vibe. Italian restaurant (Trattoria Toscana) next to the hotel was very good.
Best location possible if a traveller intends on staying in or around old town Albufeira. The interior updates have given the hostel a nice and modern look that is difficult to find in other hostels around the Algarve. Can extra safety measures be taken to help guests feel at ease? Sure. However, if you take responsibilty for your own items and store them away properly, you will not have a problem.
Absolutely stunning property, if you are looking for a nice quiet family getaway than I would highly recommend staying here. It’s a 5-10-minute drive from pristine beaches and old town Albufeira but is far enough away from these crowded areas for a nice quiet place to rest. The host Tiago was also excellent and was always quick on the response towards any questions we had during our stay.
Management, receptionist and other staff are very professional and welcoming. Hotel is located in the best part of the town. Few steps from the beautiful beach and old town. There are many restaurants and shops just outside of the hotel. Housekeepers work hard to maintain the place clean and tidy. Very good value for the money. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
its good. best thing is there is A/C in a room, it helps to sleep well with so hot outside. when i moved to different 2 stars hotel next day in Albufeira with no A/C, just a fan couldn’t sleep with that heat, made me miss this place when i walk passing it. great spot too, only 5 mins walk to the centre, old town and the beach. breakfast was ok.
The location of this hotel was absolutely perfect. With direct access to the beach out back (via elevator instead of lots of stairs like we saw at other hotels) and Old Town out front, it was exactly what we were hoping for. The included breakfast each morning was delicious, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect.
Absolutely amazing villa. Huge space with a great backyard as well for dogs or kids. Location is absolutely convenient, right next to old town. Plenty of street parking and we look forward yo booking this same spot again the next time we are back down in albufeira.
Lovely hotel in perfect location right on the beach and in the old town. Lovely clean spacious rooms with sea view and balcony, looks out on to the beach. Plenty of choice at breakfast, nice lounge and bar area, there is also an indoor pool if you prefer.
Very good location. Only a few minutes walk to the old town. Apartment was cleaned daily. We had a lovely view in apartment 204.
Would highly recommend downloading the Bolt app. It’s similar to Uber and very cheap to get a taxi back to the apartment.
Love this location. Right in old town but a block away from the bar area so no noise at night. Excellent balcony overlooking the street. Great to sit out and listen to Albufeira! Very comfortable beds. Parking garage is right at the property
The location is perfect, near to the old town , close to supermarkets and restaurants .
The WiFi in the hotel is good, decent pool area and lovely friendly staff and very helpful front door girl Rita .
The swimming pool was nice.
This is the cutes apartment I’ve been in Portugal! In the very centre of Albufeira, 2 min from the beach. Very quiet and the bed was very comfortable 😊 There is a very nice terrace as well. I love everything about this place!
Location perfect away from the noise of the strip and old town. But close enough to walk or a 3 min taxi ride for €4
Hotel food was excellent. Clean and friendly.
Pool area spotless.
Nice hotel all inclusive was good value food was nice with good range for everyone. Very central we walked to old town everyday and walked to the Strip also
