Hotel Pantai di Albufeira

Great location. 15min walk from the ***** and 10 mins drive from old town. Everything was great in the hotel, rooms look great. Although we did have strong smoking smell come into our room a few nights even though balcony doors shut. The only problem I had was with the breakfast. Having allergies and dietary requirements were not really accommodated. Majority of the foods had egg in them. I emailed in about this before the stay but nothing was sorted out. I emailed a list of foods i can eat. I was also told halal food will be provided for me from the 3rd day with more variety for me. However I received no halal food/meat, and got hummus every morning out of the list I provided. Not the best but I gave up and stuck to just having potatoes and beans on bread every morning. They did bring everything from the back every morning which is a plus I guess. A couple of wrong recommendations about money exchange from reception too. Otherwise really good hotel.

Atendimento 5 estrelas. Chegamos antes da hora do check in e a colega da receção foi super simpática e deixou nos entrar antes da hora uma vez que o quarto já estava disponível. Hotel pequeno e super agradável com bons restaurantes à volta. Um ponto negativo é que o isolamento dos quartos não é o melhor e ouve se algum barulho durante a noite que intensifica a partir das 8h quando as senhoras da limpeza começam o trabalho e até aspiram perto dos quartos.

At best its a 4star property. During our stay hotel wasnt at its best, so ill put 3.5 stars. Hotel entrance looks like a train station waiting room. For a moment we thought that we are underground as its dark everywhere inside the hotel. Toilets were smelly on the entrance ground, Windows were cleaned on Christmas last year i think. Dirty floors. Rooms are dingy, but spacious.. Lots of cupboard space. you cant use the mirrors in bath area as its too dark. Water in Toilet bowl keeps on going unless you fiddle with the push buttons. TV Remote was filthy. Towels are from the 10th century, use with care! Toiletries are basic brands, nothing oo la la! Breakfast is good, not excellent. Theres a live station for omelettes and pancakes. Coffee from nescafe machines with pods, again not very 5 star standard. Stay here if you have a good price deal but not high expectations. DO NOT EXPECT 5 STAR SERVICE! You have been warned.

아... 일단 너무 아쉽습니다. 포르투갈 남부 지역이 이렇게나 예쁠 줄이야... 몰랐을 땐 몰랐지만 알고 보니 유명한 휴양지... ㅋㅋㅋ 렌트카로 여행중 경로상 1박만 했는데... 너무 아쉽습니다. 그 중 이 호텔도 한 몫을 단단히 했죠. 6 km 정도의 절벽 해안을 바로 밑에 두고 수평선만 있는 대서양 풍광을 가지고 있는 훌륭한 호텔입니다. 시설도 나무랄데 없이 아주 좋았고 윈도우 배경화면에서 자주 보던 베나질 해변까지도 차로 30~40분 밖에 걸리지 않습니다. 청결, 친절, 시설관리... 아주 훌륭합니다. 다음에 다시 스페인+포르투갈 여행을 할 수 있다면... 꼭 다시 이 호텔을 선택하겠습니다. 그 땐 재대로 수영도 하고 테니스도 치고 3박이나 4박쯤 해야겠습니다. ^^ 도시는 포르투갈의 '알부페이라'로 검색하시면 보실 수 있는 호텔입니다.

My hubby and I spent an AMAZING 5 nights at the Holiday Inn in Albufeira. From the moment I walked in, we knew we were in for a treat 💁️. The staff were ABSOLUTE STARS 🤩 - super friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our stay special. The hospitality was top-notch, and it really made my holiday 💖. The hotel and the rooms were immaculate. The breakfast buffet was great. Several options, and everything was freshly made 🍳. The hotel's indoor pool, all be it a bit small, was warm and the steam room and sauna a great treat. And let's not forget the location - the hotel is right in the heart of Albufeira, so everything is within walking distance 🏃♀️. Hotel is on a hill but we soon get used to it. Ubers and Bolt are also a great alternative and are pretty reasonably priced. Overall, I'd give the Holiday Inn Albufeira a solid 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. It's the perfect spot for a relaxing holiday, and I'd totally recommend it to anyone looking for a fab time in Albufeira 🙌!

One issue that needs addressing: sun bed reservations. There’s a sign stating guests can’t reserve sun beds, but it wasn’t enforced at all. We regularly saw beds left “reserved” for hours while no one was using them, which made it frustrating for other guests trying to find a spot by the pool. The main restaurant was decent but light on options for children who don’t eat large portions. A simple plain cheese and tomato pizza (no herbs or garlic) would go a long way for fussy younger eaters. The nightly entertainment could use some work — it felt slow-paced and wasn’t very engaging. Finally, a special thank you to Carlos on reception — he went above and beyond helping me sort out an issue with my laptop during the stay. That kind of service really stood out.

Such polite staff and very helpful always smiling. Rooms are perfectly adequate and sizeable. The amenities are terrific with a fun and large pool area which is clean and gets lots of sun year round

A Cozy Getaway with a Few Quirks I recently had the pleasure of staying at Block C in a wonderful location near the beach. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our time there, as the bedroom was spacious and beautifully designed. However, there were a few quirks that left us slightly puzzled. Locating the signage for the establishment proved to be a small challenge, but it added a sense of adventure to our experience. Unfortunately, the air conditioning in our room left something to be desired. It struggled to keep the temperature comfortably cool, and we often found ourselves feeling a bit hot. It would be great if this aspect could be improved to ensure a more comfortable stay. Nevertheless, spending evenings on the balcony was a delightfully cozy and relaxed experience. The ambiance was inviting and lent itself to unwinding after a day of exploration. The surrounding garden and environment added to the overall charm, and we truly appreciated the pleasant surroundings. I highly recommend visiting this place for a minimum stay of 2 to 3 days. Anything less would make the trip feel rushed, as there is so much to explore and enjoy. Despite the minor quirks, our overall experience was enjoyable and memorable. I'm grateful for the opportunity to have stayed here and would gladly return for another visit.

La struttura è datata e necessita di una ristrutturazione, soprattutto le camere e la piscina. In camera non c'è il phon, ma è possibile chiederlo alla reception. Le camere vanno rinnovate, sono veramente spoglie, basterebbe un po' di colore alle pareti e mettere qualche quadro colorato. Runner e cuscini in velluto sono ormai superati e inutili, finiti immediatamente dentro l armadio. In bagno, la carta igienica è talmente soffice, che si sgretola in mano, soprattutto quando in bagno si crea vapore quando si apre l acqua calda. Ci sono 2 terrazze solarium, dove ci sono solo dei lettini. Le terrazze mi hanno dato l impressione di essere abbandonate, se ci fossero degli ombrelloni e dei tavolini e qualcuno venisse ogni tanto a portare dei teli e a chiedere se si ha bisogno di qualcosa, sarebbe sicuramente una cosa diversa. Anche in piscina mancano gli ombrelloni. Inoltre, noi avevamo la camera sullo stesso piano della piscina, purtroppo dovevamo tenere sempre la tenda chiusa, altrimenti gli altri ospiti potevano guardarci dentro la camera, ed era necessario accendere la luce anche in pieno giorno, altrimenti non si vedeva nulla. Suggerisco di mettere, oltre alla tenda oscurante, anche una tendina leggera, che blocchi gli sguardi indiscreti ma faccia passare la luce. Sarebbe il caso anche di ristrutturare camere, bagno e corridoi. È un peccato, perché la zona della reception, con le pareti verde chiaro e il divanetto tondo è molto carina. La zona colazione è ok, ma purtroppo non c è varietà. Oltre al prosciutto cotto, si potrebbero usare, a rotazione, magari, anche altri salumi. Inserire anche uova sode o all'occhio, latte e yogurt senza lattosio, qualche formaggio, cambiate gusti delle marmellate, mettere cioccolata spalmabile, waffles al posto dei pancake, ecc... C è un bar, ma non viene utilizzato da nessuno, peccato. Il personale è sempre stato estremamente gentile e disponibile. Ricordo il sorriso di Carolina che ci ha fatto il check in e con una mappa alla mano ci ha spiegato tutto, un collega uomo, anche lui molto sorridente, che in serata mi ha gentilmente fornito il phon, e la signora con il quale abbiamo fatto il check out. Anche le signore della colazioni molto disponibili, e una volta ci hanno fatto entrare anche se siamo arrivati tardi. Do comunque un voto alto, per non penalizzare nessuno, ma fiduciosa che il feedback serva a migliorare.
