3-star beachfront hotel with two distinct buildings in Albufeira

Rooms and buildings

The hotel is made up of two buildings: the Beach Building, literally on the beach, and the Main Building, 300 meters away. The Beach Building offers 110 rooms in types such as Superior Vista Terra and Superior Vista Mar, some with panoramic balconies. The Main Building has 195 rooms, including Standard, Superior, and Solarium options, all with terracotta floors, a work desk, minibar, and cable TV.

Dining

The hotel's restaurant serves both international cuisine and traditional Portuguese dishes. A coffee house on site and a snack bar provide additional dining options throughout the day. Guests can also order wine or champagne at the bar.

Entertainment and activities

The hotel has a games room with billiards and offers activities including diving, cycling, hiking, table tennis, and tennis on its own court. Seasonal entertainment, such as karaoke, is available on site. Children have access to a dedicated playground.

Outdoor facilities

The hotel features an outdoor swimming pool with a terrace and sun loungers, surrounded by a fence for safety. The landscaped garden provides additional space for relaxation. Guests also have direct access to the beach from the Beach Building.

Location and practical information

The hotel is a 10-minute walk from the Albufeira city center and Praia da Oura. Several restaurants serving fresh seafood are within a 10-minute walk of the hotel. Free private parking is available on site, and Faro Airport is a 30-minute drive away.

“The hotel's direct beachfront access is a major draw, placing you steps from Albufeira's sandy shores. Rooms with balconies offer panoramic views, adding to the appeal. While some facilities appear dated, the location-near the old town-positions you well for exploring the local culture and nightlife.”
