My wife and i returned on Tuesday after a 7 nights stay @ the Almar. The Monarch flight from Gatwick left on time and we landed @ 9.30am and were checking into the hotel before 11am!!! So we checked in to get it out of the way but beware they do ask for a credit card to hold a damages... More

Stayed for 8 nights. Had a one bed sea view apartment on the 3rd floor. The location is perfect, 5 minutes walk to the beach and old town and the tourist train stop is close by. View is amazing. Apartment is a good size and clean. Pool area and garden is lovely and sunbeds available at no extra charge. There... More

Excellent location 5mins to the entertainment and 5mins to a site-seeing train to the Strip. Lovely views of the sea and Old Town from our balcony. Apartments spacious and clean and staff very friendly, couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast plentiful and adequate, set us up for the day. Fully enjoyed our holiday and would definately stay at this accommodation... More

The ALMAR apartments are all about location. Overlooking the sea (Sea View Apt Try to get 4th floor). They are a pleasant ten minute downhill stroll to the beach and the old town.

This is the second time I have visited this hotel, once in October with my boyfriend - I booked a suite apartment which was massive with 2x balcony, 2x single sofa beds & a double bed - more than enough room for two lol. I've just come back from there(April) with my friend and booked a smaller room(Studio), which is... More

The best location ever, just a few minute walk to Old town and the beach. Room spacious and amazing views. Always clean and helpful friendly staff. Such good value for money and Albufeira is a beautiful place!!

First of all the good parts, very cheap, amazing views of the sea and old town from the apartment. The apartment is very large with good size balcony. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It is also relatively easy to get to old town from the apartments. The downsides are there was no restaurant or bar open this time... More
