Nice hotel, very clean and nice breakfast. The bar was really nice too, only thing was that the pool was OK but relatively small so we'd quite often head up to a place about 8 mins walk away where the 'Tangerine' restaurant is - the pool there was awesome! The resort is good for families / couples, and the few... More

Have to agree with previous reviews - couldn't find anything to fault at this hotel. Staff were friendly, room was great and cleaned every day and the buffet breakfast every morning was very nice. The hotel (like the resort) was very quiet probably because i was there at the end of January. A lot of the bars & restaurants mentioned... More

The pizzeria/little italian restaurant about a... More

We had a wonderful stay at Velamar, which we found to be spotlessly clean, with comfortable beds (unlike some others in the area) and a superb buffet breakfast. The lounge bar area was nicely fitted out, and reasonably priced, with attentive staff. There were plenty of restaurants within walking distance, all serving good food at reasonable prices. Having stayed in... More

This is a nice hotel for a quiet getaway. Its probably not the place to be if you are looking to party every night but is on a very good bus route for buses either into Albufeira or Villamoura. It is at least a 5 minute walk to the beach from the hotel - either to Olhos d' Agua or... More

Just got back from a 4 day stay at the Velamar, what a lovely hotel, Breakfast lovely and fresh, rooms cleaned every day including New Years Day, The bar in the hotel is lovely, modern, and comfortable, staff are all friendly and helpful. Try the Soft Cafe next door, the food and service are great and at very cheap prices. More
