We have just arrived from New years staying at the Alba Suites Resort and I must say if you have ever stayed in a "decent" 5 star...this does not come close. The staff is friendly and eager to please, but is not qualified for 5 star service. The hotel has a tiny indoor pool which was extremely crowded with 15... More

Service was still excellent from the staff on our third visit to Suites Alba, However, there are luxuries missing from the restaurant. The first two of three evening meals we took towards the end of our stay were reasonable, but the chef is trying too hard with the evening meal menus. Ice cream with strawberry soup with Cinnamon just too... More

This is a good hotel, although the prices do not justify the services. We went with a promotion, for a weekend. It was very, very difficult to find the resort. We had directions taken from Google but even though it was not easy to find the place. The road to get there is terrible. Is very narrow, it's not possible... More

In short: a beautifull location, great suites, but due to lack of good management it reallys stops at a poor 4 star. In our room the safe did not work, it was the first day filled with flies, the fridge did not close, the door of cupboard could not be opened, some lights did not work, more of those details,...

We just stayed for a weekend at Suites Alba for a weekend away. We narrowed it down from a lot of hotels in Portugal and we DEFINITELY made the correct choice. I have never been so impressed and blown away by both a hotel and the beaches. We wanted relaxation, we got it! The beach is a 5 minute walk,... More

Amid flowers and green and near the cliffs, miles from the main road, absolute tranquillity and oceanic experience. Very confortable suites in villas. Extra-ordinary concept, great service. Breakfast and resto a little bit underneath the scale, but overall exceptional price value rate. More

Me and my wife have chosen this resort because it got plenty of good reviews over the last couple of years, the place looked charming and quiet for a 3 day vacations at Algarve and we wanted to just relax and be spoiled by the 5 star “standards” and customer service. The good points:  The place is awesome, near... More

The aim of our holiday was for - relaxation! To achieve this, we expected nice food (having booked half board), good clean accommodation, nice pool, friendly staff/service, adequate spa facilities and no wish to move from the hotel itself other than to be able to walk to the beach. We were overwhelmed by the whole package. We were able to... More

I read a poor review on here and rather than let it worry me, I like to see for myself. How right we are to judge for ourselves! It is truly a fabulous place and deserves its five star rating. I travel a lot for business and pleasure and this rates up there with the best I have stayed in.... More

My husband and I spent 4 nights at this hotel recently. Best for families – all apartments have 2 beds and a small kitchen, there is a small swimming pool for children, and most people go with theirs. The access is good (tarred road), although narrow (only one vehicle each way for about 3 Km, with some side spaces to... More
