I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel in Sept 2011. Throughout my stay, I was really impressed with the standards of the hotel and the friendliness of all the staff working there. The main thing I liked about the hotel was the fact that it was some distance from all the hustle and bustle, which meant it was the ideal location to get some peace and quiet! The suite was amazing and decorated to a high standard. There were two double bedrooms, two bathrooms and a kitchen/dining/living area. The suite also had a large balcony that ran the length of the suite which was lovely. The hotel has a number of facilities including tennis courts and a spa. The pool area was very nice with an abundance of sun loungers. The poolside restaurant served some delicious food and cocktails by some cheery waiters. I didn't get the opportunity to dine in the restaurant but had heard good feedback from other guests. There are some lovely restaurants in the vicinity of the hotel (Praia Grande being a standout - especially as it was within walking distance of the hotel). Getting to the Old Town is relatively easy as well as the hotel provides a number of shuttle buses. Otherwise a taxi would cost about 6-8 euros. Overall, I am looking forward to booking another stay at this hotel as it was fab!

The hotel is located in a quiet area near the beautiful beach. To be honest it's a bit far from the centre of Albufeira (ca. 2 km) but we do not care about it.
The rooms are spacious and modern, very clean I have to add. Buffet breakfast was comparable to other 5 stars hotels. Sometimes quality of food was not so high, but the choice was very good.
Outdoor pools were beautiful, there is also a lot of place to walk with a child in the neighbourhood.

I stayed here in September 2011 and throughly enjoyed the stay. The pool area is lovely - and there are lots of sun loungers. The suites are spacious, clean and the beds are very comfortable.

The food at breakfast was tasty and there was a good choice. The hotel is quite far out of town so you have to get a taxi in and out of Albuferia but it's very reasonable so I wouldn't let that put you off. Highly recommend.

Stayed 3 nights, and was very impressed by the whole hotel. Little far out of town, but fairly cheap taxi ride. Rooms were fantastic. Two bathrooms, kitchenette, huge bedroom, table and chairs. Breakfast good, pools very good and very pleasant staff.
