This was one of the best hotels I stayed in. The staff were extremely friendly, very helpful and went out their way to make our trip very enjoyable. Every single member of staff were lovely and just made our stay so much better. They even fixed my husbands glasses, allowed us to shower after we checked out as our flight was in the night. The hotel is very very clean, amazing facilities such as the indoor pool, sauna and roof top with Infinity pool. Breakfast options are good with gluten free options available. You are able to order things from a menu (all for free), such as pancakes, eggs, crepes etc and also enjoy the self-service set up with a range of different foods. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel if you do come to Faro. I would definitely come back!! Thanks to the amazing team!

As much a cultural space as a hotel with its lovingly-assembled artworks and curiosities, it had an almost Gaudi-like air. Each stroll around the extensive grounds offers new surprises among the countless olive trees while the singular swimming pool is an absolute delight.

Definitely not a 3 star hotel, deserves much much more. Perfect location, 20 min driving to airport, Faro, Lagos, Albufeira and other places around. Great staff, very kind and helpful. The room was very spacious, clean and had a nice smell. The rooftop pool was also clean and comfortable to spend some time there. Personally had an incident there and staff and the property owner were there to help us until resolved. Very thankful about that. Other than that, we had our flight back home very early in the morning and they prepared for us breakfast boxes with everything in it. Absolutely recommended, and for sure we will be back again

FAQs about hotels in Algarve

Sun and Fun in the Algarve

A paradise of yellow sandstone cliffs and turquoise waters that's full of green golf courses and seasoned with delicious food and rich history, the Algarve region in Portugal has lively spots, quiet corners, and inland areas that well deserve a visit. From the banks of the Ria Formosa lagoon in the east, to the high cliffs of Sagres on the southwest tip of Europe, the region is a great option for a sunny holiday and Booking.com will help you find the best hotels in the Algarve.

The name of this Portuguese region comes from the Arabic Al-Gharb, meaning ‘The West’, but before being part of the Moorish empire, it was inhabited by ancient tribes, and successively by Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans, and Visigoths.

When it officially became part of Portugal, it gained fame as a centre for trade. The beautiful city of Lagos still offers a picturesque and colourful historic centre that recalls its important position in the area.

Flying into Faro Airport puts the whole region at your fingertips. The best all-inclusive hotels in the Algarve include their own golf course, an activity very popular in this region. If you just want sea and sun, then keep an eye on our deals for the best beach hotels in the Algarve.

Stayed in the luxury one bedroom suite. The room was fab. Very clean. The cleaners were so nice leaving our daughter’s bunny in cute positions for us to find. They had a daily turn down service which was lovely to come back to every day. The cot and high chair were added to the room free of charge and the cot itself was very large and comfy, with sheets changed daily and lots of towels. The staff was so kind, personable and helpful. Breakfast was good (although better coffee would be good). The bed lounger on the balcony was amazing to catch some sun in private and the balcony itself was huge with a great view of the pool. Super quick check in. It was completely Stress free for us as a new family.

It was the perfect place to explore the Algarve! Placid Village is a complex of several houses situated on a small hill, a swimming pool, a tennis court and parking spaces. In our apartment we had 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room with a kitchenette and a large balcony. The apartment was well-equipped. We could cook freely in the kitchen, we had a stove, oven, microwave, kettle and all kitchen utensils. There was also a washing machine in the bathroom. The rooms were air conditioned. We felt like at home there. The staff was helpfull and friendly. Next to reception is also a snacbar.The center of Carvoeiro is a 20-minute walk away. I highly recommend it, the best place!

Faro has a contrast in neighborhoods.

Faro has a contrast in neighborhoods. Some parts look really rundown and others not so much. Given this city is in the Algarve region, a lot of visitors must come through, and this has given the city a bit of an edge (this observation is based only on a couple of days in Faro, during the "shoulder" travel season in Portugal).

Albufeira?

Albufeira? Get's a bad wrap due the Strip and its association with the worst kind of British/Irish tourists. Hens/Stags - men with no tops on and women in bikinis at breakfast. After a busy season of dealing with the worst kind of tourists the workers like the November slow down. Some shops, bars cafe's restaurants close. Ideal time to enjoy a quieter existence in a pleasant climate away form the crass commercial run up to Christmas. Santa is here alright - but he is gold and subtle. The coastline is beautiful and the boat trips run the whole year. Quiet beaches where you can mellow out with a book dot the new and old towns coastlines. Families : this is a great place for fun filled family holidays ....swimming pools in cheap places, water parks, the tourist train, boat trips ...the kids will not get bored. £ Euros : an English Irish breakfast can be had at the Waterline Restaurant for 5 Euros a pop, Self cater ? Your groceries bills will be cut in half. Food produce healthy, a nice table wine litre for 85 cence a pop. Flixbus runs from the bus station in town - cheap to go visit other places. The locals are a good laugh, GNR and Municipal keep order. If I was still a European Union chick would stay here for good.

Lots of restaurants, but we preferred to cater for our selves with fresh fruit, veg. and meat. Small shops were sparse to purchase these food ingredients but internet research revealed a couple within 15 min. walk. Public transport use for larger supermarkets and access to the cliff top areas if you want to avoid the steps. Daily bus tickets are available to use on any local route.

We stayed for 6 nights which was a night or two more than required. Tavira is an interesting town and we enjoyed a Fado performance in one of the beautiful churches. It has a wide choice of good eateries and trips are available to local attractions like the island. However, we were glad we took the option of taking the train to Faro for one day and to the crossingbto Spain on a small ferry on another day. Tavira is close to Spain.The ferry port in Portugal is an attractive town as is its couterpart onthe Spanish side.

The ruins of the ancient castle overlooking the town enhances the dreamlike feeling of this very old town. Just wandering the streets is enough, but then there is terrific hiking. Ideal for those who like heritage and outdoor adventure in the "real" Portugal outside of the large City. And then there are the people, who could not do enough to help.

Vilamoura is a beautiful resort. Great selection of bars and restaurants both at the Marina and set back from the Marina. Beaches are beautiful - lovely promenade at Quarteira. Plenty of Ubers available at a great price. Highly recommend The Golden Marina for a Chinese and il Trio for Italian and Rui's for steak. O'Neills Irish Pub is also great for a drink at a decent price and entertainment every night.

Sagres is history lovers and sports enthusiasts paradise -offering plenty of hiking, beach time, surfing, and cycling. The views are amazing, and the Fort is not only impressive, but also describes natural heritage while offering spectacular views. As for the restaurants, perhaps it was end of the season blues, but the serving staff seemed a little put-off you were there. The brewpub was not exceptional except for the fact you could get a decent beer, something rare in Portugal. Their beer, however, was expensive, and at the prices charged not meant to encourage people to linger.
