One of the best Algarve resorts, Albufeira has wonderful beaches, turquoise waters and the dramatic, rocky coastline that makes this part of Portugal so special.
Naturally, life here is all about sun, sand and sea. The most popular Albufeira beach is Fisherman’s Beach and you can still see locals bringing in the fishing boats every morning - if you’re up early enough, that is. Tunnel Beach is accessed through an opening in the cliff, and both offer a variety of watersports.
Further up the coast is Albufeira Marina, from where sightseeing boat trips depart, while east of the town is the 9-hole Balaia golf course. On the way here, you pass Arias de Sao João, home to The Strip where the best bars and clubs are found, many staying open until the early hours.
The Old Town of Albufeira is more peaceful, and its cobbled streets house Moorish buildings and some great restaurants serving fresh fish. If you fancy a day trip from Albufeira, the 12th-century remains of Moorish Almoáda Castle in Paderne can be visited for free.
The town is around 45 minutes’ drive from Faro Airport and there is a fantastic range of beach resorts, small B&Bs and Albufeira apartments on Booking.com.

Certain parts of Albufeira are still beautiful, but the old town seems to be full of stag & hen parties. The Strip is the same but you expect that there.
Santa Eulalia & Olhos d’Agua are still nice, & have beautiful beaches.

You can split Albufeira into two parts - Centre - focused on turists and Old Town part - for slow wondering around. Centre is located in Old Town, so You can make two steps away from main street and enjoy quiet, relaxed atmosphere. Town beach is beautiful - large and sandy with clean water. Unfortunatelly The Lift (the one who takes You down from streets level to beach level) doesn't work and You have to use over 110 steps to get down to beach. Food prices avarage for holiday resorts - starts from 15Euro for pizza up to 20+Euro for everything else. Super cheap Port wine to buy in Intermarche (from 4,2E). In general people speak english, so no problem with comunication.

We have visited serval times, and always come back completely relaxed, but also having had great value food, drink and as much nightlife we can handle (lol) there is something different to see most days for a short break, and you a spoilt for choice in the evenings for live music and well cooked food.

We stay in an area called santa eulalia it's a bit quite than the strip and old town which suits us we can get a bus taxi or the little train into old town for a day. The area also has bus stops which give access to other areas in albufeira and connects to main bus station. Some of our favourite places to go are netos restaurant , Roberto's piri piri restaurant, robieros restaurant, all have good reasonably inexpensive food and friendly staff, the little cafe deli on the corner of the octopus roundabout does lovely snacks and drinks, the coyote bar and the old house bar have friendly staff and good for karaoke next to a very good Chinese restaurant

The hotel Epic Sana has to be one of the best hotels in this area. We found nothing that could be improved, as the accomadation, food, cleanliness was as a 5* should be. All the staff from management to housekeepers were pleasant and always willing to help or assist in anyway. Local facilities in the pretty village of ‘Olhos de Agua’ were adequate, if you are looking for a quiet peaceful holiday(no noisy night clubs or bars) which was heavenly for us.
Excellent *****

Albufeira is one of the best places to go.
Albufeira is one of the best places to go. We have travelled many times and have stayed in Old Town Albufeira with friends and really enjoyed it every time we go. Hotel Music and Location are all excellent. We would recommend anyone to go to Albufeira for a holiday. Plenty of transport options wherever you want to go there. Buses, Trains etc.
Great apartment in perfect location: walking distance to beach and old town. Clean, specious, and has everything you need for comfortable stay, kitchen was well-equipped including dishwasher, washing machine, etc. Beautiful views overlooking the old city and ocean from balcony.
Nuno is an excellent host, very kind and helpful. He kept in touch from day one, met us in person to show around, provided helpful information/sightseeing suggestions.
We had an unforgettable stay and hope to come back sometime soon!
Very clean property with good facilities and pricing. One Bedroom apartments are comfortable for 2-3 people. Rooms are very good quality. Housekeeping staff are very friendly and efficient. Front Desk Manager/Supervisor lady was very nice and helpful. very nice pool area with plenty of sun beds and space for size of hotel. Quiet location at night so great for a good night’s sleep after visiting the old town which is a 10-minute stroll or €4 taxi cab away.
Location was ideally located 2 mins walk to a big indoor supermarket and 15 mins walk to either Old Town or New Town, the rooms are clean, very spacious and practical, the sun loungers are comfortable and the kids pool was great for the babys & toddlers, the staff and local Portuguese are lovely and welcoming, lots of very good restaurants in the old town, would highly recommend this hotel and a holiday to Albufeira! 🙂
Best location possible if a traveller intends on staying in or around old town Albufeira. The interior updates have given the hostel a nice and modern look that is difficult to find in other hostels around the Algarve. Can extra safety measures be taken to help guests feel at ease? Sure. However, if you take responsibilty for your own items and store them away properly, you will not have a problem.
Great place to stay , pools were fabulous , Amazing beach Falésia is only a 10 minute walk , Rooms were amazing lovely and spacious and we had a nice balcony looking out at the pool and lovely bathroom & kitchen. music on downstairs was lovely in the evening. great activities on for both adults & kids all day at the hotel. Old Town Albufeira is about a 10-15 min drive only €7/8 in an Uber .
The location and view from room is the best you will find in albufeira, quiet area compared to many apartments but great location for all bars and restaurants in Old Town. Lifts available to all floors, so much choice at breakfast, free safe in room. Friendly staff. Fridge a good size in room too. Lovely shower and some free toiletries. Plenty of toilet paper and 14 hangers in wardrobe,
Huge amount of space for the value.
my single room included a separate kitchen and living room, with furnished patio overlooking the pool. it’s literally a one-bedroom apartment. immaculately clean and the location can’t be beat for the value. 6 minute walk downhill to the sea shore, from there you can walk to old town Albufeira along the shoreline. little markets right next door.
Management, receptionist and other staff are very professional and welcoming. Hotel is located in the best part of the town. Few steps from the beautiful beach and old town. There are many restaurants and shops just outside of the hotel. Housekeepers work hard to maintain the place clean and tidy. Very good value for the money. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
We couldn’t have asked for a better location for our stay in Albufeira with nearby access to the beach and the beautiful old town. The hotel was exceptionally clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was simple and had everything we needed, even a balcony with a sea view, and we enjoyed use of the well-maintained pool.
Amazing location , super clean terrace lovely , I have been in Portugal for 8 weeks I’ve stayed in 5 star hotels , 4 star and also apartments and villas , but lonely and quiet , so I try here for one night , but now I’m thinking of staying , do not hesitate to book here it is perfect , I should of stayed here before
My go-to hotel room in Albufeira because it's cheap and has everything you need: a comfy bed, working ac, working tv, warm water, some toiletries, and a balcony. It's near the center, there are restaurants and cafés nearby. Near the beach. It's nice and quiet.
Beautiful view very clean, comfy mattress on bed, hotel was right by the beach. Shuttle bus into town . Could walk into Albufeira old town along the beach( sand ,no wooden boardwalk available) Quiet beach in a smallish cove nearby too
Walking distance from old town Albufeira, which was our favorite area. Per centrally located so it was not a terribly far drive from anywhere. Very affordable. We did not use the pool, but it was nice.
Location perfect away from the noise of the strip and old town. But close enough to walk or a 3 min taxi ride for €4
Hotel food was excellent. Clean and friendly.
Pool area spotless.
the property is far away from everything. and the staff is anxious to book expensive trip for clients so they get a cut. for a 5 star hotel, this is not a good value at all.
Nice hotel all inclusive was good value food was nice with good range for everyone. Very central we walked to old town everyday and walked to the Strip also
