Hotel California Urban Beach - Adults Only, hotel in Albufeira

Fully refurbished, Hotel California Urban Beach - Adults Only is located a 2-minute walk from the Praia dos Pescadores Beach, offers an outdoor pool with views of Albufeira, sun loungers, a solarium...

The hotel itself had a cool, chill adults only vibe and was decorated in a hip, contemporary style. The rooms were a good size and beds were comfortable. The staff were all super friendly and accommodating. Lastly, the breakfast buffet had a nice selection of healthy food and drink options. lunch poolside with a live jazz singer or sax player was a nice touch. I particularly enjoyed relaxing in the co-ed hammam /steam room Spa fillowed by a wonderful massage by Isabelle.

FAQs about hotels in Albufeira

Sun, Sand and The Strip!

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 have a variety of water sports.

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 a 45 minute drive from Faro Airport and there is a fantastic range of beach resorts, small B&Bs and Albufeira apartments at Booking.com.

    Beautiful and quiet.

    Beautiful and quiet. Albufeira has charm in the old town which was our favourite, and laid back atmosphere. Party atmosphere at night if that’s what you’re looking for as well in both old and new town areas. So many restaurants and beaches are some of the best in the world! Highly recommend visiting Praia da Marinha beach! We ate at O Catraio in the old town - food was amazing! Wish we stayed longer!

    I liked everything about the apartment: location, spacious, decorations, facilities... It is a great place. To make it better , they could add some soap in bathroom and the check out time could be an hour later. 10'oclock is to early . Apart of that, our time there was wonderful. I couldn't ask for a better place to be with my family.

    So, make no mistake the old town at night is like Marti gras every night. But thats not a bad thing especially if you are young. If you are not into that scene may want to find a quieter town. We loved it for our young adult kids to go out at night. There are places to escape to that don't feel that way. Beaches are lovely, and enjoyed just relaxing.

    It's easy to get around in Albufeira, lots of tuk-tuks and even the taxis are not expensive. The local food was also very good. I really liked the bacalau dishes! The height of our trip was the boat ride to visit the Benagil caves and seeing dolphins swimming right up to our boat. The people are very welcoming and friendly too.

    Very neat and clean apartment. Quiet neighbourhood (at least in March). Beautiful views-you can see the whole Albufeira, and the ocean, from both sides of the house. You can see the sun in the morning from your balcony, and the sunset from the public corridor on your doorstep. The house has everything you need. It's 10-15min. walk to the old town and the beach. And the best part -lovely landlady Idàlia. Super reliable and welcoming, made me feel at ease and resolved any issues very quickly. Would stay again.
