I was one of the first travellers to arrive for the season and they were still setting up the hotel, but they went out of their way to make certain that my room was able to meet my needs. The shower is great and the beds are very comfortable.
The views are amazing and the breakfast is worth the cost

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.

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.
The apartment was very clean and had everything I needed for my two week stay. Stephane went beyond the call of duty, even taking me back to the airport my 2nd day there as my luggage did not arrive with me the day before. He consistently texted to make sure everything was good in the apartment and that I had supplies. The short walk to the beach was wonderful and then the walk on the beach to old town was fabulous. I highly recommend this apartment. Great location; close to shops, restaurants, markets, beach, and host—all wonderful!
Fantastic hotel, located 10 minutes walk from Albufeira old town. Close to many bars, restaurants, and supermarkets.
The room is very big and clean, the bed is very comfortable, Wifi connection is very good, and the room
has a very nice and clean bathroom. Breakfast is very good as well.
The owners are very communicative and nice, super friendly, and were always attentive and asked if we needed any help with anything. We really felt at home :)
I loved this place !!! I will come back for sure when I am back to Albufeira.
Very clean apartment and well equipped kitchen.
Comfortable for 2-4 people.
Location was great for us- 5-10 min walk to old town and beach down hill all the way - but remember you have to walk back up- hard to avoid hills in Albufeira!
Fabulous views from the balcony( loved that the balcony could be accessed from all the rooms)
Yana was a wonderful host, responds quickly to any queries and she was very accommodating to all our needs.
There was entertainment on Sunday night, I missed it because I didn't know it was free for all at the hotel. We never used the pool but it felt like a great tempurature, it's enclosed. Breakfast was great!! they had a lot and with a european and portugese flavor. Location cannot get anybetter than this hotel, on the beach, and walking distance to all of Albufeiras' old town and many restaurants. We loved it!!!
Pool was awesome! Not loads of sunbeds but we stayed for a weekend and when we needed a sunbed, we got one.
The views from our rooms were some of the best i have ever seen.
The reception staff were exceptional and so helpful and the cleaning and bar staff were helpful and happy.
Hotel was clean and well maintained.
Location was walking distance to Old Town and less then €4 to New Town so perfect for everyone.
Very good location, very close to the ocean and also the old town of Albufeira can be reached on foot easily. The staff was very nice and helpful. We decided to stay a day longer and we could stay in the same room. The pool is nice too. Market and bars just outside the hotel. There is a beautiful beach Falesia with smaller waves nearby. It can be reached in 10-15 minutes by car but I recommend it to everyone.
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,
The property is excellent and the staff are welcoming and helpful. Situated in an ideal area just on the outskirts of the Old Town which is a pleasurable walk. The beech is clean and can be accessed via the hotel. The best food is in the hotel restaurant and the service is outstanding. The view from the room was outstanding. We will definitely be returning. Thank you for a perfect stay.
Loved how central they are to the beach and to all the wee restaurants shops and the main strip only a 10/15 min walk to the old town which has some stunning views along the way it's really well worth walking. taxis and the tuk tuks are always about so it's easy to get back of you don't wish to walk back. we are planning our next trip and will most definitely be booking here again.
The hotel is in an ideal location. It is at the heart of Albufeira Old Town. We really enjoyed the rooftop bar which lets you overlook the beach and enjoy cocktails in the sun. Our room was small but we weren’t in it much and it was cleaned to perfection every day. All staff were extremely helpful and I would highly recommend staying here.
This property is in an excellent location. It is attached to the marina where there is two markets and plenty of restaurants and cafés. The tourist train stops right out front of the property and you can take that into old town for just a few euros. We believe this is probably the best place to stay in all of Albuferia.
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
A small but nice room with a balcony above Albufeira's Old Town. Even though it's only a short walk from the party mile the room was very quiet. The balcony had a great view over the city and the sea. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Location was central to Old Town and the New Town. Groceries and restaurants all close within short walking distances. Nice that pool was filled outside - made relaxing in chairs outside much nicer. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Beautiful hotel, friendly staff and nice breakfast. We stayed in room 212 and it had a really nice beach view and looked out towards old town. Liked it so much we stayed an extra night and wished we could have stayed longer.
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.
Beautiful clean hotel , friendly staff , lovely pool , great facilities, rooms excellent .
Very good breakfast too.
Close to strip , cheap taxi to old town
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
