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.
This boutique hotel exceeded expectations. Not the least expensive but fairly priced given the level of attention the front desk, food/drink servers and staff provided. Facility is relatively new but its location was perfect for us. Cheap Uber rides to old town and other parts of the algarve with the beach just around the corner. We were able to disconnect and relax during the day and then pick different areas in the evening. Italian restaurant around the corner was quite good.
Great hotel,uber from faro Airport costs €27 euro,hour walk into albufeira old town, Uber €8 euro .Beside great beaches dotted along coast,great restaurants beside hotel in walking distance, shops and bus stop beside hotel .staff lovely and friendly,room lovely and comfortable and clean, had a balcony and walk in shower.breakfast amazing for a continental, also offer eggs, bacon mushrooms, tomatoes and cakes and crossiants, plenty to choose from huge selection.
we stayed in hotel california for 4 nights , rooms are very clean with a nice view on an old town Albufeira. the staff and the lady from reception very friendly and helpful . We had breakfast included which was always fresh. you have got a good selection of food and drinks . The Hotel is just right in the heart of Albufeira. All restaurants and pubs just right beside and 2 mins walk to the beach. highly recommended:)
Beautiful area, nice short walk to the beach and lovely restaurants. Everything was wonderful in the apartment, very well equipped, home from home and all the staff were lovely and very helpful.
Everything accessible by cheap Uber rides, marina €5 and Old Town €8.
We will be back as soon as we can book it again, would have re-booked before we left for another 2 weeks but our dates weren't available yet.
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.
Close to both the old town (4 euro Uber) and the new town strip (5/6 minute walk)
Nice and modern hotel
Very very clean and the rooms were nice but ours was abit small but I noticed some other rooms were a lot bigger so I’d make sure you let them know you don’t want a box room. Great value for money if you want a cheap 3 star with a great location.
Hotel Location was perfect. Cleanliness was very high standard. Rooms were very spacious and perfectly equipped. Staff (most) were exceptional. 6-7 minute walk to strip. 35 minute walk to Old Town. 5 mins walk to nearest beach (small but has beds & parasols & restaurant). 12 minutes to bigger beach and boardwalk. Definitely 4 star quality.
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.
A real Epic stay.
The ranking of 5 stars is well deserved. The entire hotel, the land around and the walk to the beach is just perfect.
Location is extremely good having everything in vicinity in case you feel that some things are not suitable for you.
The stuff are paying attention to details and the service they offer is up to standard.
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.
Perfectly situated between the old town and Albufeira strip, so had the best of both worlds without walking to far. About 25 mins walk either way or 10 mins to old town down the beach. WiFi was good. View from balcony was lovely and you could hear the sound of the sea. Would definitely recommend this place.
Everything from the breakfast served with lots of varieties, excellent customer service, the daily cleaning of the room, the pool not too crowded, proximity to supermarkets mobility in getting out is easy etc. I could go on about my experiences. Just loved the hotel and amazing stay in Portugal.
The location is great walking distance to the beach and old town. Really easy to find and get to, bus stop close by. The staff really made it a good experience and cleaned the bathroom often. The staff gave good advice of what to do in Albufeira. The hostel also helps with booking tours.
Lovely hotel situated between the old town and new town. Nice 15-20 minute stroll either way or cheap taxi ride. Hotel was nice and clean, friendly staff, nice pool. Didn’t eat at the hotel so can’t comment on food. I would stay here again 😊
The hotel was situated a stones throw from the beach, 10 min walk from Old Town and 20 min walk from Strip.
Clean and set in lovely gardens. The best hotel breakfast we have ever had, fantastic selection and quality food.
It was in the heart of the old town, with lots of shops and restaurants, and all the whitewashed buildings, etc. The location was excellent (except for the no parking, but I can understand it given the surroundings)
The pool area was lovely! The wait staff around the pool area were good too! The cocktails were well made but pricey for Portugal ! The entrance of the hotel was fair ! The Hotel was spotless and comfortable
