Hotel
Vila Gale Albacora
Quatro Aguas, 8800-901 Tavira, Portugal – Great location - show map
the fact that the hotel is built in an old fish industry village gives it lots of charm

Beautiful location just outside of Tavira if you want to be in nature. Pool was very clean and clear. Comfortable beds.

Everything. We continued our trip across Portugal and stayed at another 4 Vila Gale hotels.

The breakfast is good with an omelette bar and fresh bread and fruit. Best thing about this place is taking the boat to the beach with the restaurants. We had a fabulous meal at one of the beach front restaurants.

Proximity & boat direct from hotel to Island w amazing beach. Quiet place Kind staff-especially dining room Excellent breakfast. Dinner food was good. Many Portuguese & European guests Turkish steam

breakfast was superb, free toiletries the program said, I suggest you don,t call it that, since only fluid soap at the sink and in the bathtub.

The grounds are lovely to walk around. Pool is lovely. Many spa services available. There are great trails out the back. The site is quiet and contemplative. Loved that you can catch a boat to the beach right behind the hotel. Breakfast was a great bargain. Eating outside, we were joined by the little sparrows...which was very sweet, if a bit pesty.

The staff in particular were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble.

If you enjoy a mildly remote natural location then this hotel may be for you (if not look elsewhere). If you want an alternative to the excellent hotel pool, then take the hotel run boat service which takes guests to the barrier island (5 mins) which has a tremendous beach with bars/restaurants or to a more remote location with just one. The walk into Tavira town takes 30 mins or 10 mins drive. The rooms were pleasant with either river or garden views, the staff were all great, very friendly & welcoming. Restaurant food has a la carte or buffet style options with excellent house wines. If you enjoy cycling then this hotel may be great spot for you.

We liked the swimming pool and spa area. The food was pretty good. And the staff is kind and nice.
