Top Albufeira Hotel Reviews

Pine Cliffs Hotel, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve

Pine Cliffs Hotel, a Luxury Collection Resort, Algarve

10/10 Excellent
"This is a stunning resort that is relaxing and luxurious. The staff are friendly and the setting is amazing. The only downside is that they do not heat the swimming pools outside making them essentially unusable. The walk down to the beach with the elevator down, followed by elevated wooden walkway is incredible. Enjoying sunset at the champagne bar is unforgettable. The rooms are comfortable and full of charm. Wonderful experience!"

8/10 Good
"I had a great stay here! The accommodation was lovely, and the location was perfect. It’s conveniently located close to the Old Town, and if you want to explore the New Town, it’s around a 15-minute walk or just a 5-minute taxi ride away. The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I was even given a complimentary upgrade at check-in, which was such a lovely surprise! As a solo female traveller, feeling safe and comfortable is really important to me, and this accommodation exceeded my expectations. I felt safe and secure throughout my stay, and the staff were attentive, looked out for me and made me feel genuinely comfortable. I would definitely recommend this accommodation, especially to anyone travelling solo. Great location, lovely staff and a really positive experience overall. I would happily stay here again!"
