We were so excited to start our trip at Albufiera, the initial receptionist was nice and accommodating, he even let us check in early. Once we got to the room, we knew we were going to be using the sofa bed so we opened it to check it out. When we finally figured out how to get it open; we were greeted with a cockroach running around the entire bed. We finally were able to kill it and tried calling the reception desk and no one answered. So we walked down to the reception center, this place is huge with hardly any signs to show you where to go. And when we finally got there to complain at the reception desk, the younger female receptionist was so rude and stand offish. She asked if anyone was currently in the room and we told her no. We asked if we could get a ride back to pick up our things and she told us no one was available. It was such a long back to our room and when we finally got to the room to get our things, we ran into the maintenance staff leaving our room and as they walked back to their car we literally heard them mocking and making fun of us for being “scared” about cockroaches. Horrible experience.

Great place for a relaxing break. There are good facilities available, 4 pools, 2 good restaurants and a convince store. The accommodation is very spacious and well kept. Its about 25 mins walk from the town centre, along a well lite pathway.

The property itself (Villa Oleander) was fit for purpose, lovely size, great pool and hot tub BUT it wasn't clean. There are no glasses for wine/beer. No plastic glasses for outside to use by the pool. Only mugs and tiny slim glasses. All the dishes were dirty and there is a bad ant problem. They were crawling out of the kitchen drawers, the dishwasher and all over the work surface. It really wasn't clean at all. Ee arrived after the supermarket closed so couldnt even buy any washing up stuff and reception staff didnt care saying it wasn't their problem. We found the staff on site to be miserable and reluctant to help. After 3 complaints about the ants we were given a can of ant spray! Food at 2 of the restaurants on site (snack bar and one by reception) was great and staff were lovely. Walking (flat) into the old town took about 25 minutes and its away from main road. Taxis are cheap too. We had a great time as we made the most of it but disappointed as it could have been better if more effort had been made. It's not a cheap villa so avoid and spend your money elsewhere!

We were only staying for one night, and the clothes dryer was not working. After letting the front desk know they moved us to another unit where the dryer was good but one of the rooms had no working heat and flickering light in one of the bathrooms. Moving rooms with two kids at 10pm at night is not ideal much less to have to do it twice!

Beds were extremly uncomfirable as they were hard, as was the uncomfortable couch...microwave plate was broken, the oven in the cooker wasn't working properly..the fridge froze the food..it was a big apartment but very very outdated, no basic items like washing up liquid, outside patio was filthy...tv channels not working properly due to poor quality of wifi...very disappointing after paying 1200 euro for 8 nights the resort it self was lovely, pools well maintained..the restaurant castle aszul was a lovely place to visit, food beautiful..customer care was excellent...Gilson looked after us very well, very pleasant and so helpful..

Lovely complex
The welcome was warm and friendly and the complex huge but you can take short cuts via the stairs instead of using the roadways. We had a top floor 1 bed apartment which was a bus ride away from reception up a steep hill. The apartment had stunning views, clean and spacious. House-keeping came in everyday to clean up and change towels. One comment I would make is that there is no complimentary tea/coffee/milk sachets or washing up liquid/ tea towels to get you started on arrival until you can get to the shop. The restaurant’s on site were reasonable priced and the 4 pools clean. Was able to get sun beds at 11am no problem. Uber will become your best friend as that’s the only way to get around and into Albufeira old town the beach and surrounding attractions.

great sized apt and close to the pool. Email communication could have been better, sent 3 emails to confirm cot and transfer from the airport but had to end up getting a regular taxi which was twice the cost. The restaurants were nice and reasonable. The front desk staff were very helpful and pools were nice and lots of activities. Would stay again

We have stayed at the property a couple of times previously and always enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately on this occasion one of the bedrooms had an invading troop of ants, which were on the walls, ceiling and floor. When raised this with reception, just after arriving, who said housekeeping would be around asap. After two hours a tin of ant stray was delivered and the guy left immediately. We dealt with it ourselves, by emptying the room, straying everywhere (inside and out) and remaking the beds. Rest of the stay was fine. Just disappointed with the start. Making us re-think future stays.

Nice property, managers were great. we stayed two nights. Only small issues, unit was near the highway with some road noise and the cold water valve in the shower continued drip when shut off. One major issue was the smell of the cleaning product used, it was overwhelming. we had to air out the unit and keep the bathroom door closed. The resturant in the complex has good food and great service!

not a good start, on arrival at reception we were informed that there was no apartment available for the 14 nights booked. was offered alternative of 5nights in apartment (we accepted under protest with hope they would find) another for remainder of stay. bad news is,this is a very hiilly resort, apartment was located at the top of resort & on second floor (many stairs).although on my booking i informed the resort that I was dissabled.. alternative apartment was eventually found,,but had flooding in bathroom due to blocked drain (bathroom ,bedroom & hall flooded). not a suitable resort for the disabled at first apartment we had to taxi in &out of resort as we struggled with getting up & down hills. just to mention lastly on second day of arrival we shopped for several days in advance (including frozen food) only to find that the freezer wasn't working & beyond repair without spares) wasted food & money

Awful first room, improved once moved
We were given room 132 to start, to day this was unacceptable is an understatement. Wouldn’t even get a rating, and this is considered 4*. Asked to move in the morning, had to go back 3 times to see various levels of manager, eventually changed room. This was more like it, however poor score from me as we lost half a day messing around. The one time we asked reception for advice we were greeted with a shrug of the shoulders. Basically if you get the right room this place is nice, make sure you ask for a room up by the heated pool.

Nice and Quiet
We arrived late 09.35pm should have been there at 3pm due to delay in leaving at the airport. Staff were polite at the reception desk but could have smiled a bit more. We were told that the restaurant was open till 10.30pm so that we could get something to eat but when we went to restaurant it was closing but thankfully the staff there were very nice and served us. The apartment was very clean. The only thing that I could fault about it was that we didn't get any sunshine into it during the day or evening. We had cleaners in every day. The Pool and facilities were very clean and the lads had a great time at the pool daily. The staff at the restaurant beside the pool were very accommodating and friendly.

Great resort for a relaxing holiday. But request an apartment back from the main road because of the traffic noise. The resort is a fair way from Albufeira - about 40 mins walk. There is a bus service with a stop outside the resort. Taxis are available bookable through reception.

Fabulous complex
Great facilities on site , 4 swimming pools , everything onsite you need . 20 mins walk into Old Town reccomend taxi back as up step hill . Only negative is complex is hilly so not suitable for anyone with mobility issues & no lifts in apartment. Locks which some are 3 floors . But could request ground floor I suppose . Would definitely go again we had 2 bed superior apartment. Very spaciousWhich 2 bathrooms , double settee bed in lounge so suitable for 6. Fridge , freezer , dishwasher . Utility with washer drier iron , ironing board & maiden . No washing brought home as decided do it all there due to weather being wet at home n could dry it there ! Myself , hubby & 3 teenagers loved it .
