If you mean Albufeira then it is lovely it's a pity we stayed where we did.Please if you have any sense do not stay at Ouratlantico Apartments. The only person worth mentioning is Christina one of the receptionists she could not do enough for you.

Overall Resort Rating:

Excellent

Brilliant lively resort, great people watching and cocktails! Lots of souvenir shops and bars and restaurants on the strip. Take the land train to the old town which is still lively but more old fashioned and a lovely place for an evening stroll. Great meal right on the beachfront.

"Not the best place in Portugal"

Overall Resort Rating:

Good

Open quote

We stayed in the New Town which I would say was pretty average. The Old Town seemed to be better but it was a taxi ride away and the queues for the taxis coming home put us off of a proper night out there. Our nights out in the New Town were enjoable but there were not as many places to go and it was all a bit samey. There was a really nice restaurant on the crossroads that we went to a lot, the food was delicious - especially the garlic prawns!!

allthough most of the beach is shelly and hard underfoot there is a little gem behind the rocks to the East of albufeira beach sand is golden and the sea is divine. the night life is extraordinary with plenty of bars and clubs. the food is delicious i suggest the steak house on the strip (the name escapes me but it is excellent) all kinds of water sports are available througout the venue. a must see place.

"Very good!!"

Overall Resort Rating:

Very Good

Open quote

The bottom end of the strip is 5 mins walk and I would recommend Wild and Co bar as they have live bands on every night. If you go to the old town, get a taxi as it only cost us 3.90 euros and took 5 mins to the square. The beaches are very nice but Praia de Oura beach is very pebbly but good for entertainment... There are a few karaoke bars at the top end od the strip which are good for a laugh!

Resort was not great - the strip is like something from Ibiza. Old town much nicer. Definetely recommend Zoo Marina - fantastic and kids will love it. Also the boat trips to the caves - well worth it. Beaches are great.

"Algarve Villa annex"

Overall Resort Rating:

Very Good

Open quote

Contrary to what was written in 2007 by a poor-paying guest who arrived immediately after a storm and did not give the hosts time to restore the property..... the 'Villa Darling' was immediately restored and upgraded after the storm. Where can you get a private pool, calm healing surroundings and lush gardens at the price of a 3-star hotel? The accomodation was very comfortable, clean and with a weekly maid service. The view was spectacular and we were able to choose from 3 very good restaurants nearby as well as a local supermarket. we would recommend this property as great value for money.

Clean resort split mainly between 'the strip' and the old town. Old town more relaxed atmosphere and better restaurants. Beaches great and there are plenty of trips eg water parks or sightseeing to be done from this resort.
