Find the Best Albufeira Hotels

Had a stay in the Muthu Oura Praia Hotel with an all inclusive package Absolutely great place to stay. Centre to everything. Rooms were spotlessly clean with comfy beds & great amenities - everything you would need for your stay. Gluten free diet was catered for at all meals with the chefs going above & beyond to ensure I had tasty meals. Every staff member that we met was friendly & helpful.

Lovely hotel. Friendly staff. The rooms are spacious. Ours had a sea view which was really something else. Two glorious beaches are nearby. Breakfast was varied and really lovely. The pool was lovely..chilly but hey, to be expected. Now for the downside….there are building works being carried out opposite the hotel. We were pre warned that they may be ‘some’ noise. But this starts from 7am til 7pm….every day apart from weekends. There is also work being carried out to the left of the hotel which is also on weekends…. Would love to say the noise was minimal. But it really wasn’t. Thank heaven for ear buds! The sun beds are pretty worn out…! Not the hotels fault but the guests staying here were SO territorial about them. I heard one set of people running me and my husband down for ‘stealing’ the sun beds off another couple…..really…..?!?! They were empty at 3pm so we had the audacity to lie on them….They then proceeded to get up early to claim them back with towels, reclaiming their territory…we laughed about it. Pathetic really. Anyway, I’d recommend the hotel, aside from the building works and rubbish sun beds. It’s lovely. Really….

This 5-star hôtel is quite new so they are still putting the finishing touches on the private garden going down to the beaches. The service and the food, the swimming pools and amenities are already on par with other 5-star I've been to. A lot of the food is local (avocados, salads, fruits, fish) and is soooo good. The views are stunning from the rooms, the swimming pools, the Sea Sky outside lounge and the Paper Moon restaurant... Overall what I like the most is the feel of being surrounded by nature with the hotel's garden, greenery everywhere and the relatively small height of the buildings... Thank you to the staff for this memorable week in December, sun everyday and temperature around 20° during the day...

- Lovely cosy apartment, that looked even nicer and more modern than on the photos. - While not super big, the space has been very cleverly used and it felt like having my own mini home. - Kitchen is well equipped, so you can really use it to cook your own dinner (I just missed a colander to drain rice and vegetables, but I realise it must be impossible to cater for every individual guest's preferences). Enough pots, pans, cutlery, even a corkscrew and dishcloth are provided. No spices, oil or sponge though, so (quite understandably) you need to buy or bring a few things yourself. - Lovely balcony, sunny most of the day and I could even watch the sea from there. - Good location, as long as you're fine being near ”The Strip” (and not so near the old town). Very close to the beach. In a central but quiet location (at least in February, but my guess is that it's just far enough from the Strip to be reasonably quiet in busier months as well). About a 10 minute walk from Santa Eulalia bus stop from where you can take a bus to Faro (and other places on that route, such as Vilamoura and Quarteira). It's about a 40 minute walk to the main bus terminal. There's also a city bus, but I never really worked out that system (taxis are everywhere too and apparently not very expensive either). - Great value for money. I extended my stay by 2 more nights and certainly recommend this place. While I very much enjoyed my stay here, there are a few small things that could possibly still be improved. Those are really just small details though! - I'd suggest putting a few extra bin bags in the apartment. Cleaning takes place every 3 or 4 days, which is totally fine. But especially if guests cook in the apartment, the rubbish contains food rests and starts smelling after a few days. It's no problem to change the bag myself, but having a few extra bags in the room would be helpful. - There's an illuminated ”emergency exit” sign above the apartment's entrance door, on the inside the room. That's really annoying at night, because it's like always keeping one light switched on in your bedroom. Can't those signs be placed outside the room? I ended up covering it with a dark T-shirt every night, which solved the problem too;-) - There's no socket near the bed.
