Set above the stunning red cliffs of Praia da Falésia, near the fishing village of Olhos de Água, this luxury resort offers captivating views of the Atlantic and the pine forests. The extensive grounds, covering approximately 72 hectares, are home to several hotel and apartment complexes, along with a wide range of leisure facilities, restaurants and bars.

Location & Surroundings

Albufeira’s centre is approximately 13 km away, with its charming old town of narrow lanes and boutiques, a variety of entertainment options and a wide choice of restaurants serving local cuisine.

Enjoy culinary highlights at a choice of 11 restaurants. Depending on occupancy and the season, the breakfast and/or dinner buffet is served at Jardim Colonial, with its outdoor area, and/or at the Mediterranean O Grill.

Other restaurants include Corda Café; O Pescador, serving local fish dishes (seasonal in part; advance booking required); the beach restaurant Maré; Piri Piri steakhouse (international cuisine); Clubhouse (international cuisine); Mimo Algarve (Portuguese cuisine); and Yakuza by Oliver, serving Japanese fusion cuisine. The hotel also has two bars.

The trip was perfect, from my arrival at the airport to the very end. The staff were very welcoming, but above all, you at spadreams were very helpful and attentive to the customer’s needs. Thank you very much. The only downside... the shuttle for the return journey! Even though I called the company to ask them to reschedule the airport shuttle (my flight was at 06:25 and the driver arrived at the hotel at 02:30, so I waited at the airport for 3 hours and 30 minutes). What bothered me was the operator’s rather annoyed tone when I made the request. The operator then brushed me off, saying there were other passengers, which was why the shuttle was so early. In the end, I was the only person on that shuttle. I absolutely know this unforeseen problem wasn’t spadreams’ fault, but I strongly advise you not to work with this airport shuttle company again.

Genau was ich gebraucht habe.
