The perfect hotel in the Algarve! My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and it was amazing. The rooftop pool and bar provided us with an amazing sunset and delicious drinks, and the breakfast served at the hotel was delicious with a wide variety of options. Within walking distance of the beach and shops! The hotel was also very clean, the staff were incredibly friendly, and they allowed us to leave our bags with them prior to check-in. My husband and I are planning on staying here again in the future!

Our superior room with a balcony was wonderfully comfortable. The small fridges in these rooms is a game changer as the hotel doesn’t have a restaurant ( although it does offer a cold buffet for breakfast) so stocking up with snacks for lunch etc is important. Olhao is a charming working fishing port with some good restaurants. These range from tapas to local vernacular through to higher end gourmet offerings. The front desk staff are good at recommending in form restaurants. The rooftop pool & bar is a great feature of this hotel. It affords panoramic views of the town and the islands of Armona ( great beaches a 10 minute ferry ride away) & Cultara. This is our fourth visit so we like it!

Really warm welcome and helpful tips for our stay in Olhao from the staff. The pool and rooftop bar area was relaxing with well priced drinks and snacks. The room was super clean with a powerful shower, effective blackout curtains, efficient air conditioning and very comfy mattresses and pillows. It is central and easy to access.
The room (standard size not premium) might be a little small for a long stay with not much storage space but this was expected from the stated size on hotels.com and suited us well for a short stopover. Would recommend to anyone travelling to Olhao. Thank you!

Nice pool area but no where to sit cos, as usual, people take over the loungers and leave their towels even when they leave for whatever reason so that others can’t use them.
We also had to hear all the flushing toilets from rooms above us.
Otherwise room was clean, beds comfortable but the pillows didn’t suit us

Lovely hotel, have stayed several times before and still an amazing stay. Big shout out to the lovely Diogo on reception with a lovely personality and smile. Only negative thing I noted on this stay is that the sunbeds on the rooftop are being unused by people who are leaving belongings and towels on them for several hours and this is not really acceptable.

They are always in a great mood and super freindly and helpful. The property was beautiful, modern, well maintained and spotless. The location of the property is axcellwnt. It is centrally located in Olhao. Just a few minutes walk to restaurants, the waterfront and also the ferry to go see the barrier islands. We were truly blown away with this hotel. Honestly, it is one of the best hotels weve stayed at and will definitley be going back. We love Olhao and we love this hotel and would recommend it to everyone.

This was our second stay at the hotel, and we continue to be thoroughly impressed. The property is maintained to such an impeccable standard that it feels brand new. Our room was quiet, comfortably air-conditioned, and featured an excellent bed. Housekeeping was outstanding, servicing the room daily with fresh towels, and the complimentary Wi-Fi was strong and reliable throughout the entire premises.The staff are fantastic—highly professional and fully fluent in English, which made communication seamless.
The hotel’s location is ideal, situated just a short walk from the vibrant marina front and its excellent selection of restaurants and bars. Additionally, the convenience of having both a pharmacy and a well-stocked supermarket immediately next door is a major plus for any last-minute essentials.
We are already looking forward to our third visit next year. Highly recommended. 10/10

A superb hotel right in the heart of Olhao and just a few minutes walk from all the delights on the seafront.

Having been to Olhao many times over the years, we preferred this location as it was more authentic compared to the other end of town which is now more touristy.

The hotel is modern, clean and well appointed. The rooftop bar is idyllic and offers great views over Olhao and the Ria Formosa - really quite spectacular. Nothing was a problem for the staff and they all worked hard to provide great service.

We look forward to staying again in the future!

Pure Formosa Concept Hotel is first class with staff friendliness and excellent service delivery being particularly prominent. From our arrival at the hotel, and at all times thereafter, we were greeted with genuine smiles and good wishes. This is a very well managed establishment.

The hotel is modern with real, continual and thorough cleanliness noticeable throughout all areas.

There is a major focus on healthy breakfasts with items being continually refreshed, in small amounts throughout serving times.

A lively rooftop bar offers impressive, panoramic views over Olhao and the wider Ria Formosa, and islands, that form a natural backdrop to the area.

Having visited Olhao twice-annually for many years, we consider that we have now found an excellent hotel that provides exactly what we seek on this beautiful part of The Algarve. We shall return - that is a given.

Our room was exactly as we expected which isn’t always the case when going off the pics provided. Decor throughout is very homely, reception, bar and breakfast areas all very nice and the breakfast itself was decent too.
Pool and roof bar were perfect for the temps we had (mid 20s) and were never over crowded. Couldn’t knock any of the staff either, all lovely people from reception staff to bar staff to cleaning staff we couldn’t have asked for much more. Would stay here again, no questions.
