The room was okay, could be cleaner and had this musty smell. The property was well maintained but the rooms could use some improvement. The pool area was really nice and the dining options by the pool was very nice and affordable. Overall the stay was good but the rooms could use some upliftment and some extra attention to cleanliness. (The fans weee blowing dust bunnies across the room)

Lovely accommodation. Clean and had everything I needed. Dishwasher, iron and ironing board, fridge, freezer both a decent size. Apartment was cleaned at least 3 times for the week. Towels replaced every time. I had an incident with ants and the cleaners were straight over and cleaned up. No further problems. The whole complex was spotless and lit at night. Pool and food was amazing. And the staff were very attentive. There are 3 pools at the complex but I only saw 1 As this pool was right outside my room. Will definitely stay again.

This is a lovely property. They work very hard to maintain it as well. We had a few small issues with the apartment that were addressed immediately. The cleaning and maintenance staff was very good. The kitchen was properly supplied with most of the necessary cooking tools. The only real downside is if you have mobility issues its not the place. It is not really promoted as being built on the side of a hill so there are alot of stairs. The upside is we had a beautiful view from our balcony

We stayed 2 nights, first night was a disaster as it took us ages to find the apartment in the dark. Then the hearing did not work so we had to wear our clothes to bed with 2 blankets. Then the neighbours downstairs were fight h and shouting for from 3am to 5am. My wife was scared but we jitsbstaye din apartment did not confront them about the noise. 2nd day was better nice relax by pool and quiet and good night sleep.
Would we come back again would depend on time of year and a different room. Apartment is a bit outdated a bit suits a family for a wk.

Perfect for 3 night getaway with teens

Perfect place for family three nights away with teenagers.We spent most of the days at the pool by the Casa Azul, lovely breeze, never busy, and handy snack bar for drinks and food right there. Its a little hilly so prob not the best for anyone with mobility issues. Ate breakfast both mornings at the Alfarroba restaurant. (Tip: ordering off the a la carte menu is better value than the buffet but that nay have been because we got the buffet one day as it seemed to be finishing up). Mini market on the site stocks anything you need. Kids played mini golf one evening. The resort is not really walking distance to anything in the heat…maybe had it been cooler and we were there longer, we would have attempted to walk to old town. Ubers were about 6-8 euro into the old town or the strip and were easy enough to get- no waiting. We booked a three bed apartment that was in great condition but had slight sign of wear and tear, mainly with the light in the bathroom not staying on and one plug socket that had come away from the wall. Apartment had everything you could possibly need (washer, ironing board, good kitchen with dishwasher). Bathrooms seemed pretty new and shower had great water pressure. It was advertised as having one bathroom but when we got there, there were two which was a pleasant surprise with 5 people! Tip 2: We ordered groceries and food via Uber eats since it was late when we got there. Overall I was delighted with our time here and the facilities- perfect for us!

Spacious 3 bedrooms villa

We recently stayed in a 3-bedroom villa with a private pool. The villa itself was spacious and comfortable, with plenty of room for our group. While the furniture was a little outdated and could use some refreshing, it didn’t take away from our enjoyment. The real highlight was having our own private pool.

Entire resort was closed

The reason I booked this property was because I was travelling alone and wished to stay on-site where possible in a safe, self contained site.

Check-in at 17:00 was inconvenient
All of the bars in the village were closed, the main pool was drained, and the heated pool was not heated. All of the buildings surround any pool that had water in were closed and locked with no access to anything offered in the 'village'. Signage on each building would send you to another building that was also closed with a sign sending you to another closed site - photos attached
The on-site supermarket was the only possibility of getting any food or drink. This was also closed most hours unexpectedly, and not stocked. There was no food on the shelves - photos attached
Midway through the stay it was clear someone had come to clean the room which consisted only of making the bed. However, any food and drink I had bought from the on-site shop or from other shops I had to find outside of the area was taken out of my room. I asked reception to give the items back to which they said they would find the cleaner, however would never get back to me saying they couldn't find them. I reiterate - Food and Drink I bought ON SITE, the ONLY food I managed to find, was taken from my room.
Effectively, this 'village' was closed. There was no one else around, drained pools, closed bars, empty shop.

Great place for a girls weekend to catch up with friends.
Spacious accommodation with a fab balcony
Just a few things to note. Accommodation units are all individual so you don’t know quite what you will get. Units can be difficult to find as it’s a very large complex. Signage and lighting trying to navigate in the dark is difficult especially as check in not until after 5pm. Holiday was at the end of the season and knowing the apartments were quite a walk from the main town we were disappointed that the restaurants were closed. It would have been good to have been notified about this as we needed to go out of the complex for food. Pool areas were lovely and big shout out to the lovely young lady working the bar and snack bar on here own.

We stayed here about 10 years ago and the place was immaculate. This time I felt that the apartments were a bit tired looking and in general the resort could do with a clean up. The apartment had everything you needed and was comfortable enough. We had a. Issue with the door not working in afternoons which appeared to be due to the heat which was never resolved.

The apartment is located directly alongside a dual carriageway. The traffic noise was constant throughout the night. I complained and requested a move, however was told that there was nothing available. The only solution was to purchase some ear plugs!
I was part of a large family group and the rooms were not consistent. Some being very modern but others quite dated and it’s a lottery which one you are allocated.
The complex itself is quite a distance from the town so taxis are needed if you want to leave or explore.

Stayed for one night, the apartment was comfortable. The one downside to checking in was the timing was quite late at 5pm. however as it’s was only one night, and the complex is huge, I tried to walk to reception twice in the space of 90 minutes upon checking into my room and became completely lost. As a solo traveller, being right at the top of the hill in the back end of nowhere, I didn’t feel the safest throughout the night. Being closer to the reception / main entrance area would have felt a little more secure. I didn’t get to try the amenities as it was a very early 10am check out time also. All in all a comfortable bed for the night, and great views from the balcony.

Wrong time of year!

Our apartment was spacious and had a well equipped kitchen with a large fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Basic dish soap and dishwasher tablet was provided. The apartment had a strange, musty odour which smelled a bit like stale smoke. Also, due to the weather, it was cold and felt a bit damp. The heaters all worked so that solved that problem. The sofa was not very comfortable to sit on and the beds were rather hard. The beds only had sheets and blankets which kept us warm but were a bit scratchy. Generally, I think in the summer the apartment would work a lot better as the windows would be open, the interior would be cool and there were three showers. At this time of year it all felt a bit chilly and musty. The pools and complex are well cared for and lovely. The staff were all very helpful and the walk into Albufeira only takes about 15 minutes.

A really nice place for relaxing winter sun. Comfortable apartment, well equipped and priced very reasonably. Only complaint is that the onsite maintenance work - presumably done while site is largely empty - meant that there was almost constant masonry drilling noise from about 8.30 to 4.30 every day. Detracted from pleasure of sitting out on lawn in sunshine. Otherwise excellent.

Great Accommodation, Less Great Position

We suffered a huge electric storm the night we stayed and water was driven under the sill of a window, soaking a sofa. That apart, accommodation was excellent. However, the complex is adjacent to a busy road and traffic noise was an issue for us. Also well outside of Albufeira. Not a problem in January when plenty of parking was available, but in height of summer would be problematic.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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

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.

Good resort for a relaxing holiday

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 .

Could have been great!

The apartment was great apart from a few things missing! i.e. cheese grater, baking trays.
The balcony big as it was, was so dirty, grass growing up between the tiles, broken chairs and sunbeds!
Balcony tables took some cleaning to enable us to eat off them. such a shame.

better than expected

Arrived here after a slight Easyjet delay & was pleased that we were allowed to check in & actually get into our room at 2pm, as previous reviews had said it was 5pm. The rooms were a very good size & have everything you could need including a washer & dryer, toaster, coffee maker, microwave. We stayed in a 2 bed apartment & 1 room was ensuite. The rooms were clean but showed some signs of wear, particularly the floor which had several markings on the tiles.
We were given fresh towels daily if required, toilet roll & beds made, apart from Saturday. We left on Sunday so not sure if they do not work the weekend.
We were pleased to be given acomodation near to reception as the area is VERY steep hills. Our room backed onto one of the pools which was not too busy, despite the usual towels being placed out very early ! The whole area is well maintained & quite pretty, We walked around to see the other pools from the map reception had handed us.All nicely presented with the main pool having some activities so that made it the noisiest. At the top of the hill the blue building is a restaurant/ snack bar & this is the only 1 we used. Staff here very helpful & friendly--they should maybe train some of the reception staff !
We are over 50 & did not attempt to walk into the Old town --I don't know how this can be achieved in 25 minutes in that heat. We walked to a nearby supermarket as the shop on the site sells just the basics. We used taxis to get to old town & to Algarve shopping.

Not what I was expecting!

I really enjoyed my time here! Went for a week, in a superior apartment (room 392) and was expecting something small, but with the bits that we'd need (fridge, oven etc)... On arrival, we were greeted with something quite lovely. The apartment was massive for 2 people, it had a fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, full living room with sofa bed, TV, dinner table and chairs. Large bedroom, with chest of drawers, cupboard and safe. It also had a hairdryer, ironing board and clothes drying rack. Most special of the lot was our balcony, it was huge. It was bigger than the apartment, had 3 sunbeds, tables, chairs and had wonderful views over all around. We were 2 mins from 1 of 4 pools... There's a quiet pool that the staff didn't tell us about up by the Blue Restaurant at the top of the resort, which is smaller and a lot quieter than the main three.
Plenty of amenities on site, pools, bars, restaurants. Some of which provide live entertainment, which is a nice touch. There are pool tables, table football and other bits to keep you entertained. The resort is 25 min walk into Albufeira Town, it's a nice easy walk down. There is a supermarket on site at the resort, but another slightly bigger one about a 10 min walk away, simply turn right out of the resort, walk down past the 'exercise park' and it's on the right before you reach the roundabout.
Staff are lovely, their English is exceptional, they are very accommodating. I'd 100% be back. We went just before peak season.

Okay....ish.

Good size apartment all though it was in need of restoration and modernisation. The apartment had no air conditioning and we had no hot water for 3 days, the iron didn't work but did manage to get another one after asking a few times. Not to bad overall but would not choose to stay here again.

Nice week in the sun

Some apartments are tired and dated and it's a bit pot luck what you get as many I think are privately owned but they are adequate. The grounds and pool areas are lovely and well maintained.Staff and food at restaurant Pavilhao are great. Need a taxi to get to town although there is a shuttle bus at 10am and 5pm. Had a relaxed and enjoyable week

Great place, good for families

Clube Alberfeira exceeded my expectations. The apartment was excellent, very spacious and well appointed. It had every bit of equipment and gadgets that you could possibly need incuding a dishwasher. The views were lovely from our apartment and we had our own bit of garden as well as a patio. We had our towels changed and bins emptied daily. They were also cleaned every day. The complex has 3-4 pools and nice restaurants, and the menus looked good although we didn't eat there. The only drawback is it is a very large complex and is very hilly. We had a long walk from reception with lots of steps and hills. If we went into town we would get a taxi back and get dropped off at our apartment. For anyone with walking difficulties it would be wise to request an apartment nearer to reception.

A nice clean development,

A nice clean development with well kept grounds and pools.
Not far from the old town. Taxis are quick , cheap and easy to get everywhere.
My only thing was the beds are not that comfortable. I had to put a couple of blankets over my mattress. But I would stay there again.

Quiet, relaxing holiday!

The appartments are well kept and located in attractive grounds. They are a 25 minute walk from the old town of Albufeira (although a taxi is just 5 euros) so if you want to be surrounded by bars and restaurants in the locality, then this complex is not for you, it is also very spread out and hilly, but if you want a quiet, relaxing break as a couple or family then I would definately recommend these spacious appartments and beautiful grounds!

Nice area, only €5 to Albufeira which was useful

Pleasant apartments in a quiet area - close to Albufeira by taxi (€5) which has many good restaurants. Mostly friendly staff, taxi drivers very helpful. Lidl and Aldi were cheap and close by for self caterers.

Nice resort but exactly 1km out of town

Great place to stay. pools are clean and Restaurant does good choice of food. Resort is spread over a hill, we found it ok with our 3 kids but I'm sure others would moan! Resort also sits next to a main road so it's a taxi run into old town for 5€ each way or a 25 minute walk 😃

Great appartment but no internet

Top quality appartment situated on the hilly club albuferia complex 2mile out of town. It had everything appart from wifi which was available in the reception office for a fee (8mins walk down the hill). Staff were friendly and really helpful. Entrance to the appartment around the alleyways behind felt a bit lonely and dark at night especially if you are on your own. You definelty need a car or a bike! Most bars and restaurants are located in town which includes a walk down the side of the highway (ok during the day) or secluded path at the side. There's a resturant on site at the top of the hill but it was empty/closed during February when I stayed.

The apartment

The only disappointing thing about the apartment was the pull out ed, which was quite uncomfortable. Everything else was first class. It had everything we needed and was actually better equiped than I thought it would be.
