This stretch of coastline is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Barlavento. But Maria Luisa Beach isn't the area's only drawcard. Falesia Beach, Vilamoura Marina, and Albufeira Old Town Square are some other worthwhile sights close by.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (810 reviews)
Location was excellent - easy reach of beach and restaurants and we had a wonderful holiday. However, the Nau Swimming Pool was over-run with children and families so we did not use it unfortunately. Further negatives were that there was a dirty nappy left on the balcony from previous occupants and we had to continually go and ask at reception for towels (not enough were supplied and were not replaced until we asked) and also for toilet roll (not enough was supplied and it was not replaced without asking). Another annoying issue was again regarding the supply of the shower gel and body lotion - we had to ask at reception for this to be replenished when it ran out but this should have been done automatically without asking during the cleaning/ normal maintenance. Also, the patio doors on the lower floor where the bedrooms were did not lock so we ended up having the shutters closed for the whole stay which was not ideal.

10/10 Exceptional! (46 reviews)
A very pretty small hotel in a beautiful town.
We booked two superior rooms. They were quite disappointing. So small there weren’t even night tables next to the bed. Rug and floor felt almost grubby. There is a strange outdoor space with a table and chairs but it’s in a bit of a cave. Obviously one of its main purposes is to allow people to smoke. Reception was marginally polite. In no universe is this a 5 star property. Food was very good but all in all I would not recommend
