Albufeira All inclusive Vacations

Right by the beach, staff was friendly and apartment hotel was ideal

Family friendly hotel at perfect location.

Queues for everything here. Checking took nearly an hour, queues for sun beds, for food (I’ll get to the food), for drinks (you can get only 2 drinks per person, so a family of 4 need 2 members to go to the bar). Always running out of drinks around the pool. The food was terrible. I stayed for 6 days and ate in the hotel only 4 times. The worst cuts of “meat” used which resulted in mainly bones. Oh and the “kebab hut” took 30 mins to queue up for and 1 per person. So again, if the family want to eat from a snack bar they all need to queue for half an hour together. Really not what you expect from a hotel billing themselves as 4 star. Staff didn’t want to help with anything. Bars closed at 11, but last orders at 10.30 and lights turned off and kicked out at 11. You can then head to the piano bar, but must pay for the same drinks that you were just consuming in the beach bar. Additionally a security guy (PSG logo on T-shirt) would come around the pool each day at 4pm and aggressively “police” what was happening: people messing about in the pool, throwing a ball in the pool (yes! A ball!), sitting on the side of the pool drinking. All things that people were allowed to do for the 7 hours that not a single staff member was there, but at 4pm suddenly there were rules. The staff were predominantly not Portuguese and there was a huge language barrier. Don’t stay here

Standard all inclusive hotel room. Sun a t

We stay here every year and the service is excellent. We always go full board, as the food is excellent.. I did notice that the cleaning service is not as good as previous years, but otherwise a lovely place to stay for the family.

We had a great stay at The Patio Suite Hotel. The two-bedroom suite was very spacious, which was perfect for a family and gave everyone plenty of room to relax. The rooms were comfortable, clean, and well maintained. Breakfast was very good, with a nice variety of options, and the breakfast staff were friendly and attentive. We also really appreciated the entertainment and activities for kids, which made the stay even more enjoyable for the whole family. The location worked well for us too. The beach is about a 20-minute walk from the hotel, making it easy to enjoy the Algarve coastline. Overall, a very comfortable and family-friendly hotel with spacious accommodations, good food, and great entertainment. We would definitely recommend it to families visiting the Algarve.
