The vibe. The place is like a heritage one. The stay was very comfortable. The owners are lovely, friendly and the whole stay was very smooth. The place is very calm and peaceful. Good breakfast was served. It is not a hotel with full services and facilities, but just perfect if you are there to relax and to tour the area of Lagos, Albufeira, Faro. We rented a car, and it was very convenient to tour and parking was perfect and easily accessible.

FAQs about hotels in Algarve

Sun and Fun in the Algarve

A paradise of yellow sandstone cliffs and turquoise waters that's full of green golf courses and seasoned with delicious food and rich history, the Algarve region in Portugal has lively spots, quiet corners, and inland areas that well deserve a visit. From the banks of the Ria Formosa lagoon in the east, to the high cliffs of Sagres on the southwest tip of Europe, the region is a great option for a sunny holiday and Booking.com will help you find the best hotels in the Algarve.

The name of this Portuguese region comes from the Arabic Al-Gharb, meaning ‘The West’, but before being part of the Moorish empire, it was inhabited by ancient tribes, and successively by Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Romans, and Visigoths.

When it officially became part of Portugal, it gained fame as a centre for trade. The beautiful city of Lagos still offers a picturesque and colourful historic centre that recalls its important position in the area.

Flying into Faro Airport puts the whole region at your fingertips. The best all-inclusive hotels in the Algarve include their own golf course, an activity very popular in this region. If you just want sea and sun, then keep an eye on our deals for the best beach hotels in the Algarve.

    I loved the direct sea view and terrase towards the Atlantic Ocean. They are worth to pay a little bit more. The colours in the room were in good harmony. The location was on the hotel street "Praia da Rocha" in the city of Portimao. The huge fine sand beach is very near, just to step stairs down from the street. The hotel JUPITER has also a large swimming pool. The breakfast at the large restaurant was fantastic with lots of fresh choice of healthy food and even with a glass of champagne to choose. The Xmas Party of 50 persons was in the evening including a buffet dinner with good food of many choices. The service of drinks was quick and polite. The personnel at the reception were very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely recommend JUPITER HOTEL to my friends visiting Algarve, Portugal. In autumn the prices are very reasonable, and often the weather is good here.

    The reasons why we always come back to São Miguel are the Human and Landscape factors. We love the bungalows in the freshness of the pinewood forest, the proximity of incredible cliff beaches the restaurant and the care in all things. On the other side of the balance, is the Team, young, intelligent and attentive. A special thank to Mr Raj, whom we had the privilege to know, and to attend to His Yoga Class, in camp. A mention to Mr Edson with His Bicycle library, in camp. We will be back. Thanks.

    Really fun, lovely town. We loved the old town, it was filled with character. Lots of little shops and stalls and every type of cuisine you could possibly want! Amazing bars and restaurants to suit all needs. The beaches were lovely and large. The sea was quite rough but all main beaches were life guarded.

    Faro is compact enough to see in 2 days.

    Faro is compact enough to see in 2 days. The old town is lovely and will be better when the derelict buildings are renovated . Restaurant is good. We liked O Castelo , the food was excellent, service first class and the Fado singers and players added to the lovely atmosphere . Avoid the little tourist train. It was very uncomfortable/ bumpy. There was no audio explanation on the 45 minute trip which took us round uninteresting areas of the town.

    Tavira is very pretty. The architecture of the older buildings is beautiful and every effort is made to keep the period properties as they should be. The River makes a wonderful place to sit and admire its beauty. There are many restaurants to choose from serving fresh fish and delicious Portuguese food.

    Aljezur is a great location to visit if you like nature, surfing, good food, a slower pace of life. I would recommend staying in Aljezur, getting a car to drive around to different beaches and villages where you can find good restaurants. In the evening, in Aljezur, always book ahead a table.

    Amazing place lots of restaurants and bars but it is all spaced out if you have good legs this is no problem. Of course you can hire a car and drive out at night but if you want to drink you need to walk as we didn't see 1 taxi on our 9 night stay. Find accommodation near to Mareta beach as that's about central. Very young area lots of fit surfing people day and night which is great. There are 3 beaches within walking distance Tonel is the one for surfing if you can do!! Mareta beach is the nicest of the 3. There are many more you can drive to. The fort is interesting. Can be very windy as it is on the cliff top! We love the Algarve the whole lot of it I am addicted to it.

    Been visiting Alvor for yrs.

    Been visiting Alvor for yrs. This trip was the third this year. Alvor not for the party animal. But some great nights to be had. Walking along boardwalk and other pathways a must. The people are delightful, always smiling. Plenty of taxis to be had. For people with mobility issues Alvor might prove a challenge due to streets being steep,uneven footpaths that are also narrow. You will be spolt for choice regards restaurants,bars,entertainment and all the fish dishes you would like.
