Gigantic location *

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

As written in other reviews, this hotel has a dream location. In the rooms, there's sound, gorgeous view of the Atlantic Ocean, the other side Albufeira old town with a lot going out, there are for every taste. Beach clean and fine sand, clean water, unfortunately only 17 degrees. Restaurant was clean and pleasant, breakfast was not so great (fries, fried beans, bacon, and so on) but better English. The dinner was varied, but not so tasty. Next time I would book without the meals, there were 1000 lots of opportunities for breakfast or lunch and dinner. The rates were not higher than at home and you the choice. Other than that, I would highly recommend the hotel (outside not nice, but everything else made up for it)
