The hotel provided daily cleaning which was nice and unusual to us for a 7-day resort stay. However, we were surprised that the unit didn't provide any tissue paper or paper towel for the kitchen. One single small cutting knife provided in the kitchen can barely cut through an apple. There was neither a dishwasher, nor dish washing liquid, sponge or kitchen towels. So, we had to purchase those basic items from grocery store. The beach was in a walkable distance from the hotel. But I didn't see any restrooms or shower/changing facility at the beach.

We just returned after staying 6 nights at Vila Gale Atlântico, 2 adults and 2 young kids. This has been our 6th trip to Gale so we know the are fairly well . The hotel is located by a lovely sandy long beach , ideal for families with young kids like us. Gale is a much quieter, nicer and dare me to say upper class area than the crowds found in Albufeira town, nice restaurants, beach bar and stunning clean beach , it really is a little gem . If you are looking for the cheap drinks, karaoke bars, late music bars etc then you must stay out of Gale as not for you, this is a quiet nice area. Vila Gale Altlantico - we booked a sea view suite , hotel location is excellent just 5 minutes walking to beach and with our favourite supermarket Apolonia down the road ( you can get Portuguese take away food to hotel/pizza/sushi, the quality of the food is very good). There is also a number of restaurantes walking distance from hotel although a car is highly reccommended to one exploring the area. Hotel—Reception: very beautiful decor, modern , luxurious feel . Check-in however very unimpressive, we were mostly just handled our keys, no information given so we had to return to Reception a number of times to ask for things . Also we felt staff a bit rigid. Room : very spacious, very clean , lovely see views from second floor. Yes decor a bit outdated but didn’t bother us. Facilities: nice pools, indoor pool was cold , games room, jacuzzi . Would definitely return .
