The Vila Gale Cerro has everything that you would need at a resort hotel. We were able to enjoy the pool area which had food and drink options throughout the day. Pool was a bit cool but refreshing and large - perfect for a hot day. We had no problem finding pool loungers in the middle of the afternoon - plenty of space. The location of the hotel is also convenient for walking to the beach and nightlife. Room was clean and comfortable with a nice balcony. Great option for a stay in Albufeira!

Ola Albufeira

Excellent hotel with amazing and friendly staff. We really enjoyed our stay there, staff were very helpful. Hotel is located between the old town and new town of Albufeira, so you get to enjoy both areas. There are entertainments every night, organised by their manager known as Marcos, very nice gentleman. Hotel is not noisy at all, even with the nightly entertainments which start from 9pm until 11pm. Breakfast and dinner are lovely and very tasty. We had a great time in Albufeira and the hotel experience was the icing on the cake. We will definitely be returning there in the near future.

Highly recommend

We would highly recommend this hotel. We arrived earlier than check in time; they allowed us to use their amenities and pool while they readied a room. They upgraded our room to a better view. The pool was beautiful, clean, and refreshing. Though it was full, we could always find a place to sit. Staff were super friendly throughout the stay. Breakfast was typical of most hotels offering fresh fruit, croissants, cold cuts, cheese, bread, and granola. The surrounding area was full of places to eat and the hotel was walkable to the beach and tourist attractions. Parking was readily available at the hotel. The room was comfortable, spacious, and clean. Our biggest complaint was the shower which had a tub that was hard to get in/out of and had a small shower.

Sure! Here’s a polished version of your hotel review: ⸻ Clean and simple hotel with everything you need. I was traveling solo, but it seemed popular with families—lots of kids around. The pool area was great, and the daytime poolside restaurant had solid options (loved the burgers). My room was clean, though the walls were thin—I could hear doors slamming pretty clearly. Location was convenient, close to fast food spots and a grocery store. Overall, a good budget-friendly stay in Albufeira.

Ok hotel in good location for the old town. Have stayed here before and definitely needs a revamp it looks tired. The breakfast was not great with basic items not being restocked and staff seemed uninterested.Management really need to get a grip of the problems there. Around the pool the sun beds are well past there best and need replacing and food and beverage prices are crazy high 4euro for a small water 5euro for a coke 6euro for a local beer. Would rate this hotel as no more than a 3 star and would no longer stay here.

We arrived very late. All was satisfactory on check in but the room was so cold. It did have an Air conditioning unit which we used initially to heat the room. The problem was it was on the ground floor facing the road (back of the building) with high hedging . This made it difficult to attract sun into the room We woke feeling very cold. Breakfast was excellent

Plenty of good but not perfect

The hotel was in a perfect spot for us, two middle age gents over for the weekend playing some golf. Close enough to the old town craziness for a drink and some food but not on your doorstep. It is also in the perfect spot to pick up the main road and get to the courses. We never waited more than 2min for an Uber. The hotel itself was clean and the breakfast buffet served its purpose. We had the suite room, and for two, it was ridiculously spacious. Only slight gripe with the room was the lighting as it was quite time and only lamps for the bedroom/living room. Other than that I’d say better than a Premier Inn not as nice as Marriott. Now for the cons on our stay. - Steam room was out of service usually not a problem but given it was raining on the Saturday of our stay we did want to make full use of the facilities. - You had to buy and wear a swimming cap to use the indoor pool, I feel if this is a rule it should be stated upfront on the hotels facility listings. - The boiler had broken in the hotel so there was no hot water from 1-4pm during our trip. This was a bit of a pain when I used the gym at lunch and then had to have an ice shower. - Finally there isn’t a single iron in the hotel and for me that’s not good enough for a location with a 4* status. That said the staff were great and did get my few bit ironed in a 4-5hrs turn around granted for a fee. Overall though I would definitely stay again and use as a base for any Algarve golfing trip.
