Algarve Condos | Places to Stay in Algarve

April 28, 2023 Vergie Nakamoto

The Algarve's sunny shores offer perfect escapes for all types, from those seeking the hot nightlife of flashy, energetic Lagos to those desiring secluded stays in rambling Sagres. Portugal's most southerly region offers historical attractions in former Moorish capital Silves and fascinating Tavira, great golf, fabulous beaches from Praia da Luz to Armacao de Pera, thermal springs at Caldas de Monchique, and miles of limestone caves and grottoes, cliffs and bays along its rugged coastline.

First time to Portugal

Reviewed By cathprice_1

This was a lovely hotel. We were surprised by how large our self catering apartment was and it was kept very clean daily. Staff were very welcoming and friendly. It was a great base for us to explore Portugal with our hire car - parking no problem. It is in walking distance of the more lively old town and beaches, but we liked the fact it was in a quieter area itself. We didn't really use the pools as we tended to go off to the beaches in the day, but they all looked great.

Fantastic holiday

Reviewed By Sara M

We are a family of 4 just back from a wonderful holiday in the Alfagar village .Would totally recommend it to anyone young or old.The resort is very well maintained and looks fantastic. We had a sea view apartment which was perfect for our needs. A very short stroll to a beautiful beach.The mini market is adequate and there is a Spar just across the road.. The 2 nearest restaurants to the Alfagar are Portobello and Restaurant Martins ,both less than a 5 min walk. Would definitely plan to return next summer Absolutely loved it.

Tropical Sol Apartments

Long awaited holiday

Reviewed By 59stepstoheaven

Hotel clean, we had a 1 bedroom and it was large enough. Cleaners there every day except Sunday not always the same one or at the same time. Area is great close to bars and restaurants. Taxis good value for money. Only real problem we had with this hotel was the people reserving sun beds at 6am and not actually using them until around 3.00pm. Also while we were there a hen party checked in, although website states no stag or hen parties allowed! The rooms are not soundproofed and you can here everything including the next door shower being switched on. We did enjoy our holiday despite the issues raised but would not return to this hotel.

What a beautiful place. Very clean. Very accommodating. Staff were so polite, courteous and helpful. Pool pretty much to ourselves. Close to pubs, restaurants etc. Short walk to the bay and restaurants on the front. One lady complained our music was too loud (?) but the guy on reception was really cool in dealing with it. We will return no doubt.

Reviewed By carol d

The apartment was very spacious and clean. Mattresses were hard but new ones were being delivered as we left! The kitchen is nice. No cleaning products or basics, just cutlery, crockery and cookware. Balcony very spacious with a table and 6 chairs. No loungers though. There is some noise from the bars below. We were on the first floor, and weren’t particularly disturbed. Not high season, mind! Overall, a great holiday and extremely good value.

What a lovely place

Reviewed By Laviniaham

We stayed self catering as don’t like to be tied to a hotel for every meal. The hotel is lovely and clean modern and the staff are amazing. The cost of water and bits from the mini market was reasonable and they have activities which were really good for older children archery and rifle shooting to name a few. Situated just outside Alvor we loved walking into Alvor it takes about 30 min (all roads lead to somewhere) and they provide a bus to the beach and to some other places. We had breakfast there once was ok but to be honest there is better for cheaper if u walk in to Alvor or make ur own as there big supermarket on ur way to Alvor. We will be returning here as it really is a great place

I couldn't have been more pleased with my stay!

Reviewed By atlantamarkbear

I couldn't have been more pleased with my stay! I'm a professional sales person going on 38 years of business travel, and although this was a personal visit, I know what good facilities, service, and quality is in the hospitality industry. The room I had was actually an apartment! It was spacious, well stocked, and above all clean! This is also an 'all inclusive' hotel so my meals and happy hour (beer and wine) were also included. It was EPIC! There's a grocery store within a block so anything you need can be had here. The people were all very friendly, they spoke plenty of English and I never felt bad about not being able to speak their beautify Portuguese language. I can't recommend this hotel high enough. Special 'shout out' to Cassia at the front desk for helping me each day. Oh! and the price is fabulous! The value for your money here is killer! You want to stay here!!!

Placid Village

Top spot

Reviewed By Gnich81

Great holiday at placid village. Spotless apartment, great facilities including a washing machine in the apartment and great shower. Pool area lovely with beds and umbrellas. Quiet and peaceful at night and just a short walk into carveiro. Taxi home very reasonable at under 5 euro. My absolute favourite was the covered area with the comfortable chairs on the tiled patio no such glamourous spot for a 5pm gin and tonic this week! Highly recommend placid village
