The kitchen was pretty well equipped although it would have been nice to have a coffee maker. The rooms were kept very clean by the chambermaids and we have nothing but great things to say about the wonderful fellows that manned the front desk. The area of Olhos de Aqua is a very quaint part of Albufeira which we absolutely loved. We felt very safe here and loved all the little restaurants in the area. We would definitely stay here again. Our thanks to all the staff!

Have been to this village many times but this was a first for this property . Would not go back unles we could specifically choose an upstairs apartment. Very dissapointed with the size of the balcony. Bath very unsafe as no shower mat or grab rail and base of bath very slippy when standing in shower.

Wonderful stay at the aqua mar. Apartment had all the amenities needed. All the staff were so friendly and went out their way to help. The hotel and rooms were spotlessly clean and the apartment was always cleaned daily. We would often be in the room around the maid service times for our child's nap but the maids always accommodated and came around later which we really appreciated. In future I would book a superior room as our balcony was a bit small but we had a lovely view of the pool otherwise. Plenty of bars and restaurants around the hotel, although it is a bit hilly and some of the beaches aren't accessible if you have a buggy/wheelchair. Would definitely stay again.

Was pleasantly surprised with this place. The staff were very kind and helpful. Was like a little apartment, without a washer though. 1 min walk to the beach and plenty of restaurants in very short distances. Lots of kids/families by the pool. A little wading pool for the little ones too. The bar by the pool is nice and has plenty of options for food and beverages.

Traveling through Portugal as a solo motorcyclist, I found this to be a great hotel. Safe parking off street for the bike, away from prying eyes behind a barrier. Facilities are awesome - more space than I knew what to do with. Great place to spend a few days or a few weeks.
