Fantastic hotel, amazing pools… sauna/ steam room. Gym closed but due to be reopened this week. Spotless throughout, and just a fantastic break. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful, something for everyone. Sangria at the bar hit the spot ;) Downloaded Bolt to get to and from the old and new town.

We had an excellent stay. The only problem we had during our stay was with an ant infestation in our room. We were moved to another room efficiently by the staff and then enjoyed the rest of our stay. Thank you for an excellent stay at the Holiday Inn, Albufeira
