Just back from a wonderful 8 night stay at this superbly located hotel. The reception staff especially Joao were excellent. Our room (Number 9) was quaint and spacious located at the back of the hotel but with a sea view. We had absolutely no problems with street noise. Indeed for 2 of the nights concerts took place at the front... More

I really booked this villa because i liked the pics i saw on their website. I cannot say good enough things about the reception staff of this hotel. Simply put they are fantastic; helpful, friendly, full of useful information and tips, go out of their way to help you to make your experience a great and fun time. There was... More

Stayed overnight Aug 28, 2011 at one of the "sea-view" rooms, that looks over the "bad beach" and the harbour. Villa Albatroz is linked to the Albatroz hotel, a 10-minute walk away, that is by the "good" beach and has the (very small) swimming pool. Villa Albatroz is run more like an upscale "pension" and is not really a 4-star... More

Two years a go whe had a wonderfull at the Albatroz Hotel. This summer we had a (indeed) very late booking at the same hotel, ie we booked a night before our stay for a couple af days. By arrival, it turned out that they had reserved a chambre at their sister hotel, the Villa Albatroz. Don't ever make this... More

Villa Albatroz is a typical Portugese house. Only 11 bedrooms, each individually designed. Our room overlooked the sea/beach. A small bottle of port was left in the room each day, a lovey touch. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfasts were beautiful. The restaurant was of excellent standard. We will definitely be back. Such a lovely relaxing experience. Very... More

I have to say that some of the bad reviews here make me think I was staying in the wrong hotel. I was there for five days in May and would stay there again with no worries. It's not a 5 star hotel, more like three and a half. But the breakfast was huge and delicious, the staff courteous and... More

The pictures and five stars in the brochure for this guest house are 10 years old! They do not represent the place as it is now, which can only be called a dump. They make it look elegant. The nice looking terrace featured in the photo is an awful shabby slab with old chairs that need new paint and peeling... More

This stay was just not meant to be. When we arrived to our room we were overwhelmed with the lingering cigarette smoke, construction noise, dredging of the Marina, plumbing noise, motorcyclists doing wheelies out front and a large tent being erected just outside our room. We would not be able to stay at the hotel without having the windows open... More

we have spent 1 night in room n°6 . V.A. is a very relaxing and romantic place. the service is first class and you can either go to the swimming pool in hotel albatroz or to the beaches nearby or to guincho. I am travelling quite a lot and have seen quite a lot of hotels and I know quite... More
