What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Fantastic Culinary Experience

We had a splendid culinary experience during our stay! The food was a great delicacy, and every meal was well-priced for its astounding taste. It was evident that the flavors have even improved since our last visit, which is a wonderful sign. Breakfast was particularly enjoyable, with a wonderful variety that set the tone for each day.

Kids Club Delight

My daughter absolutely loved the kids club! Although it was small, they always had activities planned. It was great knowing she was entertained and making friends while we relaxed, making it a perfect family getaway.

The resort is beautifully situated with stunning views and direct access to a lovely beach. The spacious apartments are great for families, but the dining experience really lacks variety and quality, especially at breakfast. While the amenities overall are decent, the hidden costs for basic items can add up quickly, detracting from the overall value for money.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Suites Alba in the Algarve. The hotel is tucked away in a beautiful, secluded area right on the cliffs with stunning beach access, making it perfect for those looking to escape the typical tourist spots. The facilities, especially the pools, were excellent for our family, but the dining experience had a few hiccups. Overall, it was a great place for us, though some aspects could be improved.
