We had a fantastic stay here in this beautiful hotel. The staff were extremely kind and helpful, without exception, going above and beyond to make our stay special. Breakfasts were delicious with many pastries, fruits, eggs etc (although perhaps some vegetarian meats would be a nice addition). We also both had amazing massages at the spa. The area is nice with a lovely beach in walking distance and some nice restaurants and bars. It is only around a 10 minute taxi journey from Albufeira old town...

Wonderful hotel, would definitely recommend and stay again! I got a tour of the facilities as soon as I arrived which I loved as it meant I didn’t have to discover things independently and wonder how things worked. The room was gorgeous, just bear in mind the toilet and shower share the same door, I didn’t mind as I was travelling solo. The food was delicious!

I would recommend this hotel for couples and small families who enjoy a holiday in a quieter location slightly away from the busy centre of Albufeira. Sao Rafael has 2 small but very good beaches which are about 10 mins walk away and there are pleasant cliff top walks, with colourful flowers and strange rock formations. Town centre a little further to walk, or take the bus. Facilities very good and all the staff very friendly and helpful. Food excellent. Everything very clean and well...

After much searching for a hotel that fit the bill along the coastline and around Albufeira, we settled on the Baia Grande. I must say for the week we wanted, it was also the cheapest !
Having looked around the town after we had I checked in, all I can say is that I am glad we stayed here rather than noisy crowded rooms or apartments in close vicinity to pub after pub and the crowds. I can't understand the people who marked the place down because the entertainment was more suited to older...

Great hotel about 2 or 3 minutes from the beach. The room and pool were great, didn't have the breakfast so can't comment. We had a late evening flight home but they allowed us to use a room for a shower before heading to the airport which was very helpful. It didn't affect us, but the hotel is located on a very steep hill for anyone who is less mobile.

Superb location, near the beach and short walk to square. Recommend paying the extra for a room with a sea view and being on the second floor. Breakfast was fine. Staff helpful. Not many sun beds but this is a small hotel, having said that the beach is only minutes away. Would definitely stay here again if i came back to albufeira.

The check-in was effortless and quick, and the email communication before arrival was helpful. The room was good in size with two single beds put together, a sofa (which could be changed to a sofa bed), a dining table with chairs, a separate well-equipped kitchen and bathroom.

Very high standard of service. Simple but high quality rooms with extremely comfortable 5 star standard beds, pillows and sheets. The restaurant is surprisingly good and they cater for gluten intolerances. You can use the beach shuttle from the Hilton across the road to the gorgeous Falesia beach with beach club. As a single traveller I felt very welcome here and liked the quiet pool area. Reception staff are charming and helpful. Very good value and well located hotel.
