FamiliÀres Hotel in der wunderschönen Algarve

Das Hotel ist durch seine Grösse und die sehr freundlichen Betreiber sehr familiĂ€r. Man fĂŒhlt sich sofort wohl und bei Fragen oder Problemen wird einem jederzeit weitergeholfen. Das Hotel ist 15 Gehminuten vom wunderschönen Sao Rafael Strand entfernt. Mit dem Auto ist das StĂ€dtchen Albufeira in wenigen Minuten erreichbar. Allgemein ist es empfehlenswert ein Auto zu haben, damit man auch die anderen wunderschönen StrĂ€nde der Algarve besuchen kann. Restaurants sind auch zu Fuss erreichbar.

Charming Vila Channa

Small adult only hotel, big on customer service. We were given a very warm welcome by Omar who explained everything we needed to know and then showed us to our room which was well presented and very clean. The buffet breakfast was fantastic with so much choice including cereal, fresh fruit, cold meats, cheese, eggs and lots more.The staff were always smiling and ready to help, nothing was too much to ask at any time. We will certainly go to Vila Channa again for a relaxing, stress free break.

Supernöjd gÀst som gÀrna ÄtervÀnder

Vi blev oerhört bra bemötta direkt nÀr vi anlÀnde till hotellet. Fick information om hotellet, bra matstÀllen i nÀrheten, vilka badplatser som fanns omkring och allt nödvÀndig information om det och allt annat man kan önska. Vi kÀnde oss vÀldigt vÀl omhÀndertagna och jag Àr övertygad om att vi kommer ÄtervÀnda. OmrÄdet kring hotellet Àr kanske inte det flashigaste, men avkopplande, nÀra till bad och fantastisk service.

trĂšs bon hĂŽtel

Etablissement propre, personnel accueillant, sympathique et parlant français. Petit déjeuner copieux. Cependant il est nécessaire d'avoir une voiture car un peu éloigné du centre ville. Nous nous y sommes tellement plu que nous n'avons pas voulu changer pour nous rapprocher des centres villes, préférant revenir dans cet hÎtel pour y dormir.La chambre est confortable et silencieuse. Je la recommande et j'y reviendrai volontiers. TrÚs bon rapport qualité/prix

Everything you read is true.

Vila Channa Everything you've read is true (apart from the review where the person seemed to complain about everything, but there's always one isn't there) my wife and I loved this place and the yummy breakfast was a great way to start the day. Omar is such a nice chap and does go out of his way to make sure you're having an enjoy able stay, we would not hesitate to go back and hope to next year. It really is just about the perfect place to stay if you want to relax and of course the Algarve is gorgeous!

Cadre calme, hotel typique de l'Algarve

Nous avons passĂ©s 5 nuits dans cet hotel, nous ne voulions pas ĂȘtre au centre d'Albufeira mais pas trop Ă©loignĂ©s non plus.15 mn Ă  pied de la plage, 10 mn en voiture du centre. Bus Ă  proximitĂ©. Le personnel est sympatique, peu de chambre donc trĂšs calme. Piscine agrĂ©able et trĂšs bon petit dĂ©jeunĂ© buffet Ă  volontĂ© (aussi bien salĂ© que sucrĂ©). Parking Ă  proximitĂ© gratuit. Le prix est tout Ă  fait correct. Les chambres sont suffisament grandes et bien Ă©quipĂ©es (TV, Wifi). Nous avons eu droit Ă  la terrasse vue sur la piscine avec deux transats.

Hyggelig hotell med flott personale

Vi hadde nylig et veldig hyggelig opphold pÄ Vila Channa. Hotellet er relativt lite og ligger noen kilometer utenfor sentrum, som kan vÊre en god ting siden sentrum til tider kan vÊre veldig fullt av turister. Vi ble tatt godt vare pÄ av hotellets sjef, som alltid tok seg tid til en samtale eller til Ä hjelpe oss hvis vi hadde spÞrsmÄl. Vi vil absolutt anbefale dette hotellet for en rolig og hyggelig ferie med kort gange til flere flotte strender!

Lovely Hotel

We had a great stay at Vila Channa, Omar and Channa and the staff make you very welcome. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone. For transfer from and to the airport we booked Yellowfish and they were really great ,arrived on time both ways and the drivers were really good , we also got as a bottle of wine from them.

low key and relaxing

Our stay at the Hotel Channa was very enjoyable. The villa is beautiful and the couple that run it are really nice and very helpful. The room we had however was very small and the bathroom even smaller. It is also out of town and although there is a nice family style restaurant next door there isn't much else in the immediate vacinity - Albufeira old town is a 10min cab drive away. Overall a nice stay but a bit over priced.

Great for couples

The hotel was small and very friendly, with a relaxed atmosphere. Nicely decorated and very clean. The room would have benefited from a small fridge, and a less lumpy pillow! Otherwise great!

Dejligt med fred og ro

Dette er et rigtig dejligt hotel, vi kunne parkere ved siden af hotellet gratis, selvom der stÄr de ikke har parkeringsfaciliteter. God morgenmad, meget behagelig betjening i fine omgivelser. Vi spiste pÄ en fantastisk restaurant O marinheiro der lÄ ti min. vÊk. Dette hotel er sÊrdeles anbefalelsesvÊrdigt og til en rimelig pris.

Roligt og fantastisk til prisen

Rigtig fint og hyggeligt hotel i rolige omgivelser. BehÞrig afstand til Albufeiras larmende barer og omgivelser, ca 3 km til bymidten men taxa fÄs til 6-7 euro pr vej, og der er kun en km til fin strand. Meget flinkt og hjÊlpsomt personale med fortrinlige engelsk-kundskaber. Eneste minus er nogle meget hÄrde madrasser
