We have just returned from a 10 night stay April '09. We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment on the 3rd floor. Good distance from the strip, about 10 min walk. This is far enough away to be quiet at night. Having said that the hotel elevators are very noisy and you seem to be able to hear them wherever... more

hotel was central for both the strip and old town but was not impressed with this hotel there was a terrible smell coming from the drains and around the pool more

Myself and two friends stayed in the ondamar for a week in august. The hotel is in good walking distance to aluferia's old town and the strip plus there is a huge supermarket just 5 mins walk up the road.

Booked an 8 night stay in Albufeira at the Ondamar at the start of October and had a great time. The hotel was very quiet and other than us there were very few English speaking guests, but we were well looked after by the friendly staff there and had no major complaints about the hotel at all. A few minor... more

The room was large with a well equipped kitchen.However on the second night a large a 8ft... more
