We stayed in this hotel fom the 1 - 8 May 2008 ( 4 adults and 2 children aged 3 & 5). I would definetly not recommend this hotel - specifically if you have childern with you. First of all, entertainment was virtullay non - existent - except for some music on the first two nights. After that there was... more

We booked this hotel through hotel.com and got an excellent half board deal for my family. Living in Portugal we drove 3 hours from Lisbon. The hotel is a little out of the way and in the twilight it was difficult to read the road signsand consequently took a while to find. Check in was quick and easy. The hotel... more

Our tenth year and second review, The Hotel has changed ownership and apart from a few minor alterations the hotel still maintains its excellence. As always the food (self serv) was in abundance and a very good varied menu daily. The staff were always very attentive and polite. As mentioned this is our 10th year at the Alfamar, to my... more

We enjoyed a week long stay at the hotel booked at the last minute with Travel Republic. The reviews on this site were reasonable and price was attractive too. Overall, we found the hotel pleasant and acceptable for the money. There was good choice of food for both breakfast and dinner. A selection from a fish meal and another (eg.... more

Stayed at the Alfamar from the 3/9/07 till the 13/9/07. Have to say we really enjoyed the hotel on the whole. There are a few minor gripes but not to much of a problem. First of all, you will need a car if you stay at this hotel as it is a little bit out of the way situated between... more

The Algarve Garden Apartments are part of the Alfamar Hotel Property. As such it was hard to find previous reviews of the place. The taxi driver had no grasp of English which made it slightly terrifying for us as had I not found out through a very vague review that it was located in the grounds of the Alfamar we... more

We stopped at the self-catering apartments which are owned by, and within the grounds of, the 'LTI Alfamar Beach and Sports Resort' hotel. They are however independently known as the 'Algarve Garden' apartments. A bit confusing and you may find it easier to advise taxi drivers that you are stopping at the Alfamar as this is where you need to... more

We stayed for a week from 9th July until 16th July and, apart from the fact that we were never up early enough to reserve the sunbeds, we had an excellent stay. The staff were very helpful and we were never kept waiting. We found the food was good and plentiful but we didn't feel that it was upto 4*... more

Hotel was very beautiful, especially for the price. Lots to do at the hotel, beach and food was fantastic. However we found the staff here to be very rude to us during our stay and unwilling to help. Very nice rooms liked the location of the hotel, as it was not in the centre. Food at the hotel although nice... more
