We stayed at the Suites Alba for three nights from 5th to the 8th of May, having got a great price on a Flash Deal on Bookings.com. Loved our time there and am looking at going back for a five night stay in September. Yes a car is essential it is far away from everything but very self contained. We... More

Its got to be the best kept secret in Portugal. From the moment you arrive to the very time you leave the place is so perfect, the staff are so lovely and very professional. Its a beautiful place, the villas, gardens, pool and even the beach is like a postcard. But don't tell anyone. More

Alba suites is nicely located near the beach in a quiet area. Beautiful view from the outdoor pool and terrace. The suites are ok. The living room was quit dark (limited natural light) and the kitchen didnt have any kitchenware. We asked the reception, but what they provided was still limited. Internet is very very slow. The indoor pool is... More

i almost don't want to write this because I don't want word to get out about this place. It is really so awesome. Rooms are big, bathroom floors are heated, furniture and all decor is pretty, tasteful and upscale. We had a sunny suite, moved our little table and chairs from the back to the front and spent our days... More

We wanted a short break to destress and get some autumn sun on our backs. We couldn't have picked a better place. It's a small resort in a remote idylic location so don't book if you want to be "in amongst it". It was so peaceful. The food was good. There was a play ground and indoor, outdoor pools to... More

Thank you for your kind words about Alba Villas. Whilst effectively the small kitchenettes are not equiped with utensils, they are readily available on request for the people who prefer cooking for themself. We will make a note in your profile to ensure that on your next visit, the kitchen is set up. We hope to welcome you back again!... More

Overall Comments: In the middle of nowhere, but nice rooms with great beach. More like an apartment complex with some management. Room: Excellent, apartment style, without any kitchen utensils, but well furnished and modern. Great bathroom with huge spa bath. Location: Very secluded and quiet. 15 minute taxi ride to nearest town. Facilities: Limited…one restaurant (good food though). Poor gym... More

Thank you for taking the time to write about our property, and I am glad to hear you have had a pleasant stay with us. I think our remoteness is definitely an asset as we are surrounded by beautiful mediterranean lanscape and right (almost) on top of the ragged coastline of the Algarve. I do agree with you that the... More

Spacious luxury houses, nice pool area; located in the albandeira beach, 8 km from carvoeiro town. A bit isolated, 5 km or so through a woods' path. Overall, recommended. More

We were here during the end-of-year holiday. The place was for sure not fully occupied. The appartments were the best value we ever had. Each appartment had a large living room with seats, a television, a dvd player (!), next to that a smaller kitchen with a large table, two bedrooms each with a televeision and a large bathroom.

A perfect location for relaxing and escaping the stress of modern day life. Away from the hustle and bustle of the commercial world, this was honey to the bee!! Surrounded by extremely thoughtful and polite staff, nothing was too much trouble. From the spa to the restaurant, every request was efficiently executed. We visited a local restaurant which served typical... More
