Top Arrifes Beach Hotel Reviews

Hotel Maritur - Adults Only by Pierre & Vacances

São Rafael Holidays

10/10 Excellent

"We loved everything about this hotel ! So much we booked an additional night. Very high end area with beautiful walkable restaurants and private beaches. The views are gorgeous. The breakfast and the staff are lovely. Of the five hotels we visited so far on our trip - this one was our favorite!"

Elegant Villa with Heatable Pool and BBQ

Stunning Farmhouse With Private Gated Pool & Outstanding Sea and Beach Views

10/10 Excellent

"Just got back from a lovely 10day vacation at Freya’s Casa do Grego villa . We were a party of two families (adults and teens) travelling in from Canada and the UK and this property gave us all the space we needed ( loved the multiple bathroom options!) is in a beautiful quiet spot with expansive ocean views yet still walkable to a local beach and plenty of restaurant options! We loved having our own space and pool (we opted to have it heated which was a vacation bonus!) The photos truly don’t do this property justice as this home brought Portugal charm but with mordern day needs .Both the host and the property manager were lovely - very responsive!Thank you for a lovely stay!"

Villa Algarve-Seafront Albufeira-5mn walk from beach tennis -heated pool - À/C

"Prachtige setting. We hebben heerlijk kunnen zwemmen en tennissen. Golfbaan op 15 min rijdenWeggetje rechtstreeks naar het strand en kliffenEen echte aanrader"

Villa sea view 7 minutes walk from the beaches with heated pool rooftop

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely villa, which is beautifully furnished and equipped. A very nice large heated pool in the large garden and several areas where one can sit and enjoy the space.Helena, the owner, gives excellent information about the property and is very available if there are any problems, which she then takes swift action to remedy."

Hotel Baia Grande

8/10 Good

"Hotels not that big. Perfect really. Had a great time with the family, made it feel relaxed and peaceful. Theres just a few things that need improving, we found spiders and ants in my room. We could never quite figure out the lights. The Pool closed 7pm which I felt was a bit early, especially being in the Summer. They also do BBQ nights on Thursday… when we called it was fully booked. We would have loved to have experienced it, so perhaps encouraging guests to reserve in advance would help or cater for more. Towels for some reason are changed up at reception instead of the pool area which I found inconvenient. Overall, these were only minor issues and didn’t take away from what was a lovely family holiday. We’d happily return."
