3HB Guarana

Where to start. Okay firstly it's the flies they are everywhere outside around the enclosed hotel pool areas, making it impossible to relax poolside! Next this is advertised as a family friendly hotel, well in all honesty that's all it is, if you smoke or don't like smoking and prefer to vape then there is one place you can do either crammed into one with 6 tables with chairs, that's it and nowhere else!. Next the buffet is mediocre at best and you have to queue to get in before giving your room number to one of the staff who step into your way demanding you answer before entering! There is a poolside buffet that offers burgers and chips ect but you will be told to leave if not wearing a t-shirt. Next there are plenty of sunbeds but just make sure you don't get a broken one as there are also plenty of these. Final thoughts as I sit here being pestered by flies, this is absolutely not a four star hotel it's a three! Hope I've covered most of the negatives but feel they are what can spoil a hard earned holiday!!

Lovely hotel. Clean and good food. Only thing I am disappointed with is that the entertainment is repeated exactly after one week. It seems they only expect people to be here 7 days. Other than that it is a lovely hotel. Friendly helpful staff.

Nice location, not too far from the airport and really close to the beach. Very relaxed environment, and there's no rush for sun loungers, which is great. The room is pretty standard. No complaints about cleanliness either. The entertainment team during the day are great, but the evening entertainment is disappointing. The food is nice too, but be aware that you can't take food by the pool. And inflatables aren't allowed, except for kids ones I believe.

Wow, what a hotel. We had a great holiday! The hotel, inside and out is absolutely spotless. I've never been to such a clean hotel. The food (and drinks!) were great. The choice of restaurants/snack bars were fab. Transfer to and from the airport were good, roughly half hour. We went in to Old Town Albufeira which was lovely and only $8 in an uber, each way. The entertainment team were amazing with my 3 year old daughter, getting her involved in pool games, the magic carpet being her favourite! We don't like to re-visit places on holiday as we want to explore different locations however I think we will break the rule on this and return as it was our favourite holiday yet. If you are wondering whether to book this hotel- you won't regret it :-) serious holiday blues being home today!

What a wonderful hotel. We travelled with our young son and it was perfect. The hotel is very clean and well maintained with staff constantly cleaning and doing jobs. The food is great, for a buffet there was always lots of choice and the 2 restaurants you can book into are well worth the visit, especially the oriental restaurant with fresh sushi. Entertainment was good, there is a kids mini disco every night which our son loved, and the evening entertainment was good with singers/ performers. I can’t really fault this hotel and will be looking to return next year
