The Patio Suite Hotel

We really liked the hotel. Clean, spacious family room. We were self catering and ate in local restaurants within walking distance. Amazing golf resort opposite the hotel. Cheap Uber ride away from Albufeira and Vilamoura. In our last couple of days some groups of young lads were there and disrupting the peace of the swimming pool, which shouldn’t happen at a family hotel.

Located in Albufeira but away from the noisy downtown area. Close to beaches and one of them is a beauty and the hotel has a shuttle bus to go there. The staff is so friendly and ready to help you. The breakfast is to dye for with so much choice. We were accompanied with our 2 grandchildren and they had so much fun at the kid 's pool.Near local restaurants and grocery store walking distance. The hotel is spotless and the rooms are very big with kitchen. Definitely a hotel for families with children. Will be back soon. Jose E.

We’ve just returned from a lovely week at The Patio. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment which was massive, a great place to chill. We were all inclusive and the food was good although the desserts were very samey and bland. We walked to the beach each day- around 20 mins at Childs pace as we preferred the exercise to taking the shuttle. We spent afternoons by the pool which was great but we never managed to get a lounger, they started being reserved, but not sat on, before breakfast. Our daughter loved the mini disco each evening but we didn’t try any other activities. Overall a great stay and we would recommend it!

Everything about this hotel was amazing. Staff, rooms, location, amenities and food did not disappoint. 15 minute walk to probably one of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve and far enough from the crowds in Albufeira. Their pools were lovely when we wanted a break from the beach. 2 bedroom suites were very roomy and perfect for my family of 4. All that you need are just steps away including many restaurants that feel like you are eating with the locals. It won’t disappoint. Will be back 100%

Staff are pleasant and helpful. But if I were to compare this to similar 4 star all inclusive hotels I have stayed at, it falls short. Food is ok, not an awful lot of choice, pizzas are lovely, and vegetarian section was nice. Breakfast, the highlight was the freshly made omelette. Cocktails are just sugary syrup, so I would stay away from them. Beer /spirits and mixers we good. No complaints. We were surprised that bottles of water aren’t included on all inclusive. Never experienced that before and it was actually rather annoying, as I consider that a basic need. Sunbed situation is dire. In our 50s having to lay on a towel on the grass really isn’t ideal. In fact something I have never had to do anywhere else and we aren’t fussy, any sunbed would do, sun or shade. Rooms are a good size, perfect for a young family. Hotel is quite out the way. You can walk to the beach, but it’s a good 20 mins. Hotel does provide a shuttle. We took an Uber to Vilamoura which was lovely. I will consider staying in that area next time, as there is more to do. In summary if you have young children and are looking for a quiet holiday. This might suit you. Unfortunately I wouldn’t return.
