Alfagar Village

Can’t fault this place or jet2 friendly staff and competitive prices no real need to leave complex unless you want explore different places.Whatever you decide you won’t be disappointed.Only problem I have at moment is not being able to book for next year.

The Alfagar Village is half way between two small towns the apartments has everything you need for self catering. its great for families with children under 12yrs also young and older couples. They have air con and heating . A lovely beach at the the bottom of the wooden steps . The small super market on site is limited No fresh meat if you have a car both small towns have a larger super market which is 5 minutes away iif you are walking its 20 minutes the prices are a little lower then the on site shop. Aldi and Lidel are in Albufeira .If you get a taxi it will cost about 9 euros one way. You can book a mini bus at the hotel for 1 euro each way to go into Albufeira once a day or the bus stop is out side which with cost about 2.65 euros each way. If you like fish the Tres Palmeiras restaurante is a nice experience lovely food . If you like Chinese the Royal in is good in Estrada.. THe Alfagar has a couple of bars on site the staff are friendly the food is average..The area has a lot of beaches all different well worth a visit to them all .

Alfagar Village is the original accommodation of the resort (I think) but I like it the best. Querky little apartments which are fully equipped. I had a friend staying in the Alfagar II and hers was more modern but I still preferred the village. The onsite facilities were excellent. Everything was so well maintained and clean. Breakfast excellent.

The resort is excellent we stayed in the village can not fault it in anyway very clean iron microwave cooker kettle everything you would need. good food at restaurant near the pool. Very friendly helpful staff pools ate lovely

Second time here. Accommodation excellent, pools fabulous and shop and bar great. Can walk into.Albuferia or can book taxi at reception for approx 8 euros to Old Town. Beach is down quite a few steps but is lovely.

Excellent place to stay. Lovely atmosphere, the staff are all lovely. Right on the cliff side overlooking the sea. Been coming for years . Excellent service and a really nice place to stay. Its a 15 minute walk into albufeira, so handy, or about 5 euros in a taxi.

Very clean large rooms that are well maintained by very helpful staff,pools are cleaned daily The reception staff were very polite and friendly. Use the shuttle service to and from the hotel and Albufeira only 1 euro each way

We were in the apartments beside the banvilla bar we ate there 5 days out of 7 and went there every night the bar staff were fantastic. The food was great freshly made for you. Breakfast lunch dinner and snacks. The cocktails were great as well. The bar staff remembers the drink orders. There was entertainment every night. There was a games room for adults and kids.

Just spent 8 nights at alfagar 1. Spot on. Loads of pools to choose from. The main pool is really good. The kids loved the slides in the kids pool. Apts were excellent. Spotless. Had everything you needed for a self catering holiday (even a corkscrew for the wife's bottle of wine). Will definitely be booking again.

Immaculate apartments everything you need on site and friendly staff . Can book any trip or activity on site . Choice of pools . Can eat on site or go out with places nearby ideal for families or couples

Our 2nd stay at the Alfagar, won't be our last! We visited before and always said we would return and it was nicer than we remembered. Very friendly staff at reception when we checked in, our room was ready so no waiting around, 20 (10 of which is refundable) Euros for the safe key, golf trolley took us and our baggage to our room. Our room was in block 2 (304) and before we entered our apartment we noticed the size of balcony, which was HUGE! We has a large table with 4 chairs' and our own sun loungers and umbrella - marvelous! Our 1 bedroom apartment was also very big and well equipped, iron, ironing board, hair dryer, toaster, coffee machine, microwave, kettle and a 'real' oven! The utensils were more than adequate as well. The bathroom was more than adequate, living room furniture was comfortable as was the enormous bed and we both slept very well. We also had a flat screen TV with a couple of English channels. The views were excellent and worth paying extra for, the 2 French windows in the dining area overlooked the sea and gardens as did the view from the terrace/balcony which also overlooked the top pool. The complex is one of the prettiest we have stayed in, the gardens are very well kept and a joy to walk around and both pools were clean and well maintained. The mini-marked it surprisingly well stocked for it's size with just about everything you could need but a little pricey.There is a cheaper one on the strip. The pool bar is very good, drinks are a little expensive but contain large amounts of alcohol so who cares? The bar staff are very friendly also. The very clean Santa Eulalia beach is accessible via quite steep steps at the top of the complex, it can get busy, 2 loungers and umbrella is 15 Euros per day. The complex is around a 15 minute walk to 'the strip' which we didn't like much but we did eat out there almost every night. There is a large Chinese restaurant call The Royale, which is great and we ate there twice, great food and very cheap. We also ate at Martins restaurant 3 time which I would also recommend! Holiday highlight was the 3 hour dolphin spotting excursion on a catamaran (book the orange one - 'Dolphins and Coastline' by 'Dolphins Driven') which we purchased from a little shop on the strip, it cost us 82 Euros (for 2 of us) which included pick up and drop off from our hotel but the driving kindly dropped us of in the old town so we could have lunch and do souvenir shopping. Jet2 - very efficient, booked again!
