Clube Praia da Oura

I was very surprised with the quality of the hotel with what i paid for it , The room was nice clean and good view overlooking the sea . The food was good standard and plenty choice for breakfast lunch and dinner . The out door BBQ was good . The only problem was the Boat bar they lacked staff always long ques to get beer . You must take in account that you are close to the STRIP bars music noise till 3am . Over all the staff all helpful and would stay again

We enjoyed our stay and will certainly return. Ruiz, Maria Santos, Olga and Bruno were very attentive. Great dining recommendation from Ruiz We did have to change rooms but as soon as we had move the stay was just perfect!!

Hotel looked great but to many stag parties for us pool was not relaxing ar all Fights chairs been chucked For older people with mobility issues do not choose this place to many steps Only good point lovely food on the beach Maids did an excellent job cleaning nothing was to much trouble

No net curtains in the room leading to lack of privacy as the full wall was glass and being on the ground floor my room was in the passageway for any residents who ventured into my area. Had to request these. The main curtains were filthy. They were both covered in mould and smelt appalling. Shower curtain filthy, to the point I moved it away from me when showering as I was not prepared to have the mould spores on me. Hairdryer broken. Cockroaches in the apartment. I walked in one evening, switched on the light and saw all of them scurrying back under the fridge. All in all a terrible experience.

Been many times over the last 16 years to this resort but will not be back, It is not the family resort we loved anymore. It now accommodates large groups of Stags, hens and pub trips. Alcohol induced swearing and stripping around the pool. The all in inclusive bar next to the children's play area has also not been well thought out either. The noise and complete disregard for the youngsters was just awful. Pools dirty with dead flys and insects floating around. tiles cracked and sharp glass tiles from the pool floating around. Sun beds filthy, Management do no want to know. charged ridicules amount for travel cot Not informed before hand. Rep on site not interested. Shrugging his shoulders when complained. I love Portugal and the surrounding restaurants but not this complex any more and it really saddens me to say that. Staff work hard but not enough of them. Paid for a deluxe 1 Bed apart it was very old and and needs complete revamp. 1 Stars worth at best. Daughter and family paid for same type of room and it was equally disgusting standard. Will not be back.

Was a bit apprehensive after reading so many negative reviews , but pleasantly surprised that most of them were way off the mark , ok the room was small and a bit difficult to find , but as we booked a studio we weren’t expecting anything huge . It was adequate for our needs as we only used for sleeping in , went b & b this trip and found the breakfasts adequate with the typical menu on offer . Would say 3 star based on previous experiences, but you get what you pay for at the end of the day . Never heard any noise from stags or hens at all

After having read a number of reviews that weren’t very complimentary about the hotel, it was with some trepidation that we entered the “lions den” on our arrival. All I can say is some people must be very hard to please. Reception couldn’t have been more helpful, porterage was provided taking our luggage and belongings direct to our apartment. Very good service. The only fault and really we shouldn’t complain, was the room was on the small side. The room had everything you needed, was cleaned every day, beds changed every day and towels changed regularly. We have no complaints, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Stayed on a weeks holiday feb 2019. Awful! My parents bought a time share 31 years ago when Jack Petchey of Petchey leisure owned it. Amazing! out of this world. It was the place to be, Everybody wanted to be apart of it. So 20years ago I introduced my family to it. We all used to go when it was my parents time share week even again later on in the year. We loved it. Then my parents gave up the time share after many years but we all still went on package holidays over the years. We last saw I big difference when we went 4 years ago how standards had dropped and how different the accommodation had started to look. Not in a good way may I add. So when we stayed this time what a shock. On arrival Skelton staff at reception and nobody I recognised. Piano bar in reception closed, swimming pool closed.It looked dead everywhere. Got to our apartment given the wrong key then with no help as there is no porters anymore. Opening the door it had a very funny, damp and unpleasant smell so tried to open patio door to let in air but couldn't so gave that up.Floor looked like it hadn't been cleaned so after unpacking we gave it a brush and there was rather a lot of muck. Then we mopped it with no bucket so wiped it dry with a towel and well it was disgusting. So only realising late on at night the pull out sofa bed mattress had rather a lot of stains on it. Not very nice for my daughter to sleep on. So in the morning I complained at reception and all I got back from an Asian manager was I will get the made to clean the floor but I tried to explain we had already cleaned it. I explained about the cleanliness and the bed which she looked blank at me and said I don't understand this word cleanliness. I then asked to speak to someone else who could help, I spoke to a lady called Maria and she another manager who was very nice and helpfull. We moved apartments which was a bit better but not much and we had to unpack again. No tea towel so went to reception for one and again asian manager said well soon it will be turned into a hotel so you won't need a towel, which was no use to me there and then. When we got a towel in the apartment late it was stained and dirty. Terrible! We were given free breakfast for the rest of the week but we went once and all I can say is its cheap slop. Like everything now at clube praia da oura everything is done on the cheap. Even speaking to the locals who I've known over the years said its bad. Wont stay there ever again. Its had its day RIP CPO

Nice location, could get round pool so spent day at beach or on balcony. Massive balcony great view.Restaurants by beach pleasant strip not so nice but although near to the strip quiet location.strange shape hotel we were in part near beach other parts I imagine not so nice.

This hotel is massive the staff on reception are very ignorant.Hotel is far too big no signs nowhere your just given quick poor directions by the reception staff on arrrival.no shop or supermarket in hotel so have to go out.Hotel room said it was for a family but is was not big enough very small.

We did 10 nights self catering in a standard studio apartment. The studio we were allocated was tiny. We asked to be moved and was given a bigger, nicer room. Air conditioning would have been nice as it was averaging 30° daily. The housekeeping was hit and miss and we had to phone reception to ask for clean towels. The resort is popular with Hen and Stag parties and the hotel was noisy in the early hours! The New Town /Strip was not for us. It was very noisy,dirty and there was lots of broken glass on the paths. Albufeira Old Town is nice but can also be noisy at night. The beach is lovely and very quiet until 3pm ...when all the party goers surface. We didn't use the pool as there wasn't enough parasols and it was so hot! We preferred to pay for 2 sunbeds and a parasol on the beach for €15 a day . The hotel has lots of steps and the resort is fairly hilly.... could be an issue for people with mobility issues or families with young children and buggies.

Basic cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired Room service practically non existent - beds never made Floors never washed But they did change the towels daily !! It could be a fabulous holiday resort but at the moment it is lacking in basic standards

Booked a Superior Terrace Self Catering Apartment, very disappointing so small, had to upgrade at extra cost, when booking make sure you know that the room is what you want . Upgraded room also disappointing because of repungent smell from fridge.

Do not book all inclusive at this hotel. You can only get 1 drink at a time, it's advertised as drinks 10 am - 11 pm, but it doesn't start til 12.00 and that's only if you are at the beach bar, there's no drinks round the pool til 2 pm, not even water or soft drinks, this hotel is obviously not concerned. About the health and safety of their guests as pool opens at 9 and you can't get a drink whilst 2 unless you trail down to the beach bar, but don't forget you can only get drink at a time and hotel rules say you can't take drinks out of the beach bar area, but if you leave you're subbed unattended they remove the towel, you can't w!. At most all inclusives you can get a snack or ice cream during the day, but not at this one, it's only 5- 6pm you have to go to restaurant for it and coincidentally it's at the same time as the pool entertainment so kids are busy playing water polo/water dancing whilst it's snack hour, well done this hotel more money you have saved! The location of the hotel is good for the strip but it's about all it's got going for it, room was shabby and again falsely advertised as having air con when it didn't (though think this was jet2 error) This is the must money we have ever spent on a all inclusive holiday then to top it off had to spend another £20000 extra in drinking/eating out, oh and the entertainment was awful, thought the cats were screechin when the 4 divas lady sung absolutely awful.

Stayed her with my husband and grown up daughter in a one bed apartment, my other daughter and her 6 year old daughter stayed just below us in a studio. Both accommodations were great! Clean and well furnished. Our accommodation was beside the children's pool, which suited us well, and just a stone throw away from the beach. There was plenty of choice at breakfast buffet, and dinner, with free drink, wine or beer at evening meal! The staff were very pleasant, and so helpful, especially on check in as we were early, and the girl managed to give us rooms beside each other. The entertainment staff were superb!! We thoroughly enjoyed evening entertainment, something for all ages, catered so well for the kids, with bouncy castles each evening too. Kids club was good for our 6 year old, she made friends and the staff again friendly and helpful, we were confident to leave her with them. Would certainly return here in the future.
