Barcelo, Algarve hotels

"Wonderful three night stay at this hotel! Friendly welcome at reception and we were shown around the main areas of the hotel. Breakfast was great, good selection of fresh and cooked food. It was a little walk down the hill to the main part of town where we found lots of nice restaurants & bars. We wouldn’t hesitate to return! "

"Great place for family vacation "

"The guest services gentleman could not have been more helpful. He helped navigate us to wonderful destinations and travel shuttles with ease. Truly an asset to the resort."

"Excellent food and service throughout 7 day stay. Short walk to fabulous beach, great spa and relaxing pool area. "

"This hotel is on the top floor of a shopping g mall. You enter through the mall. When the mall is closed you can walk around the empty mall… it’s kind of cool. "

"Perfect place for family three nights away with teenagers.We spent most of the days at the pool by the Casa Azul, lovely breeze, never busy, and handy snack bar for drinks and food right there. Its a little hilly so prob not the best for anyone with mobility issues. Ate breakfast both mornings at the Alfarroba restaurant. (Tip: ordering off the a la carte menu is better value than the buffet but that nay have been because we got the buffet one day as it seemed to be finishing up). Mini market on the site stocks anything you need. Kids played mini golf one evening. The resort is not really walking distance to anything in the heat…maybe had it been cooler and we were there longer, we would have attempted to walk to old town. Ubers were about 6-8 euro into the old town or the strip and were easy enough to get- no waiting. We booked a three bed apartment that was in great condition but had slight sign of wear and tear, mainly with the light in the bathroom not staying on and one plug socket that had come away from the wall. Apartment had everything you could possibly need (washer, ironing board, good kitchen with dishwasher). Bathrooms seemed pretty new and shower had great water pressure. It was advertised as having one bathroom but when we got there, there were two which was a pleasant surprise with 5 people! Tip 2: We ordered groceries and food via Uber eats since it was late when we got there. Overall I was delighted with our time here and the facilities- perfect for us! "

"Highly recommend this hotel "
