Vila Alba Resort

The property was really beautiful and very luxurious. Staff and facilities were above expectation. The beach access and hiking trail is right from the resort. As the hotel is right at the coastline, road leading to hotel is a bit narrow but everyone there drives responsibly. Highly recommend

Grounds, location, view, pools and spa are fantastic. Suites have dated decor but are ample and comfortable with couches, fridge, stove, dishes, tvs, etc. and green garden view. Spa has steam room, dry sauna, water beds, indoor pool, jacuzzi all included plus services available for booking. Outdoor infinity pool and kids pool. Easy pretty walk to beach. Ample towels. Dining room for dinner was disappointing and expensive. (€19 for delicious bacon Mac and cheese is too much. No blender for daiquiris. Had to hunt for servers. Failed to bring some of our order.) breakfast was ample and had hearty options and fresh juice. Mattress, as typical in Portugal was hard and in need of replacing AND a topper. (But I’ve experienced worse at Portuguese BnBs and hotels) Would definitely go again! (And eat at an excellent restaurant in town)
