Hotel Vila Gale Praia - Albufeira

We went to Praia Gale in 09/12. The staff were very welcoming and extremely helpful. The hotel is modern, clean and comfortable. The breakfast buffet food is good, if not some what repetitive, however it is possible to ask for items which are not displayed on the buffet i.e. omlettes etc., The is little to do in the immediate vacinity of the hotel except […] relax and visit the beach, which is absolutely superb. There are a few restaurants on the beach, which we visited as an alternative to eating soley at the hotel. Do not waste your time with room service, which was the only disappointment in our visit. The food was served on cold plates and was generally tasteless. However, this should not detract from the overall ambience of the hotel. It has a beautiful pool and spa within the premises. The hotel is suited to couples and does not seem to facilitate children at all. We hired a car and had a fantastic time travlling around the area Đọc thêm

Very helpful staff and great location for a quiet holiday mainly aimed at couples. Have stayed here before and standards are still high. Rooms could do with some modest updating (according to reception some hotel refurbishment was due to happen over the winter months) but very clean. Plenty of places to eat within easy walking distance - good choice […] of food at breakfast. Bar service was a little patchy. Đọc thêm

We arrived after midnight and although room service was not available the very nice chap at reception provided everything we needed to make us welcome. The rooms are well equipped and the pool area was all we could want for a very relaxing stay. I would recommend this hotel for those who want peace and quiet and staff are always on hand for anything […] you need. The only small complaint I would make was that the gym's air con was not working so when you use the gym, it was a bit stuffy and you would leave sooner than later. The breakfast was on par with the best hotels and the evening meals were superb. Đọc thêm

I liked the location of the hotel, very close to the beach and couple of restaurants. The hotel was nice, clean and tidy, The staff were extremely attentive and nice. We did not eat in the hotel's restaurant but the breakfast was very cold and bland.

Very nice place to stay if you like the quiet retreat, food is good and pool sauna and other parts of the hotel are nice, not many shops around so plan to get your bits before or plan for a trip to the shops after.

This is our 4th visit to this hotel. Granted the rooms (especially bathrooms) could do with little freshen up but nevertheless everything is clean and comfortable. The only thing we weren't keen was the hotel restaurant's evening menu - bit too fancy for us, we dine out every night to proper Portuguese restaurants where there are plenty of variety of […] food on their menus. Breakfast was very good - plenty of varieties and food to choose from (Waitress Catarina is great, smiles a lot and very helpful#. For lunch we pop down #only 5 mins slow walk# to the one of the beach restaurants #overlooking the beach# - delicious food and coffee. Plenty of sunloungers around the pool for everybody. If you feel energetic, you can walk along the beach from Gale to next town #Armacao de Pera# - slow walk takes about an hour and 15 mins. Have a nice refreshing drink in the cliff cafe before walking back to Gale beach. We chose this hotel because of its isolation and quietness so this would not be suitable for anyone needing noisy nightlife or haven't got a car to get around #though there's hotel's bus service to Albufeira#. Car park to beach can get very packed in July/August #you can park your hired car in roads near the Apolonia supermarket at the back of hotel if you can't find a parking space at the front of hotel) Can't wait to go back there again next year!!

A small but intimate (about 48 rooms) hotel, but with an upmarket feel and the facilities were just superb. Very welcoming and really enjoyed our stay there. In a lovely, quiet location, only less than 5 minute walk from the beautiful beaches. Plenty of beach restaurants nearby too. If you're wanting to head to the shops, experience the night life or […] simply wander around the old town - Albufeira is only 10-15 mins away by hotel shuttle bus. Ideal for couples and families wanting a holiday in a quiet area, but within easy reach to busier areas. Will definitely return there, without a doubt! Đọc thêm

Stayed at the hotel for 10 days, and it was a very good experience. The hotel is located a short drive from Albufeira center (both Old town and New town), but if you're renting a car then the location is not a problem. Relatively small hotel, but very nice, clean, and quiet. Perfect for couples. The hotel is based right next to Gale beach, which has […] some nice lunch places and the beach is great. Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are large and have an empty fridge so you can fill it with your own drinks etc. Đọc thêm

Great reviews of this hotel did not disappoint. We spent 6 fabulous days here with our 2 teenage daughters. We were all looking for complete relaxation and a touch of luxury and that is exactly what we got. Lovely pool area with plenty of sunbeds available without it feeling crowded and the pool itself is perfect. The hotel bar/ restaurant was excellent […] for both lunch and dinner, and we felt was far better value than the local beach bars which we had not expected. Staff were charming and could not have been more helpful. Worth having a room with pool view. Firm mattresses suited us...fabulous pillows made for a great nights sleep and the beds are huge. The only disappointments for us were that the free wifi was limited and we struggled to get reception for most of our stay, the tennis was far too expensive (10 euros an hour plus 5 euros for each racket) and the showers did not really reflect the 5 star standards of everything else the hotel had to offer. Hope to return here again and would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing break. Đọc thêm

From the moment that we arrived the standard of service was excellent and never deteriorated. Hotel staff were all excellent and informative about the area around Gale and told us about the location of a superb restaurant that specialise in serving fish and seafood. The resort was just what we expected, quiet for chilling out and no kids in sight!

The hotel looks nice enough, but the service is dreadful. We waited 20 mins at re bar and eventually had to go to reception to get someone to serve us. Lunch the same, they seemed to have 1 person covering inside and out. The rooms were comfortable but towels were a bit threadbare. We has a nice pool view room, but you could barely get on tha balcony […] because the curtains were all jammed in the rail. There is no private car park, you need to use the public parking out front, and some yob dented my hire car. The £100 charge for that made it an expensive night. For a 4 star hotel I would have expected tea and coffee making facilities, but there were none. Bizzarly in this day and age - no free Internet access, not even from the pc in 'the library' Đọc thêm

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 5 nights and I am already planning my next trip back. The hotel was fantastic and better than we could have hoped for. The staff went out of their way to make our stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible. They were always friendly and helpful and the service was outstanding. The food in the hotel was wonderful […] and drinks were no more expensive than anywhere else in Albufeira, in fact, we were fortunate enough to be offered a free bottle of wine with our meal in the restaurant on the first night. The pool area is quiet and peaceful and there was plenty of sun loungers available for all the guests to use. I loved the fact that the hotel provided beach towels and robes. The spa was always very quiet, we often had the place to ourselves. It was extremely relaxing! The beach is a two minute walk and is spotless. There are jet skis etc which can be hired and plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas. The beach restaurants are very pleasant but it is hard to beat the hotel restaurant for food. The hotel runs a free shuttle bus into old town Albufeira three times a day and we availed of this twice to head in for a more lively night out! Again, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the taxi journey home at night only cost 8-9 Euros. Overall the hotel is a hidden gem I will definitely be returning to. It is ideal for couples looking for a quiet and relaxed getaway with the option of heading into town for a more lively night out. Đọc thêm

A lovely medium-sized hotel with very friendly and helpful staff, simple modern design, a surprisingly good restaurant, and a nice big pool with lots of room around so that it never seemed crowded. Best of all though is its proximity (2 mins walk) to some fantastic beaches with plenty of space and great little seafood restaurants.

We stayed there during the off-season (January)and it was a little difficult to find but we stopped several times for directions and all the neighbors were so nice. Once we got there, we were immediatly greeted by name and the Concierge was so nice. The accomodations were 1st class. The restaurant (the Chef) was amazing. A little expensive but worth […] every bit. We did the Spa and service was top notch. Small resort (maybe 50 or less rooms), short walk to the cliffs of the ocean and there was an amazing small (blue) cafe overlooking the ocean - great place for coffee and something sweet. Serves mainly seafood and was incredible. Hotel and staff were 1st class, personally not recommended for children, romantic and yet classy enough for business. Will be back! Will need a car, in summer (seasonal months) maybe things are a little more accesible but we drove quite a bit. Most restaurants and shops due not open until April/May but the hotel was amazing, clean, definetley a spa resort, small and luxerious. Đọc thêm

Catia, the front of house was extremely helpful and it is mainly due to her knowledge of the area and little tips that we had such an enjoyable experience. We were offered a bottle of champagne on the house and nibbles on our first night which was lovely. The shuttle to Albufeira was helpful and make sure you book your taxi from the hotel reception […] as it is cheaper. Make sure you visit Albufeira's Fisherman's beach and Santa Eulalia. And hire a car and do a roadtrip to Sagres, Cabo de St vincente, Silves and the Vilamoura Casino. Only suggestion to the hotel would be to provide a kettle in the rooms.

An excellent hotel for couples to relax and unwind. There are around 40 rooms, on three floors, fully carpeted so very quiet. Also complimentary safe - very useful. It is very close to the beach - a hundred metres or so. There is a pool,small garden, tennis courts, indoor gym, jacuzzi and sauna. There is also free parking outside the hotel. Breakfast […] was very good and the service efficient . The staff were all very friendly and polite. We had one evening meal in the restaurant,which is not inexpensive, but was most enjoyable and nicely presented with a good choice of food. Definitely not a hotel for children or young people. There are a few typical Portuguse restaurants withing easy walking distance and reasonably priced. There is no entertainment in the hotel which is a definite 'plus' for us! Đọc thêm

A very peaceful and quiet hotel next door to the beach, its more boutique with only 40 rooms, and with no childrens facilities, there weren't any so you could hear a pin drop around the pool and enjoy a relaxing swim whenever you wanted.. The breakfast was until 11am and no rugby scrums, very peaceful, great choices (even champagne) and very nice staff. […] The rooms were kept very clean, we had a garden view which overlooked villas but we don't sit in the room so it didn't bother us. We were in a heat wave so the air con in our room and in the hotel areas was welcomed. All staff were very helpful. There is a great supermarket around the back of the hotel and the beach is a 2 min walk, go left and find some smaller coves, there less crowded and a delight. We ate in all 3 restaurants on the beach and found them very nice especially the views but a nice 20 min walk takes you to Sao Domingoes, ask at reception, and never think you have gone past it as it pops out of nowhere, but the food is wonderful and very reasonable, very unlike us we went back twice, try the codfish in cream, its like a fish pie and so tasty. We also went into Albufiera, a 10 euro taxi drive, we went for a night out but found the drinks expensive and not a great atmosphere, more geared to families and avoid the marina, its more like blackpool pier.. However by the hotel it is very quiet with nothing to do, we were happy to eat locally, enjoy a walk on the beach and head back as wanted to relax, if you are looking for nights out rethink... The taxi from the airport was seventy euro, back to the airport it was fifty euro BUT the peace and quiet was well worth it, we always stay in 4* plus and I have to admit the attention to detail wasn't quiet there for a 4* but the relaxing atmosphere they create makes it a 5* in our book. We only ate once for lunch in the hotel as ran out of nights, but it was very nice, well presented and reasonable, Oh and theres a little cafe outside the hotel that sells ice cream Đọc thêm
