The Algarve / Central Algarve region

The Central Algarve area stretches approximately 50 miles across with Faro its capital being a vibrant and cosmapolitan town steeped in history with plenty of traditional architecture to see and an abundance of nearby picturesque villages, golden sandy beaches and stunning golf courses.

The old fishing village of Albufeira, (made a town in 1986), is the most popular of these and it's not hard to see why with the whole area awash with dramatic coastline which is characterised by sandstone cliffs winding down onto plenty of long golden sandy beaches and with the wide choice of beaches and small coves it is possible with a little exploration to easily find a secluded spot even in the height of summer.

If you are an explorer you may wish to head inland where you will find some beautiful countryside and idyllic hamlets and villages or you can choose from numerous excursions out onto the water, whichever is your choice.

The Albufeira / Club Albufeira area

Our apartment is approximately 2km from the 'Old Town' and is set within the safe and secure Portuguese village style Clube Albufeira complex and is sited towards the quiet rear on the ground floor amongst mature and beautifully maintained grounds. There are 4 on-site swimming pools, the nearest being 'The Cascata', approximately 1 minute from the apartment, which is also heated for the cooler months with snack bars and restuarants offering local, Europeon and 'A la Carte' dishes. You are close enough for a short walk into town or you can use the free courtesy shuttle bus from the 24 hour reception which has internet facilities, public telephone and ATM cash machine and whose friendly and helpfull staff are there to help 24 hours a day with whatever query you may have.

The Old Town is charming with its cobbled side streets, bustling centre square, daily market stalls, evening entertainers, cafes, bars and fine restuarants right alongside the beautiful sandy Fishermans Beach. In addition the adjacent beach area of Priara d'Oura and the lively Montechoro strip offer thriving nightlife, cafes, bars, shops and restuarants to cater for all.

If you dont want to just kick back there is also the acclaimed Zoo Marine, Water Parks, Modern Marina, etc, or you may wish to try your hand at Local Big Game Fishing, Sailing, Water Sports, Paragliding, Scuba Diving, Boat Excursions, Horse Riding, Caving, Jeep Safaris, Quad Bike Treks, Bicycle Touring, Hiking, Cycling, Museums, Churches, etc etc. If shopping is of interest then the Old Town has daily market stalls or you may wish to visit The large Algarve Shopping Complex which is an approximate 5 min drive with a cinema, bowling alley and a host of designer shops and retail outlets.

The resort is also central to nearly golf 30 courses, many championship quality and reputed to be some of the finest in Europe all within an approximate 5 -35 minute drive including the well known courses at Vilamoura, Vila sol, Vale Do Lobo, Quinta Do Lago, Salgados, Penina, Boa Vista, Pinhal Do Concelho, Vale Do Milho, Vale Do Pinta, Pinhal, Palmares, Pinheiros Altos, Ria Formosa, Gramacho, Lagos, Balaia, Sao Lourenco, etc. etc. Discounted green fees are available from reception or pre-booking before you travel can achieve significant discounts.

Faro airport is now easily reached from most airports via most airlines and the apartment is within a simple 30 min drive and private transfers can be arranged, (1-4 people approx 40 euros), (5-6 people approx 50 euros). If wished you can be met at the terminal, taken directly to the apartment, handed the keys and shown around.

The complex is ideally sited far enough away from the airport but within easy reach with well priced flights available year round.

Car hire is not essential as there is a courtesy shuttle bus from the 24 hour reception into town but if required it can be arranged and we are happy to help.

“Excellent!!!!” The apartment was fantastic, spacious and well fitted with the grounds and pools superb and clean. The location was great, a pleasant amble into town or a few mins in a taxi if you were lazy. There was also a free shuttle bus which was handy and the reception staff were friendly and helpful. We loved the beaches and Albufeira old town and will be back (Martin M. - Sept 2012)

“Fab time in Portugal!” From the point of booking to our time spent at the apartment the staff at Complete and those at the complex were all very helpful, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The complex was very well maintained, especially the swimming pools and restaurants which were reasonably priced as were the bars and restaurants in town which is lovely. The apartment had everything we required and as it was situated on the ground floor it was just great to sit out on the patio in the evening and enjoy the last of the days sunshine with a glass of wine. We tried and can recommend the beach BBQ, which was organised by the locals and the all day fishing was a success with 18 in total tuna caught plus Zoo Marine is a must for the family ! We can definitely recommend the apartment and the area and will be back !.... (Annette + Kev - Sept 2012)

“Excellent apartment” We stayed here in August as we were getting married out in Portugal. The apartment was very clean and spacious and set back out the way of the pool so no noise, but it is only 2 minute walk. It was... more

“fantastic relaxing family vacation” A fantastic family holiday which went by far too quickly which we would happily recommend to family and friends and we hope to return again in the future. We thought the apartment was in a good location with the “Old Town” not too far away and easily accessible at night with a good choice of restaurants. Clean and comfortable, conveniently situated and everything went very smoothly, only one or two minor glitches with transport/taxi's when in Portugal. Linda Fletcher

“Chill out time in Portugal” Hi Ken, we had a lovely time thank you and here is some feedback for future visitors:- The apartment is on the ground floor, in a quiet location, so no strains taking your luggage up flights of stairs with 2 comfortable double bedrooms, 1 with an en-suite bathroom and there is a good size family bathroom for everybody else. The kitchen has all you need, whether you want to snack, take away or try your hand at Portuguese cuisine (they don't only eat sardines !) and there is a complete set of laundry equipment which means you should not run out of clean clothes. The living area has a new TV + DVD for those times when you need to get your fix of Corrie, East Enders, etc or enjoy a movie and there is a collection of paperbacks if you run out of reading material with the fire place to remind you it is probably cold and wet back home. Then there is the patio which is ideal for outdoor eating and drinking, and leads to a private grassy area where you can sun bathe. Club Albufuera is a hilly complex and you need to bear that in mind, although once you get to Casa Blanco you will enjoy the view. The resort is approx 2k from the town of Albufeira and you can walk it in about 20-30 minutes – beware that it is a quite a hilly area, and it will be hot, (which is why we come here!). The alternatives are taxis (cheap when compared to the UK) or buses (again cheap when compared to the UK). There are 4 pools with 1-10 minutes and the reception is just inside the main entrance where the friendly staff can book you tours, rental cars, taxis, as well as answering your questions. There is a small mini-mart shop selling essentials (milk, bread, wine, beer etc) and there is a Lidl supermarket within walking distance. The town has plenty of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops and there is also plenty of entertainment in the town square most evenings. We had a wonderful relaxing time and will most defiantly be returning. Mike and Teresa - Sept, 2011

“ENJOYABLE FROM START TO FINISH” Beautiful complex,pools and restaurants.Grounds well maintained and staff always to be seen busy and friendly.Plenty of hills throughout the grounds but taxis are cheap and plentiful for getting about and will drop you as close to your door as possible. Booking of this apartment was very easy and quick and we had no problems from our first contact to our last.All queries were dealt with quickly and satisfactory. Apartment was finished to a very high standard,bedrooms were spacious with lots of storage and having two bathrooms was great. Kitchen was well fitted and there was no shortage of crockery,glasses etc.Kids loved having the tv and dvd player[they brought their own dvds from home]. Having separate freezer was fab as is meant we were able to stock up the shopping[Lidl was close by] and there was a taxi rank outside it so no heavy loads to carry. Zoomarine is well worth a visit,kids loved it[4 year old and 3 year old].We booked it at reception and the pick up point was just outside the complex on the opposite side of the road so that was very handy. Melanie was great to deal with,very helpful and friendly and responded to any queries very quickly and satisfactory. All in all we had a fantastic family holiday and the kids are already asking when are we going back.

“The apartment is perfectly placed for a family holiday” The apartment was well presented and maintained to a high standard. It is located on a holiday park that has very good safe/clean amenities, which are perfect for a family holiday with children of all ages. The location is a short drive away (or Taxi ride) from several stunning safe beaches. It is also close enough to pop into Albufeira in the evening, where there are many good restraints and sites to be seen in both the old and new parts of the town. All our family enjoyed the stay and we are looking forward to visiting again. We also booked a welcome pack, which was there on arrival and was good value. The deposits we paid, were returned promptly following our stay. Thanks.

“Why look for better when you have the best” We would like to thank you for making our stay in Clube Albuifera, Casa Branco a very comfortable and relaxing time, we feel this was greatly helped by the size of the apartment and the facilities that were on offer, the location of the apartment was ideal as it was located right by the pool and park for which my children spent most of their time, the recommended restaurant for which was within a 1 minute walk was excellent and staff all round the complex were very friendly and always helpful, having stayed in Albuifera before i felt the location of the resort was better than our previous visits to other resorts as very close to old and new towns, i would recommend this apartment/complex to any other family with young children looking for a Great family holiday
