Friendly team, nice location, just set back far enough to not be in the noisy night life of the old town, but close enough to walk within in a few minutes. Breakfast was pretty standard, but worked for us. Rooms were a good size, plenty of space, balcony over looking the ocean was a nice touch.
The place lives up to the price point. Nice room and bathroom, clean everywhere, personell very very polite and helpful. Its easy to get around. The proximity to the beach its great (the beach itself its clean and well maintained).
Definetly somewhere i would return with pleasure.
Extremely good hotel, location, decor and staff. Pool out of order during our stay and wouldn't recommend the free sister hotel pool up the road! But you do have a lovely beach tight there so not needed! Great stay

There was a condom under our bed when we arrived, rooms weren’t clearly cleaned or restocked. But the location was amazing and worth it.
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Sol e Mar and would definitely come back.
Service was outstanding from the moment we arrived. We got there early and our room was already ready, which made the start of the trip so much easier. The staff were friendly, helpful, and genuinely made us feel welcome.
The room was clean and spacious, with a balcony and a beautiful view of the beach. Falling asleep to the sound of the sea and waking up to that view was one of the best parts of the stay.
The location is hard to beat. The hotel elevator gives easy access down to the beach, and the tunnel from the beach up to the Old Town is extremely convenient. You can be on the sand one minute and in the restaurants and shops a few minutes later.
Breakfast was included and truly top notch — a great selection and a lovely way to start the day. We also enjoyed the nightly entertainment in the hotel. It was a nice, relaxed way to end the evening without having to go far.
Clean rooms, excellent service, a superb location, and a breakfast we looked forward to every morning. Highly recommended.

The hotel is in the most beautiful location easy walk to major restaurants and the town. The hotel is old and dated but the view and location made up for it
Perfect location, probably the best in Albufeira old town, great breakfasts and friendly staff, highly recommended, Property ace location is due to it being 60 years there, but it has been modenised very well, so dedicated room aircon, updated bathroom and superb showers.
Beach umbrellas were not included and it was not at all clear in the description. Toilet paper was hard as sandpaper. Bath towels are dingy, old and hard. No tissue paper, no lotions, one bottle of water. Coffee pods that did not work. I was given a room on floor 1 with an obstructed view with two big flags blocking my view. Noisy as hell in the morning and evening with the restaurant workers dragging chairs into and out of the restaurant. Coinvent location, breakfast buffet great but beach towels require a deposit and many had holes in them. For an expensive hotel these faults should not exist. The fridge in the room is a chiller and does not do much to get the drinks cold (I was there when another guest complained about this as well). Jorge and Jorge were very informative and helpful.
Yes rooms is clean n location was amazing and very quiet in room, and near by all shops and so many restaurant even the back of hotel on beaches . Love it
Great location in Old Town. Roof top room overlooked the ocean. Room was very clean and big. The included breakfast was wonderful as we looked out on the water and beach. We were able to check in early after an overnight flight and have breakfast too. We enjoyed the adults only atmosphere. Would easily stay here again.
There's no obstruction from the hotel balcony. Perfect views of the sea and fab sunrise and sunset. I will definitely be staying here again. Staff are friendly and as a solo traveller, hotel is perfectly located for restaurants and going to the marina for day trips. Loved my stay.
Beautiful property located on the beach with several restaurants, bars and shopping across the street from the hotel. Friendly and accommodating staff.
