Top-rated hotels and VIP daytrips are the ingredients of our luxury breaks to Portugal’s top beach resort, Albufeira.
Book a smart hotel
The luxury hotels in Albufeira tout classic good looks. Expect whitewashed walls, terracotta roofs and flower-bedecked balconies. Plus, a generous dollop of Atlantic views. The Hotel Do Cerro is a top choice — not least because it’s got a spa.
Shop ‘til you drop
Swish shops like Guess, Levi’s and Giovanni Galli stock the supersized Algarve Shopping mall. For something different, hop on a daytrip to the Medieval city of Loule. As well as artisan shops and stalls, it’s home to a massive Moorish covered market.
Peruse Portugal
There’s loads to see beyond the beaches of Albufeira. For starters, there’s Porsche — a Medieval town full of artisans crafting world-class pottery. Then there’s Benagil, which perches above toffee-coloured cliffs and caves. Algar Seco is where you’ll spy bizarre rock formations. And the Daz-white houses of Ferragudo revolve around an old-world village square.
