Hotel/ Albufeira

Hi All,

Looking for any recommendations.

I'm planning a hen party for May next year - looking at Albufeira as an option but finding it difficult to tell on tripadvisor etc, how close the hotels are to the Strip.

We'd like the cheapest hotel we can get that's OKish and want to be about 5 mins (max 10 mins) walk to the Strip.

Does anyone know of any hotels to fit this description?!!

Many thanks,
pippitypip

    You'll have to make up your own mind from the reviews on sites such as TripAdvisor, but this hotel is right on the strip.

    I haven't stayed there but when I was searching for a hotel in Albureira a couple of years ago it always seemed to be cheap.

  • i would recommend the areias village, lovely modern hotel 2 minutes from strip (where all the main night life is). ten minutes from beach and spotlessly clean. food is limited but of superb quality

    Thank you so much - the Areias village has really good reviews and is the cheapest I've found by a mile, works out at £30 each TOTAL for 3 nights (3 to a room)!

    Brilliant - thanks again,
