Hotel was clean and comfortable
This hotel was very nice, however it was not worth the price we paid when comparing to other places we have stayed. One would not expect water stains in the ceilings and mould in the tub when paying over $300 per night. Hotel was clean and quiet -however they seemed to be low on staff-considering a few staff members commented about just how busy they were. The beach is so close and beautiful-which is a major selling point for sure!!Would we stay again? Likely not given the price and amenities offered.

Nice to stay at a hotel with visible management and staff who really care about the guests experience and put their satisfaction at a priority. The staff throughout all went the extra mile to make our stay memorable and enjoyable. This is one of the few places we've been where we will immediately be planning a return visit.

Best of Albufeira
A wonderful holiday here. It was very quiet since it is adults only. Great free breakfast, wonderful staff! The pool wasn’t heated and was a bit cold. We wished they had no smoking on the balconies. Our neighbor smoked continuously out there. Strangely there’s no address so finding it was very difficult.

Pool is the highlight
Really great pool area which is the highlight of this hotel. Breakfast is ok, the fresh fruit selection is quite limited. Omelettes/pancakes on offer but couldn’t find the chef to make them. Would be nice if there was a clear eating area outside for breakfast. Room was clean and tidy, having to pay each day for new coffee pods really sets the wrong tone for a 4* hotel, quite odd and never experienced that before. Gym was small but had good basic equipment. Very close to the beach.

Vila Gale is a small hotel in a nice location about a 3 min walk from a lovely beach. I liked that the hotel is not in a busy town but had a more relaxed vibe. Rooms were nice and there is a pillow menu but you need to ask. Breakfast had many options and everything was fresh. The pool area is beautiful and lunch by the pool was great. It is an easy drive or walk to several restaurants and not too far from Albuferia. I can definitely recommend this hotel.

We really enjoyed the fact that the hotel only has 42 rooms. Also, it is outside of the city but so close to the beach. The staff were all amazing and so helpful. Breakfast was included and it had a huge choice of options to choose from. Our favourite hotel during our Portugal trip.
