This was our first trip to Portugal. I would definitely recommend Vila Petra for adults and families. Immaculately clean, well maintained, quiet (expecially in the annex buildings) with excellent staff everywhere. It has gained it's star rating honestly and would not disappoint anyone.

5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was friendly and the rooms were kept very clean every day! The area was quiet but still close to everything. By car it only takes 5 minutes to the nice beach of St Eulalia and to the old town of Albufeira.

Great for family vacation

Great location, with walking distance to a wide selection of restaurants. The polo was clean and spacious. The rooms were big and the kitchen was well equipped. The only drawback was that I found the bed to be a little too hard.
May L Hårstad, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy check in and check out. Pleasant and accommodating staff. The property and room were clean and comfortable. Several food options at the hotel as there aren’t many restaurants around the area unless you walk to the strip. Aldi’s grocery store close. Uber and taxis made it easy to get around but we walked around town and the beach for the most part. All in all a great stay for the price.

Fab Hotel

Hotel was great. Didn’t use all of the facilities or entertainment as we were out and about most of the time. Entertainment area was busy but relaxing in the evening. Pool is excellent and no bother getting a sunlounger. Spacious rooms and good air con! 300 euro or pounds cash security deposit for groups. We didn’t have to pay it though - be mindful you might be asked to if a few of you check in together.

A little Gem

Had very little expectation going to Vila Petra as was booked late and last minute. The facility is clean and well maintained. Where it excels is its Staff, from check in to every interaction with staff it was superb.
David, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I didn’t like hearing people coming back drunk in the morning from the strip. They were quite loud. You can hear people from other bedrooms.
Celine, 10-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was ok to the new town. Property quite nice, a little dated but very functional. Had a one bedroom which was great. Very bright and roomy. Only complaint was the quality of the beds. Only offer two twin beds and were not comfortable for two adults. Probably ok for children.
Denise, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

It would have been nice not to have any young families above us. Babies crying and parents rushing to take care of the little ones. The hotel was not at capacity we could have been given another room. The entertainment group was great for having activities every night.
Norman, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the room. Full kitchen. With Aldi nearby we were able to have several meals in the room. This hotel very much had a cruise feel. Tons of kids and activities. Great if you have kids. If not, the noise from the pool area wasn’t great - started early and went late. If you dont want a very noisy room maybe request one that faces the street.
