I have honestly never stayed in a hotel that is cleaner than this place. It was immaculate (and I had 2 rooms) both exceptional.
The staff at reception and bar go above and beyond. They are so friendly and kind.
I would come back here in a heartbeat. Thank you.
Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The bathroom looked a bit worn and could use some updating. There was also an issue with the breakfast pricing: the website stated that children’s breakfast was $8.50, but when we asked at the hotel, we were told that children were charged the same price as adults. It would be helpful if the pricing information was consistent. Other than that, the staff were friendly and the location was perfect for us.
Lovely apartment with kitchen dinning area and pool view indoor and out door pool.
Masjid 5mins away
Beach and other activities very close aswel

The Building is looks old.
Check-in was confusing - we booked 2 rooms but only got 1 key at first. The 2nd room was given to us later, but another family was already inside which was awkward to sort out.
Rooms were clean and housekeeping came every 2 days.
The outdoor pool was good. Staff did eventually fix the issue, but the mix-up left a bad first impression.

Pros - hotel is in nice location with nice restaurants and close to new strip if that's what your looking for.
-Staff friendly
Cons - NOT recommended for families. - Full of groups of young lads drinking and littering the pool area.
- Beers and tobacco scattered around pool area.
- Broken glass around kids pool.
- Pizza and beer plastic cups floating on kids pool.
- Alot of very loud noise at night
- Apartment not very clean, alot of dust on shelves and broken glass left under sink.
Will not return.
Great hotel- fantastic pool area. Very comfortable beds but you can hear the traffic but wouldn’t stop us from
going back. Very central position- Spar shop only a few minutes walk away, lots of restaurants and shops nearby. 10 mins walk to the strip and 20 minutes to
old town. Taxis are extremely reasonable. Would definitely go back
We have stuck with Ondamar for out last few visits the rooms spacious, the location is between the strip and old town gorgeous beach short walk away (taxi back) lovely grounds
Appreciated the housekeeping and when asked for ice for my mom when she fell, they sent some right away.
Would be nice to have dish soap and a sponge and a starter bottle of water for the room. We arrived past midnight so could not get any groceries. Staff was very friendly and nice.
My sister’s crib was not in the room for her baby and couldn’t get one until the next day. When she got it, it didn’t fit in the bedroom.
The process of getting pool towels is not Efficient. Waited 30 min in line along with people getting food and beer and I just needed 1 towel. Poor staff needs more help. Would be good to have another area to help with towels.
Fresh water and fruit in the entrance is nice.
Front desk staff helpful with getting directions to the train.

I like how it fit my family of 6 and the front desk agents had great customer service.
Nel generale buono. Bella la piscina e ha anche una buona palestra. La pulizia è superficiale e minima, potrebbe migliorare. Personale attento e disponibile.

Very clean hotel, rooms cleaned daily, towels and supplies provided daily. Pool area always clean and tidy.
Great stay for 3 nights rooms were big and clean and good value for money compared to other options in the area. Only real complaint was that the bar staff beside the pool were quite slow!
Hotel is very good, good location but check in took forever. Rooms are very spacious. Pool is a good size. Pints of beer/cider 5 euro a pint.
Chinese across the road very nice.
Came up on family friendly option but was full of noisy drunken stag do’s. The rooms were run down and dirty like most of the hotel - what food there was was overpriced and frankly disgusting. It’s a budget option so don’t be put off if that’s all you need but we found other, better places for the same price nearby
Nous regrettons amèrement d’avoir choisi cet hôtel. Nous avons passé 4 nuits, les 3 premières nous n’avons pratiquement pas dormi. D’abord parce que notre chambre était située entre deux bars, celui à l’arrière et celui en avant ( restaurant bar chinois). La porte était très mal isolée, d’ailleurs on voyait le jour sous la porte et sur le côté. Ensuite, c’était le party dans l’hôtel avec aucun contrôle du personnel… une nuit ça criait d’un balcon à l’autre jusqu’à 6:00 am. Evidemment on a été se plaindre à la réception et nous avons réussis à dormir un peu plus par la suite, le bruit cessant vers 1:00 am. Aucun respect pour les personnes qui voulaient dormir. Par contre, point positif, piscine bien entretenue et miniputt joli mais difficile . Le ménage n’est pas fait pendant le séjour, une seule fois changement de serviettes. Pas de savon pour les mains dans la cuisinette, pas de détergent pour lave-vaisselle ni cafetière . Nous ne recommanderons assurément pas cet hôtel
A group of us stayed for 3 nights and all of us were very happy with the hotel, the service we received and the excellent location.
The beds and umbrellas around the pool area seem to be recently updated, the entire hotel was spotlessly clean, reception staff were friendly and helpful. The beds were very comfortable (We stayed in the pool studios).
We did have some noise from other guests, and we could hear noise from other rooms, but it is to be expected due to the location, it is close to the strip. Whilst it is close to the Strip it is also far enough away that you can relax and feel remove from it.
Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Albufeira!

We came close to the end of October. The indoor pool heater was broken which made even that pool not very enjoyable. And the outside temperature has not been great for swimming outdoors. The 2 bedroom apartment was clean and spacious for a family of 5. The beds were very uncomfortable and the noise was very loud from restaurants and bar near hotel till 2am. Which made it hard to sleep. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. It’s in a nice location.
Nothing at all wrong with the hotel, it's nice and comfortable and the room was clean and tidy. Pool is lovely too although we spent most of our stay out and about in town.
My gripe is that the deposit they require they insisted in paying in cash. The paperwork was not clear on this and I expected to be able to do this on a card and they money to be held on that until we left.
As a result this cleaned me out of the cash I brought on the trip, in fact I had to lend some off someone else, and then on the last day they hand it back to you. Not much good now I'm leaving!
Not sure if this was because we were an all male party but it was very unusual and the staff acted cagily when we checked in.
August 2025, family of 4 stayed in a two bedroom apartment on the second floor.
First time in Portugal I really didn’t know where to choose to stay, mixed reviews about the accommodation but I just went with it.
Lovely friendly staff, beautiful pool, great location and the apartment was clean, spacious, kitchen well equipped and the apartment cleaned daily. Some parts of the hotel could do with being modernised but it really wasn’t a big deal.
The safe was located beside reception and easy to access 24/7.
The pool had a mix of majority families and a few groups of girls and fellas in their 20/30s, no issues with unacceptable behaviour at all, everyone was just enjoying themselves. Some families there were saying it was their second or third year coming back.
There is a pool bar which serves drinks and snacks.
The strip was a 7 minute walk, the old town a 25 minute walk and the beach 15 min walk. Ubers between 3-4 euro so easy to get about if you don’t fancy walking.
So in summary an enjoyable stay at the Ondamar, good location, safe environment and lovely staff.
