Our stay started off rocky as the room we are originally given was across the street and one of their other buildings and was not what we were expecting. We had wanted a washer in the unit so they were able to upgrade us to a hotel room in the main building for an extra $40 for the three nights. Well worth it. The room was much nicer and updated. The kitchen was fully functional with stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher and a washing machine. Our balcony was spacious and offered beautiful views. My only major complaint was that the bathroom light was motion censored, which was incredibly aggressive in the middle of the night when the last thing you wanted was bright shining lights.

Reception Service was great from Miriam. The cleaning staff were friendly. Location was not far from the old town it was downhill to get there and up hill to walk back. A lot of steps up and down if walking to the old town.
Make sure you are ready to leave at checkout time. I had misplaced my passport in our apartment and was about 30 minutes before I found it therefore we were about 30 minutes late leaving and they were not happy with us. Calling and knocking on the door.
We would not recommend eating at the hotel restaurant. The food was not great. Our apartment neighbours said the food was much better 2 years ago. They were also not impressed with the food.

Loved our stay here.
The staff were very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much.
We had an apartment which was extremely clean and well kept.
We had a spectacular view from our balcony.
The spa was a nice extra and again part of the service.
The location was perfect, close to the d town and other places of interest, all of which were accessible by foot or other means.
I highly recommend this hotel and would stay again.

Another stay at Cerro Mar. We arrived late at night due to a delayed flight. Our apartment was in the Rua Malpique block. If we had known we could have been dropped off there instead of having to lug our bags up the hill. It can't be hard to get an email before we arrive. Apart from that, our
stay was the usual lovely apartment at a good price.

My wife and I rented an apartment for 6 weeks and it exceeded our expectations for sure. Very, very clean throughout all of the buildings.
The maid service is excellent and always thorough.
Front desk staff are very helpful and speak multiple languages very well.
We really enjoy the happy hours at the hotel bar, the servers are excellent, wine are beer are great and the prices are very fair.
The best part about this location is that it's close walking distance to old town Albufeira where there are many dining options and shopping experiences.
We are already looking to book for 2026.
