Guest Reviews
- Dominik (9/5): - Top
- Cristina (6/5): Desagradable - El lugar agradable El personal antipatico, habiamos reservado en un lugar y tuvimos que ir a buscar las llaves a otro. Para no movernos tanto nos ofrecieron por poca diferencia quedarnos en el complejo cerca del hotel, y luego nos cobraron más de lo que nos dijeron. Fue muy desagradable la estadia
- Harte (8/5): Pleasant experience dealing with the staff - Location and the apartment was cleaned every day
- phikun (7/5): -
- Gabriel Ptaszynski (8/5): It was brilliant - A very clean and comfortable place in a lovely neighbourhood, close to local amenities, the beach, and the old town.
There are plenty of plates, cutlery, cups, and everything was spotless.
The flat is cleaned every day, and the towels are replaced with fresh ones daily.
The swimming pool is great.
There’s also a beautiful view of the city from under the palm tree in the corner ;-)
- Oleksandr (10/5): -
- Noreen (8/5): - Loved the location so near the main area. No complaints
- María (10/5): -
- Noemi (5/5): - Los ingleses a las tantas de la mañana borrachos gritando, discutiendo y tirando sillas en la piscina
- Francesco (6/5): -
- Henry (9/5): -
- Rina (8/5): A- , if there was WiFi I would give A-plus - No WiFi
- Silviu Valentin (8/5): A beautiful apartment that would have potential - The studio is very spacious, with a generous balcony, with table and chairs for two people. Since we only stayed one night, we did not use the facilities in the inner courtyard (pool, sun loungers). The kitchen facilities are also sufficient. Since the bedroom window faces the common hall and the street, it was quite noisy at night.
The hotel's policy regarding kitchen supplies is wrong. There is NOTHING. You can't find a dish sponge, no detergent, no salt or other spices. I'm sure that the tourists who stay leave what they have left behind, but everything is taken away by the cleaning staff. We should leave the dishes dirty, maybe that's how they can bear to put a sponge and dish detergent. You can't buy a set of kitchen sponges and a bottle of detergent for one night. I don't think the hotel would go bankrupt if they provided even that much. The pretext of hygiene is false. There is salt in dispenser-type containers, and the cost of a new sponge, if bought as a set, is minimal.
- Sinead (7/5): Room to improve - Nice location, clean, and quiet Having to pick up and drop off keys at a different location which isn’t close, a self check in/check out method would work so much better
- Rina (8/5): Misleading information on the website. Free parking is very nice, but no "24 hour reception or WIFI" - Spacious, nice, free parking The info on the website is mislleading! NO WIFI -- or you can get it in a hotel 15 min walk away, if you walk fast uphill.
Also, a small pack of detergent for washer and dishwasher would have been be nice. Only packs of 30 are sold, so what do you do with the remaining 28 in every other room?
- Mooney (8/5): - Lovely view.over all happy to stay..great to be able to use facilites in cerro mar Shower could be upgraded. No anti slip mat..bad smell only sometimes coming from kitchen sink.anti syphon needed to be installed on kitchen waste to prevent.
- Arnauld (8/5): Parfait - Les accès au centre ville, parking gratuit , tres calme à cette période Manque micro-ondes dans la cuisine
- Andy (8/5): Fully equipped apartment if you don’t cook - It was spacious and clean, and it had a full kitchen and a washing machine. Parking was easy to find right outside of the building, probably because it was during low season. They didn’t have a sponge or soap to wash the dishes. They also didn’t include detergent. Bring your own oil and spices if you need to cook something.

- Reberth (4/5): Não era possível tomar banho no quarto 305 tive que ficar indo ao quarto 306 tomar banho pois o chuveiro do meu quarto n - Localização . Não era possível tomar banho no quarto 305 tive que ficar indo ao quarto 306 tomar banho pois o chuveiro do meu quarto não esquentava , além de ter um retorno do cheiro do esgoto terrível .
- George (10/5): -
- anna (10/5): - la vue sur la mer, la proximité avec le centre, même si c’est un appartement avoir l’accès à l’hôtel, il faut également noté le personnel très agréable
- Hristina (10/5): - Всичко ми хареса!Местоположението е супер!Гледката е прекрасна:океан и центъра на града !Плажа е съвсем близко!Много съм доволна от престоя си и пак бих резервирала в този хотел !Препоръчвам!
- Terry (8/5): - Clean safe and close to downtown Lots of stairs to get to our room and should let clients know that you have to register at a different location to pickup your keys , really need to put in a lockbox type of system on site
- Jack (10/5): Will be staying again 100% - We got to stay in Cerro Mar hotel which was beautiful, spa facilities, indoor pool, outdoor pool, everything was very clean and perfect.
Staff were very pleasant and helpful The walk back up the steps from the old town square was not fun
- Mauricio (8/5): -
- CoppiaViaggio (8/5): -
- gabriele (5/5): - Das Zimmer war großzügig und gut ausgestattet. Der Pool ist schön. Keine Ruhe ( Dauerbeschallung vom Ort) bis 5 Uhr Früh trotz Nebensaison (Ende Oktober).Schlafen bei offenem Fenster unmöglich. Wer nachts schlafen will, sollte ein Quartier außerhalb von Albufeira wählen!
Silmar ist eine Dependance, kein Personal sichtbar! Das Haus sollte außen mal überholt werden. Alles gut für Ballermannurlauber.
- C (8/5): - We kregen een upgraden ivm de verbouwing van Silmar en kwamen we terecht bij Cerro Mar
heel luxe
- Maria (5/5): viaggio con amici - siamo arrivati in struttura la sera alle 21 abbiamo provato a citofonare alla reeception mai risposto nessuno ne giorno e ne notte, completamente assenti.
per effettuare il ceck-in e ritirare le chiavi dell'appartamento bisognava recarsi in un altro hotel della stessa proprietà distante 15 minuti. Credetemi dopo ore di viaggio è assurdo
- Hristina (10/5): Невероятно изживяване! - Много съм доволна от всичко :настаняване,удобства,чистота,удобствата за готвене,близос до центъра и плажа.невероятен изглед.Препоръчвам на всеки ,които пътува до Албуфейра да отседне в този хотел. Нямам забележки!
- Sunil (6/5): A beautiful outlook onto the beaches but this a place to pop arty as loud music is played until 4am each morning - Location We are in a 3 storey apartment building but we had building works directly under us in the floor below making loud earthwork noise throughout the afternoon. We were not notified of these works and it was not until I complained that it finally stopped at 4pm in the afternoon. The check in office was at a different location. Not the sort of thing you want to hear when on holiday. I would say a lack of respect or consideration and not thought out.
- Dominique (10/5): -
- Ash (8/5): Fantastic stay, lovely apartment in a great location. - Easy check in at the main hotel and friendly reception Perfect location for easy access to the old town. Bars and restaurants nearby. The apartments are large, very clean, comfortable beds and well equipped with good air conditioning. Very good maid service every day. The pool area is adequate and clean with great views and enough sun loungers to go around. The path at the entrance gate is in need of desperate repair as it’s an accident waiting to happen. I’m not sure if it’s the responsibility of the property or the local authority, either way it needs sorting before someone is injured.
- Valerie (6/5): Pas deux fois - Je m’en spacieux La réception, pas sympa du tout, cette réception est 1,04 km de l’hôtel SMAR, je ne sais pas pourquoi avec une valise de 40 kg, ça n’a pas été facile surtout que Albuféra ça monte et ça descend.
Aucune explication pour l’accès à la piscine piscine etc.
- Christiane (7/5): Bien malgré tout - L’appartement Mauvaise adresse pour récupérer les clés - avons cherché et marché à plusieurs endroits. Très déçu
- José David (9/5): Espacioso apartamento con vistas para disfrutar de Albufeira. - Amplio alojamiento y muy cómodo para familias. Hay que recoger la llave en otro lugar.
- Stephen (8/5): -
- Hassana (8/5): -
- Lauren (9/5): Brilliant apartment and location - Very clean and comfortable set up. Nice area and close to amenities, beach & old town.
Plenty plates, cutlery, cups etc and all clean.
Apartment cleaned everyday with fresh towels but there is also a do not disturb sign for the door if you dont want this service.
Great pool area nice and clean! Recommend taxi from hotel where you collect keys to the apartment, especially if you have kids with you! Although it's only a 15-minute walk, the paths are poor or non-existent at points, so you are walking on the road.
If you are only staying a few days I would pop a couple of cleaning products such as dishwasher tablets, a sponge and dishsoap etc. In your bag. Only a dishtowel was provided for the kitcken. The spar at the bottom of the road only sold large bottles of washing up liquid and big packets of sponges etc, so for us only being there a few days it felt like a real waste of money for how little we used.
- Michaela (6/5): Toto ubytovanie by som radila skôr k takým priemerným.Určite by dom uvítala mať v kuchyni aspon základné veci ako cukor - Poloha,výhľad na oceán Nepáčilo sa mi ,že na otváranie a zatváranie dverí na balkón bolo veľmi náročné .Chcelo by to investovať a zmeniť to.Absolútne hrozný bol záves v kúpeľni vo vani ,ktorý to už mal evidentne za sebou a veľmi páchol zatuchlinou.
- María antonella (1/5): Un desastre , nos arruinó el viaje. Los colchones eran los colchones más incómodos de nuestras vidas Un desastre la lim - NADA todo, un desastre la limpieza, los colchones era como dormir sobre una madera, pedimos que no pasen a limpiar porque no nos daba confianza y entraron igual. Todo un desastre
- Didier (8/5): -
- Joan (7/5): Ideal stay for a short break - Location near the beach and old town. That we had to check in and pick keys up at a different hotel 1km away.
The door to the property was very difficult to open.
- Bas (9/5): -
- Gustavo (6/5): - Location, price and size of the apartment. There was a dead cockroach on the room floor. The pictures and the reservation made was considering a room with 2 single beds and we ended up getting a couples bed which was less than ideal.
- Andrew (9/5): -
- Cynthia (10/5): -
- Eoin (9/5): Overall great location and worth the money spent - Location
Comfort

- Will (10/5): -
- Lopes (10/5): -
- Lennie (10/5): - Huge Appartment, perfect for us. We had a baby and a toddler and the cot and bed for them both were perfect.
Lovely pool, never busy and a good size.
Staff came in every day to clean and replenish towels.
I could not recommend this place enough, especially for a family.
Any questions I had were answered quickly by staff via message. We only had one set of keys between 4 adults but to be fair we didn't ask for another set and didn't really have any issues with sharing them.
- Isabel (4/5): - Las prestaciones del cerro mar garden porque silmar era lo peor La foto no se corresponde con la anunciada , el apartamento estaba muy viejo los armarios eran de traca y los sumideros de los lavabos sin cerrar. La alcachofa de la ducha no puede ser más antigua y no tenía ni una escoba, tampoco tiene ascensor .Las fotos corresponden por fuera a cerro mar garden que ese si está fenomenal .
- Jose Maria (7/5): Buen sitio para unas vacaciones cortas - La ubicación era muy buena y buena zona para aparcar
- Annalena (10/5): -
- Daiva (7/5): -
- Manuel (6/5): - La piscina, ubicación La gente muy escandalosa, daban muchísimos golpes y portazos, la empresa no contestó a mis peticiones, tan solo pedí q nos pusieran en el baño 3 toallas éramos 3 adultos y todos los días sólo tuvimos 2 toallas, por lo menos se le contesta a los clientes.
Limpieza regular
Falta microondas por lo demás bien
- Rosario (8/5): - Muy buena ubicación Tuvimos un problema con el agua caliente de la ducha y vinieron a arreglarla pero el primer día nos tuvimos que duchar con agua fría
- David (8/5): -
- Valentina (8/5): Struttura pulita ed in ordine - Bella posizione e struttura pulita. Mancava il wi fi e sono molto rigidi con l’orario di check out
- Telmo (10/5): Prefeita - Tudo super limpo e com uma excelente localização!
- Ronald (6/5): Na een slechte start verder goed - Elke dag schone handdoeken en schoonmaken. Dat er 5 dagen overheen is gegaan voordat alle problemen waren opgelost. Bij binnenkomst geen airconditioning die na verstellen van de temperatuur begon te lekken. Na wat bellen zou deze op zondag gerepareerd zijn maar helaas nog steeds warme lucht. Na een bezoek aan het hotel op maandag was de airconditioning gerepareerd maar nu de bedbank nog. Deze is niet geschikt voor twee volwassenen zoals eerder was bevestigd. Het onderschuifbed is 190 en op de bank zelf waren latten van de bodem verdwenen en geen matras, ook dit gedeelte niet voor personen langer dan 1,85 geschikt. Uiteindelijk is er op dinsdag dan een extra bed neergezet. Daarna een goed verblijf gehad.
- Claudia (10/5): - Posizione bellissima con view su tutta la città. Il centro è facilmente raggiungibile a piedi. Servizi inclusi e pulizia della camera impeccabile. Consegna delle chiavi rapida ed efficiente. Consigliatissimo Un altro dipendente, durante la consegna delle chiavi, ha detto al suo collega “italians dumb” mentre ero lì per il ritiro. Spero di aver capito male :)
- Hindlise (10/5): bon séjour calme et bien placé pour l'accès a la vieille ville et a la plage et piscine sur site - le rez de jardin avec accès direct du studio et le confort de l'équipement un peu de difficulté a se garer en voiture
- Joao Carlos (7/5): - Gostei da vista sobre o centro de Albufeira e da proximidade ao centro Não ter wifi
- Ciaran (9/5): Spacious clean well equipped apartment in a great location - Spacious apartment in a good location near the old town and beach. Well equipped kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Room cleaning service every day. Complex quiet. Great pool Nothing much - minor inconvenience having to pick up keys from another hotel (15 min walk after a day of traveling). No lift re. getting bags upstairs.
- Carlos (10/5): -
- Marco (8/5): - Locatie goed, uitzicht goed. rustig gebouw. GEEN wifi? Dat dat nog mogelijk was in 2025. Zelfs niet tegen betaling. Gewoon geen, niets.
- Annette (6/5): - Clean, spacious. comfortable beds.
Serviced daily. No snack bar , bar or reception.
Felt very sorry for a dog who was consistently barking in one of the apartments.
- Romain (10/5): Super appartement - L’emplacement et la propreté Rien
- Miguel (9/5): -
- IOANNIS (10/5): -
- Manting (10/5): We had a nice time here with little difficulties. - The view from our balcony was fantastic. We could overlook the city and the beach.
The swimming pool was quite clean and quiet. Our apartment was spacious with everything you need.
- Kedia (8/5): -
- Isabelle (8/5): Bien! - L'emplacement
La piscine
La superficie de l'appartement
La bouteille offerte pour mon anniversaire 👍😊 L'absence de plateau de bienvenue ou au moins des dosettes de cafe et du thé pour le petit-déjeuner
Le côté froid de l'appartement : peu de meubles, décoration presque inexistante
Un distributeur de gel douche qui fonctionnait très mal
- Morgane 84 (7/5): - L'emplacement est top, c'est le point fort de cette appartement hotel. - Fuite des WC dans salle de bain, du coup , odeur dégoût.
- la propreté, peu mieux faire.
- aucun personnel sur place.
- récupérer les.clefs à 15min à pied dans un autre hôtel !
- Kwansu (1/5): Deeply Disappointed and Concerned for Guest Safety – Host Must Take Responsibility - Nope. Our experience at this property was not just disappointing — it was deeply concerning.
First, the main gate key provided did not open the gate, forcing us to repeatedly walk back and forth to the distant check-in location under stressful circumstances. What’s worse is that this issue had already been mentioned in previous reviews from others, yet nothing has been done. This shows a clear and unacceptable lack of responsibility from the host.
Second, and far more alarming, one night we experienced a drunken intruder violently kicking our door, shouting in a heavily intoxicated state. I immediately contacted the property manager, requesting police involvement and urgent action. The response? “There’s nothing we can do until morning.” Though the police were eventually contacted, no effective measures were taken during the actual emergency.
Left on our own, my family had to prepare to physically defend ourselves in case the door broke — we literally armed ourselves, not knowing what would happen next. Is this the kind of situation any guest should ever be put in?
Fortunately, the intruder disappeared after several hours — possibly due to foot injury — but the fear and trauma remained to my family members. Regardless of any later apologies or service recovery attempts, this breach of basic safety is inexcusable.
I sincerely hope the host takes immediate, concrete action to ensure no other guests are ever subjected to such negligence again. Until then, I cannot recommend this property to anyone, especially families.
- Freddie (8/5): -
- Leighanne (10/5): Perfect clean ideal - The property was huge and very clean, equipped with all need for our family break, it even had an iron and hairdryer that weren’t advertised .
We had 2 apartments for both families and they put us next door to each other, which we appreciated. We had our towels changed everyday as well as beds made and a little clean! This was such a great service!
The pool was great too not too busy, which we loved and a stunning view.
It was only a short walk into the town and beach. The Location is great.
Price is fair. No WiFi - but phone signal is great. However it’s a nice break to get teenagers away from screens
Thank you for our stay, we wouldn’t hesitate to come back. . Nothing
- Sherif Tarek Ali Erfan (8/5): - Flat is clean. Fully equipped with a full kitchen, waching machine, iron and ironing board. AC. Facilities at the original hotel was good and available for use. Very short drive to the original hotel. Checkout process wasn't clear, I thought I could just drop the keys in the box outside my building, but my box was full of strange papers. I had to take the keys to the original hotel, which again was close so was just a mild inconvenience. Would also appreciate it if there was any washing liquid or powder available.
- Dominique (9/5): - Sécuritaire, beau quartier très proche de la plage, belle piscine. Il manquait quelque essentiel de cuisine.
- thorsten (7/5): überteuerter Aufenthalt - nähe zum Meer Appartment war im keller, Licht fehlt (kleine Lichter-Nachttischlampen, Stehlampen fehlen)
Sehr laut, war im Keller das Apartment, alles was drüber war als wenn Möbelrücken und laute Schritte schon morgens ab 06 Uhr bis spät in die Nacht, alles sehr hellhörig, Überteuert!!!
- Vicki (6/5): A nice apartment, small and cozy, but comfortable with adequate access to the beach - Having a pool right outside, our deck was wonderful, but we did have to share it with the other apartments. There was someone of a bait and switch on free Wi-Fi – it is only free Wi-Fi if you are at the booking hotel, not the actual offsite place. Likewise, the beach was 1000 feet away, but that was as the crow would fly not the five minute walk down and around on the sidewalks.
- Jacqueline (6/5): - So near the old town, 10 mins walk, lovely spacious apartment Very little facilities in terms of pools etc at this space.
- Kati (5/5): Location was the best thing - Location was good It was a very noisy place, with British and Portuguese guests making lot of noise at night.
The bed was too hard. Picking up the keys from a different location was inconvenient.
The apartment lacked sufficient kitchen utensils.”
- Sophie (9/5): - Très bonne situation un peu éloigné du bruit, appartement grand lumineux avec balcon Le portail d'entrée avait été forcé.. très difficile à chaque fois de rentrer.. l'arrivée tardive était compliquée en restant 1h devant le portail..
- Eoghan (8/5): -
- Mariangeles (5/5): -
- Tanja (7/5): - la posizione, la possibilità di parcheggio là vicino, la grandezza dall'appartamento La cassaforte era rotta, pulizia non ottima specie nella cucina, mancanza di zanzariera i primi giorni ero sommersa da moscerini sia fuori sia dentro l'appartamento.
Serratura del cancello non funziona benissimo, sarebbe da cambiare.
- Mateusz (10/5): - Perfect location nice big apartments absolutely recommend
- Karen (9/5): A hidden gem! - Great location, rooms really big with lots of space The gate is a bit difficult to master
- Tamara (5/5): - Ubicación del apartamento Hay que recoger la llave en otro sitio que no es el apartamento te hace dar un rodeo con el coche, urbanización vieja, no está cuidada, hay muchos mosquitos, el aire acondicionado no funciona, la ducha salia el agua por el grifo en vez de por la alcachofa de arriba, en la cocina no hay prácticamente nada ni mistol si quiera para fregar, apartamento muy grande pero no hace falta tanto espacio debería de estar más cuidado, las fotos no se corresponden para como es realmente
- Ivan (10/5): -
- Freddi (10/5): - Appartement RDC avec accès à la piscine.
Restaurant à proximité.
- Tom (7/5): - Great apartment with all you need. Lovely garden and pool area with a great view. Cleaned and new towels every day. Super location for old town with not too much of a hill to climb Security gate didn't work until last day. Hall lights were broke for first 4 days so was hard to get key in door . A lot of hammering and drill most mornings from 8am. Getting key from different location was a nuisance as we were charged 18 euros for a 5 euro journey .
