Algarve Sao Rafael Beach Hotels

"Great hotel … Only downer was you don’t get Marriott points when you book on Expedia "

"Excellent breakfast "

"We recently stayed at this resort- the room was beautiful and very spacious. Halal options are available upon request. Very friendly staff and managment at this property."

"Fantastic area, quite, safe. "

"Lovely stay in a lovely hotel. Staff couldn’t have been friendlier and more helpful. Breakfast was plentiful, lots of choice, tasty and mini Portuguese tarts to die for. In a great location, everything on your doorstep, would definitely go back 😍"

"Good location hotel"

"Incredible vacation home in a superb Algarve location. We loved the home — especially the large pool. The home had everything we needed and the host (Tracey) was super responsive to our questions during our stay. The home is perfectly located within a short walk to the beach and incredible cliff top walks that take you to other beaches. There are also some wonderful restaurants all within a short walk of the property. With our rental car we were able to get to some other Algarve locations (Silves, Largos and the Slide and Splash waterpark all within 30-60 minutes drive). Would highly recommend this property and location to others considering a trip to the Algarve. Our family made some wonderful memories this week. We hope to return next year!"

"Great stay close to beach."

"We just checked out today (7/24/25) from our honeymoon. I see what people say online about the hotel being outdated. That being said, it is kept very clean including the pools, restaurant and rooms. The staff are outstanding and the location is quiet in a beautiful neighborhood that is conveniently close to the marina as well as a few beaches. We walked to 4-5 of them and saw (and went) to a lot of restaurants that are close by. Another good thing is that it is truly adult only with no screaming kids. I love kids but sometimes you just want to be in a quiet location. We would definitely stay here again."
