Fabulous hotel
"This hotel is amazing. Their main assets are their staff, especially the reception team, who are the most approachable, helpful people we’ve ever experienced in a hotel. We had a problem with golf clubs being delivered and they went out of their way to help us. We spent three wonderful weeks at this hotel and would definitely return. The apartment was very comfortable with everything you needed. Absolutely spotless and cleaned every day to a high standard. In fact the whole hotel was like that. Thank you all for a wonderful break."

Top quality 4* hotel for a week of winter warmth
"Booked through Jet2Holidays a week or so prior to get an absolute bargain self-catering week in Albufeira, choosing Vila Petra as the best looking option of the hotels that they offered. We certainly weren't disappointed with our choice, as from the moment one arrives this hotel is highly impressive, & I'd say up there as probably the best of the winter sun break type hotels in which we've stayed over the years.

Staff are extremely polite, friendly & helpful. The level of cleanliness & maintenance of buildings, facilities & grounds is very high. Quality of guest facilities such as pools, gym, restaurants & bars is excellent. Our studio apartment (251) was roomy, very clean, had a cracking shower, & was south facing - getting the sun all day - with a view over the pool. Recommend the 'pool view' rooms in the separate block for this.

Whilst the hotel is away from the seafront, 15 minutes walk down to the nearest beach, & 45 minutes walk to the old town, this meant that it was fairly quiet, whilst if wanting a bit more life, 'The Strip' is only 5 minutes walk away. We were though surprised at just how many businesses - maybe 60-70% or so - were closed, so if looking for a lot of life & choice in the way of restaurants, bars etc, then don't go in January. There was enough choice for us though for the week.

So overall, it's a definite big YES for us in terms of a recommendation for Vila Petra. Thanks to all the staff, who definitely added to our experience & enjoyment."

Great long weekend
"Brillaint Hotel, staff were all lovely and the Indoor pool was brilliant. We had room service for 2 nights of our stay and it was delicious, we had nuggets, chips, pizza , roast chicken, salad. It was a large portion and very tasty . Will definitely visit again when the outdoor pools abit warmer. Only thing that abit disappointing is the TV was small and it had about 3 English channels. but wouldn't need that in the summertime as much ."

Best hotel in Portugal
"This might be one of the most spotless hotels we’ve visited! Everything is done with love and you can feel in the environment.
We would like to congratulate the person who runs the hotel.
For the first time we haven’t found anything to complain about!
The place is lovely and the staff is out of this world. Mamma Mia was fun and Burlesque very professional. Entertainment everyday and night, and it was great!
We definitely recommend this hotel!"

Excellent
"Fantastic cleanliness, very welcoming and very friendly staff."

"Just returned from a 10 night stay. 5 stars.
Clean rooms, friendly staff and great food. No negatives at all, would definitely go again. Special mention to Fabio and Maycon for great service and always having a smile on their faces.
No rush for sun beds as strict no reserving policy which was really good and upheld by the pool attendants."

"Great location, large and comfortable apartments, green spaces and good swimming pools. The staff is exceptional."

"We have just returned from his hotel and we had a fantastic holiday. I would highly recommend for anyone with a young family, as a group of eight the facilities were outstanding.
The service was very good and the staff very friendly. The self catering facilities were very good and the quality of the food in the restaurant was excellent. We would definitely return!"

"It is impossible to go to Vila Petra and remain indifferent. Yesterday was the first time I had dinner at this aparthotel and I couldn't have chosen better. Service, entertainment, food, decoration, all five stars."

"I liked everything. Very spacious and clean room. The location is fantastic: close to everything and, at the same time, away from the hustle and bustle."
