    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    The Vila Petra Hotel Apartments offers up two restaurants, a well-stocked pool area and a central location that’s just minutes from the action.

    This hotel is just off Albufeira’s main strip, close enough for you to be on the doorstep of all the action, but far enough away that things are still peaceful. The beach is a 20-minute walk away, or you can book a ride on the hotel's shuttle bus.

    The Vila Petra Hotel Apartments is surrounded by greenery. Lofty palms are dotted in between pathways, and plants wrap around balconies in an indoor garden. Inside, all the rooms come with a kitchenette, which has everything you need to cook your own meals.

    Fabulous holiday stay
    29 Nov , 2019 U9284GPdebbiec
    We just came back from a long stay, 3 weeks, and thoroughly enjoyed “living” at Vila Petra. The hotel is very clean, the staff are wonderful, very friendly, helpful. Our housekeeper, Sirlene, was fabulous. We were in room 122 which is the best suite to have if you want to sit out on your very large deck, enjoying the sun. The kitchen is equipped with the essentials for a long stay. We brought a few items from home like coffee and filters, tea, hot chocolate, salt and pepper, small bottles of condiments, etc. There is a great grocery store 15 minutes from the hotel where you can get everything. The wine is VERY inexpensive and very good. Our favourite white wine was Sossega. The hotel is located on a very quiet street, just minutes from the hustle and bustle of “the strip”. Even in the winter season, there are plenty of restaurants and shops open. Not all of them but enough to get a taste of Portugal. The best restaurant to go to is a 3 minute walk from vila Petra. It is Jarmin Rustico. OMG!!!!! The food was absolutely incredible, especially their stuffed scallops. If you are lucky to be there when the co-owner, Ines, sings for you, then your trip will be worthwhile. She has the voice of an angel, had all of us in tears, she was so mesmerizing. We went on several excursions but our favourite was the West Algarve tour. You also MUST do a tour of the cork factory. You will have a new appreciation for a wine cork!!!! Overall, Vila Petra is the place to stay when visiting the Algarve!! We would stay here again.

    Apartments are nice and clean,comes with a sofa, small dining room table and a kitchen with most appliances minus a washing machine. Smokers will be happy as there is a balcony/terrace. 2 negatives are it’s a bit of a walk to the rooms and beds are not that comfortable. Lovely live entertainment in the evening in a really nice bar on the premises with really good prices for drinks and food. Nice gym and a very large pool also available.
    Great hotel
    17 Nov , 2019 LeaCl1990, 187069
    I’ve stayed at Vila Petra 3 times, and it never disappoints. The first 2 times we were in the building at the side, and this time round we were in the main building which was much newer and nicer. We never had any complaints about the other building, but there’s definitely a difference in the rooms! The staff are really professional and polite, the hotel is clean and the location is great - 5 minute walk to the new town and not too far from the old town. We usually got a taxi which cost around €8. The bar and restaurant at the hotel is perfect during the day for quick food and a drink, and the grounds around the hotel are well looked after. The prices have always been reasonable. When we come back to Portugal we’ll definitely be staying here again.
    Brilliant hotel

    Absolutely lovely hotel stayed from 7th Oct for 10 days wish it was longer the apartments were big, fully equipped kitchen even had washing up liquid and tea towels cleaners came in every day and as for the rest of the staff they were brilliant couldn't fault anyone working there. The apartments are really close to the strip but far enough not to hear any late night noise. Food was good always plenty to choose from we stayed half board.
    5 day break

    What a smashing hotel, great location as only a 5 minute stroll to the strip, the hotel is spotlessly clean, wherever you go whether it be morning noon or night, plenty of sun beds to go round & refreshing to see no towels on them at the crack of dawn 👍stayed B&B & that was superb, hopefully we will be back soon
