Albacora across from Tavira island was such a relaxing spot, the spacious pool area with big warmish pool, then the location with beautiful estuary on your doorstep and quick boat trip over to a stunning wide beach with beach bars and lidos. Very clean and well equipped room, excellent breakfast and friendly helpful staff. We wish we had stayed longer, truly! The town of Tavira is so lovely too. We were sad to go.

To give this hotel less than a 10 would be unworthy! We had an excellent one bedroom suite with 2 bathrooms; very spacious and with an amazing view of the marina and Ria Formosa. Within easy walking distance to the Mercado, centre, shops and restaurants, even for seniors like us. Very friendly staff. Only 20 minutes from Faro airport.

We picked Faro to minimise the journey time from the airport, even though it seemed from what we could see online that Faro was not the most popular Algarve town but in the end we liked Faro a lot and would happily go again. It has good easy train access to other parts of the coast and we explored both Eastwards and Westwards as it was our first trip to the Algarve. There are plenty of restaurants and some rather smart shops to explore. The Old town is interesting and we didn't manage to see it all. The marina is a great place to linger and take photos. We took the ferry to Faro beach through the shallow wetlands for just a few Euros. Next time we will learn how to use buses.

We stayed for 6 nights which was a night or two more than required. Tavira is an interesting town and we enjoyed a Fado performance in one of the beautiful churches. It has a wide choice of good eateries and trips are available to local attractions like the island. However, we were glad we took the option of taking the train to Faro for one day and to the crossingbto Spain on a small ferry on another day. Tavira is close to Spain.The ferry port in Portugal is an attractive town as is its couterpart onthe Spanish side.

Olhao is a welcoming laid back town this time a year. Its very well kept with interesting Cubist architecture. There are many great restaurants and coffee places in all price ranges. It feels genuinely Portugese. Surrounding islands are lovely and transport is easy and very affordable. The markets are also great to visit. The salinas are beautiful with lovely diverse flora and fauna.

Cabanas is generally low-key and low-rise.

Cabanas is generally low-key and low-rise. It's got lots of restaurants, some very good, and the waterfront boardwalk which extends the length of the main urban area is lined with restaurants, bars and some modest shops. Don't go for latenight carousing or nightclubs, but the area is very attractive in a gentle way. It's become much busier than it used to be, and there is still quite a lot of holiday accommodation under construction. There's a large but unobtrusive campsite tucked away a kilometer or so from the waterfront, seems to do good overwintering trade with northern EU sunbirds. Difficult to give specific recommendations for restaurants etc as tastes and chefs vary. I'd say it's best for older couples, those wanting to explore the many delights of the Eastern Algarve and the south-west tip of Spain (which is 20 minutes away over the suspension bridge at Castro Marim), families with younger children (probably not teenagers!)

We stayed in Faro overnight to catch an early morning flight. We went to the historical part of town and walked around. It was fine but rather unremarkable. However, there is a large shopping center in Faro with an Auchan Supermarket. This shopping center was fantastic, beautiful with nice water features and a large food center with relaxing outdoor seating.

Loved this place.

Loved this place. Working little town, accommodating to tourist but not yet over run or spoiled by it. Lots of picture postcard views but also evidence of real life happening on door step. Amazing selection of restaurants which were extremely reasonable for a traveler from UK. Local beach was great, and island trip very fun and great for a walk, or more expansive beach. Relaxed vibe to the whole place and charming. Very keen to return. Walking to beach, harbour, restaurants all within 5 mins, and train station ten mins ( although a Uber to faro was 12 euros ( 2025.) Couple of little playgrounds for kids, and river beach / sea was very calm and shelving. Would return with kids.

As a non driver it was good to have station, shop etc relatively close (20 min walk) Easy to get around on foot and by bicycle. Clean and friendly I shopped there but didn't eat out. The main draw for me was Cacela Velha and Fábrica being nearby (30-40 minute walk dependent on tide)

Need a car!

Need a car! Our main interest was the beach which is great so didn't really want to travel around. Vale de Lobo itself has no interest . A lot of building going on obviously for foreign investors. If you want to experience the real flavour of Portugal , this isn't the place. As a beach holiday with kids , that is fine. Food is repetitive and ordinary. People are friendly, ubers are cheap. The beach side restaurants have nice settings & views.
