Great location and facilities
Adriana, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

We really enjoyed our stay as a couple . The outdoor pool I feel needs some repairs on the tiles as when you were in the pool you could feel broken tiles underneath your feet. We were very happy with the food and there was a good choice . We would come back again.

Pequeno almoço com suco artificial de laranja

Tudo muito bom. Apenas uma ressalva: porquê, no café da amanhã, o suco de laranja era artificial (muito ruim mesmo) numa cidade que exporta laranjas?(albufeira).

Average stay

We had an adequate stay at this hotel. It is definitely not luxurious and I wouldn't class it 5 stars. A low 4 stars at best, but as long as you don't expect luxury staying there, it's fine. Reasons for this review: The hotel is clearly quite dated and the rooms aren't in 100% condition. EG our apartment had quite a bit of mould in the corner of the living room and bedroom walls. The curtains were very dated and the couch was very, very worn. We did all inclusive, which gives you access to all the food across the properties in Algarve. The main hotel restaurant had an ok selection but not amazing. It was pretty clear that the staff at the restaurant did their best but they were not staffed adequately because every meal time the tables were not adequately re-set in a timely manner after diners left. Likewise the food was not replenished fast enough and often many dishes were missing for a long time before being replenished. We visited a number of the different restaurants and only the aqua restaurant had a kids menu, which made it challenging with kids as not all the staff were very accommodating about making adaptations for the kids. The alcohol selection for all inclusive wasn't great. Very basic and dated cocktails and the quality of the beer and wine honestly was not good. The pool entertainment was pretty basic. Overall this place was ok but as you can see from above it certainly wasn't luxurious.
Dikla, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice hotel. Clean, spacious and also very quiet, which was good. The location was also good - walk distance to beach, old town and the stripe. The meal (breakfast and dinner) was average. One thing not very happy was for arrange a taxi to Faro airport - was told by the front desk staff that they could arrange taxi with fixed price of 50euro but actually the driver charged by meter for 56euro saying never be fixed

The Hotel staff was very accomodating Their Shampoo dispenser was poor. The TV channels were very limited and several channels didn't work. There was no oven, but had a microwave. There is washing machine which was very nice. There was a lot of entertainment around the pool. Good restaurants walking distance.

Christophe, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A nice stay in this hotel, which was a good base to explore Albufeira and around. The property is a little bit tired, but the rooms were spacious, the beds were comfortable, the spa was functional (though closing at 6pm is a bit early) and the staff were friendly, particularly Cristiano at reception who gave us excellent local recommendations throughout our stay and was always a friendly face.
Fred, 3-night trip

Hotel and rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.We went all inclusive and the food was good with plenty of choice. The staff were very friendly especially Andreia and Miguel. We would definately stay there again in the future if holidaying in Albufeira

A great week in the Forte do Vale hotel. Loved the hotel and facilities, a great variety of food options (and plenty of veggie options). Good location for the beach, local park and really enjoyed being able to use the sister hotel's facilities as well. Would recommend.

Nice hotel, very spacious rooms. Went out of season so just 1 restaurant in hotel which was nice, other restaurants advertised were elsewhere in town. We tried the Chinese which we'd suggest you avoid.

Really nice hotel in a quiet location, walkable to the Old Town, the beach and the Strip. Room was spacious, bed was comfortable, air-conditioning was welcome, shower was decent. Restaurant had a good range of dining options and all the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Loved the pool with its lunchtime barbecue and bar. We will return again next year!

Fin de semana de relax

El spa y piscina muy bien. La habitación no estaba limpia, el sofá hundido, el cuarto de baño no tiene ni un perchero y se sale el agua cuando te duchas. Hay alfombras en la habitación, eso nos ha dado mucho asco porque no estaban limpias. Relación calidad precio pésima, como mucho es un 3 estrellas no 5.daba asquito la falta de limpieza.Cobran 5 euros el alquiler de toalla de piscina que no devuelven. Nos dejaron salir 1hora más tarde sin cargo alguno y nos cambiaron a un apartamento porque había sitio sin cargo extra. Las jambas de las puertas abiertas de la fregona. Personal muy agradable. Algunas luces no funcuonaban

Overall ok

Stay was good overall, food was standard, poolside was good. The Barman in the poolside bar was brilliant, was so creative with the drinks and was always making new concoctions for us to try which were delicious! Staff were all really friendly. Entertainment was poor except the quiz night was good. Hotel was ok for the 3 nights we stayed.
Sarah, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We really liked this Hotel. Close to walk to the beach and plenty of eateries. All inclusive options are ok, but we went for eating out instead, with the occasional meal in the hotel. The only down side is the sofa bed was terrible to sleep on; you could feel every spring. But would definately return.
