4-star hillside resort in Albufeira with lagoon-style pool overlooking the Atlantic

Pool & Recreation

Cerro Mar Garden & Cerro Mar Atlântico offer four outdoor swimming pools spread across the complex. A lagoon-style pool sits on a terrace with direct views of the Atlantic Ocean. Guests can also use the indoor pool in the Cerro Mar Garden building, which requires a swim cap (available at reception).

Accommodations

All apartments come with a balcony and a functional kitchen or kitchenette, including a refrigerator, hob, and utensils. The one-bedroom and two-bedroom units offer separate living areas, with daily housekeeping and linen changes provided. Some apartments include a washing machine and dishwasher, noted in guest reviews as a convenience for longer stays.

A complimentary shuttle service runs four times daily (10:00, 12:00, 14:00, 16:00) to the old town for guests who prefer not to use the steps. Aldi and Lidl supermarkets are a 10-minute walk from the hotel for self-catering supplies.

The spa and wellness centre in Cerro Mar Garden includes a Jacuzzi, sauna, Turkish bath, and steam room. Guests have access to a panoramic gym with cardio equipment and floor-to-ceiling windows. Various massage and wellness treatments are available for an additional fee, with a dedicated spa lounge and relaxation area.

Dining & Entertainment

Monte Verde Restaurant serves buffet meals alongside regional and international dishes in the main building. Alfarrobeira Bar offers a relaxed setting for drinks, with live music and themed dinner nights held on select evenings. A snack bar at the main pool area provides food and cocktails, with an outdoor terrace overlooking the ocean.

multiple pools well-equipped kitchen helpful staff
The hotel had multiple swimming pools which i enjoyed! The kitchen in my apartment had everything i needed. The staff was genuinely helpful, which i really appreciated. The restaurant food was delicious, and the service team was attentive. The indoor spa facilities and the outdoor pool and snack area were fantastic. I spent hours there!

spacious apartment friendly staff tired block old decor
The apartment was spacious. It was well equipped. The hotel location is great. It is a short walk into the main town. The staff were friendly. The hotel bar prices were reasonable. They offer a 'cocktail of the day' for 6 euro. It was a decent size!!!
The apartment block feels a bit abandoned. It is across the road from the main building. The block is tired. Apartments have decor and fittings from around 1960. Dark wood and beige were predominant.
