On arrival was told they were overbooked and we would be moved to another hotel, apparently this happens quite often.



We went with friends who didn’t have to move so they managed to fit us in somehow! More like a 3* Hotel.... read more

Hotel was absolutely fantastic. We went on an allocation on arrival holiday which I was a bit worried about but thankfully ended up at the 4* Brisa Sol Hotel.



The hotel is truly fantastic, clean and beautifully laid out. read more

The Brisa Sol was in a very good location, it’s situated between the old and the new town so you have the best of both worlds.



It’s also right next door to a large supermarket which is very handy and across the road there... read more

We were very disappointed with this hotel. The 1st room we were given, overlooked a car park and side of a large supermarket and had steps to the apartment and steps to the balcony. This did not suit me as I have arthritis.

The time of year we chose was poor on our part, the weather let us down most days. But the few days the sun was out, it was beautiful. The bars clubs were lively, the restaurants were fantastic.

My wife and I went to the Brisa Sol on 19th October for two weeks, where we were in a studio.



The apartment was kept very clean and there were fresh towels and dish towels every day, and the maids were very friendly.

This year we went back to Portugal and to the Brisa Sol for the second time. Portugal is a beautiful country and I understand why stars like Cliff Richard have homes there. Albufeira is a short scenic drive from the airport.
