from 51 reviews Write review

In the south of Portugal (the Algarve), close to the coast, you will find campsite Albufeira. This is a friendly family campsite with many hibernators during low season. The terrain slopes slightly but has flat pitches. The atmosphere is convivial and hospitable and there is a nice balance between activities and peace and quiet. The campsite is attractively located amidst a hilly landscape with interesting villages.

A pleasant, green campsite

On your way to the campsite you see a spacious field with beautiful swimming pools in the centre. You may choose one of the various (shaded and sunny) pitches. Albufeira is a campsite where you will soon feel at home. There is little demarcation between the pitches, but there are a large number of trees and plants. You camp on a hard, flat surface. In addition to camping pitches, there are rental mobile homes and bungalows.

Swimming and sunbathing

The swimming pools are located in full sun. From here you have a splendid view of the area. There is a toddler pool and and there are sufficient loungers around the pools. You can order a snack or a drink from the nearby restaurant. The beach is a few km down the road.

Regional products and sanitary facilities

The campsite has a good and affordable restaurant with a small and an extensive menu. There is a supermarket with a reasonably large selection and a choice of fresh food. You will also find good regional products here. There is a recreation hall for shows and parties. The sanitary facilities are spacious and clean and are divided over a number of blocks. There are special facilities for babies, children and disabled persons.

Such an interesting site, without having the boundaries of where to park, kinda of through us off a bit lol. The facilities are very clean, the shop has the basics of everything you need if you haven\'t hit a big shop. The restaurant prices are very good although if you weren\'t sure what time to get food it could be lukewarm, however the chocolate desert to die for. The bus outside for Albuferia is great for days out to old town and the strip

My wife and I had a lovely time, the weather was fine, the neighbours were quiet even though it was a really big campsite but really climatic.
We spent a nice time, the weather was great, the neighbours were quiet even though it was a big campsite but really atmospheric, we went to the beach and on trips every other day, the staff were friendly, the shop was ok, the pool was large and you could swim without being crowded, the toilets were cleaned daily, the area was guarded and it was our third stay in Portugal.

We send our best regards to Piotr and Malgorzata Piatek Poland

We intended staying for two nights in October but liked the site so much we stayed for five and only moved on when the weather broke. Friendly staff, clean facilities, good shop all better than expected. Great location with cycle path outside campsite.

Absolutely brilliant spot. Cleanliness, professionalism and friendliness throughout. One small hiccup, one of the staff at the pool bar was charging higher prices than the others. Not a big issue but no doubt this will be spotted in time, by way of a publicised priced list. But excellent spot and very good value overall and that did not mar the overall experience.

I have been here 3 times now and loved it each time. The campsite has everything you need, but is also just a short walk away from the centre of the town with its nightlife !
Lots of gorgeous beaches a few miles away to explore and relax on.
