Wonderfull resort for a family holiday

This is a wonderful, large resort for a holiday with a small child. A fabulous heated indoor pool, and lots of things to do. Everything is in great condition, clean and safe. Housekeeping did a magnificent job on keeping our apartment tidy.

Pine Cliffs is a beautiful property with excellent dining — every restaurant we visited delivered on food, service, and ambiance. Truly a highlight of the stay. That said, our overall experience was mixed. Check-in felt hectic and wasn’t especially accommodating for traveling with a small child, which set a challenging tone at the start. We stayed in the residences, and personally, I wouldn’t choose that option again. They felt far from the main amenities, inconvenient to access, and not as premium as expected. The indoor pool was a big plus and clearly popular, especially during an off-season stay. It made a difference for families needing an easy activity. This may have been influenced by traveling off-season, but when we return to this area, I’d likely choose a different property. A lovely resort in many ways, just not the right fit for us this time.

Nice but expensive

Super site and large safe complex - amazing beach and high quality restaurants onsite - it is a very quiet place despite the size and makes a perfect holiday base on the downside the drinks, food and facilities are vastly over priced. We have been.few times but this year it was noticeable how few guests where actually buying anything poolside for example.

We stayed in a three bedroom residence. It was spacious, traditionally decorated and well appointed with a full kitchen and washing machine & tumble dryer. The grounds are beautifully looked after with lots of grass for kids to play on. There are plenty of beds and umbrellas around the pools with pool towels stations in multiple areas. The beach restaurant has a fantastic view. All food is excellent but as expected expensive. Drinks are also expensive. There is a little mini market at the Residences but instead of using this i recommend you walk to the supermarket opposite the entrance which is well stocked. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Pine Cliffs and will be back again.

Pine Cliffs - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely wonderful stay at Pine Cliffs. I travel a lot with work and stay in many hotels. Hands down, Pine Cliffs is one of the best resorts I’ve stayed in. The most amazing and helpful staff that make the whole family feel welcome. Their focus on the children is incredible, with our son being welcomed by name, high fives and a hug each morning at breakfast. The resort offers something for everyone in the family. Plenty of entertainment for Children, quiet areas for Mum and Dad. Great food, stunning views and a brilliant shuttle service to make getting around with a group so much easier. We will be back for sure!

Hotel stay

We had a two bedroom suite at the Residences. Hotel is beautiful but it is very spread out. To go to beach and main hotel building you need to take a shuttle which you may need to wait for 15-20 minutes. For a 5 star resort service was a bit spotty. We had a mishap at breakfast- was told we can do a la cart instead of buffet but ended up waiting for 1 hour to get eggs which was ridiculous. This hotel is also outside of Albufeira so location is not super convenient - you have to drive to town.

Fantastic resort but

Fantastic resort but they charge excessively every. Example, we don,t mind paying to use the facilities but 40 euros for 1 hour on the tennis court toooo much I would expect to pay for the driving range as it costs to maintain but to charge to use the clubs as well ridicules 40 euros for buffet dinner tooo much 10 euros per day for wifi ridicules But if you can eat out of the resort for half the price Relax by the pool and use the safe beach for free Apart from the above we absolutely loved the resort and staff
