An excellent choice for enjoying all that Albufeira has to offer. Hotel Sol e Mar is located right on the beach and features with two restaurants, indoor pool and free WiFi throughout.

Each en suite guest room has a private balcony with excellent sea view, satellite TV and refrigerator. Breakfast is included in the rates. Sol e Mar offers onsite car rental, and free public parking is available within 400 metres away.

Great value for money.

This adults-only hotel (no children under 13) is less than a 5-minute walk from the beach Praia dos Bicos and within walking distance of many bars and restaurants, as well as CONNECTION gay bar.

Spacious, air-conditioned guest rooms feature comfortable beds, modern bathrooms, free WiFi and a balcony. Most superior and deluxe rooms have sea views. Free onsite car parking is available.

Vilamoura Garden Hotel is located in the heart of the Algarve. It's located close to the beaches - just a 12 minute walk. The Vilamoura is a stylish choice for gay travelers. It's surrounded by some of the best golf courses in Europe. The Algarve is an ideal destination to unwind.

There are romantic options if you're travelling as a couple and it's very welcoming to gay travelers.

Located just a 1-minute walk from Praia dos Pescadores beach, the adults-only Rocamar Exclusive Hotel offers a swimming pool, a restaurant with sea views, gym and spa.

All guest rooms have air conditioning, satellite TV, free WiFi, private balcony, some with a sea view. The hotel has a 24-hour reception, and free public parking is available.

The Rocamar is a great option for exploring the Albufeira town centre, with many local restaurants and bars within walking distances away. The new gay bar CONNECTION is just 10 minutes' drive away.

If you want to stay in or near Portimão, then we recommend Hotel da Rocha. This great-value hotel sits right on Praia da Rocha Beach, close to Portimão marina along with a wide range of restaurants.

Modern grooms and suites have free WiFi, flat screen cable TV, air conditioning, comfortable beds. Some rooms offer view of the beach. The hotel has its its own bar, restaurant and an outdoor swimming pool.

Nightlife-wise, the hotel is within easy access of the bars and entertainment in town. The Loft gay nightclub is just about 10 minutes' away by taxi.

The Conrad is, in our opinion, one of the best luxury hotels in the Algarve. Facilities include two swimming pools (one reserved for adults), a fabulous spa, tennis courts and two great restaurants.

Guest rooms are very chic, large and luxurious. Rooms facing towards the pool offer nicer views as trees mean there is not much to see on either side of the hotel.

Located about a mile from the beach, the Conrad provides free shuttle service for guests to and from Maria's Restaurant & Beach Club at Dunas Douradas, where sun beds and shades are available for guests (for a fee). Maria's restaurant is actually very good - advance reservations essential during peak season - just ask at the hotel.

There are shops and a mini-market just a couple of minutes' walk from the Conrad and a host of great restaurants nearby, some within walking distance.

Excellent-value apartment-style rooms in Vale do Lobo (18 km from Albufeira). The beachfront Dunas Douradas Beach Club offers a private beach, 3 swimming pools, well-equipped gym, sauna and spa.

Each large apartment features flat screen cable TV, coffee maker, free WiFi, terrace with sea views. There's a restaurant & bar onsite; breakfast is available upon request.

Dunas do Alvor offers gay-popular apartments. It's a 10-minute walk from Alvor Village. The property comes with a pool, garden and tennis court. Each apartment is equipped with a kitchenette, balcony and living room along with a flat-screen TV

There are restaurants within a two-minute drive from the property. This part of the Algarve is known for excellent fish dishes.

If you're looking for some nightlife you can head into Alvor and explore the bars.
