Conrad Algarve

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.
