Cerro marina in Albufeira.
Perched on a hillside overlooking the Algarve coastline, Cerro Marina commands views across the Atlantic and the town of Albufeira below.
This hotel venue rises from elevated terrain, offering dramatic sightlines and natural amphitheater-like grounds for ceremonies.
The setting delivers both Mediterranean light and proximity to golden-sand beaches just minutes away.
Small friendly hotel up a steep hill on the outskirts of Albufiera. It is the quietest, most peaceful hotel we have stayed in. The whole place, inside and out, is spotlessly clean. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious, we didn't have an evening meal. There is nothing to do nearby, unless you walk into Albufiera, about 15 minutes walk away, but if you're looking for a quiet relaxing holiday, this is a gem.
