Pine Cliffs Residence

We had a two night stay here and it was wonderful from start to finish. All the staff are very attentive at this property. The amenities are incredible - from the seven pools to the tennis courts to the kids club. I wish we could’ve stayed longer. It really is a fabulous property. The beds are super comfortable and the rooms are very spacious. There is a huge amount of sun loungers so it’s never a struggle to find one. The panoramic cliff views and the beach is also really nice. Would stay here again.

We had an amazing time at pine cliffs resort. We stayed for 5 nights and explored around the algarve. We ate at yakuza the first night and the food and service was exceptional. The spa was amazing ,we got a couples massage and were able to use the facilities like the herbal sauna,salt sauna ,steam room etc. The only issues we had was with the concierge services. We felt these were subpar for a 5 star resort ,we have stayed at many 5 star establishments and just didn’t feel the same effort as we normally receive. Also upon departure we asked for a trolly to be sent up to our room the reception desk told me they would let the bell man know. I walked down to put some lighter items in my vehicle and (2) bell men opened the doors for me. I thought it was odd but i am very patient. I ended up having to grab the trolly my self after waiting around 20 mins with no response. One of the younger bell men saw me and quickly assisted me, i asked if anyone had informed him he told me reception didn’t let him know. These two things were the only cons of pine cliffs. We will be back and hopefully they can sort out there reception concierge services.

I visited the Resort in 2017 and I loved it. This second time, in August 2025, felt like a disappointment. We reserved a 2-floor room in the Resort with our 1-year-old baby for 5 nights. The room was very poorly maintained: stains on all pieces of furniture, sticky remote controllers, holes in the tiled floor, black marks all over the walls. Despite immediately raising the matter with the staff - also showing them the pictures enclosed - it took 48 hours to be taken seriously. Multiple times I was promised to be provided updates on potential solutions and multiple times the staff forgot to contact me. For the last three nights, we were moved to a room in the Ocean Suites which is definitely newer. This was appreciated despite having to pack and unpack again. However there were works being performed on our floor, so this was frequently dirty and noisy. The worst part was when, at checkout, rather than being offered any discount to make up for the bad experience, I was asked for double payments for the last three nights - both for the room at Ocean Suites and the original one at the Resort!!!! All in all, the village is great, the restaurants are nice, all the services offered are great (albeit everything comes with an additional price, like tennis courts, which is unheard of in 5* hotels), and this is an amazing place for families. I will potentially come back eventually. But you need to be aware that some rooms are very poorly maintained and that the staff does not live up to the expectations of a Luxury Collection, >600€ per night hotel.

Omg, what a sensational hotel! Best sunset at the champagne or gin bar. Great fish dinner. Marvelously helpful staff. Magnificent two floor suite room, sadly we got a parking view but

We, as a family of four, recently stayed at Pine Cliffs Hotel in Albufeira and had the most wonderful experience imaginable! The resort is set atop spectacular ochre-red cliffs with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and beautifully manicured gardens. The blend of modern luxury and authentic Portuguese charm created a relaxing and special atmosphere for the entire family. Our accommodation was perfect—spacious, elegantly decorated, and spotlessly clean, with a sun-soaked terrace that made every morning feel magical. The resort’s amenities kept us all happy: the Serenity Spa was a tranquil oasis, while our children were thrilled with the Porto Pirata adventure village, mini-golf, and all the family-friendly activities on offer. Dining was a true highlight, with so many incredible restaurants to choose from. Every meal, from the fresh seafood at Maré to delicious burgers at Burgler and authentic Italian at Portofino, was a treat for both adults and kids alike. Special themed nights, seasonal activities, and live music added to the fun, keeping our days and evenings vibrant and memorable. The warm hospitality made all the difference—every member of staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and cared for. We also enjoyed the stunning beach, inviting pools, and beautiful nature all around us. If you’re seeking a luxurious, family-friendly getaway where every detail is thoughtfully taken care of, Pine Cliffs Resort is the ultimate destination. We created memories here that will last a lifetime and can’t wait to return!
