Lovely location, peaceful as out of season.
Easy to walk down to bus or little shop or cafe/bar and even down to old town.
Could get a bus to church on Sunday opposite shop.
Or walk to dolphin roundabout for bus to bus terminal or into old town.
Lovely wee cats needing adopted

We went as a group of ten ladies for a hen party, and we’d read quite a few reviews that made us dread the reception we’d receive upon arrival but the staff couldn’t have been more friendly. We arrived earlier than anticipated so our rooms weren’t ready, but we were directed to a luggage storage room and advised that we could wait at the pool bar. They did take a £100 deposit from each of us but we got this back with absolutely no issues at the end of the holiday. I would go back here in a heartbeat, lovely clean spacious rooms, friendly staff, plenty of sunbeds around the pool and affordable (and strong) drinks. Food was also good prices and very tasty.

This is a lovely place. Contrary to some reviews, we found the staff so helpful and friendly. Nor were we asked for a security deposit!!
Apartments have all you need, including an iron, microwave and clothes horse for drying clothes. There are three pools, a paddling pool, and then a proper pool, neither of which are too deep, plus a heated indoor swimming pool, complete with jacuzzi. Heaven.
To walk to the old town is about 15 minutes downhill, but watch out as the pavements are really uneven and bumpy. No level paths anywhere.
We used Uber and Bolt to get around as so cheap. Good supermarket in Albufeira Terrace shopping centre.
But also the local supermarket at the end of the road to the apartment complex is well stocked, well run and very clean. The little cafe beside is also excellent value and delicious food.
All in all Pateo Apartments may be classed as three stars, but it punches above its weight.

Nice clean apartments, pools are great. You are at the top of hill for the square so around 15 minute walk.

Great place. Nobody asked for a deposit as stated in one of the reviews. Check in was fast and before 3pm as the flat was ready. We had a ground floor apartment. Lots of space inside, kitchen is fully equipped, including microwave, toaster, coffe maker, fridge and cooker with pans and pots. Everything you need to cook any meals. Dryer outside on the patio, extra blankets, towels, soap, bath wash and shower gel, hair dryer and bidet.
Cleaning service coming every 2 days. Indoor pool and jacuzzi were warm and clean. Small internal shop with goodies, free parking space. We picked self catering option but you may choose eating in. Great place, I would highly recommend, great value for money, lovely service. There was some work to improve exteriors and to make it nice for the summer.
