The Sao Rafael Hotel is a high quality property, which combines an excellent location with one of the most attractive and generous environments within Algarve , the S?o Rafael beach, in Albufeira. Although the hotel is set in beautiful and peaceful surroundings, the nightlife of Albufeira is only a ten minute taxi ride, so guests here can enjoy the best of both worlds.
Elegance and quality are the main characteristics of this hotel, in addition to its ocean views, modern furnishings, panoramic elevators and vast Mediterranean gardens.
Each of the rooms in this five star hotel are spacious and filled with natural light, the rooms are also equipped with balconies, air conditioning and satellite TV.
On summer days guests can sunbathe on the outdoor terraces and lawns and refresh themselves in the circular turquoise swimming pool. The hotel's own spa offers Turkish bath, sauna, hot tub and massage treatments to rejuvenate body and mind.
More active guests can work out in the gym and then cool off in the indoor pool, housed in a mosaic room with oversized windows offering gorgeous garden views. In the evenings guests can order up room service, or unwind in the bar with a nightcap before retiring to bed.
