- 3HB Golden Beach

This hotel is just 100 m from the Praia da Oura Beach in Albufeira, one of the best beaches in the Algarve, and within walking distance of the nightlife area, restaurants, shops and supermarkets. Links to the public transport network are in the immediate vicinity and the bus station and railway station are about 2 and 6.5 km away respectively. Faro Airport is approximately 40 km away. This is a complex of 54 apartments with spacious balconies, some of which offer magnificent views of the sea. Guests are welcome to enjoy the outdoor swimming pool surrounded by a deck with sun beds. Meanwhile, fans of the fairway can head to the nearest golf course, which is 30 minutes' drive from the hotel. Active guests can also rent bicycles at reception to explore the area.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
Great location near the strip but never heard any noise from there. Good sized apartment with all you need for a self catering holiday. We had a sea view balcony where we sat at to eat and drink. The hotel was not too busy with a relaxed atmosphere with a mixture of couples and families. Rooms were cleaned everyday and to a high standard. On arrival we were given a beach bag with 2 water bottles that you could fill from a filtered water machine along with some milk and biscuits. You also get pool towels free of charge that you can change everyday. The staff are very friendly and on hand if you have any problems. From the quality of the apartment and my overall experience of my stay i would not hesitate to stay here again and had a good relaxing 10 day break.
We really enjoyed our stay here. Lovely clean spacious apartments with a beautiful beach view, very close to the strip but we couldn’t hear any noise at all, we travelled with 3 children including one baby, very bumpy for the buggy and loads of hills but this wasn’t an issue, Lidl and Aldi close by, bolts very cheap and efficient. We went down to old town every evening for dinner. Overall great value for money and we had a great time we would return again. Lovely pool also, baby used the baby pool every day. Well done to all the team at golden beach.
I spent 7 night at golden beach with my 2 teens we arrived very tired staff were lovely give us a nice welcone pack off water bottles , biscuits and pool towel and beach bag lovely touch. Our room was spottless had everything we needed and cleaned daily the maids and staff keep everything spotless and work hard , my teens were a nitemare to get out in the morning so we did struggle to get a pool bed at times as the pool area is small and the maids did come back later to clean when requested they do a fab job. The pool was beautiful once in so dont be put off by the size always very clean to with a lifeguard near by every day .The pool cafe was fab and reasonable we didnt uss it much as we were out most days. No inflatbles in the pool so we took ours to the beach
Location wise the beach was a 5 minute walk down with shops and reausturants and a little bakery on the way its a busy road with not much walkway due to parked cars so be careful . Walking up the hill brings you to the new strip with lots of bars and reaturants mini golf course and a few arcades and activities kids rides which my kids enjoyed , personally we hated the new strip we were harrassed to death amd being a neurodiverse family we dont like this we like time to look at menus and think we couldnt do this here so we spent most of our time eating by the beach are in the old town which is much better Tuk Tuk were a fab experience and parked outside the hotel 10 euros to old town we had fab meals and entertainment at old town. As no entertainment at the hotel at night which didnt bother us however there was a little pool entertainment around tea time which was fab .we went on a jeep safari which was a good day out but i have had better , zoo marine was brilliant we really loved that day reception booked us a taxi which was 21 euro but so worth it . We did a cave and dolphin boat trip on the last day which was also fab. I would come back to this hotel as there was no complaints at all but i do prefer the old strip portugal has changed alot and its not how i remember it sadly. Airport also a nitemare
Hotel beautiful though cant fault anything we had a lovely stay
Fantastic family stay. All the Staff from reception to housekeeping were lovely and made everything easy. Rooms were modern, clean and the sea views were stunning. Lots of little extras provided like a welcome pack and pool towels which were lovely— we’d happily return.
We had an amazing 5 night stay in the 3HB Golden Beach. This was my second visit and the first time to stay with my family. We arrived after an early morning flight and were warmly welcomed and given a fantastic upgrade to a two bedroom apartment. This was perfect for our family of four (kids aged 15 and 11). The apartments are spotlessly clean, really spacious and well maintained. We were also given a lovely welcome pack with some basics like milk and crackers and re-usable water bottles which we made great use of all week. The complex was busy and the only slight drawback is that there probably aren’t enough sunbeds to go round. However I was happy to get up and get some early in the morning and enjoy reading in peace and quiet for a couple of hours before the place filled up. The pool area is lovely and cleaned every morning. There is a good pool bar which serves nice food too. The location is brilliant, just down hill from the strip and above the beach but you wouldn’t know it as the place is so peaceful. There is a lovely bakery and a couple of shops and supermarkets two minutes walk from the apartments. We hopped into an Uber into old town most nights which was great but I was glad not to be staying down in that area. Overall I couldn’t rate these apartments higher for their helpful and friendly staff, great location and the rooms are fabulous, so clean and well maintained. We will definitely be back!
