… beaches edging the clear, blue sea. The former fishing village of Albufeira has expanded since the 1960s into one of the Algarve?s major holiday resorts and now has over 16.000 permanent residents. During the summer the old centre of the town with its plentiful collection of shops, bars, clubs and restaurants is filled-up with tourists from all over the world. Albufeira is surrounded by some of the best known beaches from Praia da Falésia in the west to Praia de S. Rafael in the east. A new marina is currently being constructed on the west side. Surrounded by pine trees, the Sheraton Algarve Hotel overlooks miles of unspoiled beaches, which edge the clear blue sea. The beauty of the hotel?s impressive Portuguese architecture, with Moorish influence, creates airy interiors and delightful guest rooms. The hotel?s location is unsurpassed, standing proudly on a spectacular cliff-top setting overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
