About this property
Casa dos Arcos is a very special manor house. Its a 300 years old palace built in the 18th century, where a noble family used to live. The house and its interior remains pure and original providing the opportunity to travel in time and enjoy our unique atmosphere. It's perfectly located, right in the center of the old town in Albufeira, less than 200 meters from the beach. Situated in one of the oldest and most famous streets right next to the center square. You can find all that you need in walking distance (ex: supermarket, restaurants, bars, shops, transports). We have a fully equipped kitchen with all the necessary appliances at you're disposal. We actually have a supermarket just next door from the house. We also feature indoor and outdoor common areas were you can relax, socialize or do some work. Every private room is quite spacious and includes a private bathroom, some rooms include a balcony overlooking the oldtown while other have a window showing our garden. Each room is unique and features characteristics and decoration that remind you that you are staying in an old Portuguese Palace. In the private rooms you will find a private bathroom, as well as tasteful furniture and decoration. You should find most of the commodities that you would expect from a hotel room, such as complementary towels, water, soap, shampoo and hairdryer. Every dorm has a private bathroom, every bed includes bed linen and towel. There is also lockers for every guest. Hope to see you soon!
