Charming Vila Channa
Small adult only hotel, big on customer service. We were given a very warm welcome by Omar who explained everything we needed to know and then showed us to our room which was well presented and very clean. The buffet breakfast was fantastic with so much choice including cereal, fresh fruit, cold meats, cheese, eggs and lots more.The staff were always smiling and ready to help, nothing was too much to ask at any time. We will certainly go to Vila Channa again for a relaxing, stress free break.

Everything you read is true.
Vila Channa Everything you've read is true (apart from the review where the person seemed to complain about everything, but there's always one isn't there) my wife and I loved this place and the yummy breakfast was a great way to start the day. Omar is such a nice chap and does go out of his way to make sure you're having an enjoy able stay, we would not hesitate to go back and hope to next year. It really is just about the perfect place to stay if you want to relax and of course the Algarve is gorgeous!

Lovely Hotel
We had a great stay at Vila Channa, Omar and Channa and the staff make you very welcome. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone. For transfer from and to the airport we booked Yellowfish and they were really great ,arrived on time both ways and the drivers were really good , we also got as a bottle of wine from them.

low key and relaxing
Our stay at the Hotel Channa was very enjoyable. The villa is beautiful and the couple that run it are really nice and very helpful. The room we had however was very small and the bathroom even smaller. It is also out of town and although there is a nice family style restaurant next door there isn't much else in the immediate vacinity - Albufeira old town is a 10min cab drive away. Overall a nice stay but a bit over priced.

Great for couples
The hotel was small and very friendly, with a relaxed atmosphere. Nicely decorated and very clean. The room would have benefited from a small fridge, and a less lumpy pillow! Otherwise great!

Lovely Villa close to Old Town & Marina
Beautiful Villa, room cleaned daily, very friendly staff. Lovely buffet breakfast every morning. €4-€7 taxi into Old Town, lovely restaurants beside Villa Channa too if you don't want to go into the Old Town, beautiful beach 5-10 minute walk from the Villa and far nicer than the main beach at the Old Town. Definately recommend this Villa, it is quite but also close enough to Bars/Restaurants too if you want that. Booked Airport Transfers with YellowFish Transfers, €30 each way (€60 total), it is private transfer, they greeted us with a bottle of wine at the airport when we arrived! Nice friendly driver. Will go back to Villa Channa, would recommend to anyone.

Helt enkelt perfekt! Nyrenoverat rum. Underbar personal. Rustik och hemlagad frukost. Välutrustad bar med fantastisk service. Lagom långt till allt, både med bil och på gångavstånd. Vi spenderade fyra nätter här och kan inte vara nöjdare!

Familiäres Hotel in der wunderschönen Algarve
Das Hotel ist durch seine Grösse und die sehr freundlichen Betreiber sehr familiär. Man fühlt sich sofort wohl und bei Fragen oder Problemen wird einem jederzeit weitergeholfen. Das Hotel ist 15 Gehminuten vom wunderschönen Sao Rafael Strand entfernt. Mit dem Auto ist das Städtchen Albufeira in wenigen Minuten erreichbar. Allgemein ist es empfehlenswert ein Auto zu haben, damit man auch die anderen wunderschönen Strände der Algarve besuchen kann. Restaurants sind auch zu Fuss erreichbar.

Supernöjd gäst som gärna återvänder
Vi blev oerhört bra bemötta direkt när vi anlände till hotellet. Fick information om hotellet, bra matställen i närheten, vilka badplatser som fanns omkring och allt nödvändig information om det och allt annat man kan önska. Vi kände oss väldigt väl omhändertagna och jag är övertygad om att vi kommer återvända. Området kring hotellet är kanske inte det flashigaste, men avkopplande, nära till bad och fantastisk service.

très bon hôtel
Etablissement propre, personnel accueillant, sympathique et parlant français. Petit déjeuner copieux. Cependant il est nécessaire d'avoir une voiture car un peu éloigné du centre ville. Nous nous y sommes tellement plu que nous n'avons pas voulu changer pour nous rapprocher des centres villes, préférant revenir dans cet hôtel pour y dormir.La chambre est confortable et silencieuse. Je la recommande et j'y reviendrai volontiers. Très bon rapport qualité/prix

Cadre calme, hotel typique de l'Algarve
Nous avons passés 5 nuits dans cet hotel, nous ne voulions pas être au centre d'Albufeira mais pas trop éloignés non plus.15 mn à pied de la plage, 10 mn en voiture du centre. Bus à proximité. Le personnel est sympatique, peu de chambre donc très calme. Piscine agréable et très bon petit déjeuné buffet à volonté (aussi bien salé que sucré). Parking à proximité gratuit. Le prix est tout à fait correct. Les chambres sont suffisament grandes et bien équipées (TV, Wifi). Nous avons eu droit à la terrasse vue sur la piscine avec deux transats.

Hyggelig hotell med flott personale
Vi hadde nylig et veldig hyggelig opphold på Vila Channa. Hotellet er relativt lite og ligger noen kilometer utenfor sentrum, som kan være en god ting siden sentrum til tider kan være veldig fullt av turister. Vi ble tatt godt vare på av hotellets sjef, som alltid tok seg tid til en samtale eller til å hjelpe oss hvis vi hadde spørsmål. Vi vil absolutt anbefale dette hotellet for en rolig og hyggelig ferie med kort gange til flere flotte strender!

Dejligt med fred og ro
Dette er et rigtig dejligt hotel, vi kunne parkere ved siden af hotellet gratis, selvom der står de ikke har parkeringsfaciliteter. God morgenmad, meget behagelig betjening i fine omgivelser. Vi spiste på en fantastisk restaurant O marinheiro der lå ti min. væk. Dette hotel er særdeles anbefalelsesværdigt og til en rimelig pris.
