Surrounded by the Formosa Nature Reserve and on the bank of the Gilao River, the Hotel Vila Galé Albacora offers an idyllic setting for a quiet, relaxed and comfortable stay. Once an old tuna fish factory, the original buildings have been cleverly transformed into an attractive hotel and the workers cottages into guest rooms. With its own chapel and small and interesting museum along with a bar, two restaurants, swimming pools and stunning gardens what more could you ask for!

 

The nearby fishing town of Tavira has a great selection of bars and restaurants for you to sample traditional Portuguese cuisine with fresh fish on most menus.  The busy fishing harbour and indoor market providing local produce is an interesting place to visit and for the bird enthusiast, the surrounding area in the Nature Reserve welcomes the seasonal migration of birds - will you find time for golf?

With some excellent courses within easy driving distance, we think that this is a delightful place to stay for an enjoyable and relaxing golfing holiday.
