Perfect little stay

It’s in a quiet location but still only a 15 min walk from a beach or a 5 short uber to the Old Town which was about €4. The hotel is small but has a nice cosy, authentic Portuguese feel to it. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast was really good too!! Fresh fruit, bread, yoghurt, cheese, eggs etc (can’t comment on meat as I’m a vegetarian). The staff were also super lovely :) There were also books in reception area which I thought was nice if you’d forgotten to bring one. It’s also right next to a shop and a couple of restaurants which we ate at most nights (Luso Gusto).

The Vila Channa was absolutely fantastic. The staff were amazing and nothing was too much for them. It is a three star property, but the service is five-star. I felt so relaxed and loved the pool. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants an adult only property. It is a short walk to a beautiful beach and there is a restaurant next door, plus a shop and a sports bar. You can get to the old town by taxi, which takes about five minutes. Loved Portugal, and this place made our holiday.

It was perfect!

It was super calm, the staff was amazing and always there to help with anything. Just a perfect stay with good restaurants around and close to the more lively areas if you want to visit that too.

A gem in a world of busy

Peaceful spot with plenty of beaches and places to eat within walking distance. Busy marina with tours to book just down the hill. Breakfast full of choice and plenty of it. Coffee is the best. The best of all is that nothing is too much trouble for the marvellous staff they made our stay.

Beautiful room.

Beautifully decorated room, lovely pool area. 15 mins walk to beautiful coastline and beaches but also only 15 mins walk to bustling albufeira marina. Few restaurants/bars within 5 mins. Perfect for a relaxing break, close enough to everything but far enough for peace.

Relaxing, Peaceful and Comfortable stay at Villa Channa

Our stay at Villa Channa was very pleasant. The staff were lovely, and facilities were great. We arrived late, but we were given clear instructions of how to gain access to our room. The room was very clean and we were left a bottle of water each which I thought was nice. Beds were change half way through our week stay. If we didn't want cleaners to enter the room all we had to do was not put the sign provided on the door handle. The staff were lovely, very friendly. We had a late flight home. Check out was at 12, however there was a bathroom with a shower that we could use if needed before leaving to catch our flight home. They provided clean towels if needed also. So although you don't have your room after 12pm there is somewhere for you to freshen up after a day in the sun. They will also look after your bags for you. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.
