Room Information

  • Total rooms (162)
The hotel Vila Gale Albacora is the result of the restoration of the former tuna fishing camp Arraial Ferreira Neto, where the people of the sea linked to tuna fishing lived from March to September. This hotel in Tavira, set in broad Natural Park of Ria Formosa, is thus an architectural witness to the way of life of fishermen and their families, when the typical Almadrava - the frame to capture the tuna was still used.The old fishermen houses, workshops and warehouses gave place to 161 rooms with beautiful views of the Ria Formosa. The existing chapel was preserved and is now adapted for hosting weddings and christenings, as well as the old school, converted into a kids club. And the former bakery became a free small museum that is open to the public.
