Our Story

With 45 rooms and 6 suites, The Albatroz Hotel has kept the architectural trace and the natural beauty of the three different buildings that compose it, along with de comfort of a modern and luxury hotel.

The Main Building (Duke of Loulé’s Palace)

Acquired by the Albatroz group in 1982, and after an 18 month period of works of remodeling and extension of previous installations, the Palace of the Dukes of Loulé, then known as “Almond Box”, was built in 1873 and was home of several families until the ‘60s, when it opened its doors to Tourism, with the name of Albatroz Inn. At that time, it had 11 rooms, one dining room, a bar and a nice lawn, replaced by a pool some years later.

The Palace Building

The Albatroz Palace (across the street), was bought in the year 2000. At first named House of D. António of Lancastre (the first owner); this house was built in the XX century and keeps its architectural Italian style. Also known as “the house of the yellow ceilings”, it has a beautiful balcony with arches and columns facing the sea.

The White Building – connecting with the main

Bought in 2004 and launched in the summer of 2005, the White House was the most recent acquisition of the Group. Keeping the façade of a real beach “Chalet”, the house was perfectly integrated with the other historical buildings. The natural solarium and the lawn were enlarged allowing even better panoramic views, especially from the suite (duplex) on the top floor of the building.

1963

The beginning of The Albatroz Hotel started in the '60s when it opened for the first time with the name 'Estalagem Albatroz' in 1963. Revamped and enlarged during 18 months in 1982, Duke of Loule Palace (the main building), also known as "the box of almonds", was built in 1873 and was home to several royal families.
