All Inclusive at AP Adriana Beach Resort is designed so you can graze, snack and sip your way through the day without worrying about the bill.

Al-Gharb Restaurant is the main buffet venue, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner with live show-cooking stations, a kids’ buffet corner and plenty of choice for fussy and adventurous eaters alike.

Grill Restaurant offers buffet-style international and local dishes by the pool for breakfast, lunch and dinner (seasonal opening), while Celeiro Restaurant switches things up with an à la carte dinner service on selected dates in high season – perfect for a change of scene without leaving the resort.

Two pool bars – Sunset Bar and Celeiro Bar – pour local wine, beer, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks for much of the day and into the evening, with snacks and ice cream available at set times.

A smart-casual dress code applies in the restaurants (no beachwear, and long trousers usually requested for gentlemen at dinner). Opening dates, times and reservation policies vary by season and occupancy.

Water babies are spoilt for choice here. There are four outdoor freshwater pools, including two dedicated children’s pools, plus a colourful splash park with tipping bucket, sprays and mini slides that little ones will want to visit again and again.

Sunbeds and parasols line the sun terraces, inflatables and water toys are generally allowed, and pool towels are available with a refundable deposit – so you can pack lighter. For cooler months or a break from the sun, there’s also an indoor heated freshwater pool located within the spa, usually open from February to November.

Down at Falésia Beach, you’ll find a long ribbon of golden sand backed by dramatic cliffs, ideal for sandcastle-building, strolls along the shoreline or simply soaking up the Atlantic views.

Active types can dip into an impressive menu of sports and wellbeing options. The air-conditioned gym is equipped with cardio machines and a free weights area, while daytime activities might include aerobics, aqua aerobics, pilates, tennis, volleyball, table tennis, darts, handball, mini-golf and pétanque (some activities and equipment incur a local charge).

For wind-down time, head to the spa where you’ll find a sauna, Turkish bath, whirlpool and a range of massage and beauty treatments (extra charge, minimum age normally 4 years; opening times can vary).

A small on-site mini-market is handy for beach toys, snacks and essentials, and the resort’s gardens and pathways lend themselves to relaxed evening strolls after dinner.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is AP Adriana Beach Resort directly on the beach?
The resort is set just above Falésia Beach, approximately 300m away. You can reach the sand either via a set of cliffside steps or along the access road, so you’re only a few minutes’ walk from the shoreline.

2. What is included in the All Inclusive at AP Adriana Beach Resort?
The All Inclusive package typically covers buffet-style breakfast, lunch and dinner in the main restaurant, with the option to dine at the Grill or Celeiro restaurants for dinner on certain nights (advance booking required). Snacks and ice cream are usually available at selected times between meals for at least five hours per day, and a range of local wine, beer, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks is served for a minimum of 12 hours daily. Exact details can change by season, so check the latest information at check-in.

3. Is AP Adriana Beach Resort good for children?
Yes – it’s a great choice for families. There are children’s pools, a splash park with slides and water features, kids’ buffets and highchairs in the restaurants, plus a dedicated children’s club for ages 4–11 offering games, arts & crafts, sports and evening activities like movie nights and mini-discos (seasonal).

4. Are there quieter areas for adults at the resort?
Although AP Adriana Beach Resort is family-friendly, the grounds are spacious, with separate pool areas and garden zones where adults can relax with a drink or a book. Choosing a room in a quieter block away from the main activity pool can also help if you prefer a more peaceful stay.

5. Do the rooms at AP Adriana Beach Resort have Wi‑Fi and air conditioning?
Yes, all room types include Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, balcony or terrace and a bathroom with shower and hairdryer. A safety deposit box is also available in rooms, usually for a small local charge.

6. Is there a dress code in the restaurants?
A smart-casual dress code applies. Beachwear is not permitted at dinner, and the hotel usually asks that gentlemen wear long trousers in the main and à la carte restaurants for evening meals.

7. How do I get from Vilamoura or Albufeira back to the hotel if I go out in the evening?
There is generally a shuttle bus operating between the resort and both Vilamoura and Albufeira (often with a small charge and limited timetable). Alternatively, taxis are widely available in both resorts and can be arranged via reception.

8. Does AP Adriana Beach Resort have accessible facilities?
The resort is low-rise with two-storey buildings and no lifts, and some areas are reached by steps, so it may not be ideal for all guests with reduced mobility. However, paths are generally wide and paved, and mobility scooter hire is usually available via reception for an additional charge. If accessibility is important, speak to a Travelisto specialist so we can request a suitable room location where possible.
