Albir Playa Hotel & Spa sits in relaxed, upmarket Albir on Spain’s Costa Blanca. It’s close enough to stroll to the resort’s bars, shops and restaurants, yet tucked just back from the seafront for a calmer vibe. Albir’s pebbly beach is around 1km away, with views across the bay and a seafront promenade perfect for lazy evening walks.

Fancy a change of pace? Benidorm’s theme parks, nightlife and waterparks are about 6km away, while the whitewashed old town of Altea is an easy trip for cobbled streets, galleries and sea-view tapas.

Albir’s pebbly beach: approx. 1km
Benidorm: approx. 6km

Free courtesy bus to the beach (14 Jun – 11 Sep, subject to change).

At Albir Playa Hotel & Spa, dining is relaxed and family-friendly, with plenty of choice across the day.

Restaurant Albatros
The main buffet restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a mix of Mediterranean favourites and international dishes plus show-cooking stations. Expect salads, grilled meats and fish, pasta, rice dishes and tempting desserts. The hotel kindly requests no beachwear at mealtimes.

Cafeteria Albir – Lobby Bar
Open roughly 10:00–00:00, this sociable lobby bar is your go-to for coffees, soft drinks, aperitifs and evening cocktails in modern surroundings.

Pool Bar & Snack Bar
Seasonal poolside bar (usually mid-June to mid-September, 11:00–19:00, depending on occupancy) serving drinks and light bites so you don’t have to stray far from your lounger.

The central outdoor pool is the heart of the hotel – a generous freshwater lagoon-style pool surrounded by greenery, sunbeds and parasols. There’s also a shallower children’s section, so younger guests can splash about safely while adults relax nearby. Pool towels are available with a deposit or local charge.
