Natura Algarve Club nestles in lush gardens close to the Oura area of Albufeira. This tranquil Portugal holiday complex is the ideal spot for Mum and Dad to relax, while there's plenty to keep the kids happy. Add into the mix well-fitted guest accommodation and food and drink options on your doorstep and you have the recipe for the perfect holiday on the Algarve.

The pool area takes centre stage during the daytime; work on your tan on a sun bed by the water's edge or seek the shade of parasol to lose yourself in a book with a cocktail in-hand. Younger guests can have fun with new-found friends in the children's pool or at the kids' area. Perhaps pack your beach bag and towel and head to the beach for sandcastles and paddling.

The colourful studios and apartments are kitted out with all the amenities you need to self cater. There's a kitchen to prepare a meal or drink at a time to suit, a satellite television to catch up on the news, and a bathroom with bathtub/shower to wash away the cares of the day. Step onto your balcony to watch the sun go down as you sip your favourite tipple.

The snack bar is the food and drink hub; serving everything from light bites and soft drinks to beers and cocktails. You'll also find a good selection of bars, cafes, and eateries just a leisurely walk away; maybe sample Portuguese specialities such as grilled sardines, caldo verde, or bacalhau cod washed down by a glass or two of vinho verde.
