Salema is a lovely unspoilt village with a beautiful beach, several good restaurants, and a few shops. It is surrounded by natural beauty, wonderful hiking trails and convenient access to Sagres and the Atlantic coast.

From villa not really walkable as street so very narrow. Path not suitable for older folks or those with mobility problems. Had to drive. Good restaurants, beach and coffee shops. Grocery store close . Easy drive to other beaches and towns for exploring.

The street closest to the beach where we stayed was the best 'old world' part of Salema. Other parts can be less aesthetically pleasing but the whole place is less fussy and busy than other coastal spots like Luz or Lagos. A quiet place worth 2 nights. Restaurant options good too, even in winter.

I loved this beach!
I loved this beach! It was so picturesque and uncluttered with commercialism. The water was a little too cold for us to swim, but it was a beautiful to stroll along the beach. Although this was a small beach, there were plenty of restaurants.

Quiet fishing village, not touristy.
Quiet fishing village, not touristy. Beautiful beaches and views of the ocean. Friendly people, good restaurants, lots of fresh fish. Easy to get around if you are wearing sturdy shoes as lots of steps and steep paths into the village from Salema Beach Village, however, there is a shuttle service from the hotel if required.

I deliberately chose to stay in Salema as I was looking for a small, pristine beach/fisherman g location - and I found it all there! Salema has preserved its authentic self despite the tide of tourism that has engulfed other parts of the Algarve. The beach is big enough to absorb many visitors without being full. The sand is beautiful and sunsets are of course very special. The village has some very good restaurants, a gelateria and lots of cute shops. And who doesn’t want to live, even temporarily, on Rua dos Pescadores!

Beautiful property with very friendly staff. Salema beach is walking distance and is an expansive family friendly beach. There's a free shuttle to the beach and the town center, although we chose to walk as it was an easy walk. The pool is nice and you can buy delicious food and drink to enjoy while lounging. Everyone who worked at the property was very kind and helpful. This was a lovely, quiet base for our family to explore several towns along the coast.

We wanted to stay in Salema while in the Algarve. This small, well run, tidy hotel was centrally located in this small fishing village, walking distance to small, fantastic restaurants and across the street from the beach. The hotel was modest in every way. And very clean. The complimentary breakfast was thoughtfully prepared and good, and the dining area even had cloth tablecloths, little details. The hotel staff was helpful.

This home provides a uniquely beautiful place to stay in the best town in the Algarve! The Moroccan-inspired architecture was beautiful and we were truly only steps away from the beautiful beaches of Salema. We enjoyed having a large bathroom, kitchen and living room. I believe that the private courtyard of Casa Saudade is the most beautiful in all of Salema! We very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful town.

Clean apartment, well-located to the beach - 5 mins away. Followed a tip by a previous reviewer to request Villa 6-7 as closest to beach, which was a game changer as it avoided the steep walk back to the Villas closer to the pool. Stunning sea view. Really gorgeous. The location is great, the village has some good restaurants and the beach is great for families, with calm sea.

Salema is a great place to stay for the beach holiday. The apartment we stayed in was big with very welcoming interior. The terrace with the daybed is perfect for time when you’re done with the beach but not really ready for dinner. The personnel took good care of us and were very attentive. Will we come here again? Absolutely yes!!!
