http://www.petcheyleisure.com//cached-media/RSR_DSC_IMG_CPO214273.jpg

Clube Praia da Oura is perfectly positioned on the golden beach of Albufeira in the Algarve.

For many of our guests, Clube Praia da Oura has become a home-from-home, with many of them returning time and again to enjoy the great social atmosphere and some of the best sea views in the Algarve.

The resort provides two swimming pools, lush tropical gardens, sauna, bowling green, disco, bars, restaurant, children's playground area, self service launderette and sundeck. The vibrant town of Albufeira is only a short walk away.
