Close your eyes for a moment and imagine relaxing on a beach. Soaking in the beautiful sun, listening to the waves crashing on the shore. With a drink in your hand and your best girls by your side, could you imagine anything better? Of course not.
If that’s the kind of weekend away that you are after, then an Albufeira Hen Do is one of the best possible choices for you. This beautiful city is on the south coast of Portugal, offering some of the most tropical weather you’ll experience on a European holiday. Coupled with beautiful views and great value accommodation, Albufeira is an absolute must if you want to celebrate your last weekend of freedom in style.
To make planning even easier, we have curated some exclusive packages that combine the best activities with central accommodation.
1. The "Albufeira Party Boat" Package
If you want a short, sharp blast of fun, this is the one for you. It includes 2 nights in central apartments, return airport transfers, and tickets to the legendary **Sunset Boat Party**. You'll enjoy an open bar, DJs, and a swim stop in the crystal-clear ocean. It is the ultimate way to celebrate.

Where you stay in Albufeira defines your weekend. Unlike many UK destinations where hotels are the norm, the Algarve excels in self-catering luxury.
For the ultimate experience, we recommend booking one of our **Private Villas**. We have an exclusive complex of 7 villas, each with private pools and BBQ areas, perfect for large groups who want their own space to party. You can relax by the pool during the day without fighting for sunbeds! Check out our specific Albufeira Party Villas page for more details.
Alternatively, if you want to be right in the middle of the action, our **Central Apartments** near The Strip or the Old Town are fantastic value. They give you a base to get ready together before heading out, often with balcony views of the ocean.
This is a popular question about European hen parties. It’s understandable, considering that a lot of traditional beachside destinations can end up costing a fortune once you factor in flights, hotels, and drinks.
Luckily, Albufeira excels when it comes to value for money. Flights to Faro are frequent and cheap from almost every UK airport. Once you are there, food and drink prices are significantly lower than in the UK. You can enjoy a glass of wine or a pint for a fraction of the cost at home. If you are watching the pennies, check out our guide to Free and Cheap Things to do in Albufeira for tips on beach crawls and sunset viewpoints that don't cost a penny.
The list of things that you can do while you are here is huge. With it being a beautiful coastal city boasting twenty-one beaches and a marina, water and beach-themed activities are high on the agenda.
By far the most popular activity is the **Sunset Boat Party**. This will take you for a beautiful cruise along the coastline while you spend time drinking and dancing with a selection of like-minded individuals. Whether you want it to be the highlight of your afternoon or prefer to be out at sea as the sun sets, it’s an absolute must-do.
Other water-based activities include **Jet Skiing**, **Surfing**, and **Private Yacht Charter**. After all, who doesn’t like the idea of relaxing on the deck of a sumptuous yacht while enjoying a glass of bubbly?
Some of the most popular ways to spend time on an Albufeira Hen Do aren’t to do with the beach, however. **Cocktail Making**, **Horse Riding**, and a **Vineyard Wine Tasting Tour** are just some of the other activities that can form the basis of your itinerary.
The nightlife on an Albufeira Hen Do will definitely keep you fully entertained. However, you need to know the difference between the two main areas.
The Strip (Areias de São João): This is the neon-lit heart of the party. It is a long road packed with bars, mechanical bulls, and open-air clubs. Landmarks like **Linekars** and the famous **Kiss Nightclub** are located here. It’s wild, loud, and perfect for a big night out.
The Old Town: For a slightly more relaxed (but still lively) vibe, head to the Old Town. Here you will find cobbled streets lined with cocktail bars and restaurants. It’s perfect for a nice meal and some sophisticated drinks at places like **Sal Rosa** before the dancing starts.
