ETHOS Bertolina Urban Wellness Living

Welcome to ETHOS Bertolina Urban Wellness Living — the natural evolution of the former Bertolina Guest House, now enriched with a wellness and yoga twist, designed for those seeking balance between the urban charm of Albufeira and true body-and-mind relaxation.

Location & Atmosphere
Located in the heart of Albufeira’s Old Town, ETHOS Bertolina places you just steps away from historic cobblestone streets, traditional restaurants, local shops, and of course, the beach. With the shoreline only a 2-minute walk away, the sea and sand naturally become part of your daily rhythm. Here, the magic of “being in the city” blends with the freedom of “being in the Algarve”: culture, heritage, local life… and the ocean. For those who love to walk, explore, or simply observe the flow of the city and the sea, this location is unbeatable.

Comfort & Space
ETHOS Bertolina prioritises generous spaces and authentic comfort. Despite the lively atmosphere of the city centre just around the corner, our rooms offer comfortable beds and air conditioning, ensuring a cosy and refreshing rest. Guests particularly value the welcoming atmosphere of the house and its pool overlooking the city, a unique highlight after a day of beach time, yoga, or wandering through the historic centre.

Wellness, Yoga & Lifestyle
Under the new ETHOS brand, the concept gains a new dimension: we aim to offer not just a stay, but a way of living well. Imagine starting your day with a gentle yoga class, followed by a healthy breakfast, breathing in the ocean air, relaxing by the pool, or strolling through Albufeira’s historic streets… all with the comfort and warmth of home. With wellness activities available at the Hyperbaric Spa located just steps away from your retreat, you’ll find practices that promote health and balance, aligned with our vision of “yoga & wellness”.

A New Experience with Soul
ETHOS Bertolina Urban Wellness Living is more than accommodation. It is an urban-coastal refuge where every guest finds:
  • The convenience of the Old Town + beach right around the corner
  • Welcoming spaces, reliable rooms, great beds and air conditioning
  • A wellness philosophy that embraces yoga, rest, simplicity and conscious living
  • The freedom to live Albufeira at your own pace
Best Rate Guarantee on our website. We will offer you a massage if you find a cheaper price under the same conditions (same room, Program, number of people, booking dates and stay dates)
