    Disappointed with this property but Alvor is a beautiful place to stay.

    Liked : Large terrace with sun-beds, Location to supermarket and restaurants and main strip.Pool area and surrounding snack bars.

    Disliked : Sofa’s were covered in dirty stains. My daughter had to sleep on a badly stained mattress. Broken and flimsy furniture in bedroom. We found a Cockroach in our bathroom. Old and hard towels and bed linen. Very small double bed. Workers on the roof above us drilling and banging all day from early in the morning and up and down on ladders beside us while we were on the terrace.

    Perfect place with everything u need

    Liked : The place is clean and spacious and has everything u need. Has the most amazing private balcony. It has a fantastic pool and loads of restaurants and bars right on ur doorstep. It’s fantastic for families and someone who has walking difficulties like me. It’s so close to everything beach and all that alvor has to offer. Perfect place and perfect hosts so thoughtful and caring. They came to check on us through out the powercut of portugal. They also left us some bits to start our holiday a bottle of wine oranges and ice so thoughtful. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. When we return to portugal we will definitely be using this place again 😊

    Disliked : Nothing

    A perfect place to stay in Alvor, we would love to return soon.

    Liked : The apartment was spacious and clean inside with a lovely private terrace looking down on the courtyard and pool. The location was an easy walk to the town and harbour.

  • KimUnited Kingdom · Nov 28, 2024 9Exceptional

    Lovely very large terrace that gets the sun all day

    Liked : The terrace was just fabulous, it got the sun all day which was amazing in November! It was really quiet as top floor; however, it would be very different when busy as in a large block & you do hear chairs scraping in other flats plus there are restaurants underneath. The flat was just outside the town, an easy 8 minute walk in.

    Disliked : No covers for the sunbeds, hard plastic even though the photos showed covers.
    There is not a full oven, just a small free-standing combined oven/grill.
    Flat is slightly cluttered.

  • CristinaFrance · Jun 29, 2024 8Very good

    Great location between Alvorand beaches. Lavish apartment with one massive patio; hard to get keys.

    Liked : No breakfast. Two great patios. Two microwave ovens, two television sets--an embarras de richesse.

    Disliked : I did not appreciate being asked for more money at the end of my stay. Anythink I owed should have been on Booking.com.
