Birthday celebration

A lovely apartment for a weeks holiday to celebrate a special birthday. Location very central to the village and beach. No need for a car if you only want to stay in Alvor. Occasionally there weren't sufficient sunbeds around the pool but plenty of sun on the grass around the terrace of the apartment.

Pleasant six days in Alvor

Pleasant basic apartment, very well situated to enjoy the old town of Alvor, and its many restaurants ,the beach and the promenades on the different board walks, and also convenient to explore the surrounding coastal villages,The equipment in the kitchen was quite satisfactory, the living room comfortable, the shower-bath somewhat tricky, and we did not like the polyester bed sheets.The contact person at the property was very helpful and solved the initial internet problem.

Myself and my Husband stayed for 5 days in the apartment ,my only wish was we should have booked for longer. The apartment is beautiful, big and spacious, home from home all the comforts you need. Fully fitted kitchen, fantastic shower, very comfortable bed and pillows and a fabulous balcony to enjoy. The complex is lovely and very well maintained with a beautiful pool, there is mattresses and an umbrella in the apartment for you to use for the pool. The apartment is in a great location 10 mins stroll to a beautiful beach and 10 mins stroll into town where you will find a huge choice of restaurants each one as good as the next. Grace, Sarah and Alfredo were very helpful and there to answer any questions, they accommodated us with an early check in as we had an early flight. Thank you. Look forward to another stay in the apartment.

Fantastic Apartment in Ideal Location

Loved everything about this really spacious accommodation. There was everything we needed from fully equipped kitchen to a decent hairdryer. Three patio doors from the lounge to the wrap around terrace. Gated complex felt really safe and the pool area is lovely with no fighting for sunbeds. Restaurants and bars are close by and it is only about 10 minutes to the centre of Alvor and to the beach. There is a smart TV but no British channels on it. The patio chairs and table are wooden and it would have been nice to have a more comfy chair to lounge on outside. Other than that, it was perfect and so clean. Would definitely return.

Friends trip to Alvor

A beautiful apartment in a great location. Well equipped with a lovely pool. One minor issue was the fact that the bath sealant needs replacing. Every time the shower was used we had to put towels on the floors to prevent the bathroom flooding. But overall a great apartment.

Vila da Praia 13th to 27th May 2022

The apartment was recommended to me and it did not disappoint. Communication with owners was absolutely first class. So friendly. The apartment was extremely clean and so well equipped it made our stay an absolute pleasure. An ideal location, only about 15 minutes stroll from the harbour front and all restaurants. But the bonus of having the Cactos Bar and a really nice restaurant just up the road was perfect, best of both worlds. Highly recommended and we will certainly be returning again.

Spotless property and superb location. Nice and peaceful neighbourhood. Great communication. The only improvement I would suggest is to invest in new bed linen and towels as they didnt match the quality of the apartment.
