Beach stay
A few hundred yards from the beach. Excellent parking, which is rare commodity in certain areas of Portugal, and a gorgeous view of the beach from our 9th floor apt. Restaurants close by, and a short drive to the Benagil caves. Would stay again,

Beautiful View but old Building
The apartment was clean. We were there for a week and only 2 small bath towels. The building was under construction that we were not aware of. The lightning throughout the building was off, so the lobby was dark and there was only one small light outside our door that only worked sometimes. The two very small old elevators were very unattractive. Not good for someone claustrophobic. We had to use them because we were on the 9th floor. I’m sure if there was no construction it may have been a better stay. Glad it was only a week.

Dear Guest. You were told that the building was under construction in preparation for painting but your balcony side and the view were not affected. You had two bath towels, two face towels, and two small towels for 6 nights. But we don't provide towels for the dog you brought. I am sorry that because they were working at the front door side the light was sometimes off. There are no small elevators in the building. Those are Schindler elevators for 4 persons.

Spectacular views and wonderful location!
We had such a wonderful time staying at this location!! Alvor was the perfect town to stay in as it had an absolutely wonderful beach a less than 5 minute walk from our door, with a beautiful, easily accessible boardwalk for long beautiful strolls. It was close to the bigger towns, but it was a bit quieter and less busy than other places we visited so that we could have a bit of a retreat! The only thing I would mention is if you are travelling with young children (as we were), I did find the balcony a bit stressful! It's perfectly safe for adults and older kids I'm sure, but my children are 3 and 1 and I felt very nervous about them crawling up on chairs near the edges, etc. The balcony height is quite low, which allows for a wonderful view even when sitting, but I did find that a bit nerve wracking with the young babies! It is not a negative about the property at all, just something to keep in mind if travelling with babies! :) The place was in pristine and clean condition upon our arrival and had everything we needed! Thank you for a beautiful stay!

Wow what a location!
We had a fantastic time and could wake up to that view every morning happy. A very clean and well equipped apartment. A short and very pleasant walk into Alvor with numerous bars and restaurants offering quality food at very good prices. The only problem was that the time went too quick! Will definitely visit again. Highly recommended

Alojamento 5*
Espaço muito acolhedor, limpo e confortável. Situado em frente à praia (em frente mesmo), com varanda e vista deslumbrante. O local é muito sossegado e próximo ao centro de Alvor. Recomendo.

Localização excelente!
A localização do apartamento é excelente, limpo, equipado com todo o necessário e uma varanda com ótimas vistas pro mar. A única queixa seria a internet que não funcionava bem.

Cara Maria Agradeço o seu comentário. Fico muito contente por terem gostado do apartamento. Quanto à internet costuma funcionar bem. Mas deveria ter-nos dito que o router wi-fi estava com problemas, enquanto estava hospedada para que podessemos resolver o problema.No entanto lamento Espero que para o próximo ano possam voltar. Muito obrigada

Traumhafter Ausblick!!!
Das Apartment hat alles was man braucht. Wir waren schon zum 2. Mal dort und haben uns wieder sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Bett ist bequem und die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht. Der Strand ist zu Fuß in 2 Minuten zu erreichen und auch im Dorf ist man nach einem kurzen Fußmarsch. Das absolute Highlight ist aber der Wahnsinns Ausblick vom Balkon,einfach traumhaft. Auch der Kontakt zur Vermieterin ist freundlich und unkompliziert. Wir würden immer wiederkommen und freuen uns schon auf unseren nächsten Aufenthalt. Vielen Dank

Toller Blick
Wohnung abgewohnt, Küche einfach und fettig, Geschirr nicht sauber und Töpfe steinalt. Sitzkissen und Sofakissen verfleckt. Das Bett hatte leider nur 1 Matratze, dafür steinhart und deutlich schmaler als normal. Nach Kontaktaufnahme mit dem Vermieter wurde nachgebessert, geputzt und Kleinreparaturen durchgeführt und Handtücher und Bettwäsche nachgereicht. Trotzdem kein Komfort. Schade, der Blick ist traumhaft.

bel appartement vue mer
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet appartement, bien équipé et très bien situé. Le balcon avec vue sur la mer est très agréable. Le seul bémol que j'apporterai est le manque de climatisation, nous avons eu très chaud la nuit et avons eu bcp de mal à dormir car il n'est pas possible de faire des courants d'air. Peut être l'achat d'un ventilateur pourrait-il être envisagé pour remédier à ce problème (d'autant que nous comptons revenir..)

Un grand merci pour vos commentaires . Cette année a été une année particulièrement chaude . Et des nuits très chaudes qui est inhabituel par la mer . Quoi qu'il en soit est prévu l'année prochaine pour installer un système de ventilation . Salutations, Alexandra Craveiro
