The apartment was very well laid out and has every thing you might need. Quiet position and staff very friendly. Nice pool to sit round if you don’t fancy the beach. A little bit of a walk into town if you have no car. Definitely would stay there again.

Great option at a great price!
This property is great with a need for a few touch ups - the air on did not work I the 1st room and the staff were very efficient moving us to another room however in the 2nd room the the bath tub jets don’t work, the clip in cover blocking of the tub plumbing was broken as were the towel racks. The staff do try to assist and the rooms are very spacious. I did appreciate that the room looks exact like the photos!

Convenient property but would stay elsewhere in the future. VIP status not recognised and tried to charge us extra to make the sofa bed. However, the staff who serviced our room each day were very good!
Be sure to bring your own tea and coffee as this isn’t provided.
Rooms aren’t soundproof so can be very noisy.

It was about a 10 min walk into Alvor restaurants, but felt safe. V quiet hotel, with large studio room and lovely staff, although there don't seem to be many of them.Plenty of tables and chairs inside and on decking, but could do with a comfortable area, soft chairs (armchairs) and side tables to have a drink at or read, maybe a book exchange shelf? Only downside really was that there were not enough umbrellas, it would be good to have one umbrella per 2 sunbeds and people were reserving sunbeds and umbrellas at 8.30am and not using them till 2pm. But overall was a lovely relaxed stay, friendly and helpful staff, and would stay again.

The room was lovely with great views. Housekeeping were very good. Friendly reception staff.
Wi-Fi was dreadful……so slow and kept shutting down. Whilst the staff were apologetic no manager was ever available to discuss this. As an independent travel agent I was there doing research on this hotel for future guests and I can honestly say I will not be recommending it! Good wifi is so important for guests nowadays so how a 4* hotel can allow this I have no idea! I struggled to book forwarding travel, transport and flight check in which is unacceptable
Also charging for a safe in 2024 is unbelievable! I stayed here 10 years ago and commented then on this ridiculous cost so cannot believe they are still doing it! These safes must have paid for themselves again and again. A 4* hotel should have no charge for this facility,

Het was middle of nowhere
Alle restaurants en dergelijke waren op een afstand onmogelijks te voet te doen.
Personeel was onvriendelijk
Ze helpen je niet met je bagage
Steuken andere gasten tegen je op in plaats van
Te bemiddelen
Weinig professionaliteit
