Just returned from a wonderful fortnight at this apartment hotel. The location is excellent and a relatively easy walk to the local supermarket. Uphill coming back but not that difficult. I timed it several times and it was always under 10 minutes. The staff are friendly and the entire area is maintained to a very high standard of cleanliness. There is a bar area and dining facilities. Wonderful restaurant well worth a visit. An indoor and outdoor swimming pools. The only downside is that we had to eventually come back home. Alvor is a delightful area to explore, well worth a visit.
