A fantastic all round experience.
A wonderful, clean, well equipped and perfectly located property. It has the benefit of great ground floor space outside all within a safe gated complex that has ample parking. To add to our wonderful experience our hosts were always available and responsive. I can’t recommend this apartment enough. We will be returning as soon as we possibly can.

Perfect stay in a beautiful apartment.
We had a wonderful 10 day stay at Sandra's apartment; it's a real home from home with everything you could possibly need. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, spacious lounge and the lovely wrap-around terrace made it ideal for alfresco dining or a glass of wine in the sun. The apartment is very private, it felt extremely safe and the location is great, close to both the village and the beach. We were celebrating a 50 year wedding anniversary whilst we were there and this apartment made it all the more special. Sandra was a perfect host, very helpful, understanding and so kind - thank you! We hope to be back very soon.

Best Ever
Without doubt the most impressive apartment we’ve ever stayed in, and we’ve been travelling for almost 50 years. Sandra provided everything you could ever require and some of the touches were so rare e.g. a pull along shopping trolley ( would never have dreamed of using one at home but better than carrying those big bottles of water) and an iron that was absolutely pristine, we’ve been to so many where the iron provided was ancient and covered in burnt material. Small details but so important and impressive. Location of apartment is spot on both in terms of where it is within the complex and where the complex is in the resort. We’ve already booked again for next year.

This was our third time staying at this wonderful apartment. Such an excellent location. Close to the town for the bars and restaurants and also a short walk to the beach. What a great plot on the corner with lots of outdoor space for dining Al fresco or using the sofa and chairs for relaxing on the patio. Highly recommend this well equipped apartment, it has everything you need.

Great time away good weather but accommodation ideal for our family. Clean very well equipped and spacious had everything you need inside and even choice of pool side toys for the kids. Great private corner spot with small garden and table and separate sitting area to chill out also. Great equipment in kitchen area. Area and pool great size plenty of space and sun beds everyone very welcoming no loud noise very respectful people during our stay. Close to shops and supermarket and very near to the beach. Booked again for 2024 even before leaving Alvor this year!. Host at hand and local and good contact and the arrival process very smooth shown around the site and everything within the apartment any quest answered but most covered during comprehensive welcome.

Amazing, will definitely be back 😊
We arrived earlier than our check in time, Sandra was more than happy to allow us earlier access and was waiting at the gate on our arrival to let us in. The apartment was bright, specious and spotless. Sandra had also got us some supplies in, milk, water, tea, coffee, wine and ice pops for the children. The apartment is at the end so gives you alot more private garden space than others. There can be a bit of noise in the evening, traffic, people chattering and the wee chu chu train. But this never interfered with my children sleeping or us. The pool area is gorgeous and just up the garden from apt. Always plenty of beds and umberellas. The water is very chilly, but we climatised over our stay!🙌 The beach is stunning, beautiful sand, clear water 🏖 and only a few minutes away. There is an intermache just down the street along with lots of other wee shops and bars. The strip is only a few minutes walk away, lots of wee cobbled streets with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants and a small but stunning church at the top of the hill, above the fishing marina. The fishing marina is just down from the strip and apartment, a beautiful spot to watch the sunset, there is a little beach area that my children loved playing in after we had dinner. Plenty of wee bars and restaurants and some amusents for the children to enioy. Overall we had the best time in Alvor, apartment was perfect and had the perfect location. We will definitelt go back and would highly recommend.

Lovely Apartment Great Location!
We have just returned from a week's stay at this lovely apartment which we chose based on previous reviews and were not disappointed. Our directions and meet & greet instructions were clear and went to plan which when you're arriving as it's getting dark we were grateful for. The complex is gated giving an additional layer of security. We had a hire car and there were plenty of parking spaces. The apartment itself is lovely and spacious, very clean and very well equipped. And the complex itself is beautifully maintained with a large pool area which was never really busy and we didn't have a problem getting sunbeds. Location wise you cannot fault it. Over the road is the beach a couple of minutes walk away and if you turn in the other direction you are within minutes of restaurants and a large supermarket and only a slightly longer walk (& I mean slightly by maybe an extra 5 mins) from the main village which is a vibrant place with shops bars & restaurants. The only negative thing I would mention is traffic noise from the road that runs between the complex and the beach which didn't make for particularly quiet chilled times on the patio during the day or evening. Despite the single negative this place is definitely worth a visit. If you are looking for a great apartment in a great location you won't be disappointed.
