Great Location
This is a nice apartment with a great location. It is very well equipped. The kitchen has everything you need & more. The weather wasn't nice enough to lay on the beach but the closet was full of beach items which is a very nice touch. Maria was a great host. - very responsive & easy to deal with. There is a grocery store within a 5 minute walk. The beach & marina and boardwalk are also very close by. We had a really lovely stay & wished we could have stayed longer.

Family Summer Break
This was a very well maintained property and spotlessly clean. The kitchen was very well equipped could not have asked for any more. The balcony is a lovely space to enjoy after a busy day on the beach !

Superb apartment in great location
This apartment is a two bedroomed very spacious, modern and exceptionally clean with all the appliances that anyone would require. It is in a secure complex with locked gates. The owner met us upon our arrival and we even had a welcome gift which was lovely. The apartments are within a 5 minute walk to the main part of Alvor and the beautiful beach is only a 5 minute walk in the opposite direction. There is a large supermarket around the corner, the whole complex is very clean and the pool area looked lovely although we didn't use it because of the time of year. I will definitely return to these apartments without any hesitation whatsoever.
