Just arrived back from Club Alvorferias - bring loads of suncream it was 38 degrees when we were leaving at 12.15pm! Alvor has changed a lot, we were there 17 years ago and it is much more built up a bit more commercialised. The apartments themselves were fine, spacious and fairly well equipped. There are 3 Gas rings and 1... more

One of the best apartments we have stayed in. 2-bed room apartment located on the receiption side of complex near the shop,pool and bar. Less than a 10 min walk from Alvor turn right on main rd and head directly into Alvor or take a Taxi for 5 euros(approx). Plenty to see and do. Enjoyed the ZOO MARAINE. Great for... more

Agree with the recent posts. Dont be put of by first impressions. We booked two weeks with a 9 month and 3 year old. Our first room was not very good, having young children we needed a decent balcony that we could sit out and enjoy a glass of wine safe in the knowledge that the children were ok. First... more

Spent a week in these apartments and on first look appeared a bit dated, but they were very clean, spacious and everything worked ok, so what more do you need? we were located in the apartments on the otherside of the road ( over a footbridge) but we found the pool on ourside to be a bit queiter and spent... more

Have just returned from these apartments and have to say I was really happy. First impression wasn't great however that soon improved!! The apartment we had was very spacious with a decent size kitchen, seperate sitting/dining room and a good size bathroom. There is a supermarket on site but it is a bit expensive. For food shopping, your best bet... more

Club Alvorferias is one of the best apartments I have ever stayed in when travelling abroad. Clean, Relaxing and full of helpful people. We were situated on the opposite side of reception, which was perfect as it was quieter, and when we came in at like 4-5am from the bars, everyone would still be in bed or apartments. You would... more

After reading some bad reviews for this complex,i was pleasantly suprised to find our well maintained 2 bedroom apt(booked independently),yes the complex is busy around the pool area but our kids loved it within an hour they had made new friends and were into the holiday mode,entairtainment is poor at night but you will always want to make the 10... more

We stayed at the Alvorferias for a week in September 2008. While we loved Alvor, we would never stay at these apartments again. In terms of the accommodation we couldn’t complain, it was clean and spacious. Excellent value and better than expected for what we paid (£213 each) But we had a major problem with the reception staff which lost... more
