We stayed at the Maralvor apartments for a week. The apartment was large, spacious, clean and overlooked the pool. The staff were friendly and spoke good English. They appreciated our very limited attempts at Portuguese. The pool was great. It was busy but most people seemed to put their towels down early so we decided to join them. There were... more

Very spacious accommodation, great balcony overlooking pool. It didnt have a reception as such, but didnt have any problems checking in at the bar, arrived at 10am and checked into room immediately. Pleasant atmosphere around pool and we never had any problem getting a sunbed. Nice bar, always fairly quiet probably because its a little bit limited and pricey compared... more

Our family of four (2 adults, 2 young boys, 10 and 12) stayed in the Maralvor hotel recently. Upon arrival (just before lunch) we were told we had to wait until 3pm to get our room which was a bit disappointing, and the kid (literally) who was running the bar was way out of his depth.

On the down side the bed was very old along with the bedding and too lumpy for a decents night's sleep. During our stay we only found the reception open twice, which was inconvenient. The bar... more

Stayed here for a week at the end of June, weather was lovely just one day slightly overcast at the beginning of the week. The appartments were spacious with everything you need for a self catering holiday. Appartments were cleaned daily and towells changed every other or upon request. Tianca snack bar on site by the pool was reasonable but... more

We stayed at the Maralvor mid September for one week. It wasn't too busy then, meaning the pool area wasn't overcrowded. The staff were friendly. Its a good ten minute walk to Alvor town centre, the beach, and bus stop. There is also a supermarket, selling just about everything you could want, within ten minutes walking distance. The room was... more
