Date of Stay: October, 2009

Stayed here for a week at the beginning of October. We had a great room overlooking pool area and beach. Great location although very quiet. 20 minute walk into Alvor village for main bars and restaurants which do great seafood, 4 euros in taxi which reception book for you. There are some nice beachside cafes/restaurants a short walk from hotel if you prefer to stay local. Would recommend the 'Atlantica' directly below hotel and also 'Canderrio' a bit further along. Although the hotel is very nice and clean its in need of an upgrade, looks a bit tired in places. Lots of French/German tourists and retired british. Not many kids this time of year which suited us. Weather hot and sunny for most of week although did get a bit of a downpour one day. Would recommend it if you want a quite and relaxing week.

Date of Stay: May, 2008

Stayed at the Pestana Alvor for 1 week in May with wife and 13 year old son, weather very mixed, quite cold at times. We asked for extra bed in our room to accommodate our son. We were shocked when we arrived to find a small 'put up bed' for him at the side of our massive bed, this may have been suitable for a small child but was totally inadequate for any child older than 10 years, we did complain but were told this was the only beds they supplied, he ended up sleeping on mattress on the floor for whole of week, not good, at the prices they charge. Drinks very expensive 3 euro's for small coke! It states on their site 'slippers and robes in all rooms', we couldn't find any in our room! Also they did not replenish toiletries frequently, we had to ask several times for more toiletries to be supplied, housekeeping was not to the standard you would expect for a 5 star hotel. Very nice breakfast buffet each morning, sat on terrace, overlooking the outdoor pool and sea, watch out for the birds! Hotel is in a lovely location overlooking the sea with safe sandy beach, quite a walking distance from Alvor village, taxi required at night to take you to some wonderful restaurants, including Restaurante Alcaide on Eua do Castelo and Restaurnate Resinga in the sand dunes. The local people are very friendly and polite, this is a very nice area to visit for a week, it would have been great if the weather had been a little warmer though!

This is a great hotel; pool area and waterfront make it really enjoyable. The food and restaurant are good but stay away from the buffet as it is quite expensive (better go "a la carte".) Make your own group if you want to attend any of the health activities... you need to set the energy as the instructors seem to be a bit low-energy.
