Top Alvor Hotel Reviews

Alvor Atlântico Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Location is great, close to beach and pool. 15 minute walk to downtown. My only complaint was I thought I was getting a balcony, ocean front, but had a side balcony and windows ocean front."

Pestana Alvor Park

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean hotel in all areas including the pool, the room itself, the restaurant and outside eating areas. All the staff were lovely. Check in was smooth and speedy & front desk team so helpful when booking the waterpark (and got us a discount), taxi to the airport (which was cheaper than Uber) and generally great. Breakfast excellent. Great choice from cooked to fresh bakery items and the best freshly squeezed orange juice! The bar and restaurant team were all so helpful especially with my daughter who has an allergy. Hotel is in perfect location for walking to the beach but also the town with all the restaurants / cafes. The room was much bigger than it looked on the website and big balcony overlooking the pool. Was stocked with everything you need if planning on preparing meals. Swimming pool was a great size and so good to have the indoor pool plus jacuzzi. Had no problems getting loungers around the outdoor pool, towels were put out early but still always loungers available. Overall we loved this hotel and the staff. Would highly recommend!"

Penina Hotel & Golf Resort
