Mertola Holidays

My stay at Pestana Alvor Praia exceeded expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel right at home with their genuine friendliness and helpful attitude. The attention to detail in room cleanliness and maintenance was top-notch—everything felt fresh, comfortable, and very well kept. Between the warm service and fantastic facilities, we had a truly relaxing stay. We will definitely be returning!

There was a spa aheated pool,jacuzzi sauna you had to book a hour slot and it was with upto 8 other guests unfortunately at our slot it was a single man just staring at what we were doing so not very relaxing!At evening meals you had to purchase water if you wanted adrink.in our room a bottle of water was provided every day, A/C was broken nothing was said untill we said we were too hot then a fan was provided.also the tap only trickled out if was on hot some of furniture alittle tired looking,but pillows& bed very comfortable.Evening meal was buffet not much choice but always a fish/ meat dish not great for veggies but fresh salad available every night at this resort i think I might of preferred a beachfront hotel.

The apartments are so well equipped including dishwasher, washing machine, dryer and cooking facilities. The public areas are well maintained and the staff are friendly and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at White Shell Beach Villas in the Algarve! It was the perfect place for our family, especially with our 2.5 year old, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our room was spotless, and having a washing machine in the unit was incredibly helpful during our eight day stay, especially with daily trips to the beach and pool. The staff were exceptional, warm, welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. I also enjoyed several spa services, which were absolutely wonderful and provided the perfect opportunity to relax and unwind. We loved every minute of our stay and would highly recommend White Shell Beach Villas to families looking for a comfortable, clean, and relaxing getaway in the Algarve. We would absolutely love to return!
