A True Jewel in the Algarve

Our stay was in an older, 2-storey motel-type building surrounded by villas. All suites in our building faced the ocean, and the beach boardwalk was a few steps away. Our suite had a kitchenette and was large with stunning, direct views of the ocean and nearby rocks from the large balcony. Enjoyed it immensely. Difficult to find as it is in Alvor, not Portimao proper, and there are numerous Pestana facilities in the vicinity. The grounds are under construction and parts of the complex are a bit run down.

The oceanfront location is the saving grace for this resort. It is old and neglected. Beds are horrifically hard and torturous to sleep on. Staff are friendly but that doesn’t make up for facilities neglect and lack of cleanliness. Luckily they are on a a fabulous beach.

Family holiday for 5 days. Villa was an apartment in a 2-storey block, ocean views, <100m from the ocean even less to the beach). Quiet without being silent, other kids around too for ours to see and play with, other families and couples enjoying their time. Great base for exploring Alvor. Some parts of the complex a little bit more tired than others, but we felt that lent more character!

Horrible sewer stench in villas - very very BAD!!!

My wife and I stayed at this facility November 2-7. We were booked and paid through the 9th. We left two days early - our first time ever doing this in 50+ years of travel worldwide. This campus is in two parts; the high rise main hotel building, which appeared to be excellent and who’s staff were really very good and professional. The other part is the two-story villas. Both parts seem to date from the 1970s/80s and, despite efforts, are showing their age. But two ‘thumbs up’ for the main building and service there. The setting, beside the sea and between Alvor and Portimao is excellent. I understand there’s a golf course. That’s all good. HOWEVER...our experience in the villas was a disaster. We arrived as booked and were advised our room/villa was not ready/available. After a wait of several hours we were sent to a nice newly refurbished villa. Only problem was the toilets stunk - sewer gases escaping into the rooms via bad in-floor plumbing and seals. It was bad. Next day we were moved to another villa who’s toilets stunk even worse. Nothing could be done to fix this (old building, old plumbing, extremely poor maintenance...someone needs firing), so the next day we were moved again. Third building - same problem - horribly stinking toilets due to sewer gases escaping the plumbing. We communicated this to the front desk, but nothing could be done. On the 7th we gave up and left, two days early. We are amazed that this condition is allowed to exist.

The check in staff at arrival were very helpful and spoke extremely good english - The Villa we stayed in was very tired and had quite a bit of damage in the kitchen - it was however spotlessly clean. The proximity to the beach and boardwalk made up for the lack of luxury. The hotel had a heated indoor pool - sauna and steam room which was lovely - we never ate at the hotel but did eat at the beach bar and the food was very good. Supermarket 300yds from Villa .
