We had a wonderful time at Dunas do Alvor, pool is absolutely great and run so well by the 2 lifeguards. Sabastian was one of the guys (probably have that wrong) and cant think of other mans name, but both were just great. Sharon at the reception was so helpful and went out of her way to help us with anything we needed.

We had a great time on south coast of Portugal and big part of that was Torralvor apartment, it had everything we needed for comfortable stay. Fully equipped kitchen, air conditioning, big fridge and it was cleaned to good standard. 5 min away you can find excellent walkways over the marshes by the see, which is refreshing in the early morning, the sea is 10 minutes away with its beautiful extended beach with some rock formations for photos. Don’t forget to visit Lagos as well, simply beautiful town.

Nice tidy and cheap

Other than the weather being terrible (I'm not saying it could be helped) the place was nice, the staff were accommodating and knowledgeable. I wasn't happy with the noise the workmen were making but they were doing a job.

I stayed with my daughter in a small apartment for 8 days in February . Location is very convenient, 10 min walking to the beach. The people in the office is very nice to deal with and helpful. You can find everything you need in the kitchen, enough towels, and very handy to have a washing machine. We'll definitely come back and highly recomed this place.

Very enjoyable experience

We really enjoyed our stay at Torralvor. The 1 bedroom apartment catered for all our needs and was very clean. The staff were very helpful if we had a query. The complex has a big swimming pool and spacious sunbed area. There is also a couple of bars and bistros on site with all staff very pleasant. We will definitely return here.

We had a very pleasant stay at Dunas Alvor. The apartment was spacious and spotlessly clean – a big compliment to the housekeeping team! The location is also excellent: a big supermarket around the corner and just a short walk from both the beach and the town center, making it a perfect base for a relaxing holiday. What really stood out was the exceptionally friendly and helpful reception staff – always welcoming and ready to assist with anything. All in all, a great stay with good value for money!
