Great facilities and close to the beach
Michael, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our Seaview cliff studio was tired and needs updating. However the main cleaning lady we met was wonderful and did a good job. Staff were mostly polite and engaging. Wifi was ok. Breakfast was good in variety but something were cold ( scrambled eggs were watery and held in a very large pan.
Linda, 9-night trip

I like that it was right on the beach. We had a room with the sea view and waking up to the sound of waves or seeing the moonlight reflected on the ocean was a surreal experience

Great service … offered an extended check out time unprompted. Great beach access … visit the restaurant along the beach to the right :)
Julie, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check in was great, parking simple, and included breakfast had great options. For a 5 star hotel I had expected a bit more. The coffee was an instant coffee rather than fresh brewed, the facilites were ok but the location and pool were exactly what we wanted so we would stay again.
Cassie, 2-night trip

Beautiful property. Spectacular view from the room. Excellent suite accommodations. Furniture is a bit dated but very nice.
Alfredo, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly staff made our arrival very welcoming. Received an upgrade to a large ocean view room. A spectacular view, spacious room and nice hotel amenities. If spending a whole day by the pool is for you, this is a great hotel to choose.

2-night trip

6/10 Good

Good: location directly at the beach Poor: Breakfast with awful coffee; bad smell in the bathroom; expensive beach chairs; long waiting time at breakfast before getting seated; the whole hotel is old, not in the best condition and never a 5-Star Hotel.
Martin, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I liked the nice pool with a gigantiska and marvellous view of the seaside , the close by beach , the nice breakfast, the buffet at the restaurant . I loved the nice hospitality of the staff. We found the beach nearby easily down the stairs. We had an easy parking everytime at the hotel . The rooms were perfectly situated at the sun deck.Everything was clean and comfortable. We were very satisfied with this beautiful hotel and surroundings close to Alvor and Portimao.

The staff noticed our preferences such as white coffee and picked up that it was my husband birthday from his passport. Delivered cake and champagne. Fantastic location on best beach in Algarve

Pestana Alvor

The hotel is in a beautiful spot overlooking the sea and beach. Hotel staff are very nice. Hotel is very clean throughout. Lift down to the beach is a nice plus. Bed rooms in older part of hotel are a little tired and dated. It the views from the hotel you can’t surpass.
Paul, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Loved the view and closeness to the beach. Nice to be able to sit outside with a drink and enjoy a relaxing day. I was quite disappointed that they had not yet turned on the A/c for the season. All I could do was open the door which did not have a screen. I was ALWAYS warm overnight even when taking the heavy duvet out of the sheets. In my opinion, thermostat/temperature should be an option for the guest and for that reason alone, I probably would NOT stay again or recommend.
Amy, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the upgrade Friendly helpful staff. Noisy first room which the hotel was aware of and only upgraded after we complained. But overall very good.
