The Algarve / West Algarve region

Alvor is located in the Western Algarve on Portugal's southern coast. Approximately 8km (5 miles) west of Portimao, 8km (5 miles) east of Lagos and 5km (3 miles) west of Praia da Rocha, and 75km (47 miles) from Faro Airport.

The Algarve has a temperate climate almost all year round, and has about 300 days of beautiful sunshine a year. The tourist season extends from March to October and it only really starts to slow down in wintertime.

The Algarve boasts some of the best beaches which are unspoilt. Spread along the shores of the Bay of Lagos, Alvor encompasses an old fishing village, the Praia do Alvor beach and the Ria do Alvor river estuary.

Beach
When it comes to beach holidays, Alvor is hard to beat. Praia do Alvor boasts kilometres of golden sand, where you will find a private spot to place your towel even at the height of the summer.

The Alvor / Vila da Praia area

Alvor is a small fishing village located 5 kms west of Portimao & only 45 mins from Faro airport. The beautiful 4 1/2 mile stretch of sandy beach is clean and has good facilities for sunbathing and relaxation. There are several excellent beach-side restaurants most offering superb fish, meat and salad dishes, along with ice creams and drinks.

The village of Alvor just 5 minutes stroll from the apartment has traditional buildings, narrow cobbled streets and a picturesque harbour for evening strolls or stopping for a cool drink. There are numerous fantastic restaurants and bars, some with live music entertainment and most child friendly. There are open air sea - food restaurants, steak houses, Chinese, Mexican and many more.

The new racetrack " Autodroma International do Algarve " which will host many of the International motor-sporting events is also only 15 / 20 mins drive from Alvor.

There are facilities for tennis, windsurfing, and golfers are well catered for with the local Alto Golf Club and luxury Penina Championship Golf Course. Families and children will also be kept entertained at the numerous water parks,such as Slide & Splash and you can see the dolphins at Zoo Marine and marvel at the sand sculptues near Guia.

East of Alvor, Aqualand Algarve in Alcantarilha (website: www.aqualand.pt) is one of the region's premier water parks. Swimming pools help to keep you cool, while the terrifying drops of the Kamikaze and Banzai Boggan water rides offer a thrilling day out. You can also go horse riding, play golf, go motorbike scrambling, game fishing, exploring caves and grottos by foot and by boat, or play paintball near the resort as well as canoeing and sailing.

“Perfect Apartment!!” One of the best equipped apartments we've stayed in!! We didn't use pool as the sea was less than 10mins walk away. The town was also about 10mins walk. So, a perfect location too. Would definitely return to this apartment

“Great holiday, best location in Alvor” It's great when the owner uses the place themselves as we wanted for nothing! The location so close to the pool was perfect for us as we have older kids (11 & 8) so they could go to the pool... more

“Location, Complex and apartment all extremely good.” We have stayed at this complex previously in other apartments but none as good as this one. It is well positioned on the ground floor next to the pool. It is well equipped with everything we... more

“Great Apartment” We have stayed in other apartments in Vila da Praia and can honestly say that this was the best one we have rented. The apartment was spacious, well equipped and very clean throughout. Vila da Praia is a lovely gated complex with some restaurants and bars close by but not so close that noise can be heard from the apartment. We had a really enjoyable week and hope to return later in the year. Response: Many thanks for your comments .. we look forward to seeing you again soon .

“Excellent accommodation” We are just back from a week's holiday in this lovely apartment. We have two boys under 9 and they had a ball! The location on the ground floor was so easy for the kids to come in and out of the pool and because it's a gated development it felt really safe. The grounds were spotlessly clean and really well maintained. The apartment itself was excellent, really modern, well equipped and homely. I was a bit concerned only having one bedroom with the four of us, but the bedroom is spacious with plenty of storage and the double couch bed was really easy to open out and to put back. The flat screen TV with English channels was great and there were plenty of both kids & adults DVDs and books to keep us occupied! There was also plenty of towels which is always a bonus with two kids! We hired a car because my husband and eldest boy played golf but you really wouldn't need one as it is only a short walk to the beach, shops and restaurants. We will definitely be back next year. David and Sarah the owners were a pleasure to deal with and very helpful.
