Alvor, Faro District
Luxury two bedroom air-conditioned apartment in the 5 star Alto Country Club, one of the premier resorts in the Algarve. The historic fishing village of Alvor, with a large choice of excellent restaurants and shops, is within easy walking distance as are some of the best beaches in Portugal, notably the famous Praia dos Três Irmãos. Alvor is in reality a suburb of Portimao, the largest city in the western Algarve, and the seaside resorts of Praia da Rocha and Lagos are also nearby offering a wide variety of family entertainment.
The apartment, air-conditioned throughout, is spacious and well appointed and offers guests quality and comfortable accommodation. It has been recently renovated with super-fast Wi-Fi (200 Mb/s), satellite TV, remote controlled shutters, double glazed patio doors, sliding mosquito barriers, wood burning log fire, wall mounted electric radiator panels and a new fully equipped modern kitchen. There is a large outside patio area with comfortable recliner chairs and a dining table for 6 people.
The apartment has underground car parking, and is quietly located centrally within the Alto Club, away from the perimeter road, with virtually its own private secluded south west facing garden just across from the indoor swimming pool. The wider Alto Club gardens have been beautifully landscaped with a stunning array of tropical vegetation, waterfalls and ponds well stocked with Koi carp.
Guests also have access to two sun loungers and umbrellas on the Alvor beach situated in front of the Restinga Restaurant on presentation of their resort card which they will receive when first registering with the Alto reception.
The apartment will appeal to families, couples and golfers alike, who can benefit from a 40% discount on green fees at the nearby par 72 Alto golf course, designed by Sir Henry Cotton and managed by the Pestana Group, on presentation of their resort card.
The Club also has a wide range of on-site facilities including a large outdoor pool and a heated indoor pool with changing rooms and sauna. There is also a fully equipped gymnasium with fitness classes, and two flood-lit tennis courts with free use of rackets and balls. There is also a children's playground and paddling pool. A high chair and cot are available on request from the reception for a small weekly hire charge paid to the Alto Club direct.
There are two recently refurbished restaurants, The Thyme restaurant, which has a full à la carte menu and Thyme Out bar serving poolside drinks and snacks. Both are operated by the highly rated family restaurant Ruccula in central Alvor. The restaurant has received numerous accolades and 5 star reviews which can be found on the internet.
The reception will be happy to arrange car hire, airport transfers, cycle hire, picnic hampers and local excursions etc. There are discounts available to guests in many local restaurants on presentation of an Alto Club guest card, as well as on many of the excursions. A full list is available at reception.
The apartment is registered as an approved rental with the Portuguese Tourist Association and has been inspected to ensure that aspects of safety and hygiene are of the required standard. License No. 25915/AL.
Surprisingly large rooms and balcony with everything on hand. The wifi was excellent. We enjoyed the swimming pools and gym facilities. Excellent response from the host Paul and reception staff very helpful
We had a great stay at this property. The property was better than the pictures and everything you could possibly need was available. It was a great location for Alvor and although we had a car, you do not need one. The facilities onsite were superb - there is an inside and outside pool (inside also has a sauna) and plenty of outdoor games available including equipment for the tennis, shuffleboard and putting green. We went out of a dolphin tour which the reception was only too happy to book for us and also gave us directions to the pick up location. I highly recommend this property - we will be returning soon!
Great property with everything you need and want, perhaps other than a bbq, great location and great resort, would love to return again. Very good amenities in the property and throughout the Alto resort. Only slight issue is we would prefer property to be cleaned more frequently during our stay.
The property was amazing! Clean, and beautiful. The resort was beautiful and it was in a great location!
We had a wonderful holiday in Alvor in early April. The apartment was fantastic and the facilities on the complex were superb. Short walk into town and to the beach, helpful and friendly staff and host. Couldn’t have been better.
Check in and out was quick and the front desk people were very helpful. The location is just outside of town A fifteen minute walk to the restaurant area and up the road from the beach 15-17 minute walk There were several restaurants within about five minute walk. The apartment was clean and spacious and well equipped.
All good!
Beautifully maintained apartment, we have stayed in a few properties in Alto and this is the nicest. It has been updated to a very high standard and has beautiful personal touches. The owner was very good to deal with and very flexible in the circumstances given the challenges of traveling in these times. Highly recommended
We found the property very comfortable and clean. The resort is in an ideal location within a 10 minute walk to the beach and town centre, no need for a car. Alto club Itself is a bright, cheerful And friendly property with every amenity close at hand.
This was a first rate vacation home- it was spotlessly clean and fully stocked with everything needed- especially the kitchen!! It was a pleasure to cook in which was required, as at the end of our stay, Alvor, along with the rest of Portugal shut down due to the Covid-19 virus The interior of the home felt warm and inviting Even the patio had comfortable lounge chairs for reading and enjoying the sunny weather! We would definitely return to stay in this property!!
