Apartment in the Algarve, Alvor

The property and location was underwhelming and not what I had been expecting. Apart from the bath room, which appeared to have been renovated, the apartment's furnishings were old and shabby and not a place I wanted to spend any time in to relax. For how long has the pool at the front of the building lain derelict? This was my first Vrbo experience, and, I have to say, it was not rewarding.

Stayed for one week. Appartment good if not a bit out dated. Also maybe a matress topper would be an idea as bed quite hard. Furniture in lounge needs oudating but overall very good.

The communication with the owner was great!

Overall based on the price paid for the stay at this property, I was happy with my stay. Although the apartment has dated items within it such as the living room sofa, balcony furniture etc.Bathroom is modern and has a good quality shower system. The bed is comfortable. Smart TV in the living.The accommodation is ideal for a base to access other local areas such as Lagos and Albufeira.Good selection of tourist destinations all within a 30 minute drive from the property. Alvor beach is around 10 minutes drive away. Host is excellent with their communication and check in and check out was very easy.One final point, the property is situated in ground that offer peace and quiet. You may hear the occasional dog barking but other than that, very pleasant to sit in the balcony in the sun and enjoy the tranquility.Don’t expect a five star accommodation. It’s basic and considering the price, its value. If you have higher expectations then this is the wrong property for you. You are getting reasonable accommodation at a reasonable price.

The pin did not take us to the right spot. Chris hooked us up on WhatsApp and got us there. Check in after that went good. The apartment is spacious, kitchen was well stocked. Bathroom a very good size. Located in Alvor which is a central in the Algarve, it was perfect to explore the entire Algarve. I would stay there again.

This rental is located in a what seems to be an old hotel. When you walk onto the property there is an abandoned pool to the right. The interior of the building is old and poorly lit. The aparetment we stayed in needs some love. While it was clean and got us through our stay i won't be recommending it to people i know. There was coffee and tea for your morning enjoyment but that is as far as comfort you will get. We couldn't figure out how to work the tv so we were stuck with youtube. No instructions for anything or recommendations for area restaurants or activities. The couch is leather that is peeling and a sheet is over it. The peeled leather got everywhere during out stay. There is no dish towel in the kitchen to dry your dishes. I had to request some hand soap as the one left for us was 90% water. The mattress was comfortable but some new pillows would be nice as the ones provided were old and very flat. The sheets could be replaced to as they were bally from use. Each person was given 2 towels and no extras, not even a bath mat to stand on when you exit the shower. Outside the building property on the other side of the wall are 3 roosters. So if you enjoy being up at 5am this is the place for you.

Great stay will defo come back thanks Chris

Property was large and had everything we needed but was a little too far out of town for us

Mould all over the bathroom bedding filthy and stained

Good location for exploring the Algarve. Not far from the center of Alvor. Close to bars and restaurants and near the pool at the campsite where you can use it for a few euros. The apartment is fairly clean. I had good communication with the owners with all information about the area and property. My little suggestion is not enough: garbage bags,toilet paper etc.In overall, a good place to stay for a few days. Thankyou Chris&Clara

Good location, good stay for three people but lacking basics like toilet paper, dishwashing tablets. Not enough towels for all and sheets and blankets were very dirty. Overall not clean and old furniture.
