Visited for 9 nights at the start of October 2011. Apartment 411. Had to check in at the bar as reception was closed when we arrived but no problem. Bar closed at 7pm around the time we visited so after this time check in would be at a different apartment if you arrive later. Not sure about high season. The... More

We booked this apartment for half term (october) and it stated that the bar and facilities closed 1st November. When we arrived reception was closed and we had to ring a number to get the key. Everything was closed, not a good start. Had we known everything closed early we would not have booked these apartments. When we got the... More

Firstly I would like to say that this was my first holiday with my boyfriend, and first holiday in 5 years. I found such an amazing deal (7 nights, flight, hotel and transfers for 2 people =£380), that I was worried it would be a disaster. How wrong could I be!?!? We arrived at the hotel at 1am after a...

Just got back from a week in alvor. If you arrive late, you have to pick up key from the Dunas Hotel. The apartment was very spacious. Very large living room, kitchen with all the facilities, eveyrthing you could possibly need. We were situated at the rear of the hotel, although view not great from our balcony, just trees, it...

Alvor is the most beautiful place to visit if you don't want to see a McDonalds and go to a disco until 3am! The Maralvor was a great base but if you want luxury from your holiday don't book here. The apartments are huge, a livingroom, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, hallway. Basic but spotlessly clean, nothing a lick of paint wouldn't... More

maralvor is a good value but basic hotel circa 1970's Spain! In much need of a refurb but as most of the apartments seemed to be privately owned, don't think that's going to happen. Rooms are huge with a good fridgeand kitchen and massive lounge area. Main problem is it's much more than a ten minute walk away as we... More

We traveled as a couple with baby and mother in law and stayed in a poolside 2 bed apartment. Unfortunately poolside also means roadside and having no air con and windows open means lots of noise all the time, added to this the walls are paper thin. Beds were some of the most uncomfortable we have ever slept in and... More

Aetclthough the apartments are starting to date a bit they are fitted out with all facilities ie. cooker,fridge,washing machine,microwave. They are the most spacious I have ever stayed in with the lounge absolutely huge. Bit disappointed with the towel changes but never had a problem with getting a sun bed. Hotel bar now shuts about 7.00pm which is a bit... More
