Wonderful apartment, thoroughly recommended.
This apartment was pretty much faultless for our 10-night visit to Alvor. The communication with Isabelle, the owner, before our holiday was prompt and easy, as was the meeting with her agent when we arrived in Alvor. The apartment itself is beautiful, spotlessly clean, decorated in a modern style and very well equipped, especially the kitchen which is full sized. It is very large and spacious for a 1-bedroom apartment and has a huge rear terrace, which gets the sun in the afternoon and evening (there is a smaller terrace on the front of the building with sun in the morning). There is air-conditioning in the lounge but not the bedroom, not an issue for our May/June holiday.
The location of the apartment was perfect for us. It takes perhaps 2-3 minutes to walk into the centre of Alvor with its restaurants and bars, the beach another 7-8 minutes further away. There is also a large and very reasonably priced supermarket perhaps 2 minutes up the hill.
We had a wonderful time in Isabelle's apartment. It genuinely is a home from home and we very much look forward to a return visit.
