Lovely place but issues with ants
My boyfriend and I stayed here for 5 nights and the location was amaaaazing, we would definitely go back to Alvor. The apartment was really clean and the only reason we’ve reviewed that section lower is because it did have major issues with ants and we weren’t made aware of this at all. When I mentioned it afterwards, the house managers were very dismissive of the issue but I do feel it would be right to let guests know about the ants as there were a lot of them when we arrived so it wasn’t even from leaving food out. Checking in was pretty easy but we didn’t get any info about how to do this which would’ve been nice to have prior to arrival and so we called through the number on the website when we arrived and waited to have it unlocked but we only ended up waiting about 10mins so was fine- also we weren’t made aware of the €100 cash deposit needed upon arrival and so had to take cash out on the spot which cost us £20 so make sure to bring the money with you! The location is really great though and we recommend staying here. The apartment is lovely and the beach is so close by. It’s absolutely gorgeous. There are also lots of shops nearby which is very convenient. I think there could’ve been more info on the ‘house rules’ as it wasn’t clear that we needed to remove rubbish from bins in the house or where the outdoor bins were even located and so this was a last minute rush for us as we were suddenly worried we would be charged the €100 deposit. Overall our stay here was very positive though and I thought the price was pretty good for the area which tends to very expensive.
