Alvor is a fishing village located 5 km west of Portimão, it became an important port during the time of the Moorish occupation. It once had its own castle, which was destroyed by the earthquake on 1 November, 1755. Originally built by the Carthaginians in 436 AD, it was attacked and plundered by the Christian Crusaders in 1189, at the same time as the larger settlements of Silves and Portimão were taken. What to see. The village itself is a maze of cobbled streets and a 16th-century parish church with a fine Manueline portal featuring a round arch and abstract floral motifs. As well as Alvor beach itself, there are some lovely golden stretches of sand towards Portimão, most notably the small cove of Praia dos Três Irmãos with its magnificent red cliffs. Further east are the deserted caves and grottoes at João de Areus and the quiet, secluded beach of Praia do Vau nearby. Further east, the bustling fishing port of Portimão has many good restaurants and plenty of night-life.

Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Alvor, Portugal

The Algarve & Alvor: The Algarve has a temperate climate almost all year round and boasts over 300 days of sunshine a year. The tourist season extends from March to October and it only really quiets down in the dead of winter. The wonderful sandy beaches of the Algarve are unspoilt and amongst the finest in the world. Away from the tourist hub, explore the quaint unspoilt villages with their narrow cobbled streets, the Ria de Alvor, the majestic Serra de Monchique or the rugged beauty of the South Westerly tip of Europe, Sagres and Cape St Vincent. Water sports such as swimming, snorkelling and big-game fishing are popular along the Algarve coast, as are boat trips exploring the caves and grottos. Several water parks and theme parks will ensure that the children never get bored.

Local food: Local markets sell an abundance of goods at bargain prices. Restaurants and bars vie for business and the food is delicious and served in huge quantities. Most restaurants have charcoal grills, turning out some of the best barbecued food you're ever likely to taste, such as freshly caught fish, chicken piri-piri and mouth-watering steaks and kebabs. Enjoy cheap local wines, jug full of Sangria and freshly squeezed local orange juice.

Golf: The surrounding area is a golfers paradise with the Championship course at Penina, Alto and Gramacho all within a 5-10 minute drive and over 25 top class courses within one hours drive. The first golf course to be built in the Algarve, the Championship Course of Penina is considered to be the masterpiece of Sir Henry Cotton. It hosted several of the Portuguese Open Championships. Penina also features two nine hole loops: The Resort Course and The Academy Course.

Review Submitted: November 3, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We enjoyed our two weeks and were very happy with the apartment, we will use it again, its ideal with young children, very safe and very clean. Paulo was very helpful before booking and during stay.
Only a short walk into the main town and the beach.

Fantastic Holiday

Review Submitted: June 29, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
Just a quick note to say thankyou Paulo for such a wonderful apartment, it really was a home away from home. Very spacious, clean and all the mod cons you would need. On top of this great spot close to the pool - essential when you have a toddler! Complex very handy to the centre of Alvor - 5 mins walk. Would not hesitate to recommend this to friends and family (just not in June as we will be coming back!) Paulo very helpful - orgainsed taxi etc for us. Thanks again from myself and my family!

Review Submitted: May 14, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2008
We Stayed at Paulo's apartment for ten days in May.It was ideally situated for the beach and town. The use of the garden was a bonus you get the sun most of the day.We have been to Alvor 6 times and this was the best aparment so far. The nightlife is great and the food is lovely there are so many pubs and restaurants you are spoilt for choice.The local people are really nice and freindly. We will be booking again. PS. the apartment really was like home from home.
