Facilities: A bit dated, but not a major issue.
Cleanliness: Acceptable.
Location: Fantastic, very close to both the beach and the main street.
Overall, I was quite pleased with my stay. Our room type featured a balcony, which was lovely to relax on. The hotel breakfast was also good. While the pool was on the smaller side, it was still perfectly adequate for a refreshing swim.
The hotel has a swimming pool, but the grass separating the swimming pool is full of mosquitoes and bugs. The temperature of the swimming pool is still quite cold in mid-March, which is not suitable for swimming. The hotel is located opposite the beach, so it is 25 minutes away from the city center. It is quite dark when walking back to the hotel at night, which feels a little dangerous. The room is large, with a good sense of space, a terrace and enough storage space, just like the pictures. The only drawback is that there is no hair dryer. If you go to the reception to pick it up long before the daily check-in time, it will have been rented out. The room has a kitchen with enough kitchenware, but you need to clean it yourself. Otherwise, you need to pay the cleaning fee in advance at the reception.
Once called the Alvor Luna Bay when bedrooms seemed larger!!! Renamed and reshaped. Swishly refurbed as new. Now the main problem is the lack of storage in what seem smaller bedrooms despite voluminous balconies. Simply, storage is inadequate for two guests for longer than a week, maximum. Let me describe............ a small [4feet tall?] open metal wardrobe rail with five fixed point clothes hangers. Four or five open shelves beside this rail., one occupied by the rooms safe. In all other respects its fine. The staff good and plentiful and helpful. The location the best in town!
Just managed to book this for 1 day for my birthday weekendfor myself and my daughter and wished I had booked it for the entire duration of my 6 day stay in Portugal. Clean, peaceful, pool was crystal clear, staff were friendly. d I somehow managed to get it for a very competitive price, not the usual rate. Guess it was birthday luck 😎 Please refer to some pics🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Comfortable room, nice staff, river views of Spain's Sanlucar de Guadiana makes this hotel thoroughly worthwhile, even if it is located a bit out of the old town of Alcoutim (10-15 minutes walk).
Overall it is a solid 4.5 star hotel and experience. The location is unbeatable, with breath-taking beach and sea view just off the front desk, as well as our beach room. The beach room is highly recommended for someone into the ocean view. The facility and staff are great. The Mercado even sells medicine (we got Gasvicon) which my wife could use the day we were there. The only downside that makes it not a full 5 star is that the room, decoration, and furniture are a bit outdated.
The rooms were small and poorly cleaned. We even had to change rooms because of dirt on the curtains, and we found hair on the bed and pillows. Towels were consistently missing, a problem we observed multiple times.
The pool restrooms were always heavily soiled with urine.
The food was good, and the experience at both restaurants was incredible.
The pool temperature was great, but it was off-putting to see it full of hair.
Mosquitoes were also a major issue; even with repellent, they were relentless.
At best its a 4star property. During our stay hotel wasnt at its best, so ill put 3.5 stars.
Hotel entrance looks like a train station waiting room.
For a moment we thought that we are underground as its dark everywhere inside the hotel. Toilets were smelly on the entrance ground, Windows were cleaned on Christmas last year i think. Dirty floors.
Rooms are dingy, but spacious.. Lots of cupboard space. you cant use the mirrors in bath area as its too dark. Water in Toilet bowl keeps on going unless you fiddle with the push buttons. TV Remote was filthy.
Towels are from the 10th century, use with care! Toiletries are basic brands, nothing oo la la!
Breakfast is good, not excellent. Theres a live station for omelettes and pancakes. Coffee from nescafe machines with pods, again not very 5 star standard.
Stay here if you have a good price deal but not high expectations.
DO NOT EXPECT 5 STAR SERVICE! You have been warned.
One of the best stays in Europe vacation.. view was stunning and enjoyed every bit of our time there.. breakfast spread was amazing and sparkling wine included was cherry on top.. highly recommended ..unfortunately pool was under renovation during our however no complaints since the weather was too cold to enjoy swimming pool
A hotel that meets expectations. The service and customer service are excellent. The facilities, as are the rooms, are very adequate. The location is ideal for being close to the sea.
Very Good

Great
Lovely location and hotel Excellent value for money
Excellent location minutes walk from the city centre and overlooking the marina. Room was fabulous - upgraded although we didn’t ask for an upgrade. Although the room wasn’t ready the receptionist said he would ring us when the room was ready and he did just that. Rooftop swimming pool and solarium is a real bonus and the gym is well equipped. Breakfast is buffet style and has an excellent choice. Dining room overlooks harbour and being serenaded by Andres piano playing at breakfast was the icing on the cake.
AAngel Del CampoThe hotel is very comfortable and the rooms are very comfortable.
It is well parked at some apples at June dates and the centre pila nearby.
The worst thing: if you are with children is not recommended because stairs are dangerous.
The jacuzzi was broken.
The room was struck with a TV, the shower and the bathroom were broken danced but it could be used.
They don't make room, they don't change towels, they don't pick up the paperboard, I think they change it weekly.
Premiere the aesthetic comfort and we end up uncomfortable with the placement of clothes, baggage and bathroom.
The hotel was fantastic—spotlessly clean, with my room tidied daily. The breakfast and facilities were excellent. They also allowed me to store my luggage after check-out and continue using the swimming pool and lounge. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone!
The room was nice and clean. Beds are very comfortable. Rooms are a bit noisy in general. You can hear the people talking in the next room. Food and drinks were fine. The indoor pool is currently under maintenance, so we couldn’t use it.
Great location in Carvoeiro, easy walking to the town center. The hotel is perfect: location, amazing breakfast with great variety of food, pool, bar and view.
