We had a lovely stay/ The property had everything that we needed. The only comment we would make is that we think the bathroom/shower rooms and kitchen need updated.
The pool was excellent and the gardens very well looked after
We have just had a very enjoyable stay in this apartment. The apartment was spacious, clean and well equipped with lovely views of the sea from the large balcony. The Alto Club complex is lovely with great pools, a pool bar, a gym, tennis courts and a restaurant. The complex is a short walk from the centre of Alvor (which is full of lovely bars and restaurants) and the coast/beach. Thus apartment was also very close to the back gate allowing even easier access to the supermarket and town.
We will definitely return!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Alvor. This was our second trip to Alvor, this time with extended family also holidaying at Alto Club. The apartment is spacious and homely with a well equipped kitchen. Lots of hangers and drawer space in the spacious wardrobes, and lovely to have a good choice of paperbacks. The sun terrace was well used by us and offers good views. All positives with the exception of lack of air conditioning and wifi. We were aware of this when booking. Wifi within the apartment (it is available at the Pool Bar) would have made it just a little easier for booking trips and restaurants. We kept the doors to the sun terrace open at night, but disturbed a few times with traffic noise and returning revellers. Alto club is well maintained with beautiful gardens, and the pool set up well organised with no excessive hogging of sunbeds tolerated by the helpful pool staff.
We stayed at this property with two friends who previously stayed there in July. We, and they, were surprised to find that the door to the bathroom had been damaged through forced entry and couldn't be locked. It was apparently in the same state when our friends stayed in July. Nothing was mentioned about this at the time of booking and we were only informed of the damage by the receptionist at the Alto Club when we checked in. Whilst this didn't spoil our stay it is concerning to say the least that the door hadn't been repaired in 3 months. I would also add that the property would benefit from free WiFi and air-conditioning in the bedrooms. Overall the property was clean, tidy and well appointed and ideally located for the centre of Alvor and the beach.
Very good size apartment with plenty of storage and facilities. The bathrooms could do with some updating but they were very clean and fully functional and did not in any way spoil our holiday. There was a very large balcony with views of the sea and town and each night an owl would sit on the lamp post right outside the balcony. Wifi was also installed prior to our visit with very good coverage. The amenities on site were excellent and all credit to the gardener who worked tirelessly each day to keep them looking immaculate. Lots of lovely restaurants and only a 5 minute walk to the old town.
Would have no hesitation in staying here again.
A estada foi excelente e, efetivamente, o apartamento correspondeu Ă s expectativas.
Um pequeno senĂŁo: Serviço de televisĂŁo direccionado para publico alvo de lĂngua inglesa e ausĂȘncia de Internet - WiFI.

Ruim en fijn ingericht appartement. Groot terras vanwaar uitzicht op zee. Lichte inrichting. Alles is aanwezig, we hebben niets gemist. Eigen parkeerplek onder het appartement. Mooi park welke goed wordt bijgehouden door de tuinmannen. Mooi zwembad met ligstoelen. Note: er ligt een doorgaande weg voor het appartement langs (buiten het park), Dit stond niet in de beschrijving.
Our family of four (two teenage sons) absolutely loved our second stay in this apartment. We have stayed in Alto Club a great many times and the central location and facilities - elder son was a frequent visitor to the gym this time - is ideal for us. Reserved sun beds at Restinga are the icing on the cake. The apartment was fab with everything needed for our holiday. Thanks Tracy for everything!
A lovely apartment in a great location not far from beach supermarket village with restaurants. Have stayed at Alto club a few times and staff remain as friendly and helpful as ever. Lovely new pool bar. Apartment well equipped clean a couple of issues needing repair but owner quick to respond and address. Lovely view of sea from balcony where we enjoyed our daily lunches. Rental car felt felt secure in covered car park under apartment.
Thankyou Tracey for a lovely stay.
Very well equipped and furnished apartment with very easy access to Alvor town and beach boardwalk and the many restaurants.
Alto Club is very well maintained with a good pool and poolside cafe/bar just yards away.
We will definitely be returning in the future.
Very comfortable and spacious apartment which suited us to a tee!
We loved our stay in this apartment at the Alto Club as it was convenient to the town, felt very safe and had everything we needed for a relaxing week in the sun. The pool area was well managed and clean. The pool bar was very reasonably priced but, above all, the staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food wasnât bad either! All cooked on demand.
The booking process and contact with the owner were straightforward and reassuring as I have heard of holiday bookings which have not gone so smoothly. Any requests regarding the property with the owner were quickly and sympathetically dealt with.
Initially we were a bit disappointed that the restaurant was closed for refurbishment but, hey ho, we would not then have discovered all those fantastic restaurants in Alvor! What fish dishes! What conversations! What craic! Try the restaurant at the market, you will never taste sardines like it! The locals think so, so, trust their judgment.
Canât write a review without mentioning the beach! Wow! A walkerâs paradise! The sea was lovely to swim in and tourists are not hounded by people trying to sell sunglasses and the like. I always feel that if there are plenty of locals also enjoying it, well, they know best, donât they?
Thank you for the experience.
Mmmm..... must arrange another holiday there soon!
Lovely apartment , fantastic location for beach and town
This is a really lovely, comfortable and spacious apartment with just about everything you need , on a beautifully maintained complex with great facilities.
What stood out about this apartment to us was it's great location on the complex, close to the security gate at the bottom of the complex closest to the beach and town, so just a short stroll to both. Other family members stayed on other complexes and weren't so well situated. We had also initially looked at other apartments overlooking the beach which turned out to be in high rise blocks, not so lovely we thought - so felt blessed to have chosen this apartment. Also the balcony is wonderful, it runs across both the lounge and main bedroom, has a sea view and get the sun all day.
On the complex, we used the snack bar and kids enjoyed the pool ; there's inflatable time a few times a day. There's a safely deposit facility in reception for for just âŹ2 a day.
There's a really good supermarket just around the corner from the beach gate. Alvor town has a small selection of shops and a really lovely choice of restaurants and bars , without feeling cheap and tacky. We all really loved this town. The boys loved the beach too and the big waves - they actually weren't bothered about going to the water park as they enjoyed the sea so much!
The owner Tracey is easily contactable and really friendly and helpful, which was a relief as this was my first booking through Owners Direct .
We had a great holiday at the Alto Club (2 adults, 2 teenage kids). This apartment had great views to the sea and was very handy for the pool and the lower gate into the town.
we had a very enjoyable stay in this apartment, near the beach has the use of two pool.

Married to David, with 2 children, we live in North Devon. The family is mad about sport in general and we try to incorporate the exercise program with Scooby the family Jack Russell (running on the beach is a firm favorite - for Scooby that is!!) We also have a 3 bedroom holiday apartment in Croyde North Devon (if you fancy a surfing break in a cooler climate!)
We holiday here ourselves and love it here, the complex is relaxed, well maintained and very convenient and you can holiday without a car. Alto Club is unbelievably special - there is a certain atmosphere to the place and definitely has something for everyone. The proximity to the village makes it an ideal location - fabulous restaurants and bars await you, the food is always consistently good, the welcome warm, the ambiance mellow yet very jovial.
I think you will struggle to find such a perfect holiday option - whether you are booking for a family or as a couple. The facilities at Alto Club are superb, there is golf on the doorstep, the beach is a short walk and the village and short hop. You can make your holiday as busy or as relaxing as you like - I like a combination of the two - Alto and Alvor are the perfect combo :)
