Hotel rooms very well appointed with full kitchen facilities if you wanted to have a night off from eating out but why would you - fabulous restaurants, and fresh sea food was particularly good. Hotel is a couple of minutes walk from beautiful beach and, as pool is fairly small with limited number of sunbeds, this could be a better... More

Just returned back from the Alvor Atlantico where I stayed with my husband and 6 year old son. They are part of the Dom Joao village. They're about 500 mtrs from main hotel Dom Joao, where all facilities are ie. Reception, Restaurant, Swimming pools, Bar, Kids Club etc. Only facility at Atlantico is indoor swimming pool none of the rest... More

Bad points- 1 - Yes,you read that correctly,no food or drink,not even a snack bar! For breakfast you had to walk down the road every day to one of the other Pestana hotels,same if you wanted a drink at night or a bite to eat. 2 - The other hotel that we had breakfast in ( Pestana Don Joao 2)...

My wife and I stayed in Pestana Atlantico for 5 days in June 2009. The hotel is part of the Dom Joao II village at Alvor.

Having stayed in, and been pleased with, other hotels in the Pestana group we were very disappointed with the standard of accommodation at the Alvor Atlantico. It is very very tired and needs an urgent upgrade especially as it is being advertised as 4 star when in reality it is more 2 star. The good news is the rooms are... More

We had a suite on the top floor of the hotel which has a double bedroom, living room with sofa and dining table, kitchenette and bathroom. The terrace was very big with amazing views (11th floor). The atlantico could do with a refurb to update the decor but it was... More

I have just got back from Alvor and it was fantastic. We stayed in The Pestana Atlantico which is a aparthotel right by the beach and 10-15 min walk from Alvor. The location was great and the hotel had lovely staff, was very clean and served a good buffet breakfast which was replenished frequently. The hotel does need a bit... More

This is the second time we have been to Alvor and what a beautiful part of the world it is. The town of Alvor is lovely and the beach is magnificent. The hotel was a little tired and could do with a bit of a revamp but the staff are absolutely fantastic. Our room was spotlessy clean and was refreshed... More

This property was part of a timeshare I had purchased two years ago. I was very disappointed in the property. The rooms were old, extremely small and tired looking. The beds, and especially the bathroom was very cheap looking. There was no bureau or clean closet to put away my clothes and I lived out of my suitcase. I travel... More
