    Good Points: Clean, ideally situated, friendly staff


    Bad Points: Dated, noisy, room smelly with cobwebs


    General comments: We have just arrived back after a weeks holiday. We do not smoke, and when entering our room for the first time we were taken aback with the stale smell of cigarette smoke, this took around 4 days to clear! The furnishings and fixings are so dated, even the balcony light was just hanging from the wall....bulb and cable not fixed. There were cobwebs hanging from the corners of the ceiling. There was also a smell when standing in the kitchen area, after investigation I found it to be the extractor....smelt like rotten food! The bath shower mixer tap diverter would not work correctly. I have stayed in many 3 star hotels, maybe we have been spoilt previously, but we were definitely overcharged for what we got.....room 504 avoid !!!

    My girlfriend and I got this apartment as a last minute deal for a week, when we arrived from the outside the hotel looks like the place you wouldn't stay and we had to wait near 2 hours for our room. But we discovered that are apartment was in a separate block and it looked really good. We were shocked to see how big our apartment was and it was nice to go into after the wait, it could have slept 6 people overall.
    We discovered the beach on the first night and were amazed by it, without a do ...

    If the Mirachoro Apartments had been located in the centre of Praia da Rocha, it would have been much better. We found the walk into town took about 20 minutes at your ease but, in addition, you had tons of steps to get to the beach and a long walk over the beach to the water. There was no way my 5 year old would walk back. Bus service runs three times a day but last bus home is around 5 pm. I ended up renting a car (reasonably) from reception at the hotel and it was delivered and picked up ...

    We stayed at the Alto Golf and Country Club - Alto Vau apartments in Alvor Portugal in October. the weather was amazing, just like an English summer's day. The privately owned apartment was very smart, yet homely and there was a lovely pool. At this time of year there were hardly any people in the apartments, just one or two owners spending a few weeks out there - lucky them.

    We had only a week, but it extended the summer and was very good value.

    We have already recommended the place and ...

    we wasn't sure what to expect as it was the first time we had been abroad. The area itself was up and coming. Alot of building work was still going on around us to other appartments, it wasnt noisy though. The apartment was large enough for 2 adults and 2 children althought my 2 had to sleep on sofa beds. The staff were very friendly and helped us when we needed it. The free bus goes into town 3 times a day but if you miss it its about a 15 min walk and its a trek if it gets hot. Coming back its ...
