First class apartment
We have visited Alvor about 20 times and have stayed in lots of places. This apartment at Solrio is perfect in every respect. Location, size, comfort, cleanliness, facilities and the view were all excellent. Communication and helpfulness of the owners were great. Would love to stay again in the future.

Loved it.
The apartment is great for a lazy holiday, we needed it. My wife really enjoyed the front balcony for the morning sun and the rear balcony in the afternoon. The location is perfect too just two minutes walk from the centre of everything Alvor has to offer. Great pool with your own loungers to enjoy the pool if it gets too hot.The basement garage was a great extra also if you've hired a car. What a great relaxing holiday. Everything provided in the apartment was excellent. Lovely place hoping to be back next year.

Beautiful apartment in a fantastic location
Booking was straight forward and any questions were answered quickly. We were very lucky to be able to get into the apartment on arrival as we were very early. We have met Neil and Helen before and they were as friendly and professional as before. The small welcome pack was appreciated. The kitchen was well equipped. The whole apartment was spotlessly clean and very modern. It is great that the apartment has a balcony at the front and the back so both the morning and evening sun can be enjoyed. Great selection of TV channels for the children, catch-up TV also available. Wifi also available. There is a main pool, but also a separate children's pool. 4 sun beds for our private use were available by the pool. The apartment is in a fantastic location close to the town and harbour (5 min walk). It takes about 15 minutes to get to the long sandy beach.

Great Holiday
We visited Alvor in June this year and loved it. We stayed in Helen and Neil's apartment and thought it was perfect. The apartment is fab and in a great spot with a beautiful pool and gardens, the whole complex is very well maintained and unless you want to go tripping off the beaten track you really don't need a car. The supermarket is nearby (5 mins walk), the lovely village of Alvor is on your doorstep and the bus service is excellent. We went to Lagos for a trip out one day and loved it - 20 mins on the bus each way and about £8 each, return. There are some lovely restaurants in Alvor just a few of them are - Rucula (excellent but book about a week in advance), O'Alcaide (on a back street opposite the lovely bakers), Caravela (might be spelt wrong but lovely). We loved the boardwalk and walked along this and the beach for about 5 miles each morning, it was beautiful!! We chose to eat in for a few evenings as the apartment was so lovely and we watched the beautiful sun sets from the balcony. Don't forget to try the little custard tarts from the bakers and do visit the daily market in Alvor where you can get lovely fresh food. We will definitely return, thank you. Angela and Simon

Lovely apartment in a great location
This apartment is modern, simply but comfortably furnished. It has 2 balconies, one for morning sun and one for afternoon sun and sundowners - perfect. The facilities are all as described so we wanted for nothing. It is a mere stroll into the village to the many restaurants, and the river front, and only a 15 minute pleasant stroll to the most fantastic of beaches.

Very nice apartment in a perfect location
It was everything we expected. Nice apartment equipped with everything we needed. Two lovely balconies with a choice of sunshine or shade and a wonderful view from the back. Helen and Neil were there on time to meet us when we arrived and left a few essentials in the fridge to start our holiday which we appreciated. Overall this was a very nice apartment in a wonderful location. We would have no hesitation recommending this apartment as a perfect location for a visit to Alvor. Regards Gerry Walsh

Beautiful apartment.
We are just back from a 10 night stay in this beautiful apartment. We were met by Helen and shown around. This apartment is beautiful, modern, bright and spacious, with everything you could need. There was also a welcome pack which was greatly appreciated. 2 balconies which capture both morning sun and the evening sun set is amazing. An extra bonus is the english channels and sky sport. The location of the apartment is so convienent. A few minutes stroll into the village. If you have a car which e did( you don't need a car) the under ground garage is so convienent and easilly accessible. Would love to return again but these apartments are in high demand. Thanks again.

Just perfect!
We have just had the privilege of spending 10 days in this beautiful apartment. This wasn't our first visit to Alvor, but was our first visit to the Solrio and we just didn't want to come home! Having stayed in Neil & Helen's accommodation before we had no doubt that this apartment would be just as good, well it topped the scales - everything you needed was provided and as soon as you walk in the door you feel like you are at home. We don't actually think the photo's on this site do it justice, the views are to die for and we loved the peace & quiet also. As others have already said, you can follow the sun (if you wish) on the balconies. We enjoyed a morning cuppa on the front balcony and the afternoon sun and the most amazing sunsets from the larger balcony at the rear of the property. Neil very kindly collected & returned us to the airport, and showed us how everything worked in the apartment (including instructions via text when we messed the tv up!) The essential provisions provided for us on arrival were really appreciated (as was Neil's recommendation to the little bakery just down the road, perfect for your morning pastries!) Thank you again Neil & Helen, we kind of wish you didn't have such a great apartment as it may be easier to find availability to return in the very near future! We do hope though, to see you again in 2019, if not before! Clyde & Caroline Moon (& Mum!)

Fabulous apartment
This is one of the nicest apartments we have ever stayed in. It is very well appointed with dual aspect balconies for following all day sun. The views across to the river are beautiful and it's hard to believe you are just a few minutes walk from the town. The nearest supermarket is a five minute walk, as is the nearest restaurant. The pool and garden area were very well maintained though we didn't use either; need to come back in the summer for that! If you are looking for home from home accommodation that is in a world of its own but with everything on the doorstep, look no further.

Great Apartment, Great Location
We have had many holidays in Alvor and watched these apartments being built. They are everything we expected and more. Breakfast on the front balcony in the morning sun and in the evening sipping a glass of wine while watching the sun set over the estuary on the main balcony (and the sunsets really are breathtaking). The apartment itself is stylish, modern and has everything you need for a comfortable holiday. Allocated sun beds made for relaxing afternoons around the pool. And Alvor is a gem of place, the beach stretches for miles, the boardwalk to a sandy little island is well worth a walk and then there is the harbour and the village itself. There are plenty of shops, restaurants, bars and pubs (big thumbs up for the Crows Nest). Away from the busy areas there are lots of beautiful traditional streets, squares and several churches, well worth exploring. The apartment is within 5 minutes to the main square and 2 minutes to a supermarket for all you might need. Helen and Neil were most welcoming and made sure we had all the information we needed. They really are a lovely couple. To be able to make a tea or coffee or have a glass of wine due to the provision they left for us was very thoughtful and much appreciated. I cannot recommend the apartment and Alvor highly enough. We Will be back!

Fabulous views!!
When we arrived we were greeted by Neil and Helen who showed us around the beautiful apartment and were extremely welcoming and courteous, as had been the case in all my previous correspondence with them. The apartment is beautifully finished with all modern appliances and fittings but the pièce de résistance had to be the views from the 1st floor balcony at sunset, absolutely to die for! The apartment is less than 5 minutes walk to the centre of the village and ideally located near the large pingo doce supermarket which is great for stocking up on any essentials. Alvor itself is such a pretty village, sleepy during the day but a lovely buzz at night with loads of great bars and restaurants to choose from. We hope to be back again one day!!

Five star accommodation!
We have just returned from a fabulous holiday in beautiful Alvor. Warm welcome from Helen and Neil and introduced us to their beautiful apartment. The apartment was spotless, very spacious and fully equipped.It is in a perfect location, minutes from the supermarket, bars and restaurants.Just ten minutes walk to the beach. Car hire not necessary as transfer from the airport quite reasonable and you have everything you need on the doorstep! A small complex of just 30 apartments so nice and peaceful.Beautiful pool area with our own sun loungers.Alvor is beautiful not at all commercialised with some top restaurants and bars.We are returning very soon. Thanks Helen and Neil we had a fantastic holiday!!

Superb apartment*****
We have visited Alvor several times but could never get availability for these apartments. Sucess this holiday and we were not disappointed. The apartment is superbly furnished and spotlessly clean, plus secure entry to apartment complex via codes at gate and doors. Two lovely balconies so you could follow the sun. Beautiful sunsets over the estuary from the back balcony. The pool looked inviting but didnt take the plunge. The added bonus was the garage for our hire car, English tv channels and wi fi. Thanks for the milk,water, wine in the fridge plus the tea and coffee. Under the sink there was dishwasher tablets and washing powder. The apartment is a short walk down to the village and harbour. Alvor is a beautiful place with superb restaurants, cafes and bars. We had a wonderful relaxing holiday and will certainly return in the future. Thanks to Helen and Neil for allowing us to say in their apartment. Peg and Graham

Perfect place to stay in Alvor
We have been visiting Alvor for a number of years, and have been fortunate enough to stay at Solrio for the last three years. The apartments really can't be beaten. They are modern and spacious, in a great location, close to all amenities and yet very quiet. Helen and Neil provide excellent customer service and are both friendly and professional.
