The property was lovely and clean, overlooked the pool. Kitchen was well equipped and rooms had Aircon. The WiFi never missed a beat..We where contacted to ensure of our arrival time so everything was prepared. Had the room cleaned a week into the holiday which was nice.Plenty of towels.Supermarket over the road and not too far from the main strip with lots of lovely bars and restaurants. Bus routes around local towns and cities or Ubers and taxis. Lovely long beach so take your pick of a cove or a wide open stretch for a swim

Casa Mateos

Casa Mateos is a beautifully presented and comfortable apartment in a great location. Quiet for a relaxing break but close to the town and supermarket. The pool was a great addition and during our stay we had the pool to ourselves. Cláudio was there to greet us and show us around making check-in really smooth. Would definitely recommend this apartment and hope to return next year.

Our stay in Alvor

Claudio is the best possible Property Manager..from the warm welcome on our arrival to the fond farewell when we left.. he was brilliant. The apartment is spotlessly clean and well equipped, and the last 4 days we were there the local noisy building work was coming to an end. The property is ideally situated for the town and coast, and the excellent local supermarket is only 200 metres away. We had an excellent 3 week holiday with mostly warm ,sunny days.

Comfortable apartment

A comfortable 2 bed apartment, owned by a very helpful and friendly family. The welcome was very warm, as was the apartment with the wood burning fire being lit, as well as a nice welcome pack of basic foods, fruit and wine. The living room was also nicely decorated for Xmas. The living areas and bedrooms are very nice and comfortable and the property has a good size balcony that gets sun in the afternoon. We thought the bathrooms let the property down some what. Old fashioned shower curtains rather than screens and a number of cracked tiles and holes in the walls where fittings had been removed. The owner had said he hoped the work on the adjoining building site would be finished by the time we arrived. Unfortunately that was not the case. At times it was rather noisy, especially if sitting on the balcony. I guess in 3 or 4 months most of the work should be finished. On Xmas eve the owner and his wife visited us and gave us a Portuguese Xmas Cake which was very kind. He also dealt very quickly when we had a problem with the hot water and called to say good bye just before we left.

Home from home

Casa Mateus is a beautiful apartment and Claudio and his team do everything in their power to make it as comfortable and homely as possible, even to having a lovely fire lit for our arrival. Unfortunately during our stay there was a lot of building activity at a number of sites in close proximity to the apartment and it was very noisy. I have to say that Claudio was very accommodating and we ended up having a very enjoyable holiday in Alvor and cant wait to go back! The location of the apartment is excellent, being a five minute walk into the town with its numerous restaurants, shops and bars and of course the Boardwalk and beach. The work should be finished soon and I would definitely go back to Alvor and Casa Mateus, if possible!

Great Apartment

The apartment is great - good size, good layout and well equipped. The pool is lovely and not busy. It's in a great position - slightly out of the centre so it is quiet but only a short walk (5 minutes) takes you into the thick of everything. 15 - 20 minute walk to the beach. There was building working on near the apartment when we were there and it was noisy at times but that will be finished soon so will not be an issue for long. Claudio was a great host too.

Very spacious comfortable apartment. Really well presented and kitted out. Fruit and wine welcoming basket was a lovely touch.Two minute walk into the town centre. Beach about five minutes further. Fifty yards from a great supermarket. A little noise from builders nearby at times but it’s temporary and we were out for most of the day in any case. Overall a great relaxing break Peter & Ailish

Fantastic Property

This is a fantastic property, immaculately clean and modern with everything you require for a short or long term stay, inclusive of toiletries. It is an easy walk to all restaurants, bars and shops. In addition a large supermarket is only a few minutes away. Claudio was so responsive to all email correspondence from the time of first booking, to assisting in letting us access the property to facilitate our early arrival time in Alvor. He had also left a welcome pack of fruit and wine which was much appreciated. We would highly recommend this spacious apartment however there was considerable building taking place adjacent to the property resulting in noise pollution from early morning until 6.00 pm, and we did not therefore use the balcony. We were also without running water on our last evening and morning of departure which transpired although it was throughout Alvor we had received no notification and we’re unable to make provision in purchasing additional bottled water as we thought it was a temporary problem in the apartment.
