When is the best time to go to Alcaria Cova?

The best time to go to Alcaria Cova is during the shoulder seasons, specifically April to May and September to October, when the weather is pleasant and the crowds are smaller. During these months, the temperatures are comfortably warm, typically ranging from 20 to 25 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for exploring the natural beauty of the region. You'll find it's great for outdoor activities like hiking through the Serra do Caldeirão hills or enjoying a round of golf without the intense heat of summer. The countryside is particularly beautiful in spring with wildflowers in bloom, and in autumn, the light is often stunning for photography. For those looking for a quieter, more relaxed experience, avoiding the peak summer months of July and August is advisable. While the summer offers guaranteed sunshine and higher temperatures, the area can become quite busy with tourists, and accommodation prices tend to be at their highest.

Top Alcaria Cova Hotel Reviews

Dom Jose Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect. The location is ideal and the beach across the street is perfect. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Would recommend 1000 times over"

Vale do Lobo Resort

8/10 Good

"Overall, would recommend. A few things that could have made things even better - the resort is so huge, it can be confusing to figure out where everything is (there is a paper map provided during check in, but think an interactive/app would be much easier to navigate). It’s not always clear what is/isn’t included when staying at the resort (lots of things are discounted, but lots aren’t). The pool is a beach club. Not always suitable for children (we had our 2.5 year old with us and it could be a little rowdy in the afternoons/evenings. V quiet in the mornings. Also worth nothing that a DJ starts in the afternoon and the loud speakers are beside the kids pool making it unsuitable for young families in the afternoon/evening). The beach loungers are cash only - not a problem other than we didn’t know and had to trek back to our villa to get some as only had our phones for payment. Pristine accommodation with exceptional amenities. If returning, would get a villa with a pool next time. Parking meters at beach were broken in lots of spots so could be hard to make payment to avoid any fines. Staff in reception a little cold at times, but overall in the restaurants, beach club etc friendly and helpful. Prices reasonable for an upscale location with lots of choice for meals (of varying quality and choice). We didn’t use the shuttle as we had a rental car, and we were glad we had it as with a small child waiting up to 30 mins (as quoted at check in) would not have worked for us."
