"Overall we had a great stay. The food and drink options were wonderful and up there with the best All Inclusive options we've had. A few things missing - margaritas missing from the cocktail menu and maple syrup for waffles/pancakes seem like obvious additions but that is nit-picking as options were plentiful and tasty and cocktails great quality. Staff overall were great; friendly and helpful. Special thank you to Carlos, who was the most wonderful masseuse and offered tips on stretches to...

Frequently asked questions

How much does a beach hotel in Alvor cost?

Find the best deals by being flexible with your dates, and sort search results by "Price: low to high" for our cheapest rates.
Which area of Alvor is best to stay in for beaches?
For unparalleled beach access, the best area to stay in Alvor is along the stretch of coast directly adjoining Praia do Alvor.

This area is primarily made up of hotels and resorts that are either right on the beach or just a short walk away. You'll find yourself steps from the golden sands and the Atlantic Ocean, with many establishments offering direct access to the beach. The surroundings are generally quiet, focusing on relaxation and sea views, with boardwalks that allow for pleasant strolls along the coastline.

Couples seeking a relaxing beach holiday will find this area ideal. You can wake up and be on the sand within minutes, enjoy long walks along the shore, or simply unwind by the sea. Many places here offer amenities like outdoor pools and terraces with ocean vistas, great for a peaceful escape.

For families with children, staying near Praia do Alvor offers maximum convenience. The ease of access to the beach means less hassle with carrying beach gear, and kids can enjoy the sand and sea without long commutes.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Alvor?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Alvor is during the summer months, particularly July and August. The weather is glorious, with temperatures often reaching the high 20s and sometimes even into the low 30s, great for enjoying the golden sands and refreshing Atlantic waters.

During this vibrant period, you'll find the beaches bustling with activity, and the town alive with holidaymakers. It's an excellent time for all sorts of water sports, from paddleboarding to boat trips along the coast. Families will particularly appreciate this time, as the warm sea temperatures and sunny days are ideal for children to play safely on the beach.

For a slightly different, yet equally appealing, experience, June is a fantastic alternative. The weather is still beautifully warm, with temperatures generally in the mid-20s, making it very comfortable for sunbathing and swimming.
How can I save on a beach hotel in Alvor with Expedia?
One Key™ —Expedia's free travel rewards programme—gives you instant access to perks and Member Prices on Alvor beach hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. But, if you're feeling spontaneous, check out the last-minute deals.



*Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
What beach activities should we do in Alvor?
The best beach activities to do in Alvor are exploring the stunning rock formations and caves, and enjoying the expansive sandy beaches.

For couples looking for a romantic and picturesque experience, a boat trip from Alvor harbour to explore the grottoes and sea caves around Ponta da Piedade is highly recommended. These tours often allow you to swim in secluded coves and see the dramatic cliffs up close, offering fantastic photo opportunities. Many operators offer private or small-group tours for a more intimate experience.

Families will love spending time on Praia de Alvor, the main beach. It's a vast expanse of golden sand, great for building sandcastles, playing beach games, and swimming in the calm waters. There are usually sun loungers and parasols available to hire, and several beachside restaurants offer convenient lunch options and refreshments.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Alvor as a package?
Booking a beach hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking a beach vacation package well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Alvor for you.
