Pestana Alvor Praia

This exclusive luxury-class hotel complex is surrounded by wonderfully-maintained gardens and lies above cliff-lined Praia dos Três Irmãos bay. The 7 kilometre-long fine sand beach can be reached by descending a flight of stairs and it is 1 km to the centre of Alvor, which features countless shopping and entertainment venues and to which there is a regular bus service. It is well worth paying a visit to Portimao that lies about 5 km away; Faro international airport is about 70 km away.
