Just returned home after a fantastic holiday. The apartments were spotless and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Very convenient location and a few minutes walk from an amazing beach. I would recommend these apartments to anyone

Our first time in Portugal and we chose Alvor due to excellent reviews. We found a late deal at the Dunas apartments and as other contributors have said it is basic but very clean and comfortable. The location of the apartments is first class as they are convenient for the beach and the many bars and restaurants in the centre... More

We stayed at the Dunas 21 – 28 April, 2013. When we arrived at the apartments - earlier than check in time - we were delighted to find our room was ready. What struck me first was just how clean the apartment was. It was light, airy and plenty big enough for just the two of us. Our room was... More

We spent the whole of January plus at the Dunas due to our first choice going out of business. Our travel company I'm sure to date still not aware we ended up there.

This is our second stay at Dunas self catering appartments in Alvor. We also stayed at the Dunas several years ago with our Children. Both have been good experiences. This time, we came in January 2013 for a 1 week bargain break with 'on-the beach' website, for a very good price. Alvor is as we remember it, a smaller, low... More

I stayed here from 29th october for 11 days. This was not my choice as my selected accomodation was closed down so was transferred to here. The appartment was big and clean but that was it. The appliances were all quite tacky. The cooker hob took at least 15 minutes to heat up and the oven had no racks so... More
