ペスターナ ブルー アルヴォール ビーチ - オールインクルーシブ ホテル

The hotel was okay to stay in but way too overpriced especially because they’re not really a five star hotel in my opinion. Simple amenities such as shampoo, bathrobes, slippers and lotion are not provided for a five star hotel. I didn’t get help from the Porter to take my bags etc. I like that it’s all inclusive and it’s so convenient to eat at the hotel however the food could have been fresher. The pools were amazing and the hotel is very close to the beach which is good. Getting around is a headache unless you hire a car, it would take me forever to get an Uber. Not the hotels fault obviously but just something to note. The hotel is so huge that the shared lift would take forever and unfortunately can’t choose which one to take as the lift chooses the floor automatically . While it was a good stay I don’t know if I would stay here again because of my expectations of an all inclusive 5star hotel. Also make sure to go watch the sunset by the beach, absolutely breathtaking.

Attended Kai stretch class and the aqua aerobics this morning. Both classes well thought out and good fun.

My first visit to this hotel was over 30 years ago. I am pretty sure the same tiles were on the walls by the dining room back then! Not a criticism, just an observation. We stayed in this hotel last year, and had such a lovely week, we returned this year, but earlier in the season. It didn't start too well as despite the hotel being quiet, our room wasn't ready. The official check in time is 3pm. Our luggage was put away securely and we were free to use the hotel facilities. Initially we sat under cover, had a drink and then, because it was chilly in the shade, we moved out of it! A mistake! We were there less than 2 hours before we got sun burned - not the hotels fault of course, but a reminder to pack sun cream in hand luggage! Reception had told us they would ring once the room was ready, they didn't. Had they rung we would not have been hanging around quite so long. We booked a sea view and our room on the 12th floor was disappointing because it was a side view of the sea really, not as lovely as the previous year, but we did get some afternoon sun. Last year we enjoyed the Surf & Turf restaurant and the Italian restaurant in the hotel. They required booking in advance. This time we were told that they weren't open as it was low season which was disappointing. I think it was misleading to read the additional restaurants timings are variable, they aren't variable in low season, they are none existent, just state specifically when they are closed so that people know what to expect. I think there were supposed to be 2 themed nights in the restaurant, but honestly, I didn't notice any difference. One day we found ourselves on the 12th floor with no lifts working. We asked one of the housekeeping staff, who didn't understand us, and who seemed equally surprised they weren't working and tried our electronic key and her own. We ended up walking down 12 flights, which was admittedly much better than walking up 12 flights! Once in Reception, other people said they had been told this was a scheduled event and all guests should have had a letter in their room informing us this would happen. No one we spoke to, including the housekeeping lady knew it was happening. Not sure how long the lifts were out, it may have been minutes and we were just unlucky with our timing. Not a single sardine was seen all week, not a Portuguese tart! I know Sardine season hadn't started yet, but tinned sardines on the salad bar would have been good! I see some people complain about the food, but honestly, you don't go to an all inclusive hotel and expect fine dining. You won't go hungry that's for sure. The staff are all lovely, and enthusiastic! Whatever they pay the animation team, it's not enough, give them a pay rise. Not being fans of scheduled "fun" we escaped the hotel for most of the day just to avoid being entertained! Maybe we could agree that if you are around the pool, you are fair game, if you are on the grass, you don't get disturbed!! Despi

The rooms were very good and checked everyday. All staff were kind and helpful. Allot of effort was made to make you feel welcome.

The hotel has great location with a path leading straight down to Alvor beach. There is a boardwalk that runs alongside the beach allowing for a scenic 20minute stroll into Alvor town. The hotel grounds are nicely landscaped and we enjoyed the outdoor activities including Padel and mini golf. There’s also an adults only infinity pool in a more secluded spot. The room was spacious with a large balcony, comfortable beds and soft crisp sheets. A large TV in the room had ample international channels. The bathroom was spacious with a shower/ bath enclosure which seems to be standard. There is food available all day as breakfast runs into brunch then lunch. The main restaurant closes 2.30pm until dinner at 630pm. And you can have snacks at the pool bar during this period. On The lower around level there is a games area and an indoor pool with sauna and steam room. Children can use the pool. The entertainment team provide is a kids club and usually some games eg pétanque in the afternoon. We enjoyed the history walk into Alvor with Theresa who is friendly, relaxed and knowledgeable of the area. Shout out to Ruben in the coral bar who makes a great Caipirinja.

Lovely hotel. Comfortable rooms and great location to explore the Algarve. Really nice indoor pool for when the weather isn’t great. Lovely outdoor pools but not been warm enough to use so cannot comment further Food was nice but a little boring. Animation team are amazing! They totally make the holiday what it is- without them it would be nothing. Theresa is so funny and is the life of the party. She is great for breaking the ice. She always makes people feel welcome and she is great to talk to. Jonathan and Miguel are a great double act and are fun during games etc

Excellent hotel please don’t listen to negative reviews. Very clean, staff are friendly.lots of choice in buffets Pools lovely our favourite was the infinity pool. Lots of sun beds. 5min walk to beach lovely sandy beach with beautiful ocean to swim in. Always lots of activities going on in hotel. Family orientated.

We stayed at the beginning of June and had a lovely time. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the staff were very friendly. The animation team were amazing and kept both children and adults entertained daily. The only thing we would say that there was lack of choice at the evening meal but always managed to enjoy something. Our room was large with a beautiful sea view. Please don't listen to the negative reviews as we would definitely return to this hotel.
