Wyndham Residences Alvor Beach

Brilliant coastline

Alvor has its fair share of unbeatable beaches, but it’s the lagoon that really separates this place from the competition. It’s a shallow, deep-blue freshwater pool that’s adored by swimmers and kite surfers. And just the other side of a wooden boardwalk, sand dunes and rose-gold beaches unravel for miles.

Wine and dine

For a teeny seaside resort, Alvor’s brimming with places to eat and drink. Emerge from its cobbled heart and pick between two vibrant areas, one by the river and one by the sea. The delicious scent of freshly grilled fish fills the air and the sound of live music drifts out of late-night bars.
