Tivoli Alvor

Just leaving this beautiful hotel, rooms very comfortable and spacious. We had ground floor room which had a lovely garden with sun loungers. Buffet restaurant had plenty of choice just wish food could have been a bit warmer. Italian and Grill restaurants both very good. 5 minute train ride to Alvor which picks you up at hotel runs every hour. Beautiful fishing village just visits were ruined by the rain. My son who is 11 was a bit bored think they could do more activities around the pool maybe they do in the summer months. Not sure! Overall lovely place

Lovely hotel, would return. Very helpful staff. Relaxed a**osphere. Spacious, comfortable, very clean, well equipped rooms. Great swimming pools, especially the very large kids pool and the adults only pool. First time on an all inclusive package, very impressed by quality, variety and availability of food in all restaurants.

Great family trip - went with our 2yo who was kept entertained with the kids pool and playground. The hotel has great facilities, is in a great location (the beach nearby is beautiful), and the grounds are beautifully maintained. The staff were really friendly and couldn’t have been more helpful. The only thing that let down our stay was the delayed start to the transfer to the hotel and then a very drawn out transfer.

We visited Tivoli Alvor for the second time in May 2024 as a family with a toddler. I wanted to say thank you to the staff for making our holiday perfect. Very visited in September 2023 and both time were wonderful. Staff are wonderful and go the extra mile make your stay special. The hotel itself is beautiful and has something for everyone. The adults only area is tranquil with more going on for families at the main pools or children’s pool for entertainment, but still felt relaxed. May and September were perfect times for us in Alvor with the resort not being too busy and the weather being sunny and warm but not too hot. Food was lovely with lots of options. The rooms are lovely and modern. There is a lovely walk from the hotel over the bridge to the beach which is away from any roads or traffic. Alvor is a great base to explore the Algarve more broadly with so much to do. We hired a car so made use of the free parking at the hotel which made exploring and transfers to the airport easy. Thank you so much again to all staff at Tivoli Alvor for making our holiday wonderful and relaxing.

Very Nice resort ! Great for kids! Big thank you to Karla at the main restaurant for the welcome and the soup for the baby every morning! All employees were very kind with us and our son! And all spoke a perfect english, very easy to communicate Food was good and changed everyday A great stay!

Brilliant staff. Staff are friendly and helpful JOSI! In the buffet restaurant was a STAR!!!!!! She’s friendly and funny and very kind! The place was clean. Service was great. Happy overall. Italian was great and generous too. I found that the drinks were great quality too

Food: The quality of the food is good, but there's a limited selection and little variety in dishes. Fitness: The gym is small with very few machines. Room cleanliness: Not impressed. Service: The administrative service is very good. The service from waitstaff is good overall, but particularly exceptional during evening shifts, especially from servers from Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh who were notably humble and extra attentive. Overall, the hotel is modern and nice.

This is the second time we have visited the Tivoli Alvor. In June 23 and over the Easter break April 24. Check in went smoothly we arrived about 11ish and our room was not ready. We had some drinks then went for lunch at 12.30 by the time we did this room was ready. Golf buggy took us and cases to the room. We had a family deluxe room so kids had a separate room. Room is modern and comfortable. Everything you need. It was cleaned everyday water and toilet roll was replenished. We loved the food and the wine at buffet and restaurants. I did not have an issue with the heat of food if you do like your food really hot get something off the grill freshly cooked. Simples! My son loved the football pitch and was not off it. Pool area nice and towels provided. We easily got sunbeds but you get the selfish that put towels out all day and do not use. So limiting the choice for others. Pool was on colder side as it was April but as the weather improved kids stayed in longer. Staff do go round offering drinks although depends how busy the pool is you might not get offered as often. We did not go to the entertainment so cannot comment. I do notice they have listened to previous reviews and have made the kids disco earlier than when we visited in June. The beach is lovely and a short walk or you can walk along boardwalk to Alvor town. We used the hotels train a few times. Bar/restaurant service was a bit erratic but as the hotel got quieter at the end of week it improved. We had a great stay amazing food, beautiful hotel and nice staff. I do not understand the bad reviews and I am quite fussy. We will definitely return. Improvements - pool table, table tennis, bring back the self service juice machines in bar, remove the towels of people who have put down in the morning and have not returned for several hours.
