“Excellent stay, wish we were back there!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011

We initially booked to stay at the Pestana Dom Jaoe II and on arrival was told we were upgraded to the Delfim. We were a bit apprehensive as I like to check out hotels before staying at them but all fears subsided as we arrived.
The hotel is a high rise (never stayed in one before as I thought they were tacky and a bit Benidormish, I was wrong).
We stayed in room 301 which was spacious clean and had a lovely view over the pool and sea.
It was all inclusive and I must say the food was the best part of the whole stay for us (a couple in our 20's and a 2 year old girl). Breakfast was great, full english if you wanted, porridge , endless choice of cereals and full continental were on offer.
Lunch and dinner you were always spoilt for choice and the cakes were gorgeous!
The hotel was a short 5 mins stroll to the beautiful beach and we took a taxi most days into Alvor which cost about 4 euros each way, (it is easy walking distance but with a 2 year old and no pushchair we just got a taxi)
We went on several excursions organised through the hotel, plenty of leaflets on the desk at reception.
Staff really helpful and friendly, especially the singers in the main bar with my little girl.
All in all I wish I could move this hotel to wherever we holiday next year!

“The end of the season stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2011

people found this review helpful

We have just return from our holiday in Alvor. Delfim hotel is of high quality and beatifully situated. All people working in this hotel were very nice and helpful. Because it was the end of the season the water in our outdoor swimming pool was very cold and a lot of floating leaves and other stuff deteriorated the quality of swimming. It was a very quiet place and we enjoyed our stay despite very windy and even stormy season.

“Suprisingly good having read the reviews here.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

people found this review helpful

Pleasantly suprised by this high rise hotel. The room we had on the 11th floor was spacious and comfortable with a stunning sea view. There is a large swimming pool and an easy walk to the beach. There is a swim up bar at the pool but this was closed this week because I guess it is the winter season. Buffet breakfast was fine but we did not eat other hotel meals because there are so many beach front bars and restaurants in the area (two or three within walking distance) that it seemed a shame to eat indoors. We enjoyed our stay.

Room Tip: Make sure you get a sea view and request one away from the lift shafts. All carpetted so you don...

My wife,sister-in-law and her partner spent a very enjoyable week at the hotel from September 30th,to October 7th.The food on the all inclusive basis was superb with plenty of choice while we happened to be there when an Irish music week was also at the hotel which added to the enjoyment.May i also compliment the assistant manageress who was very pleasant and was on hand at all times to oblige everyone.

“Good hotel, but let down by the food”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed at this hotel with four other members of our family and our 1 year old grandson for a short break in mid September. The hotel was very good and we were delighed by the suites, very spacious with fantastic views of the beach and sea. The grounds were excellent and only a short walk to beautiful coves. The evening entertainment could have been better, in fact it was pretty non existent and the food was a bit of a let down but neither spoilt our stay. The waiters in the restaurant were always helpful and happy to have a chat with the baby. I would recommend this hotel to others although do be prepared it may be a little difficult if you have a fussy eater.
