Very nice hotel and friendly staff. Extremely comfortable room, silent location, with easy access (by car) to multiple beaches and cities.

Breakfast buffet always missed something, small variety, coffee machine always having a problem, orange juice you have to order - not directly available. I would likely recommend the hotel to swap from buffet to breakfast delivered to each table (assortment of bread, cold cuts, fruits, juice and coffee).

Everything was superb! I had the most wonderful time at Solar Alvura. It was perfect in every way; from the welcoming Tiago provided, my beautiful room with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in, the healthy and delicious food, the spa treatments ( thank you Pedro), the gardens, sitting by the beautiful fire in the evenings laughing and chatting. The pool area and terrace overlooking the orange grove are a delight too. Davio the donkey is a beautiful and friendly boy. I had so much fun and met the most wonderful people, those who worked at the hotel and guests. A wonderful, special haven with a very special Team headed up by Dr Eva. Thank you all 🙏 Dr Eva, Tiago, Claudia, Vesna, our chef and gardener behind the scenes.

Nothing….Only that I would want to stay longer!

As Solar Alvura is a health hotel the food is carefully planned and prepared to be healthy and tasty with lots of low calorie and low carb offers, although your calorie intake is lower than the normal you seldom feel hungry as it's three meals a day plus two snacks so there's plenty! The staff and the location are fantastic, the staff could not do enough for you and the Portuguese sunshine is always welcome of course! The hotel is top class with fantastic decor which makes you feel really relaxed with a fantastic feeling of serenity. Also there are activities such as yoga. aqua aerobics, indoor gym and guided walks, always something to do , plenty of downtime too to just relax with a nice herbal tea and your book ! I honestly loved it and would return in a heartbeat! About 20 minutes from Faro airport where you are collected and dropped off, ideal location, sitting on the terrace looking at the orange groves does wonders for all your health requirements ! As another guest said, Solar Alvura has a beautiful karma about it, I really wish Dr Ava every success in her dream, she has a great team around her and I think the hotels future will go from strength to strength ! Good luck !!

Just one point, a little kettle in each room would be handy , nice to just kick back with a tea or coffee , reading and just relaxing! This was suggested to Dr Ava and in fairness she does take any suggestions onboard....

When you walk through the entrance you are not only greeted by a warm welcome and idyllic atmosphere but the best feeling like you are visiting friends and family. You could not find a better place to fill the need for peace and quiet, catch up on a good book poolside, or enjoy a great conversation with the newest stranger that you are now fast friends with. It is an easy walk or car ride to conveniences but you truly lack for nothing when you're at Solar. It is a spa experience with a personal touch. The foods are fresh and varied but still available to cater to the more particular pallet and don't forget the coffee and in house bar. If you want to get away then this is the place to go.

Not a thing but the stay being too short.

Making a 4* hotel just requires some amenities. But a 4* experience requires dedication for details and great and highly professional staff. All of which was achieved. Especially the service level of the staff rivaled 5* hotels I have visited. My compliments

Details for improvement would be some loose tiles at the pool and matching umbrellas (this felt out of character given the eye for detail for the rest of the building). But none of these took away from the experience.

We didnt really have any pre-determined ideas about the hotel apart from that it was a bit remote and that some of the reviews were a little off putting but we loved every minute of our stay! The breakfasts were great and the staff were so helpful and friendly but the star of the show was Deevo! A beautiful character with a great heart :)

todo perfecto y Kevin el manager excelente

Where to begin - charming hotel with bags of character and incredible people. A true family business, Evan was such an amazing person. Emma was wonderful and Nothing was too much trouble for the team. We met Eva on the day we left and she was so kind and thoughtful also. Breakfast was always delicious and nutritious. We loved the late evening swims and they even made us a mini breakfast when we had to leave early for our flight. Highly recommend staying here. Can’t wait to go back for a yoga retreat!

Nothing to say.

The location is amazing and it’s so quiet! We even saw falling stars from the roof! The room was comfortable and the bed was heavenly! Very clean too. The breakfast was delicious and also had dinner at the property. Everything is 5* and we would happily return!

Nothing!

Lovely peaceful location breakfast over the orange grove. Super comfortable bed excellent bathroom and delicious food . We just went as “ usual “ tourists not on any health break and loved it the chef cooked us especially delicious not necessarily as healthy as other guests

I wouldnt say l didnt like it but it did take a bit of getting used to no menus just 2 or three verbal selections and l would have preferred menus especially at lunch when you only wanted a light bite rather than 3 courses. No complaints about the food though it was always really delicious and superb much better than our previous hotel in the area
