this hotel is in a quiet location but only 5 mins walk (if that and on a good path) into Alvor centre where there is lots of restaurants and bars.
the Beach is private the rooms are spacious and airy
the hotel is not for the rowdy but for those who like to enjoy a good holiday without the slobs
the breakfast is good
plenty of shaded ...

Too many Flies on the food
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/04/07
Al in all the hotel is nice but the lack of food hygiene and by this I mean that the cold meats and puddings were not covered or protected in any way from the abundance of flies was not to be expected. I caught Salmonella last week when I was there and am suffering a terrible fate of sleepless nights and multiple lavatory trips. I would go again but never on a half board or full board basis again.

Our wonderful holiday in Alvor, Algarve
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/12/07
My boyfriend and I stayed at the Pestana Delfim Hotel for one week from the 26th July – 2nd August 2007 on a half-board basis.
Our room was fantastic. The room and the bathroom were very clean; both were very well designed and decorated. We each had our own sinks in the bathroom, and the bathtub/shower area even had its own fancy lighting. ...

Just back from a week in the Delfim with the family and will return. Lovely room, lovely location, all amenities close by, lifts working at all times. Basically no complaints.

shame about the food
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/13/07
The hotel is situated in an fine location overlooking the Bay of Lagos and just a few minutes stroll downhill to a picturesque cove and a magnificient beach. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and centrally heated. The staff are courteous and friendly and always available to assist. However if you enjoy your food book elsewhere!

Thoroughly enjoyed my holiday in this hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/27/06
Very comfortable room but you had to pay for a fridge.It sometimes took a while to get to your floor in the lifts as the hotel has 16 floors.The hotel is close to an excellent beach and only 10 minutes walk to the centre of Alvor.I would reccommend this hotel to anyone.

A perfect place for a relaxing holiday!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/20/06
The hotel itself is modern, clean and well set out, it is set in a great location which was a 5 minute walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk into Alvor village. The food in the hotel was excellent, all the waiters were very friendly and the head chef was delightful. We would love to go there again and would recommend this holiday to anyone looking for a relaxing break.
