Great hotel on the outskirts of Alvor but not far from the town centre and the beach is walkable. Lovely to have such a spacious apartment with the option of breakfast. Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Great to return home after a meal out in the evening to sit in the bar or on the terrace with a drink. Beautiful grounds with a pool. Would highly recommend and we will be returning.

Was upgraded to Pelican Alvor from another hotel, and was not disappointed! The staff went above and beyond to make our stay a pleasure! Lovely and tranquil, peaceful hotel, not overcrowded. Beautiful outdoor area, nice pool and it's area. Nice breakfast buffet. The apartment is clean and nice, with all the necessary furniture and nice terrace, overlooking the garden and the swimming pool and it has a sea view as well. Our air conditioning was very quiet.

I visited the pelican Alvor for a little break with my sister and cousin ( we are in our early/mis thirties). We were so impressed with this hotel, it looks super new and clean. We had a three bed apartment which was huge! lovely big outdoor space, comfy beds and two bathrooms.The staff are so friendly and we really enjoyed the lunches and cocktails. The location was great for us as was super quiet at the pool with lovely gardens surrounding, a short 10 min walk into alvor for our evening meals and a 15/20 min walk to the beach which for us was great. Would definitely return and will be recommending to friends and family.

Just back from a 10 night stay at Pelican. Straight off, the staff do an excellent job at representing the hotel. They are friendly and efficient.
We stayed in the 2 bed penthouse suite. The apartment was big and spacious. With a good level of furnishings. We over looked the pool and had sea views.
Location is good.. it is about a 10 minute walk to the pubs and restaurants in Alvor.
Some negatives we have is that while the penthouses advertise, on some sites, that they have a outdoor hottub these in fact are non operational and in truth left in a terrible state. The cover on ours is there years and had rotted through and left it very unsightly, so much so it put me off using the terrace.
There's a jacuzzi bath, again non operational.
The main air con unit was extremely noisy and is placed outside 4ft away from the head of the main bed. I was worried about disturbing the neighbours at night when it was on.
Overall it was a very pleasant stay but with a few obvious fixes it would have been even better.

2nd time staying here. Super comfortable room, good air con, friendly staff, impressively well stocked kitchen, lovely balcony. Food is really good - the best toasted sandwiches I've had! Shame they stopped serving food by the pool or allowing food by the pool. Would be useful to have drying hooks, more power outlets in the room, and a 2nd key for rooms with more than 1 person. 10 mins walk to Alvor town centre which is cute, and plenty of free hotel parking.
