Stayed in ground floor apartment with pool view ,apt was small for family of 4 but was ok apart from sofa bed which was bad sunbeds where more comfortable.
Snack bar was fine for quick snack ,chips with everything.Staff were good apart from some Polish or Russian chap with an attitude.
Location was ok 20 mins walk to strip stop at Coyote bar for cheap drink for everyone plus staff are nice also good chinese across road from Coyote. Would recommend going to old town most nights,better atmosphere about the place,would also recommend the Royal Orchid Thai restaurant-excellent best meal of holiday sorry we found it on last night.
Dont know much about entertainment as we went out every evening but what we did see didn`t look that great.
Overall Alfagar was ok and enjoyed holiday but would stay closer to old town next time.

These apartments were spacious and very clean.
The food was brilliant.
The location was great too only 5 euros to the strip by taxi.
All staff very helpful and friendly.
The mini market had everything you needed for a self catering holiday.
The entertainment was also great. One of the best nights I had was karaoke with Eileen (Thomson rep) who just can't sing she was great for a laugh and a good sport. A message to Eileen don't give up your day job (only kidding)
We will definitely be going back if they will have us.

These apartments were so clean, i couldn't find fault with them. The pool areas, bar and restaurant were exactly the same, spotless.
The bar staff were lovely guys, manuel, carlos, paul. very helpful and gave us a great laugh!
The entertainment wasn't the greatest, but with the strip 5 mins in a taxi away, we couldn't complain.
The food was great, good selection and served with great care and to a high standard.
Bearing in mind, we are two girls (18 and 20) wanting a quiet holiday with a bit of sun before the winter, we would definately go here again.

Hotel and sea view room were immaculate and very clean. Nothing was to much of a problem for them to deal with, any faults were dealt with before end of day.
Location approximately 15 minutes walk into the new town area and 40 minutes walk to the old town. Taxis easy and always there within 5 minutes. 5 euros to the new town and 6 to the old town.
Staff in reception, bar and restaurant were friendly and helpful at all times. Highly proffesional standards at reception, many speaking better English than us.
Entertainment for families was good, nice bar to start and finish the evening.
We would certainly visit again, with sea view room being a must just for the breathtaking views of the Atlantic ocean.

These are probably the cleanest apartments that we have ever stayed in.
Gardens were immaculate and so was the maid service.
Don't take an iron because we had one and an ironing board as well as a toaster, coffee machine and proper oven!!
The Walk to Santa Elulia took about 10 mins (watch out for the Coyote bar as its only 1 euro a pint) then another 5 mins to the Strip.
Entertainment was different every night but stays on until about 1am.
We asked to be moved because the first room was noisy but our next room was lovely and came with a great terrace and sea view.

I went to Portugal for the 13th time it was great.
It was the first time I had ever stayed in these apartments but they were great. Great staff they were very friendly especially Manuel, Carlos and Bruno.
Lovely pools and cliff views looking over the beach.
Lovely area especially the strip for teenagers Im 17 and I loved it especially Renos bar. I'm going back in April and I can't wait

Just as the brochure shows, beautiful place.
Good spacious & very clean apartments
Friendly staff
Food is nice enough - but a limited menu if you like trying local dishes.
Entertainment was fine but the crowd did not join in much except for us & a few Scots.
The price for tennis listed in the apartment was incorrect, so double check first.
The rock climb to the beach is not too bad, I found the road way much worse. The beach is nice & quiet.
I noticed the apartments were only a 3* but our brochure gave it a well deserved 4*.

Excelent appartments set on a cliff top with beach access. Two good size pools, Bar & restraunt. Our second visit to these appartments and the same friendly staff from last June. The on site restraunt serves good food at reasonable money.
The beach access is down a fair few (rickety) steps so perhaps not the best if not very able bodied, but the pools would be fine!
Well Worth a visit! Families & couples would be best suited.
The weather in June was fantastic (Both 2003 & 2004)
Highly Recommended
A fantastic set of appartments (Matt & Elaine will definately be back!!)

Fantastic place to stay with a family a little out of the way short taxi ride to the main strip.
Very nice staff, staff still there from 8years ago when we first stayed there.
Entertainment a little better this time around.
