Fantastic place for family trip
Our family had an amazing time. The location can’t be beat as you’re a few feet from a pool. The kids loved the water park / slides about 3 minutes from the room. They had lots of night time activities for the kids as well. The beach was a bit of a walk, lots of stairs, but that didn’t stop us (2 adults, 2 kids under 8 and a senior) from going every day. The place itself was perfect . Super clean, AC in every room and a good shower. Will definitely go back again.

Special place
We had a lovely week at Alfagar village. The apartment is large and spacious. It has everything you need and easily accommodates five adults with two large bedrooms and a pull out couch bed. the apartment has two balconies, front and back but realistically are not large enough for seating everyone at one time. Our only gripe would be that the fixtures and fittings need a refresh. Everything is very dated and one of the sofas needs replacing altogether. The balconies offer views of the well kept grounds but can be a little noisy in the evening due to proximity to kids play park and restaurant. The village itself is immaculate with lush tropical gardens all around. There are two large pools in the village and another two with splash park in the hotel grounds only a short walk away. All perfect for familes.The walks along the cliffs down to the beach are stunning. However the steps down are many and hard going for the less fit amongst us. The beach is gorgeous and has a couple of restaurants/bars for snacks and drinks. The walk to the main strip in the new town is quite a trek but Uber taxis are plenty and cheap. A special mention for the bougainvillia restaurant in the alfagar complex. The atmosphere is relaxed and the food is amazing.A kids playground is close by and entertains the children during courses. Prices are good too compared to other local restaurants. Their is a small overpriced supermarket on site or a spar five mins walk. Overall an excellent holiday.

Great holiday
We have just come back from our weeks stay at alfagar village and we absolutely loved it. After reading reviews of bad communication I was abit worried so I contacted the host directly who passed me mr Emmanuel’s number, I requested early check in and when I arrived at 11am I phoned mr Emmanuel who arrived within 15 minutes and took us down to the apartment. The apartment was very spacious much bigger than it looked on the pictures we were really happy with it. The complex it’s absolutely fantastic for children there are loads of pools and you can even use the hotel over the road which also has more stuff for kids slides splash park etc. The shop on site is a minutes walk from the apartment which sells everything you need and there is a restaurant and bar with a massive kids park on it. The new strip was around 20-30 mins walk and 3.75 euro in a taxi (Ubers come within 1 minute) and the old town was 4.75 euro in a taxi. We never got bored there is so much to do In albuferia and the beaches are lovley. The only downside I would say was there was no cleaner all week, we did have plenty of towels but when I go on holiday I like the beds to be changed and made and floors cleaned, shower cleaned, toilets cleaned and bins emptied this did not happen for our weeks stay.

Fantastic location & apartment
We were delighted with the property overall, was perfect for our family of 5, with 3 small kids. With a little bed manoeuvring, we fit all 3 kids in the 2nd bedroom comfortably. The apartment was brilliantly situated at Alfagar resort, which has lots of pools (not heated but fine in the sun!) and provides everything you need to hand for your holiday. Getting further afield was easy, we just used Bolt and Uber to arrange taxis. The apartment was well equipped, and clean and fresh on arrival. After calling Mr Emmanuel (phone number was sent to me a couple of days before to arrange check in), we had to wait about 30 mins for him to arrive and see us in, but it was no problem for us to get in earlier than the 2pm stated which was nice. Our only issue was a terrible smell coming from the main toilet, we did call to report it on day 2, but nothing was done throughout our 5 day stay. There was another small toilet which we used instead to avoid the smell. This was the only thing that might put us off using this place again, as everything else was perfect.

Smelly and noisy
Apartment is not in Santa Eulia as shown rather Alfagar, big difference. The apartment itself was not cleaned to any high standard and is very basic. It is tired and worn in all respects from kitchen to furniture. The two big issues for me with two young kids is the apartment was smelly and had a constant lingering smell of 'poo' from the vents in the main bathroom, it really stunk rotten. Plus the noise from surrounding area on site was ridiculous from non stop music and singing with deafening heavy bass meant we got very little sleep during our entire stay as every night the sounds would emanate into the early hours. Contact with the owner was not fruitful as attempts to communicate were informed. No checkout instructions on the last day nor did anyone meet us ... If you want peace and sleep do not book this apartment or resort: ALFAGAR is the name.

Gorgeous property, but frustrating communication
The resort property is amazing: plenty of pools to choose from, a mini market with all your basic needs just a minutes walk away, and easy access to one of the most beautiful beaches I've seen. The rental itself is just OK. It's a place to sleep, though not comfortably as the mattresses and pillows were pretty hard and worn. A real downside was the lack of communication with the host. We booked on May 20 for Sep 1-4. Aug 5 I had not heard from this owner (while I HAD from our hosts in Porto and Lisbon), so I messaged through VRBO. By Aug 29 I still had not gotten a response, nor any type of check-in directions, so I messaged again. I gave it 24 hours, and not getting any response still, I called VRBO. They put me on hold and tried to contact the host, but had to leave a message. They instructed us to just go the property as planned, and if we could not get in, to call VRBO back, as they have a 100% booking guarantee. So we boarded the train and headed to Albufeira, not sure if we'd even have a place to stay once we got there. The listing states that "Santa Eulalia" is the location of the rental, so we took an Uber there. That resort did not have any connection to this owner or property, but did tell us he thought we were looking for a place further down the road (there's another Santa Eulalia perhaps half a mile away). At that point, I tried the host myself with the contact info on VRBO and luckily got through. She gave me the property manager's contact info and speaking to him, we were guided another mile down the road to Alfagar, which is where the property is actually located. We had to wait 30 minutes or so while the rental was readied (we arrived around 7pm, so I'm not sure why it was not ready, or why we were not contacted about our expected arrival time like the previous VRBO hosts have done). In the end, it got worked out, and when I asked for an extra half hour of check out time, it was granted. The property manager had a family emergency the day of our arrival, and we are understanding that things happen. But being so far from home, and not knowing if we would have a roof over our heads for the last leg of our journey was very stressful. Overall, we do not regret our choice, as again, the location itself was beautiful. If the beds/pillows could be improved, and communication more clear, we would recommend.

Everything about the apartment and the resort in general was perfect. The apartment was spotless and a good size with everything you need. The owner, Amanda and resort host Emanuel answered all our questions before arrival. The resort again was spotless, pools and gardens were very clean. Site was next to the beach had numerous swimming pools, including an in-door one (which was great to keep adults and children happy due to outdoor water not warming up yet by early April), sports, play facilities and free children’s club. Different bars had different entertainment options at different times. Had meal in Bouganvilla Restaurant, meal was fantastic and good value. Even in non happy hour period large beer was 3€. I will definitely re-book the same apartment for 2020.
