About this property

Ela's Terrace

We are a family run business offering holiday accommodation in the picturesque fishing village of Alvor. Situated in one of the most distinct locations in the Algarve, Alvor is a quiet village where families and couples will find a guaranteed relaxing time and a very good value for money holiday.

A good choice of cafes and restaurants is available within easy reach in Alvor. Alternatively, a short 15 minutes drive can take you to the bustling Rocha beach (Praia da Rocha) in case you fancy a bit more action or even a good night out.

Alvor, as everywhere else in the Algarve, is busy during the summer months but you will still be able to find that hidden beach spot if you want to. Your hosts António and Flora will be more than happy to show you where to find the best unspoiled and hidden spots. Flora will also make sure that you feel comfortable from the very moment you set foot at our accommodation, with her warm welcome and even a little delicious treat that will get you in the right mood for the holiday ahead. António will make sure that the apartment is at its best when you arrive and he will be the one to call if anything needs fixing.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

An Algarve gem

Gorgeous week at Ela’s Terrace. A little gem of a place and just as described - well perhaps better than the description. Spotlessly clean and equipped with everything you need. Really easy to walk in to Alvor. Bruno and Ela were super helpful and communication was perfect.

Great apartment with excellent hosts

Just back from a great stay in Alvor and Bruno and Ela's Apartment. Spotlessly clean, with great outdoor space. Bruno and Ela were perfect hosts with great communication. Good contact before and during our stay. No problems whatsoever and would highly recommend the apartment. Thanks to you both, and the beers were much appreciated on our arrival.
