Former fishing village turned upmarket resort town, Alvor is a luxurious destination for international property buyers.

The beaches bring so many to Alvor as they’re truly second-to-none. The calm, long sandy beaches are complemented by the crystal-clear waters of the Med, making it a serene backdrop for the small town’s 6,000 residents.

In general, Alvor is a quiet, laid-back town that’s well-looked after and has all amenities on its doorstep. If you’re looking to invest in property or buy a holiday home, Alvor is a charming choice as it has all the things you’ll need, is close to the beach and not far from the Algarve’s championship golf courses. 

Alvor spans from the beachfront, all the way in towards the Penina Golf resort, just past Valiinhos. There’s a wide variety of properties available in Alvor that range from luxurious multi-bedroom detached villas with pools, to land plots and townhouses near the beach.

While there is a huge market for luxury properties for sale in Alvor, there is also a range of more affordable properties that include studio and one-to-two-bedroom apartments, two-storey townhouses and detached villas.

At the lower end of the market, you can get a home in Alvor for just over €150,000 – usually a studio or one-bedroom apartment. Key-ready homes start at £250,000 and there are a range of properties in Alvor in between that could use a little renovation or TLC to be brought up to scratch.
