Longevity Health & Wellness Hotel - Adults Only

Straight away I liked the look and feel of the hotel inside and out. It was so fresh, clean, artistic looking and was smelling so lovely all of the time, as they constantly had oil burners lit with candles. When shown to my room, being a solo traveller, I found the view was a little disappointing and I could hear a dog barking (I couldn't hear it when the glass door was closed)...but as I'm a light sleeper, I decided to go to reception to ask if I could be moved. Instantly I was given an upgrade free of any cost to me and the new room was wonderful, with a great view. I was very grateful for the care and support of my concerns. Throughout the week I found the staff to be so friendly (reception, in the gym and at breakfast, cleaners and transfer drivers)...they were very approachable, smiley and tried their best to speak English, which I thought they did brilliantly. Being Welsh and a very chatty person they humoured me and conversed in conversation with me daily. I know others have disliked the glass wall to the bathroom, but being alone I loved it...it made the room brighter and I could see the tv or listen to music whilst in the shower. The rooms were tidied daily...the bathroom floor could look a little dirty at times or I'm unsure if the floor was marked and couldn't be wiped off. I loved the daily bottled water supplied, the fridge and free safe deposit box. I'm the sad one who likes to train on holiday and I found the kit and equipment in the gym to be pretty good...I had no problem creating a good workout each day. The spa I went to once, it was great but to be honest being on my own, I didn't stay in there long or have a treatment either, but others I chatted to said they had a great experience. My trip was only bed and breakfast and I have to say I LOVED the breakfasts...I'm a massive breakfast fan and the options were plentiful and healthy...you won't find a fry-up here, but that's good for me.

I loved the breakfasts options but I hope they become a little more creative with the buffet selections. The women who work in the spa and the clinic were extremely kind and helpful and made me feel comfortable during every appointment especially, Andrea. The location was perfect in terms of getting to the local hotspots and the beach. I love that the property has different activites on their schedule to keep guests focused on their wellness. I took the most amazing naps in this little chair in the spa waiting room and I love that they have a tea room to just relax. It´s important to create common areas for guests when dont want to be in their rooms. The hotel is filled with the smell of essential oils which without any effort put in me in a relaxed mood. Overrall I had the most relaxing and rejeuventating time at Longeveity and my stay there has helped me to fix my sleep schedule so I´m very grateful to have stayed there and will definitely becoming once a year! I came to Alvor to celebrate my birthday and It exceeded my expectations immensly. The hotel left me a delicious chocolate brownie and some champagne with one free treatment in the spa and it really put the cherry on top for my trip. As somene who doesn´t like to celebrate big on my birthdays, Longevity and the town of Alvor made this birthday feel oh so special.

The whole experience was delightful, and great value for money. Breakfast was a real treat and part of the room cost. Evening meals were delicate, high end cooking, and all the staff were courteous, pleasant and helpful. The Spa facilities were superb.

The hotel is very well located in Algarve, we booked for more than a week and we could easily travel in the region from this centric point. Also Alvor city center is reachable by foot and is quite nice with many restaurants. The hotel facilities were good, especially the gym which is very well equipped. The sauna as well was really nice, during our period it was not so crowded and we could book at the hours we wanted every day. The breakfast buffet is good and has a lot of choices. The room was nice and spacious. The staff was super friendly. Overall we recommend this hotel, we had a good stay there.
