About the owner
Hello, we are Liz & Ian and we have 2 small boys who keep us on our toes. We have owned this apartment for 3 years and love it here!! We bought it to keep our routes in Portugal as Liz's parents are Portuguese and live over there. We loved Portugal so much that we had to buy a place there.We had never been to Alvor before but we fell in love with it. Liz work's from home in Hertfordshire running her own beauty therapy business and Ian works for BT and has been there for about 25 years!! We are an active family and love it here to relax and chill out as often as we can. The kids live in the pool and we enjoy a cold glass of something whilst watching them from the terrace. BLISS!! Can't wait to go back and relax. Our aim is to make sure that you enjoy your holiday and relax as much as we do.
