Fantastic hotel in a gorgeous location
What a lovely relaxing hotel, we have just returned from 10 fabulous days. We stayed as a family of 5 with two interconnected rooms. Super comfy beds. The breakfasts were nice with a good selection. The pool area was lovely and relaxing, plenty of sun loungers throughout the day with no one reserving them which was great. Pool towels are available the from the hotel. The grounds are beautiful and the location on the beach is perfect. Short walk to Alvor. We would definitely recommend this hotel and are looking forward to returning.

Hotel recommendation
Excellent hotel with wonderful views from modern bedrooms and is on the beach. Within walking distance from the town. What made it extra special was 2 particular members of staff Cecila & Carla. These 2 ladies were so helpful, friendly & professional. They could tell me about the amenities in the hotel & the general area in detail & added to the quality of my stay. They are an asset to the hotel group & hopefully they can train/manage staff to be like them in the future.
Dom João II experience
Beautiful hotel. Very relaxing. Staff excellent. Special mention to Hardik who worked at the bar and restaurant. He was very pleasant and helpful. Went out of his way to help on several occasions
Love Alvor
From start to finish this place ia amzing. Friendly staff. Breakfast is a food lovers dream. Great variety. Staff are always cleaning. Spotless. Right next to the beach. You can walk to alvor. Lovely pool. Shop is close. No complaints here. Booked again for next year. It will be our 4th trip to dom jao.
