The all-inclusive Portugal resort with three infinity swimming pools, kids adventure playground and nearby waterpark

This article describes a family's seven-night all-inclusive holiday experience at the Tivoli Alvor Algarve Resort in Portugal, booked through Jet2holidays. The resort is situated on a hill and features three tiered infinity swimming pools, alongside a dedicated fenced-off splash pool for younger children with mini-slides and a giant tipping bucket. The design allows parents to relax on sunbeds while supervising their children in the shallow water area. The resort also offers an adventure playground equipped with ziplines, an obstacle course, mini-golf, and a children's club called Plumo. The Plumo kids' club provides a variety of activities for children, including mini-pedal bikes, a trampoline, a bouncy castle, and a mini-disco, offering both active play and quieter options like painting and crafting in an air-conditioned space. Parents have the option to drop off their children at the club for three-hour sessions, allowing them to utilize adults-only facilities such as an infinity pool, gym, or spa. Beyond the pools and children's amenities, the resort offers recreational activities for all ages, including a free-to-use padel court and an artificial-grass football pitch. The accommodation consists of rooms designed with a luxurious feel, featuring glass-walled walk-in "rainforest" showers and large terraces or balconies. These rooms are suitable for a family of four with a double bed and a sofa-bed with a trundle. For larger families, Jet2holidays provides the option of two adjoining bedrooms, which is highlighted as a beneficial feature for bookings with multiple children who may require separate sleeping arrangements from parents. The Jet2holidays package includes a generous luggage allowance of 22kg per passenger plus 10kg of hand luggage, and additional conveniences such as Twilight Check-in at Stansted Airport for early flights, included airport transfers, and on-site staff support. The resort's location provides convenient access to local attractions. It is a ten-minute drive from the fishing village of Alvor, reachable via a free mini-train, offering seafood restaurants along the harbor and shops for souvenirs. The larger town of Portimão is also easily accessible by taxi. A significant advantage is the resort's proximity to Praia de Alvor, a beach with sand, sandstone rocks, and occasional fish restaurants, accessible by footbridge and a wooded path. A boardwalk along the beach leads to the Ria de Alvor Nature Reserve, where visitors can observe various birds, including white flamingos, which appear white due to their diet lacking the typical shrimp that give them a pink hue. Guests staying seven nights or more at the Tivoli Alvor receive complimentary entry to either Zoo de Lagos or the nearby Slide and Splash waterpark, with the hotel assisting with travel arrangements. The Zoo de Lagos, approximately 25 minutes away, features a range of animals such as birds, monkeys, lynxes, snakes, and penguins, including a walk-through bat enclosure. The all-inclusive dining options at the resort cater to diverse tastes, with a buffet offering themed dinners nightly, a poolside BBQ lunch at Salty's, and three à la carte restaurants (steakhouse, Italian, Mediterranean) that can be pre-booked and are included in the package. The overall experience emphasizes convenience, a wide array of activities, and quality amenities for a family holiday. #Portugal #FamilyHolidays #AllInclusiveResort #Jet2holidays #Algarve #KidsClub #InfinityPools #BeachAccess #Portugal #FamilyHolidays #AllInclusiveResort #Jet2holidays #Algarve #KidsClub #InfinityPools #BeachAccess
