Best heated pools on Algarve / Costa de la Luz

Hi everyone, we've (2A + 1 Teen) booked a late holiday in April, flying into Faro (already booked) and I'm looking for recommendations for a hotel / aparthotels on the beach with heated pool and walking distance (30mins) from a reasonably lively town with a variety of restaurants. Wouldn't mind if it was a longer walk if the walk is pleasant / scenic.

Teen wants sun and relaxation. We're happy with that but would like some scenic strolls and 'sights' nearby in case weather isn't great.

Ideally we'd like two-room accommodation with our teen in their own bedroom or on a sofa bed in the living room. Otherwise two bedrooms.

Any recommendations from past experience? Wondering should we head east in the direction of Cadiz to get better weather?

Currently considering:

  • Belmar in Lagos
  • Pestana Praia in Alvor
  • Pestana Beach Villas in Alvor
  • Hotel Fuente in El Rompido

Also wondering could we find something suitable in Seville (without the beach obviously).
