    We had the most lovely time at the apartment! Home Holidays were always so responsive and helpful, going above and beyond with our transfers - our transfer waited for us as the queues at arrivals made us late and yet they waited for us for 45 mins! Apartment was so clean, sheets and towels smelled wonderful, everything you needed in the kitchen including such a cute welcome pack of some cleaning products and sachets of tea and coffee which always really helps! A lovely quiet area compared to Albufeira which is what we wanted, yet lovely restaurants in walking distance, as well as 2 great beaches also a 5 minute walk! Pool was cold but as to be expected for the time of year, I’m sure in hot hot summer it’s needed!! Kids didn’t mind though! The café by the pool is cute and has some nice snacks and meals, staff are friendly and kind. Thank you for a great holiday!

    Great location and apartment

    The property was very nice, a few little glitches. The hot water is problematic as in many places in Portugal. They are aware and are quick to fix things.This is a 2nd floor apartment, 17 stairs to walk up, then the bedrooms are up another flight. From the balcony you can see the ocean. The beds are a little firm but we managed for 7 weeks!The kitchen is well equipped, we are in often, but there are lots of good restaurants very close.It is about 10 minutes to Albufeira by car. Unless you are super fit, do not try to walk it, there's giant hills to go up and down. Once in the city there's lots of walking, all cobblestone (which are everywhere in Portugal), careful if you are unsteady on you feet. This location is perfect for local sights, along the coastline or boat cruises. There's many hiking trails close by too.There are many other towns 1/2 to a hour away for day trips.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be returning.down.walk up
