James was pleasant and easy to deal with. Arranged transport from the airport for us. Upon arrival the view was stunning…world class for sure. Apartment was nice and everything we needed was there. However if you’re looking for peace and quiet Old Town is not the place. The thumping of the very loud music broke the idillic scene from 4pm till late every night. If you love to party this is the spot.

Very nice property, but I found the power went out four or five times in the month we were there. Twice for a few hours and the other times for maybe an hour or so. They were always very good to fix it, but definitely is a problem with the electricity. Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed the spot.

Beautiful view

This apartment is in a great location to experience Albufeira. The beach and Old Town are within easy walking distance. We could hear the music from Old Town but with windows closed we had no problem with sleep. The view from the large balcony is spectacular! The owner and Debbie made our stay even better when new mattresses were quickly supplied, upon our concern with the old uncomfortable ones. Excellent apartment in an excellent location!

We had 2 weeks of coastal disturbances but no one contols the weather, last week perfect. Apt was lovely to settle into when it rained close to everything when we were out and about. It had everything we needed, good binder with info. Easy access. The only down side was bar music from below, once doors closed not a bother. We'd recommend it for a stay.

Awesome Views!

This flat was perfect for us-and the view clinched it for us when we decided to book. Clean and very spacious - appears just as photos. Yes, as others wrote, the music noise from town does come up the hill into the wee hours. We are seniors and decided this comes with the territory since we wanted to stay here, and it made us feel young again even listening from the nice big deck! The location is close to beach, town, groceries and taxi. Easy contactless check in and out. Next time we would stay longer and rent a car to explore out of our normal walking zone. Great place and it was a great stay!

Lovely Holiday

The accommodation was exactly as we were hoping it would be. Great communication with everyone concerned which made the arrangements of everything so easy and straight forward. Really enjoyed the holiday. If I had to make a criticism the noise from the old town strip was very loud and went on to 4.00am in the morning. My friend and I would of liked to have sat out on the wonderful balcony terrace before bedtime admiring the fantastic view but the volume of noise was a bit too much. Thank you James for a enjoyable holiday the apartment is really lovely. Also thank you Perry for all your help. Everything was very much appreciated.

Great Stay

This property is an a location that gives you a gorgeous view of Old Town and the beach. You get to enjoy the sunshine morning till night. You are in easy walking distance ( minutes ) to the both the beach and the dozens of restaurants and shops of Old Town. Also easy walking distance to grocery supermarket , restaurants , shops , and hotels away from Old Town. The unit itself is clean and well equipped. Kitchen is relatively updated as is the bathroom , which has a good shower. This is a roomy unit , with lots of additional room on the patio . We felt safe and secure and comfortable in this property. We would suggest that the living room furniture could use a refresh as some pieces are looking a bit tired. The property manger was very responsive and attentive. Overall, we had a great stay.

Fabulous view

The apartment is lovely, with spectacular views over the sea and Old Town from up high, in a quiet residential neighbourhood. We didn’t use our hire car once during our week there as you can walk down to the beach and town via the escalators in 10 minutes and the little Spar is just a 5 minute walk down the hill, with a big Aldi and Lidl a 15 minute walk away. There are enough local bars and restaurants to avoid the overpriced and noisy Old Town. We did lovely walks, one through the town to the marina to the right and one along the beach and over the cliffs to the New Town to the left. Albufeira is very hilly so if you’re not good at walking maybe this isn’t the place for you and if you’re looking for peace and quiet at night this is definitely not the place for you as the loud music from town goes on until 4am, take earplugs for sleeping! Overall we had a lovely lazy week and would certainly recommend the apartment.

Der Empfang durch Perry war herzlich und sehr angenehm, wir haben uns sofort willkommen gefühlt. Geschäfte, Restaurants und der Strand sind zu Fuß erreichbar, was den Aufenthalt besonders entspannt macht. Auch als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge ist die Lage ideal.
