The apartment was very cold when we arrived come to find out none of the three heat pumps worked. They brought us space heaters but it was still a very cold first night. Beds were absolutely terrible. Might as well slept on the floor that’s how hard they were. After two nights in those beds we can barely move when we woke up. We had to leave after two nights as our bodies could no longer stand the pain of sleeping on those beds. Mentioned it to host but it was pretty obvious that they weren’t willing to reimburse the rest of the trip or even suggest any solution to our issues. An absolute terrible experience for us.

Great Location with Amazing Views
The apartment is exactly as described, but what the photos don’t capture is the stunning view of Old Town, the ocean, the beach, and the sunset—it has to be one of the best in all of Albufeira. It’s about an 8-10 minute walk to the beach or Old Town via the escalator (or "electric stairs" as they're called in English). If you find the staircase near the pool entrance, it’s just a 6-minute walk, though a bit of a steep climb.We used the washer—which was handy—but note dryers are uncommon in Portugal, so drying clothes takes a bit of patience. That said, it worked out fine. The only minor issue was a strong mildew smell in the primary bathroom, which seems like an easy fix.Everything else was perfect, especially the hospitality and information Maria provided. This is clearly her special place, and she takes pride in welcoming guests—she met us on the first day with the key and tons of helpful tips.Albufeira was buzzing while we were there: lots of energy from the European soccer final and a music festival, mostly with people in their 20s and 30s. We had a blast with our 19- and 21-year-old kids. Thankfully, the apartment is quiet, so you can choose your own pace when it comes to late-night festivities.We only used the pool once—it’s nice, but getting the chairs from a dark, locked garage wasn’t really worth it. We preferred the quick 10-minute walk to the beach.All in all, we absolutely loved this place. You won’t regret booking this apartment!

Perfect holiday place!
Our family of 4 loved Maria Teresa's apartment. There was plenty of space and we found everything we needed. The view from the balcony is breathtaking... There is no need for a car as it is walkable distance to shops, restaurants, bars and the town. It's a steep climb back up to the apartment but the view is worth it! We used Uber to travel further afield, which was reasonably priced.Beach and pool stuff is all provided. Albufeira is a fantastic spot. We will be back!

Close to the beach
It is as advertised. Clean. Quaint. Gorgeous views. Large balcony. 10 min walk to the beach, restaurants, and night life. The sound from the night life drifts up to the apartment so that is something to consider when booking. It did not keep us awake. Host is easy to contact. Check in and check out process is easy. Thank you for a great stay

Had a great time
We stayed at this property at the beginning of March, so not the busy season. The host was very responsive and helpful. The arrival instructions seemed confusing when received but were spot on once we got there. The balcony and view were amazing. We had a few issues during our stay but, again, the host was very responsive and did everything she could to fix it immediately. If you plan on having someone use the pull out sofa I would tell her ahead of time so the blinds are there.

Nice location to explore Algarve East and West without changing hotels every night
Maria Teresa was so welcoming. She accommodated a last minute request to come a day early. She met us at the door and explained all the details of the apartment. The bowl with fresh Algarve oranges and breakfast rolls were delicious. We were in Algarve several days and the location was perfect to explore the sites we wanted to see without packing our bags and relocating each night. The ability to do laundry was a plus. The only down side was the noise from night clubs most of the night. By keeping the windows closed and A/C on we could block most of the noise. It would have been nice to enjoy the ocean breeze at night without the noise.

There was some obvious water damage and the main bathroom had a very unpleasant smell that sometimes wafted out into the living area.
The best thing about this property was the veranda (balcony), the seaview was incredible, but be prepared for the Meet Bar in Old Town that is loud and you will have to hear most of the night.
This apartment sleeps 6, but I would consider it more like 4, 2 adults and 2 small children. The single/twin beds are more for children then larger adults. Even the towels provided are small. If you have any mobility issues this is not the right place. The elevator doesn't work at all. And you have to go down 5 flights of stairs to get to the garage to drag loungera outside for the pool. That also means 5 flights of staira back up to your apartment. Overall the apartment was satisfactory, but I also slept on a couch for 6 nights as I am not a small women. It does pull out but it's not comfortable.
The communication with the host was great
This home is beautiful and spacious with an incredible view! Close to local amenities like a grocery store/ coffee shop/ restaurants and a short walk down to the beach/ main strip. The host was really kind and very responsive, we felt so welcome and would absolutely recommend to others

Everything was neat and tidy, the kitchen was well stocked, bathrooms very clean, with good modern fixtures, AC worked well. Enough parking outaide, we never had to use the indoor parking. Its walking distance to the main albufeira party zone and beach. We shopped at the supermarket continente...perfect for everything. (Much better than lidl). Albufeira is central to just about everything if you driving. If you are comfortable with a party vibe and atmosphere, this is the place for you.

The host was lovely and welcoming. She replied quickly to any questions/messages and took time to explain about the apartment.
The view was beautiful and the location was ideal - a (very) short walk to beach and a wide range of restaurants. The host was also kind enough to provide local recommendations and information to improve our stay.
The apartment was lovely, very clean and full of amenities. We would all love to stay again.
