What a gem!

This was an amazing property to stay at. The communication with the host was immediate and they were able to help with all of our needs. The beds were comfortable, rooms were a great size, and the location of the property is a short 15 minute walk to the beach and a small shopping Center. Loved staying here!

Altura stay

Miriam assisted immediately via email any of our concerns! Ana, who managed the property was wonderful and accommodating! Kitchen was fully stocked with plates, bowls, silverware, and request for a drip coffee maker was fulfilled. We enjoyed the beaches immensely, a 15 minute walk from the house! This is a small village with very little open in February but we found two other villages close by for restaurants.

Stunning Home - Very Clean, Very Beautiful

Miriam’s home couldn’t be more beautiful. Had everything you could want and more. Only drawback is that it is a bit of a drive to many of the Algarve towns and Altura, while charming and cute, did not offer much to do. This is not a complaint, just something to consider if you are looking for more liveliness. Mirian was wonderful and very accommodating. Truly loved this property and would gladly go back if the opportunity presented itself. Highly recommended!

Pretty good overall

Property excellent, well equipped and clean. Neighbourhood very noisy, close to fast moving traffic and various dogs barking / whining from 0600 and again late at night at 0100. Directions to property very poor, we spent 40 minutes trying to find it on arrival.

Golf and Explore holiday

We really liked the accommodations, felt they were as portrayed, nice yard etc. The location was a disappointment, loud motorcycles almost nightly, no regard for the neighborhood which is a little rundown. All in all we had a good time but would’ve stay at that location again. Another thing, be very careful with car rentals, we rented from Avis at the Faro airport, they are dishonest and trying to get two thousand dollars for two alleged chips in our windshield. TBD!

Erholung mit Wohlfühlfaktor

Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Wohnung hat uns sehr gefallen. Moderner Landhausstil mit schönen Dekoelementen. Die Küche war perfekt eingerichtet und bestückt. Der kleine Garten wunderschön zum Frühstücken oder am Abend mit einem Glas Wein…Wir können die Unterkunft mit bestem Gefühl weiter empfehlen. Im Ort gibt es mehrere Supermärkte und Gaststätten. Zum Strand sind wir ca. 20 Minuten zu Fuß gegangen.
