We left a day early because there was a constant, terrible, nauseating smell. When we reported this to the agent she said it is from the drain being blocked by the cleaner. If it was that simple and a known problem it should have been remedied before our arrival. The property is nice but we could not live with the sewerage like smell any longer.

Everything was fantastic!Note: there was a minor odour coming from the main bathroom plumbing that should be looked into. It did not hamper our stay, however.

Very happy with our stay. Unit was spacious and for six of us. We very much enjoyed the deck and spend each night on it drinking port and overlooking the city. The street in front of the unit is a very steep grade so be warned. It was not a problem for us. We would highly recommend.

family holiday

lovely house great location. Initially we felt the walk upto the house was going to be a problem as we’re all a bit old!!. However we soon found shortcuts and stairs to the town square which definitely made it easier. The house was well equipped. Just a few things we think would make it even better. There is a lack of mirrors. No mirrors in any of the bedrooms or anywhere in the house apart from two small mirrors in the shower rooms. This was problem when us girls are trying to apply make up and dry hair as had to wait until people finished showering to use bathroom mirrors. We also had an incident with the washing machine which flooded the ground floor. Fortunately we spotted it before it ruined our belongings. We spent over an hour mopping and drying the floors. One of the bedrooms got flooded.However we managed to prevent any major damage by removing all our stuff like suitcases shoes and other items fromthe room and dried them out on the roof terrace. About two hours later someone came to check the washing machine and told us not to use it for the remainder of our stay. This was a bit of an inconvenience. However, we loved the house and had a lovely holiday and would definitely r give it 5. stars

Algarve Dream

Can’t imagine a better place or a better view in all of the Algarve! We could see the town and the beach from both the second and third levels of the home. A quick 4 minute walk down to the beach and all the restaurants. I would t want to stay anywhere else. We will surely return.

Beautiful

Fabulous town house with 3 floors. Bedrooms on the lower floor & 2 bathrooms. Up the stairs to a lovely open plan kitchen/diner which was really well equipped. The upper floor was a lovely roof terrace with stunning views out to the beach. We had 3 kids with us, 12, 10 & 8. 2 flights of stairs in the place so might be a bit much for small kids or people with mobility issues. Excellent location, only 3 min walk to the square. We had a fabulous time here. Elite rentals were excellent to deal with

Wonderful property

What a beautiful location, high above the town, with views out to the sea! But.. to get to that beautiful location there is a large hill to climb, just keep in mind...the view and villa are well worth it! ( We are 4- 70 plus year olds, but we made it) The villa was well equipped with towels, kitchen appliances, etc. The beds were comfy, wifi was spotty, the washing machine kept tripping the power, and no dryer except mother nature's sun, but again..that view makes it all worthwhile! Had a fabulous 6 day stay!
