We’ve just returned form a wonderful relaxing 10 days from beautiful Sou Rafael, The apartment didn’t disappoint, it was clean comfortable and has everything we needed for our stay, There’s a lovely pool a short walk through the complex with ample beds and space ( I can imagine it gets quite busy in non Covid times), the beach is only a 5 min walk away and is absolutely stunning, but was very crowded. We hired a car which we found essential as we could visit other larger beaches which gave us more space, and made access to the local bigger supermarkets (Aldi/ Lidl) nice and easy, we also had a day out to a water park with the kids which we highly recommend, The resort/ area itself was extremely quite which is obviously down to covid, but we enjoyed the peace and quite, We would definitely return ☺️

Very spacious apartment with lovely balcony in a great position near beautiful beach.

Ideal location for most beautiful beach in Portugal. Set in a nice and well kept apartment complex with large communal pool with small bar and cafe open all day. Had a really nice holiday with Alex responding to minor issues (wi-fi) very promptly. Apartment has all you need for self catering and bonus beach stuff in the cupboards. Very comfy lounge and great palm tree outlook from balcony towards Sao Rafael beach. Beds are comfy but one is very firm and squeaky. Can be hot at night but a nice breeze can be had if you leave some shutters open (safe to do so and quiet at night). All in all would be very happy to return.

Great property! Fantastic location!

My family of 4 stayed at this Sao Rafael apartment in August 2018. We had a fantastic holiday. The apartment is situated in a very peaceful setting , is very well equipped and is super comfortable. Great place to relax after a day out. The local area is fantastic . The beach is only a few minutes walk away and is stunning. The pool is nice too and it was possible to get sun beds for all the family- even in August. There are lots of great restaurants locally too. We will definitely be visiting this apartment again!

Such a brilliant family holiday!

Apartment was like a home from home. Lovely and comfortable - new Dolce Gusto coffee machine, internet TV for those times when kids (and parents!) need some downtime after a busy day st the beach. Lots of lovely local eateries and not far to old town or marina if want a change. Hope to be back!

Unterkunft mit Meerblick liegt nur ca. 500 m vom Strand entfernt.

Da wir einen Wagen geliehen haben, konnten wir uns in den 14 Tagen die herrliche Landschaften und die interessanten Orte westlich von Albufeira anschauen und auch einige Wanderungen machen.

Demasiado tranquilo

Demasiado lejos de todo, sin ningun tipo de facilidades (no supermercado, tiendas, bares, restaurantes...). Sucio, mobiliario muy viejo, cuarto de baño viejo e incómodo, muy poca iluminación. Colchones muy duros e incómodos, paredes muy sucias con necesidad de pintura. Armarios llenos de cosas y con olor a humedad. Increíble un congelador en una habitación haciendo ruido. Salida demasiado temprano y encima el dueño nos dijo que podian venir a las 9 a traer algo de mobiliario. Piscina siempre llena, aprnas la hemos podido disfrutar. Lo único bueno lo apartado que está de todo si tu finalidad es descansar.

Very nice Location, very nice appartment, very good information

We were guests in Alex apartment for almost 2 weeks in July 2018. The apartment was clean and provides us with all we need during our vacation. The location close to the beach is very nice. Also you can reach many nice places from Sesmarias in max. one hour. Samples are: Loule, Silves, Lagos, Monchique with it's two small mountains Foia and Picota, the beaches of the west coast, shopping possibilities and so on. Alex always provided us with answers to our questions very fast and friendly. If we will come back to this area we will surely ask her about the apartment. Best wishes Christian

Fantastisch gelegene Fewo

Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt in Alexis Fewo. Seine Infos waren sehr hilfreich und die Lage, Luftlinie etwa 200m von einem der schönsten Abschnitte der Klippenküste mit wunderschönen Wandermöglichkeiten in jede Richtung, ist toll. Das Personal der Anlage hat uns zwar die abendliche Ankunft etwas erschwert, da es weder Elektrizität noch Gas aktiviert hatte, aber dafür kann Alexis nichts. Wir haben es auch so hingekriegt. Insgesamt eine wirklich schöne Wohnung!

Relax

La casa è esattamente come nelle foto, spaziosa e dotata di ogni comfort. Vicinissima alla spiaggia comodamente raggiungibile a piedi e le altre spiagge distano veramente poco, 10 minuti ad esagerare in macchina. Piscina molto comoda e rilassante. Proprietari disponibilissimo. Unica pecca...10 sterline x aver rotto un piatto mi sembrano un pò eccessive, ma va bene così! Vacanza splendida in un posto meraviglioso. Consigliatissima.
