Perfect holiday home

Beautiful, clean and spacious property with everything needed for a comfortable holiday. Great views from the roof terrace for evening meals or drinks and private sunbathing in the daytime. Clean pool which was never busy even in high season. Easy to find due to clear instructions and easy entry. Great communication with owner. Good location, a car definitely helps but driving in the Algarve is easy and lots of great day trips. Would recommend 100%.

Month long stay

Adequate size for 4 adults. Did not have a full size fridge and tiny freezer. Kitchen was equipped adequately but not great. The couch would be the biggest complaint. Extremely uncomfortable. Beds were just okay. We rented for a month and for the price thought it could have been better supplied ie. toilet paper, garbage bags, laundry soap. Another note worth mentioning is the terrace which is quite lovely is only accessible though one of the bedrooms. Although the barbecue is nice up on the terrace it’s not the most convenient having to walk up two flights of stairs with dishes, food etc to enjoy a meal. A couple beaches are a good 30 - 45 minutes ago as well as a few restaurants. Great super market 5 -10 minutes walk away. Steep hill going down and back up! I gave this place 3 stars but really should only be 2 1/2 stars.

Our stay in patroves

Property was exactly what we were looking for but was just a wee bit to far from the ameniates, and on a steep hill, found it hard to get taxis for villa had to walk down the hill to get the taxi, but when staying home everything perfect.

Lovely week in a lovely apartment

We loved our stay in this beautiful apartment. It’s big enough to easily accommodate 4 adults. Plenty of kitchen equipment. The areas main benefit is its in a lovely quiet location. There is a couple of small restaurant within walking distance. Great supermarket. The marina with many restaurants and a picturesque beach within 5 minutes in the car. The pool is great however the amazing roof terrace is where we spent the majority of our time. Definitely our favourite feature of this apartment. The view, the privacy, the space all perfect. The only thing this accommodation didn’t have was a hair dryer which I would have found useful if I had realised I would have taken one. Although the suggestion of drying it on the rooftop in the breeze with a large glass did work for me. Communication with Stewart was really accommodating and very quick and gave efficient information given for checkin and any questions we had while there. We have already started looking at when we can return.

Viel Platz, gute Ausstattung, schlechte Instandhaltung

Im Juli 22 waren wir in dieser Unterkunft zu Gast. Die Aufteilung und Größe der Wohnung ist hervorragend. Der Pool ist tatsächlich 2m vor der Haustür und gut gepflegt. Grundsätzlich war es ein „befriedigender“ Aufenthalt. Warum es kein „guter“, bzw. „Sehr guter“ Aufenthalt war, lag an den folgenden Defiziten: - Klimaanlage ohne Funktion - Terassentüren sind nicht verschließbar. Die Wohnung kann man lediglich durch das Herunterlassen der Jalousien „sichern“. Zwar nur zwei Punkte, jedoch sollte eine Klimaanlage, wenn beworben, bei 37grad auch funktionieren. Zu der nicht abschließbaren Terassentür braucht man denke ich nichts erörtern. Sollten diese Mängel behoben werden, ist die Unterkunft definitiv zu empfehlen.

Muito acolhedor

Excelente experiência de alojamento em período de férias. Espaço agradável e confortável para passar férias e descansar do período de trabalho. Casa limpa e mobiliário moderno e confortavel. Terraços muito agradáveis e espaço envolvente do condomínio muito agradável e bem cuidado. Piscina do condomínio não sendo para uso exclusivo, acaba por ser suficiente para partilhar com as restantes casas. O Sr. Stewart proporcionou os pedidos particulares e respondeu sempre de forma breve e assertiva. Obrigado e com certeza que voltarei.
