Airy, light and spacious in a good location. Pool area clean and functional but not very inviting - could do with more loungers and some umbrellas.
Main suggestion - make a ‘house book’ with basic information on how everything in the apartment works, what to do/who to call when things go wrong (we had a power cut) and some local recommendations for eating and shopping. It would have been a great help.

Very spacious apartment with everything you could possibly need within.
Had a fantastic stay in Praia da Rocha. The apartment was absolutely perfect with a great sea view from the main balcony. Pool is very large and varied in busyness while we were there. Sometimes we had it to ourselves for several hours, especially between 2pm and 4pm we found. But I never saw more than half a dozen people poolside at any one time, even though it was August when we went. 2 sunbeds were a great bonus by the pool marked with the apartment number, as not all the apartments in the condo had sunbeds and just used towels on the grass. Apartment is VERY spacious with all mod cons. It was very hot when we went so we did use the air con a fair amount. There is also a bonus side balcony off the kitchen which was great for hanging out washing. There are no British channels on the TV so if you are English speaking be sure to bring a laptop where you can watch iPlayer, films, etc.! We paid a very small amount extra for Wi-Fi and it was a godsend with the children, aged 9 and 14! We didn't hire a car in the end but supermarkets and beach are only 10 minutes away by foot. The beaches are spectacular. We preferred the beaches to the right as you face the sea where there were more interesting rocky outcrops and it wasn't so busy as on the main strip, which looked a bit like sardines in a tin. Cut through the caravan park to get to the quieter beaches on the right hand side. Can highly recommend the boat trip into the caves - 3 hours long was just right and the resident boat parrot highly entertaining! Trip cost 30 Euros per adult, 15 per child (under 12) and well worth it. Down the main strip are lots of market holders - be sure to barter with them and the same with the hair braiders - my daughter really wanted it done and we bartered 5 euros off. Definitely would like to return to this amazing place. Antonio is so very lucky to own this gorgeous apartment. :o)

Lovely spacious apartment with sea view
We stayed here last week for 8 days. We arrived late Sunday night so no 1 was able to meet us. Antonio gave us a detailed email with details of keys and codes for the apartment. Which was all easy to find and use. It really helps!!
The apartment was spacious and was great for 4 adults and 2 children.
The balcony was lovely to sit and have breakfast or a meal on. It’s a shame it isn’t a little bit bigger.
We had a lovely week in the area which we have visited on day trips before. Lots of lovely restaurants no more then a 20 minute walk.
There is a lovely swimming pool which is a great size and kids spent most of there time in there. It is such a shame that it isn’t cleaned more often as with the open space and building site next door you get lots of trees and bits in the water. Also some repairs need to be made to the pool. Lots of tiles are coming off and some holes in the pool which a few of us caught our feet on. We came away with a few grazes from the missing tiles and rough parts of the pool. That really let the pool down as it’s a great size and you don’t get many like that anymore.
Once it was clean the children (and the adults) loved spending time in the water.
The 2 Sun loungers were great especially as we were down there so long most days.
The girls loved the park too!!
The only other fault was the WiFi. Most days the connection was so slow nothing would work. With 2 younger children films and CBeebies is a must..... with such a poor connection it was a long week watching the few programs we downloaded.
Thank you Antonio for being a great host even though we didn’t meet you!
Maybe 1 year we will come back and stay :)

Lovely apartment
This apartment is lovely and maintained to a high level. The location is fairly good with only a 5minute walk to the beach and the start of the main front. The beaches are amazing in Portugal, they go on forever but shame the sea isn't warmer.
We hired a car so we were out and about and made it easy to nip to big supermarket to get supply's. Very well equipment kitchen. The only downsides to the apartment is not having any loungers round the pool, had to sit on the grass. The other thing is there is a building site right next door, didn't bother us too much but would have been nicer without the drilling but they do have Sunday's off! The apartment block itself felt very safe and friendly.
Great family holiday.

A estadia correu muito bem. O apartamento corresponde ao anunciado, é confortável e funcional. A localização é boa, muito próxima da praia. O supermercado não fica mesmo ao lado, mas é prático porque fica no caminho a pé entre a casa e a praia. Foi uma boa opção para uns dias tranquilos em família. Recomendamos.

Mooi appartement in Playa da Rocha
Het appartement is mooi gelegen, zo'n 10 minuten lopen van de boulevard cq het strand.
De 2 slaapkamers zijn goed gesitueerd en de woonkamer is gezellig. De keuken is mooi ruim en de ligging van het balkon is prima op het zuid-westen. De entree is mooi en het geheel buiten ziet er mooi groen en erg verzorgd uit!
Het agentschap zou het adres wat beter kunnen omschrijven door de straat ook te vermelden en niet alleen Castellos da Rocha, Loge 1 te noemen. Het was even zoeken 's avonds in het donker. De sleutel was daarna weer wel goed te vinden.
Kortom een prima verblijf.

Super schön und unkompliziert
Wir waren zu viert (2 Paare zw. 24-27 Jahren) und hatten einen wunderbaren Urlaub! Alles hat super geklappt. Als wir vom Flughafen kamen, hat uns Carla schon empfangen, um uns die Schlüssel zu geben und alles zu erklären. Sie brachte uns auch die Handtücher und das Bettzeug (muss unbedingt vorher bei Antonio für 10 € p.P. bestellt werden, wenn man es nicht selbst mitbringen möchte).
Die Lage ist super. Der Strand ist in ein paar Gehminuten erreichbar und zusammen mit der Praia dos tres Irmaos einer der schönsten Strände an der Algarve. Vom Balkon hat man einen schönen Blick zum Meer und auf eine Weide mit ein paar Pferden. Zu Fuß kommt man auch gut zu den vielen Restaurants und Bars am Meer.
Den Pool hatten wir die gesamte Woche fast für uns allein, wir waren allerdings auch nicht in der Hauptreisezeit.
Die Wohnung war sauber und in einwandfreiem Zustand. In der Küche war alles vorhanden, was man so zum Kochen braucht.
Alles in allem hatten wir einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt und werden gerne wieder kommen.
