    Really lovely apartment, very comfortable & had everything we needed. Communication with Michelle from the moment of booking was excellent, she was always on hand to answer any questions we had. The complex which the apartment is on was great, very quiet and hardly anyone round the pool so always lots of sunbeds to choose from (this was mid September). The restaurant on site was fab, a great menu & very reasonably priced, very friendly staff. About a 15 minute walk to the marina, a bit further to the old town. We would definitely visit again.

    We had a great holiday, the apartment was really clean, stylish and equipped with everything we needed for a family holiday. The pool and bar area were brilliant and less than two minutes walk away. The area is quiet and peaceful, the marina with lots of bars and restaurants is no more than a fifteen minute walk away.Would highly recommend staying here.

    Great place to stay at, just a little to far for us to the local food shops. Great apartment with all the nice touches such as tennis rackets, beach umbrellas, washing powder, kitchen cupboard essentials.Would recommend

    The owners apartment is amongst several surrounding a great ‘centre court’ for tennis along with a nice pool area inc beds umbrellas courtesy of Carla and staff and a restaurant that locals also frequent daily with good fresh food served lunch into evenings plus the wine is very goodThe appartment is nic3 & comfortable with literally everything you need for 2-4 people and easy to access uber taxis outside to other places inc beaches not far awayThe only concern we had arriving on a Sunday was the onsite restaurant and area was closed for that day only and with a late night flight home to follow we were suddenly blessed by the owners advice with a local pool bar & full facilities to use called “scoobies bar” which is a must and run very well for the day drinks food pool changing rooms case areas so use if flying home lateor arriving if needs beOverall a lovely quiet place with full facilities providedSee you again!

    Communication was excellent from the very day we booked. Quick and helpful response to our queries. Impeccable place equipped with all you needed. Only draw back is the lack of WiFi. Thank you Michelle and Mike for receiving us.

    Listing stated 1st floor; at least 30 steps to reach apartment. Should be clear about this. Stated English tv channels with satellite; non existent and no wifi. Great location though. Michelle replied to ?s promptly/professionally

    Thank you so much Michelle and Mike! We had such an amazing week at your apartment. The location was perfect for a relaxing week as a family. The facilities on site are brilliant but also great to have so much nearby within walking distance or a short Uber trip away. Hope to return at some point :)

    We chose the property based on its location in the Algarve region since we planned to explore the area in day trips. The check in process was really easy and the space was great for us (2 adults 1 child). The welcome book provided by the hosts has so much information about the area including detailed guidance on beaches and areas of interest, as well as a comprehensive list of local restaurants. We didn’t use the tennis or pool because we were busy the entire time with all the region has to offer.
