Spacious Studio Apt, With Air - Con, Lovely Swimming Pool, Very Close To Beach.

Seamless booking arrangements, communication post- arrival, and self check in. Interior as pictures and descriptions. Clean and functional. Good quality WiFi (additional weekly cost as stated when booking). Unfortunately the outside areas were an enormous disappointment and forced us to leave after one night. Exterior pictures are deceptive and the description of a 'balcony' is, in our opinion, miss-advertised. Whilst the outside photos are genuine they are extremely dated and we later realised that so too were the consistently high reviews (last dated 2018, our fault for not considering the implications of this). The external area of the complex is tired and jaded in terms of decor and maintenance. The balcony is not a balcony and is literally the area outside the door which does not have capacity to sit two people comfortably and is not enclosed. Furthermore you would not want to sit outside as the picture is not today's reality, the walls are greying and the area is dark and unwelcoming (we have photos to illustrate this). The swimming pool quality was very good and clearly well maintained but unfortunately the surrounding area of the pool was not very attractive (again jaded) and what sunbeds were there, were either broken or in need of cleaning (despite being told the pool and sunbeds had recently been refurbished). The outdoor area is such an important part of our holiday and we were very disappointed at the reality. When we contacted the host and enquired as to whether we could upgrade to a more suitable accomodation we were told there were no other properties available. This sadly was an outright lie as the host had multiple properties advertised for these dates in the locality and we know this as we were looking to re-locate as soon as we could. We would have preferred a straightforward and honest, 'no we don't upgrade /move our guests'. We were willing to pay extra with our host but after initial correspondence the host no longer replied. We appreciated that there was a clear no refund policy. However, the property was NOT as advertised and therefore failed to meet trading standards and the external photos gave a false impression. We realise our booking incurred initial expense but having left after night 1 (of an 11 night stay) we were disappointed that the host was not willing to consider a compromise and/or partial refund in light of the issues raised. This is the first time this has happened to us & we will be cautious in future.

Cabanas is a lovely resort, we enjoy being by the pool, which was fantastic and we had it to ourselves for the majority of the time. The studio was compact, as described.

Mark met us with the keys and gave us a quick tour of the accomodation which was spotlessly clean and contained everything we needed.

We have just returned from a week's stay here and we loved it. The owners keep the place spotlessly clean, the swimming pool and the gardens are beautiful. They are also very helpful and friendly. The apartment has everything you need, air-con etc. and is very comfortable, the location is so peaceful. You do not need a car, because the location is just near the waterfront of Cabanas and ideal to ensure that you can explore the area. Would definitely recommend this accommodation. Overall, if you are looking for a relaxing holiday somewhere that is close enough to the waterfront to visit shops and restaurants but far enough to get peace and quiet, this is the place for you. We would definitely return!

nice stay, comfortable, essential air conditioning. private pool but no assigned sunbeds for our apartment . only thing there was no bathmat provided , slipped on 1st day!!

Had a lovely stay at this apartment, fab, very spacious and very clean. Had the pool to ourselves, so we spent a lot of time just chilling there. We had every thing there that we needed. Easy 5 minutes walk to the beach, most days we ate out as there is a great choice of restaurants. A car is not necessary as everything is within easy walking distance. We will defiantly book again next year.

We have rented properties all over the world and this apartment is fantastic. Everything has been thought of and it was spotlesly clean and tidy. There is a lovley mezzanine bedroom and a beautiful lounge plus a funky kitchen with a breakfast bar. The apartment has air conditioning and a georgeous swimming pool where we spent a lot of time. You only a few minutes stroll from all the action and there is a huge choice of places to eat .The owners are a delight to deal with full of info and always get back to you asap. Also Mark who met us on arrival is a great guy and very helpful. If we could give this place more than 5 stars we would. Thank you Mark and Agnes. We hope to be back soon . Beverly and Dave.

This apartment is ideal for both the beach and local amenities which are all just a short walk away in this small and friendly village. The village itself still retains much of it's original character as a working fishing town. A boat trip to the nearby island with it's quiet beaches is a must. The swimming pool with this apartment is amazing, so peaceful and relaxing, we loved spending time there. The apartment itself is very clean, very well furnished and equipped with everything you would expect, including air conditioning and was ideal for our holiday. We will visit again and would recommend this apartment.

We stayed in the middle of February and for the time of year the weather was lovely. From our initial contact with the owners, everything was very well organised and we were provided with lots of information. The apartment was spotless, very spacious with lots of homely and personal touches. It is perfectly situated in Cabanas, in a quiet location just a short walk to the beach and the centre, which has lots of restaurants and something for everyone. The pool area was very well kept and clean. We would certainly recommend and definitely stay again.

My wife and I stayed at the apartment for 14 great days. The location was fantastic - so close to the pretty boardwalk (great sunsets), the local eating and drinking haunts and the ferry to the beach. We really enjoyed a great prawn curry at Cantinho do pescador which is only a few minutes walk from the apartment. Vitamas Bar is really good for a lovely cup of coffee and breakfast. The apartment itself is in great condition and beautifully decorated. It is really spacious for two and would easily fit a child in as well. It is decorated and furnished like someone's home rather than a rental property! The best part of our stay was spending a lot of time at the beautiful swimming pool, I think it is a must to have a pool like this when booking an apartment. Overall we had a great time in this apartment and Cabanas. Mark made the whole booking process really straight forward and gave us loads of tips on where to go and what to see. Thanks for everything, see you next year.
