This apartment is exactly as described on the web site. It is a very clean, well cared for, modern, high spec apartment. The owners have made it a real home from home. They were extremely helpful in answering all our queries and in the process provided us with the holiday of our dreams. They really go out of their way to make sure that you are completely happy and satisfied with your stay there. We can't say enough good things about them. The apartment is only a few leisurely minutes from the beach with a wide variety of restaurants and wonderful golf courses near by. There is excellent shopping from luxury to very inexpensive items in the area. It is also an ideal apartment for a very relaxing sun vacation by the pool or on one of the terraces overlooking the beautiful garden. It is an ideal base, from which, to visit some of the many interesting tourist sites of the Algarve. We availed of some of the guided tours and enjoyed them very much. These tours are very informative, providing an in-depth insight into the area and its culture. We will definitely be back. |

The first impression was a feeling of friendliness. The Reception staff couldn't have been more helpful. The settling-in process was made so easy. The property was a delight, with the front balcony facing onto the golf course. The two balconies at the rear overlook a quiet garden area. The apartment interior was spotlessly clean and well equipped. Kitchen had all the necessary mod cons and utensils. Spacious living area with TV, DVD, and reading material. The complex has a choice of six different pools. Just a short walk gives you a choice of two lovely beaches. There are any number of wonderful restaurants and vibrant bars within easy reach. I had a super holiday there, and am already planning my next visit. |
