We could not have been more delighted with our stay at this luxurious apartment. On arrival we were able to pick up the keys with minimum fuss and park outside our apartment, all the while admiring the well kept gardens and the tranquility of the complex. On entering the property you are greeted by the stunning view, from the large lounge balcony, of the rolling country-side leading to the Meia Praia beach. All the rooms are large, well furnished and maintained. It was a delight to find ample bath towels, beach towels and further bed linen. With a well equiped kitchen it was easy to self cater althogh the lure of numerous excellent resturants in nearby Lagos was hard to resist. With its ideal location on the edge of Lagos, close proximity to an endless sandy beach, and easy access to wonderful resturants this well appointed apartment is faultless. We highly recommend a stay here - you won't be disappointed. |

We stayed at this property as a party of 6 adults on the recommendation of an aquaintance. it was a well founded recommendation. The apartment is supremely comfortable and well appointed throughout. It is spacious, with a large balcony, and the most stunning views across to the Meia Praia beach, Portimao, and the expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The complex is within easy travelling distance of Lagos for eating out, and for groups like us who self cater, the kitchen has all the mod cons. Nowhere is far away in the Algarve from this property, and for us that meant trips to the west coast beaches and the dramatic Atlantic surf, and some of the quieter spots, although by Autumn, everywhere has quietened down! |

This property is one of the best I have ever booked in over 10 years of holidaying abroad. The apartment complex was neat, tidy and well looked after in a very quiet and peaceful location and the apartment itself didn't disappoint either. Standard of decor and furnishings very high, standard of cleanliness very high and it had everything you could possibly wish for in a property - no need to go out and buy anything - it was all there and everything worked ! The t.v., video, stereo, jacuzzi, constant hot water, fantastic water pressure in the showers, air conditioning, abundance of spare towels for beach/pool use, ample storage in all rooms, fully equipped kitchen - the list is endless. We did find a Visitor's Book in the drawer of a unit in the living room which was full of great reviews going to back to 2003 - further affirming that John Carter is a great landlord who cares about his property and that his visitors have a relaxing and comfortable holiday in a quality environment. |
Guestbook for Quinta De Sao Roque
"First class apartment in a first class location, and under an hour away by motorway (toll free!) from Faro airport. The apartment benefits from 24 hour site service and is located within easy walking distance from one of the finest beaches on the Algarve, within a few minutes drive from the historic old town of Lagos and a "short iron" away from Palmeiras Golf Club. Indeed there are numerous golf courses within easy reach. There are two pools, one for adults and the other for children. the balcony provides for magnificent views over Meia Praia beach and to the sea. The picturesque and unspoilt West Coast with its secluded beaches is a surfers' paradise and is within easy reach. The local restaurants are amongst the best for miles around. Simply a great holiday location with equal measures of comfort and luxury; without any reservation - highly recommended."
