The location is superb and the rooms a nice size all over,the Wi-Fi has improved a lot from the previous two times we have stayed here which was very important for me.The staff were absolutely fantastic Sarah/pedro/andrea all so helpful and polite they are a credit to the place.People complaining not sure what there is to complain about to be honest,this was our third stay here and would definitely make it a fourth that says it all.

Nothing really.

Very roomy apartment, good view of the garden and pool from a good size terrace. Staff on site are just exceptionally helpful and friendly. A/C in the living quite efficient.

Kitchen is good size, but no good oven and pots and pans are not there seemingly to be used! You bring microwave food you are ok ! Since you will be cleaning the place, could expect access to vacuum cleaner and floor cleaner ...... If you do not.mind hearing neighbors, cars and trucks in the night, you are ok, you are in Albufeira city, noisy.

It was in a great location. The Strip is a 5 min walk, Old Town 20 mins. A self catering apartment which was spacious and had everything we needed. The staff were so friendly and helpful.

There isn’t anything to dislike. I was a little disappointed not to get the pool level apartment that we had booked for, but this was due to unforeseen circumstances which were out of the control of the staff.

Rooms were big and spacious. Our towels and bed sheets were replaced twice over the stay. Apartment was clean. Good location. Nice pool not to just

Quite loud and close to strip so wouldn’t recommend for family’s but the staff did a good job at aiding noise complaints. The staff felt to be a slight bit rude but I feel that the language barrier played a big part in that.

The pool was perfect, loads of beds around it. The rooms were lovely, night cutlery and appliances. The beds were comfy. The couch bed was good too. Loved staying here it’s very close to the strip / beach would highly recommend

Air conditioning was not great and didn’t really keep the room cold. There was no air conditioning in the bedroom so we had to keep the door open, it was too warm.

The location was perfect. Only a 5 minute walk to the top of the strip, a 10 minute walk to aldi and a cheap 5 euro Uber to the old town. For the money the place was amazing, it was so spacious and had all we needed. The pool was never crowded either. Would definitely recommend!

The only thing I would change would be to have a hairdryer but apart from that it was perfect!

Third time at this apartment and fabulous as always. The location is perfect, the staff are friendly and helpful. The ground floor apartment was just perfect. Lounging by the pool when it got too hot.☀️☀️

There isn't anything to dislike. The poolside bar wasn't open but it is the start of the summer season. Hopefully it will be open when we go next month🤞🤞

The staff were so helpful. The property is in a good location to the strip and old town with good supermarket facilities close by

I feel the sunbeds could do with an upgrade, lots of broken and damaged beds around the pool area. Music around the pool would create a good vibe

Fourth time staying here and definitely will be back for a fifth. The staff Re friendly and helpful. The apartment was lovely as always. The location is fantastic. 10 mins walk to New Town, 20 mins walk to Old Town. Supermarkets, bars and bakery right on the doorstep.

Personally, there is nothing to dislike about these apartments.
