Wonderful stay
My husband and I stayed here for three weeks. The condo was sparkling clean, probably the cleanest place we have ever rented. I loved the size of the unit, it worked out perfectly for us. Since we eat in more than we eat out, I found the kitchen well equipped and a good size for preparing meals. We also found no issue with parking in September. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Very comfortable and nice flat.
It was a bit difficult to find the proper street (Poco da Gola), othervise everything was perfect. Many things are available at the flat, eg. shopping roller, sun umbrella. Pool is clean but the grass is usually wet, would be better to water it in the evening. Beaches are close, you can walk. Supermarket is in also walk distance. I can recommend this accomodation

We enjoyed a wonderful stay. The apartment met all our needs - it was very clean and well appointed. It was close to the beach, restaurants and only a 5 minute walk to a supermarket.

Great place to explore Algarve
The property was nicely decorated and spotless. Rachael - the property manager - was helpful and available. In the booking stage the VRBO owner responded immediately and helpfully. It was very hard to find so knowing that it is directly across form the Be Live Palmieras Family Resort is most helpful. Despite being very modern, it was charming to see the goats in the neighborhood each day. Note: I couldn't do a full review because the icons are not 'live' and identified in the Review field, so for msot of the reviewI had no idea what I was commenting on.

A walk to the beach away
The condo is spacious and clean. It is in a good location for walking to the beach & local restaurants. The pool is located a building over, a quick walk away, which was a nice amenity. There are no chairs here you can bring your own or just use your beach towel.

Excellent apartment in lovely area.
The property was excellent, the owner responded quickly on all queries. A little disappointed there were no sun loungers at the pool hence only used it once (too old for lying on the grass!) A beautifu area and all necessary amenities close by.

Algarve trip - nice and clean appartment
We would recommend this appartment. It is located between Albufeira (25 min) and Carvoeiro (20 min). If you have a rental car, you can easily discover the Algarve from this location.

Idéalement situé pour visiter l'Algarve
Parfait en tout point, malgré la climatisation en panne (nous avons été prévenus avant notre arrivée et une réduction nous a gentiment été proposée). La température était au maximum de 32 degrés dehors et nous n'avons même pas utilisé les ventilateurs . Tout était parfait.leventilateurs.fournis.

Gut ausgestattete schöne Wohnung
Insgesamt war es ein schöner Aufenthalt in diesem Apartment. Die Wohnung ist gemütlich eingerichtet, die Küche gut ausgestattet und es gibt sogar Spielzeug für Strand/Pool für Kinder. Es gab genug Kissen und Decken. Die Zimmer waren sauber aber leider waren die Balkone sehr dreckig, unser kleiner Sohn ist ein Mal dort gekrabbelt und seine Knie und Füße waren schwarz. Wir mussten die Balkone selber putzen, damit wir sie nutzen können. Der Schaukelstuhl war komplett verrostet und die Kissen darauf leider nicht sauber wie auf den Bildern. Die Parksituation war gut. Wir konnten mit dem Auto zu jeder Tageszeit in der Nähe gut einen Parkplatz finden. Der Gemeinschaftspool ist super, sehr nah gelegen und sehr ruhig. Keine Musik/DJ.

Sehr Zufrieden
Wir haben einen Monat in der Unterkunft gewohnt und haben die Algarve bereist. Die Unterkunft war dafür ein gut gelegener Ausgangspunkt (in der Mitte der Algarve). In dem Ort gibt es zwei hübsche kleine Strände, die im September auch nicht überfüllt waren. Auch die Betreuerin der Wohnung war super nett. Wir können die Unterkunft nur empfehlen. Es gibt alles was man mit Kind braucht in der Wohnung und wenn etwas fehlt, kann man einfach fragen.

Excelente estadia
O apartamento está muito bem situado, próximo de 3 lindíssimas praias. A zona é bastante sossegada, ótimo para umas férias relaxadas e longe das confusões. Facilidade de estacionamento em volta. Decoração geral da casa, excelente, bem como a limpeza, impecável!! Cama com colchão muito confortável, roupa da cama cheirosa e de muito boa qualidade. Lençóis para a cama extra disponíveis, toalhas de banho mais que suficientes para a semana toda. Piscina a poucos metros do apartamento, sempre com as áreas limpas e arrumadas. Comunicação com a proprietária sempre tranquila e de resposta rápida. Recomendo a 100% este apartamento. Voltaria sem pensar 2 vezes!

Apartamento muito bonito, agradável e fiel às fotos. Muito próximo das praias da Cova Redonda e Senhora da Rocha. Quanto às funcionalidades, a TV só tem os canais referentes à TDT, o que para nós não foi um problema, mas é limitativo. O wi-fi não existia mas foi-nos, prontamente, entregue um router que nos possibilitou ter acesso à internet durante toda a nossa estadia. A cama é bastante espaçosa e confortável, havendo ainda a possibilidade de utilização de uma outra cama desmontável para a criança, evitando assim, ter que se utilizar o sofá. As varandas são bastantes agradáveis e convidativas a relaxar e a passar momentos descontraídos. A piscina, embora não sendo junto ao apartamento é muito perto e, sendo utilizada por várias pessoas dos prédios em redor, é grande e, durante o período em que lá estivemos, nunca esteve lotada. O único senão, foi não ter guarda sois e espreguiçadeiras (não sei se é sempre assim ou se foi motivado pela situação do Covid). O local onde se situa o apartamento é calmo e tranquilo, havendo um café/bar e uma gelataria onde se podia ir, perfeitamente, a pé. No entanto, é muito próximo de Armação de Pêra onde se encontra mais oferta de serviços. A comunicação tanto com a Sandi (proprietária), como com a Karen (pessoa que nos entregou a chave) foi sempre muito fácil de estabelecer e rápida, embora só falassem inglês. No geral, tivemos uma estadia muito agradável e voltaríamos a repetir
