We've stayed in an Algarve Getaways penthouse apartment a couple of times and another privately owned apartment twice. The view from the penthouse is stunning and great to whittle a few hours on the terrace. The apartments and pool area have always been pristine and well looked after. The location is great, takes us 10 mins to walk to the... More

This is our second time to stay in this apartment, it is a very large one bedroomed Penthouse and was top class. All the home comforts and more, the decor was beautiful and a credit to the owners, great taste. The sun shone all day long on the balconies that wrap around the apartment, the view of the sea and...

We stayed in a lovely apartment with everything you needed, toaster, microwave, fridge, freezer, cooker, hob. It had fantastic views of the marina to the right and the sea to the left. The complex is high up on a hill so if you want to go to beach every day it's about a 15 minute walk downhill, and obviously on... More

Just returned home from a lovely stay at these apartments. Our apartment was clean and modern,had everything we needed. Had a balcony with beautiful views. The complex is immaculate, with two pools and lovely gardens.Umbrellas did not seem to be provided,so we had to buy one. It's on top of the hill,so is a steep walk down into the town.We... More

Stayed in block H, FLAT 2B, stunning view.... fabulous apartment.Balcony runs full length of apartment so worth asking for Sea View. Furnished to high standard and well equipped. Cleaned daily Mon/Fri and fresh towels every couple of days. Pool areas spotless and plenty of loungers. No on site reception /bar or shop so worth getting a taxi to large Mondello... More

We stayed in a lovely penthouse apartment with everything you needed and fantastic views but the location was a bit out of the way. The walk down to the old town is fine but you really needed to get a taxi back and this was a struggle most nights as the taxis were extremely busy and we only managed to... More

My wife and I loved both the apartment and its location, as well as the fantastic Algarve Getaways. Cannot believe the location comments as you can take a stroll down to the Marina or old town, and cabs are cheap. we only got a cab once in fact. Great pool, great gardens, lovely top quality apartments with view to die... More

We stay in this complex 3 times a year and it is beautiful. Forget the previous post about it being in the locals area it certainly is NOT. Around it they are other apartment complex ie: Albuferia Jardim, windmill apts and loads of stunning villas. It is steep but that's why you get fantastic views. The local shop is 2... More

Ive just returned from a one week stay in these apartments. I went with Algarve Getaways (who I have travelled with before and been really impressed it) but we were not impressed at all with this place. It is REALLY isolated. It is nowhere near any of the other tourist areas / apartments. It is located in a neighbourhood for... More
