I chose this property because I didn't want a huge hotel with 4 pools, 5 restaurants and the noise of people. Its simple, clean and apartments are lovely. Studios are great and my recent stay was a one bed on 2 floors with 3 balconies and the bed was amazing. Location is key if you have children. Its away from the noise of the strip but only 5minutes walk away. There's restaurants on your doorstep left and right as you leave the property. No negatives at all from me. I got what I wanted.
Staff are very friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and clean. We had three balconies which had amazing views on either side of the apartment. The pool is quite big and there are many sunloungers around the pool which was great as it meant everyone got a seat (which I know has always been a problem for me in places I’ve stayed previously). The apartments are in an ideal location for the strip and to the beaches which saved us a lot of money on traveling with cabs. Overall, a very good experience! I would recommend staying here!
The hotel was basic and the room furniture a little dated but spotlessly clean, had a nice pool area and was close to the strip (but not noisey), a short walk up the strip takes you to the tourist train to the old town.
Our only letdown was that we explained one of our group struggled with stairs and we requested a ground floor room -we were given a two storey apartment (with a bed downstairs) with only an upstairs bathroom / toilet and no room availability to change rooms -this made things a bit tricky. The person sleeping downstairs also had to come into the main bedroom to access the bathroom-also a bit annoying during the night.

Reasonable accommodation
Reasonable accommodation, good sized room, maid service daily, could grumble about fridge which didn’t seem to keep cold and the cooker which didn’t seem to heat up as it should have! Pool area was decent, overall reasonable enough.
The location was great, beds were awful, two single cots/couches, had to sleep in separate beds and they were extremely hard. The studio was small and not well equipped. The pool was ok but really cold, in all fairness the weather in Portugal is colder than usual for this time of year.
Apartments surround lovely pools. Indoor pool and hot tub. Close to beach, the strip and restaurants. parking for hire car. Spacious accommodation bud bed/sofas basic. Very pleasant stay. Most places closed for winter but still had some great nights out.

Very basic but extremely clean.
Mixture of families, couples and groups of hens and stags. No issues while there. Accommodation is basic. Beds were still simple sofas when we got there which were heavy to move as they were at different ends of the large studio. 3 skinny lumpy pillows. Nice powerful shower and plenty of hot water in a clean bathroom. Plenty of space in the room. No air con and ground floor meant you couldn't leave the doors open to let air through so very warm at night.
Location was good. Just st a few metres from some good restaurants Invictus and Sizzlng Stone.
The staff was very friendly and helpful. We liked our apartment. It was spacious and clean, and there were 3 balconies. There were 3 swimming pool. Great value for money! Definitely highly recommended

nette Anlage
Eine nette Anlage, aber leider sehr hellhörig. Man hört jedes Geräusch von den Nachbarappartements. Leider keine zentrale Heizung, nachts wurde es ziemlich frisch und klamm im Zimmer.
Zentral gelegen für Ausflüge in die Umgebung.
