My husband I arrived at the property on 1st July for a wedding the following day. As our flight was early in the morning we paid a small charge for early check in, this was so easily arranged with the owners. When we arrived we were amazed at the size of the apartment with a large living space, a good sized and well equipped kitchen area and 2 really good sized bedrooms. one with an ensuite and another separate bathroom. The apartment was spotless and had absolutely everything we could have needed. There is air con in both bedrooms as well as the living area which was fantastic. My mum arrived a few days later with our 2 kids and they absolutely loved it. There was so much space in the apartment for all of us, one of the best we have ever stayed in. There were sun loungers and plenty of tables and chairs for dining outside, which we did every day for lunch. We found it so easy to have breakfast and lunch at the apartment as the kitchen was so well equipped and so much easier with young kids. There is a lovely grass area at the back of the apartment which the kids loved in the evenings or when not at the pool. So much space at the bck of the apartment for sun bathing if you don't fancy the pool or beach.The location was perfect for the old town where we spent a lot of time, taxis are plentiful. Plenty of pool areas for the kids, my little girl especially never wanted to leave the pool, all very convenient to the apartment. We also ate at the resort a few times, our absolute favourite for dinner was O Pavilhao, the food was absolutely amazing and the staff fantastic. We arranged our transfers through a friend of the owners 'Andrei' and the service was excellent, great communication, prompt and very reasonable so will use again for sure. I would recommend this property to anyone and we will definitely be back. Rosie, Sean and family, N. Ireland July 2019
