Just home from this stunning apartment no complaints at all ,apartment was fantastic pool area lovely and clean the wee bar was lovely and so were the staff,great location easy walk to old town and marina will def stay again
Loved everything about the apartment, the area it's in is lovely....15 min walk downhill to the beach, and 20 min walk to the marina.
The views were fantastic from the balcony (which is massive) Swimming pool was really nice and not too busy, beds start getting taken about 9.30 am.
The apartment itself has everything you need for a self catering break including a BBQ.
The host's were easy to get hold of if you needed anything.
We booked a 1 month stay for January/ February. This condo is very well equipped, clean, and the property manager Milene was excellent to work with. Would definitely stay again!
Large suite with everything you need for your stay. Beautiful property with a lovely pool. We arrived late at night had some difficulty finding the location from the google map link provided.
The process was very easy and the location was top notch. A 5 minute walk to both the beach as well as restaurants and stores. Have nothing whatsoever to complain about and I highly recommend anybody going to Albufeira to rent this apartment.
Thanks for the lovely stay, everything was fabulous, I only rated the check in with 4 stars because the key wouldnt work and the apartment door was jammed, but Joe came to our rescue straightaway and the lock was changed soon after.
Thanks for everything we will definitely be back.
Perfect accomodation near city center with beautiful views
Lovely apartment, equipped with everything you could ever need. Baby bed, and chair and cutlery/cups all very convenient.
The location is beautiful, short downhill stroll to the city center and beach. Only downside is the horrible WiFi but for us not a big deal as it made us turn the phones down.

We are in love with this apartaments.
In a city so noisy , this place was very calm, nice and so beatiful. This apartament have all what you need for your holidays , good designer inside and walderfuul view for poll, city and beach.
Thank you for bread and fruits .
We will be glad to come back here .
We really enjoyed our first trip to Portugal. Apartment was lovely, clean and spacious, fab roof terrace, with lovely views. Pool area is nice, with a great pool bar. Apartment is in a good location for the beach and town (approx 20 mins walk.) Town can get quite lively in the evening with large groups, but we avoided those areas.
We had a wonderful stay at this light, bright, spacious apartment. Super clean and with a well equipped kitchen and comfy seating. The top deck was a fabulous spot to enjoy meals and drinks with gorgeous views over the property and to the sea. The onsite pool is superb and tennis courts were enjoyed too. Love having the wee shop for emergency toothpaste and ice creams. An easy walk to town and the beach. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing holiday.
We went to this wonderful accommodation and it surpassed all expectations. The view was amazing it was close to the old downtown of Albufeira. Comfortable for 5 adults everything you could possibly need for an extended stay. Was very clean, lots of extra little touches, host was extremely helpful and friendly. So many fine restaurants within a 15 minute walk, beach was also easy to access as well. Be prepared for some uphill walks.
Had a lovely holiday in Albufeira and more specifically at this apartment. It’s probably a 8 to 10 minute walk downhill to the old town, so sufficiently far away to ensure we had a peaceful holiday. Whilst close to the action of the beach etc . Good timing Check -in was made super easy by Tony as was the checkout and we were delighted to find on arrival that the property was very clean and also came with lots of equipment , ( there was even electric pumped to pump up the inflatables) to make our holiday a success.Thanks, Tony

Excellent Stay
We stayed for 3 nights in June 2018. We had an excellent stay and couldn't recommend this apartment enough! It was very clean, spacious and tidy and had all the facilities we needed. Tony the owner and Jan the manager were also excellent accommodating us before & during our stay and we were even able to have early check in and late check out which was amazing. The apartment is excellently situated only a short walk into the Old Town and the Windmill Hill complex also has great facilities. The private roof/sun terrace is also an excellent addition and we will definitely be returning!
Beautiful apartment, 10 mins walk from old town. Apartment was meticulous. Welcome basket was appreciated. Only tiny inconvenience was the wifi was intermittent. View from terrace was breathtaking. The Windmill resort is beautiful. It has a good cafe on sight, ( though owner was unfriendly), with a mini mart, along with a fine dining restaurant.Would highly recommend.

Fantastic apartment couldn’t fault it in any way had everything we needed and more
Lovely apartment all round views from terrace are amazing!!! Plenty of space and had everything you need plus the bits of food in the fridge when we arrived was much needed and appreciated by all. Only downside was no air conditioning and even in September the nights were hot even with the doors open and fans on!! That said though we would certainly still return to this fabulous place.
Everything you need. Needs a little bit attention, curtains need to be fixed, lightbulbs etc need to be taken care of.
But it was off season, so we were lucky to have a place to stay. Super friendly host, we even found breakfast in the fridge! Thank you!

Fabulous holiday
Amazing views and lovely apartment - even has a toastie maker ! We used Yellow fish transfers from the airport and they were excellent ! The facilities were very clean and maintained to a high standard. The snack bar is excellent and has a small shop. The supermarket is nearby as is the beach, harbour and town. The location is on a hill but it was no problem for us and taxis are cheap. The steak house at the Cerro hotel is very good and the service was the best we encountered whilst in the resort.
From all the VRBO’s that we have stayed at the directions to get to the apartment given by the owner we’re “spot on”! The apartment was beautiful, clean and the view from upstairs balcony worth every penny spent. Our only complaint was that the WIFI kept going out - meaning that we constantly had to re-connect. Check in and out was a charm and parking easy to find. The location up on the hill overlooking Albufeira is stunning and a great place to stay to get away from the crowds down below in town. I shall recommend this place to friends. Two thumbs up!
