Easy going stay before Xmas

4 of 5
Submitted: December 22, 2012 Stayed: December 2012
Apartment was "as seen" on the web site. Comfortable with all requirements covered. All rooms with heating and aircon, so all weather conditions catered for. Town was very quiet, but that allowed easy parking everywhere and easy to get round the shops that were open. Restaurants also very quiet, but still some wonderful food to be had - Casa de Fonte on the tunnel steps was very good, and had a lovely cosy atmosphere with log burner to keep you warm - it does get very cold in the evenings! But we were luck with lovely weather during the day, and the view from the seat a couple of minutes walk from the apartment overlooking the sea was beautiful - a favoured spot every afternoon.
Had a few issues with stairs, steps and inclines - parking space under the building (impossible to get in to because of another car parked so you couldn't turn) was three flights of stairs from the ground floor, and when you go out on foot there is always steps or inclines to negotiate - not good for us with walking issues! And the courtyard did not come off of the balcony, but was accessed via the basement car park - so not user friendly, and neither balcony or courtyard got any sun anyway in December, so no real outside space. But if you are fit the apartment was a wonderful base for the town and restaurants, all within easy walkable distance - it's just the slopes! Three Crowns, although the food we had wasn't great i would imagine is wonderful for a meal on the terrace in summer with stunning views of the ocean, and only a few doors down the slope from the apartment.
Owner's Response: The Algarvians take a well deserved rest in November and December so it is a quiet period and this provides visitors with an opportunity to explore lovely places without the summer crowds. The area picks up again for Christmas and New Year and continues to be open for the tourists who start to visit from January right through October. Albufeira and much of central Algarve is hilly with sand cliffs that drop down to beautiful beaches and this landscape is integral to Albufeira's character so it is strongly advisable to check what travel options are available for people with mobility issues. The apartment is a perfect base all year round as there is plenty to do and many outdoor options.

Our first holiday in Portugal!

4 of 5
Submitted: September 12, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
We stayed our first week in Portugal in the 3 bedroom apartment. We enjoyed the apartment, because it was well equiped and clean. The apartment is very centrally located, near by beach, shops, restaurants and everything you may need during your holiday. In both rooms with the single beds, one of the two beds were not very comfortable. The other beds were all right. Unfortunately we couldn't find the coffee maker! Luckily the coffee was very good everywhere in Albufeira!

In spite of this we had a wonderful time in this apartment in Albufeira and we would certainly recommand this holiday home to family or friends.

Family Kraaijenbrink/Netherlands
Owner's Response: The close proximity to the beach and town is a major reason for staying in this apartment. It is an ideal base for all age groups as Albufeira has something to offer everyone. Families with teenagers/young adults find the apartment a good option in summer as Albufeira can be enjoyed as a family but it also offers the teenagers/young adults the opportunity to go off partying later into the night... and most importantly, they can walk back to the apartment safely and easily.

Unforgettable

The apartment is spacious, clean, comfortable, well equipped and above our expectations. An ideal location.
Everything ran smoothly with the booking and during our stay. Tracy, Jules and Kevin many thanks fort that.
Our belated honeymoon together with our now adult children was unforgettable. The apartment and location have certainly contributed.

Best Regards,

Very clean but this was the best thing about it

When we arrived the apartment hadn't been heated for us and the first 24 hours were extremely cold. This had happened before, according to the guest book. The heating system cannot run all the room heaters at the same time, so a gas heater has to be used to back it up. Unfortunately, the gas heater did not work. Another heater was delivered for us but the gas ran out within minutes. The poor cleaner couldn't collect a gas bottle for us because her car wasn't working, so we had to go and find a bottle ourselves. The dishwasher was filled and turned on as we went out for the day. We returned in the evening to find it still running, it didn't work! Also, the handle was broken. Unfortunately, there were 6 of us staying and only comfortable seating for 4 is provided, something not very clear from the photos. We had to take it in turns to sit on dining chairs every evening. The shower holder is loose and kept falling off the wall, the paint above the shower is peeling off. A tumble dryer is available but there is nowhere to plug it in. One evening we were subjected to a child shouting and screaming in the hallway, interjected with kicking on our front door - we had to call the police. The beds are extremely uncomfortable, although I appreciate this is very subjective, but none of us got a good night of sleep the whole week. The pillows are very small and flat. The water heater is not capable of providing hot water, it is merely tepid, and cannot support two taps running at the same time. At one point during our stay the battery for the water heater went flat and we had no hot water at all just as we were preparing for a night out. The cleaner attended to this promptly and we returned to a new battery.
The kitchen is fairly well equipped, although no container for making ice. The information provided for guests is very poor. We are all accommodation providers and know what our guests expect, we expect no less but did not get it during this stay. Previous guests have made similar comments but actions have not been taken to rectify the problems. The cleaner was very helpful and the place was spotless, she is to be commended.

I would not recommend this apartment to my friends or family and I would not return again.
Owner's Response: This is the first 'poor' review received in 5 years of renting this property on behalf of its owners.

Here follows my response to the review left above: 1) The apartment's heating was put on at the time of arrival and later the guests found the supplementary heater had run out of gas. This problem was resolved speedily with the guests kind offer of help and at the time they were wholly satisfied with the efforts made to improve their comfort. 2) The guests informed me the dishwasher had a fault but they did not suggest this was a major problem for them. 3) The guests mistakenly booked Apt2 (3 bedroom apt) based on the photos of Apt1 (2 bedroom apt) - the first photos to appear on the web page belong to Apt1 and these show a large lounge with dining seats and comfortable seating for 6 people. Unfortunately this was a big issue for them and I could not provide them with additional comfortable seating. These 3 issues were raised during their stay and following this no further contact was received from them so I assumed they were satisfied with the apartment. 4) The guests did not mention noise disturbance to me directly, the first mention of it is found in this review. Noise disturbance is not typical and perhaps another apartment had a family with children staying there during the Epiphany holiday period. 5) The other comments refer to small maintenance jobs and suggested improvements that could be made. These were reported to me after the group arrived back from their holiday.

The apartment has its annual maintenance check in Jan/Feb each year in preparation for the peak season May-October, hence the apartment is offered at a competitively priced £280 per week in Jan/Feb. We welcome comments and suggestions for maintenance, comfort and service improvements and where practical or possible, remedial action will be taken.

Fabulous holiday

We have just returned from a weeks holiday in the 3 bedroom apartment. We all had a teriffic time the apartment was very central a mere 3minute stroll to the beach and all the bars. The restaurants are lovely offering a good choice for all tastes and the atmosphere in the evening is superb. The apartment is well equipped with everything you need including a great inventory in the kitchen. We slept soundly at night with no noise from the outside despite us being so near the action. Paula the lady who met us on the day of our arrival was lovely and helpful and she was only a phone call away should you need anything. The transfer arranged through the owners went smoothly and was a reasonable price. All in all this was a great booking and we will return again next year.
