Absolutely wonderful stay! Check in and check out were easy. The location is phenomenal! The apartment itself was spacious and clean. No elevator, so just make note of that, but it was no problem for us to go up one floor of stairs with our luggage. We’d absolutely stay here again!

Amazing flat – clean, well-organized, and located in a quiet area, yet very close to restaurants and bars. Just a 5-minute walk to the main beach of Albufeira. I definitely recommend it!

Wow. #056 Old Post Office, Albufeira, is an amazing place. My wife and I have stayed in dozens of places around the world, and this was one of our best stays. Host communication was excellent. Check in instructions were clear, and the process was easy. The apartment is beautiful, modern, well furnished and impeccably clean. The building is mostly full time residents. Despite being literally in the center of Albufeira, it is quiet. Although Albufeira has a reputation as being a party destination, the Old Post Office sits at the highest point, surrounded by the old town of narrow winding streets. The bars, restaurants, beaches and nightlife are all well down the hill below the apartment, so you have easy access by foot, but the apartment itself is quiet and peaceful. If you are renting a car, get a small one! It makes negotiating the narrow winding one-way streets much easier, and also getting into and out of the convenient parking garage underneath the building.

The location in the Old Town was perfect for us

The location in the Old Town was perfect for us. The apartment was really close to a little archaeology museum, short walk to the beach, great restaurants and bars. It was really clean and comfortable inside. Communication was really clear. We had an issue with hot water when we arrived, but phoned them, and it was sorted quickly. We stayed in Jan and it was fantastic value. There was a cute welcome package when we arrived.

We loved staying here

We loved staying here. The location is perfect, with the beach being a short walk away. There are also sooo many shops and restaurants a short walk down the hill, also lots of bars. It’s prime location honestly. It is downhill and uphill walking back and forthstairs but we had a toddler (almost 3yrs old) and a 6 month old so we had strollersa carrier and it was fine for us. Yes carrying the stroller updown a few stepspushing it uphill was tiring but the location is so prime that it’s worth it. The apartment was also so nice and spacious. Lots of doors for added privacy and reduce noise. Super easy to locate with all the pictures and instructions provided. Highly recommend

Fantastic

Very spacious apartment, I would gladly live there )) The location is fantastic, in the middle of the old town, nice historic building, looking out at the local Conservatorium and Archeological museum, you can catch a glance of the ocean from the living room. A working place is available if you want to work remotely. There are 2 bathrooms (convenient!), a washing machine and dishwasher. We didn’t use the garage, but it’s there for those who has a car. It’s quite calm, with little to no disturbance from the neighborhood. The check in was very smooth, clear instructions from the host. Nothing, really. The bed could have been softer, to my taste.
