Nice beach location

I thoroughly enjoyed this unit! 15 min walk to the beach or to kms of boardwalks. I liked the tile patio for sunbathing. I liked the nice, well-lit bathroom. The TVs were nice - one in each bedroom. The washing machine was a moneymaker. It was on the ground floor, only eight steps up. The parking was free and convenient. But best of all was the host - Manuela was friendly and always responded quickly to my concerns.

5*

Zona já conhecida e que é sempre bastante agradável,especialmente para crianças. Correu tudo 5 estrelas, mesmo antes da entrada (e obviamente durante), graças à seriedade e atenção dos proprietários. Apartamento com decoração muito bonita, cómodo e com os requisitos necessários, desde atoalhados até loiça e equipamento de cozinha. Óptimo espaço exterior que convida a grelhados e a excelentes jantaradas. Muito Obrigado aos proprietários pela atenção

Sugestões

1. A roupa de cama e as toalhas transmitiriam mais confiança se, em vez de escuros, fossem brancos. 2. O cortinado da banheira devia ser lavado ou substituído. 3. A varinha mágica estava avariada. 4. Ao abrir a cama pela primeira vez verificámos que tinha alguns grãos de areia fina.

This apartment had everything we needed, except that the. WiFi did not work during our stay. The place was super clean and quiet. Parking was right in front of the building. The review would have been 5 stars if the. WiFi had worked as advertised. Thanks Mrs. Sao.

Hi john, Thank you very much for your review and we apologize for the wifi not working during your stay, but the company has lost the commitment to go there before 5 of may to fix it. We hope you enjoy Portugal, Algarve, Lisbon, ... if you need anything, please feel free to contact us at any time. If you return to Altura, or a friend of yours comes to Portugal, we will make a special offer because you did not have wi-fi.
