Absolutely stunning apartment. Probably one of the best we've ever stayed in. The view from the balcony is breathtaking. Location is amazing just above the main square of the old town (100 steps keeps you fit!). We would not hesitate to stay again.

Arrived at the property and was greeted upon arrival & shown around, towels/bedding changed half way through our stay. We stayed 10 nights, 2 adults, 2 kids (9&6). Property was spotless as was the complex. Everything we needed in the apartment for self catering. It was a really good size apartment with the most amazing view, roof terrace was in the sun all day. Fantastic location in the old town, 5 min walk to the square, where we ate out every night. Felt very safe in the apartment/complex. Quiet and peaceful. We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely return. Super helpful host.

Made our vacation!

We just loved staying in the penthouse. The views truly are stunning. We would walk downtown for the morning, come back for the view and a rest and then join the fun downtown in the evening. You will not regret staying here!

Apartment with Amazing View of Albufeira

We had an amazing stay in the apartment in Albufeira. It is in a fantastic location, easy walking distance to the old square, restaurants, beach and grocery stores. Our kids loved the pools and the large balcony with beautiful views of the town was a definite bonus. We can’t wait to return!

Excellent stay

We spent a brilliant 8 night here. The apartment itself was very good, very clean and the view from the balcony is just amazing. The complex is perfect for the old town, just 5 mins down the steps. It was great to have use of the pool in the complex and the other facilities in the hotel next to it as well. Communication with Shane and the meeting rep was excellent It

Short stay in Albufeira

Fantastic one bed penthouse apartment with amazing ocean views and huge balcony off the main living area. Everything you need for a very comfortable stay. Apartment pool is a little small but you can access the large pool in the hotel opposite which is part of the same complex. Would I stay here again? Without a doubt.

Stunning Penthouse Apartment with Amazing Seaviews

Beautiful penthouse apartment with stunning seaviews. The location is ideal, only a short walk to the old town. Very modern and well equipped apartment, had everything we needed and more to enjoy our stay. The host Shane was so helpful and a pleasure to deal with, checked in with us to make sure all was ok. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this property if you are considering visiting Albufeira. An added bonus was the use of the facilities of the hotel across the road, the staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Not enough characters for a full summary

Lovely views, well stocked kitchen. Needs a new shower curtain, sofa bed is poor. Met by a lovely guy Kevin (property management), super helpful and gave some great recommendations. Unfortunately, we had a late flight also delayed. On arrival we got the kids ready for bed, unpacked and realised that the doors to the balcony didn’t lock and the key barrel in the safe was pushed out - it was late so we moved our children to the main bedroom and had a poor nights sleep all together. Next morning I contacted Kevin and the host Shane, on the phone Kevin was very frank telling us it was unlikely the lock could be fixed over the weekend. Shane then said Kevin would come over. 2 1/2hrs later Kevin visited but one of the doors was missing its latch entirely and my partner could easily open it from outside. We told Kevin we weren’t comfortable staying and would be looking to move elsewhere, he said he understood and told us where to leave the keys. I repeated this to Shane also requesting a refund for subsequent nights - he ignored this and insisted the maintenance man was going to try and get the part and come to fix. Around 1pm I contacted vrbo, they agreed with a refund so we packed and went to another place to enjoy our next 6 days. Following, Shane’s sent angry emails demanding where keys were and that the maintenance man was left waiting outside because we had left and that it was sorted by 5pm and he thinks we shouldn’t have left.

Response from VrboOwner on 8 June 2025
Thank you for your review. I would like to clarify a few important points: You first contacted me at 9 AM regarding the balcony door not locking. Our property manager Kevin was at the property by 10.30 AM to assess the issue. When it was determined that a part was needed and that his usual locksmith contact would not be available that day, I immediately reached out to the complex owners—trusted friends of ours—who arranged for their maintenance technician to attend by 1 PM. Unfortunately, you had already vacated the property before repairs could be made. The door was fully repaired that same afternoon. Regarding the safe, it was not broken. The design of the safe allows the barrel to be removable when the safe is not locked, which is standard for that model. We have been renting our penthouse for over 15 years and have consistently received excellent feedback. Guest satisfaction and safety have always been our top priorities. While I regret that you chose to leave early, we responded promptly and appropriately. We wish you all the best with your future travels.

Great Penthouse Apartment

We had a great experience from start to finish. The apartment is located in a beautiful hotel complex with several pools and fantastic facilities. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay and the owner and local contact were always on hand for any queries. The location is brilliant, just a 5 min walk to the Old Town, a 10 min walk to Aldi or Lidl and a short Uber ride to the New Town Strip or Zoomarine. There were so many choices for restaurants and bars and some great entertainment in the Old Town. Would highly recommend it, we'll definitely go back!👌🏻

Fantastic location with great customer service !

Having just returned from a 10 night stay, I felt I needed to post a quick summary of our stay. It would take me to long to list all the positives about our stay in this Penthouse Apartment, but my top 3 points would be, Number 1, Location, literally a 5min walk down the famous 100 steps to the old town and 10min walk to the beach, only €3 in a taxi back up from old town if you have been over indulging on the Beer ! Number 2, the apartment itself has everything you could ask for, the View from the apartment is truly amazing, it's spotlessly clean, air con for those hot nights and the private pool is great for the Kids and Adults ! Numer 3, would have to be the communication from the owner Shane. Shane has a key holder (Nicola) who looks after you on arrival with keys and gives a quick tour of the do's and do not's for your stay. Shane was so helpful when booking and couldn't do enough to help organise our booking and also sorted us with our transport from the Airport with Vintage Algarve Travel, a very professional service. All in all Shane was a true gentleman and couldn't do enough to help us enjoy our stay. I highly recommend this Apartment for couples and family's and a fantastic location in a beatiful part of the Algarve. Next Year Booked already ! 🌞

Perfect accomodation

We stayed here with our baby and it proved the perfect accomodation. The penthouse apartment is finished with modern furniture and has everything you could possibly need from sun loungers (perfect sun spot over looking the complex and sea), a music system, a range of tv stations, etc. The location is a real advantage as it was only a few minutes down to the beach and restaurants . We have stayed in other apartments in this complex but this apartment is without doubt of a much superior standard. Spotlessly clean , impressive views and very spacious. I highly recommend it!

Brillian

I have stayed at this block of appartments for the past four years and this is definately the best appartment. The appartment has everything you could need for it is like home from home with luxury. I can't say enough about it. I will definately be booking again. It has fantastic views and you could nearly spend the whole time on the balcony. I find the people who book here are always friendly and the block of appartments are kept very well. It is close to the town square just 100 steps away and they sound worse than they actually are.

Excellent Apartment

This apartment is everything and more that the advertisement says it is. The views are second to none with sun all day on the large south facing balcony. The apartment is very well equipped with every thing you will need provided, even to the beach towels. The booking process was simple and trouble free and the owner Shane couldn't have been more helpful. We will be returning again in 2015 for another two weeks.
