Michelle was a lovely host, easy to communcate with and has a great apartment. The location was quiet and in a location that was easy to get around to other locations. Parking fantastic, rooftop patio was amazing to share wine and sit under the stars. The apartment had whatever you needed to cook a meal if you wanted, and was spacious and tidy. We loved it there!!!!!

The hosts, Michelle and William coud not have been more helpful and quick to respond to our needs or questions. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and well equiped. A small market one block away met most of our needs. Transportation options to Tavira were easy and affordable. I highly recommend this apartment to anyone okay living in a small village.

The property was very clean and well equipped. It was a comfortable space. The host was very informative. The only negative might be the space is a little dated as you can see in the photos in the listing. Would be happy to stay there again.

Host was very accessible and responsive.Location was excellent and parking excellent.Really enjoyable but of course nothing is perfect. The bathtub was slippery and hot water is at a premium.The pillows need to be changed because they are a bit old. The tv took a lot of navigating to get to watch and because we are bedtime tv watchers we missed that.Overall we would stay here again. Tavira is nice and no crowds so very friendly .

Thank you for your comments and I will make sure to ameliorate futur guests experiences by changing the pillows. Als for the bathub their is a rubber mat available next to the bath. The tv program is from the Portuguese official channel. I'm not sure to understand the issue here...

Enjoyed the quaint village of Santa Luzia…Michelle the owner was great to deal with and responded quickly to any queries we had. The location in the eastern part of the Algarve gave us opportunity to explore the areas that are removed from the very touristy parts of the Algarve…Loved the immense beaches!

Great location, competitive pricing, new sun beds on lovely south facing terrace, more than adequate facilities/amenities however lack of air conditioning in bedroom means 4 star rather than 5

Dear Angela, in order to keep our prices competive we have to keep down our expenses aswel. We provided a fan in the sleeping room. The sleeping room is on the north side so it doesn't get that warm only in extreme heat wave. So we don't see the necessity yet to purchase one. But we will keep your suggestion in mind for the futur. Thank you for sharing. Sincerly, Michelle

The apartment was really nice, clean and tidy. Everything you need for a great holiday. The roof terrace is an added bonus where you can catch the late rays of sun and enjoy sitting there having a drink. Thank you, Michelle and Willem, for letting us stay in your lovely apartment.

Nice apartment in a charming town

The whole process of renting this apartment was went very smoothly. Excellent communication with the owner. The apartment we very clean and comfortable and my only complaint was with the owner of the noisy dog on the ground floor. Santa Luzia is a very good base for a holiday in this area. Charming little town with brilliant restaurants.

Perfect for a relaxing holiday . A beautiful location

Great contact with Michelle and Wilhem . Our only disappointment was that in website it states there was a hot tub on roof terrace but that was not the case . The apartment is great and everything and more that you need . Our first visit to Portugal and won’t be our last .

Sorry about the misunderstanding. The hot tub is in the bathroom not on the roof terras. I corrected it on the website. I hope it will be more transparent for futur clients.
