As you will see from my other reviews we have consistently received 10/10 This traveller was difficult from the moment they arrived, so it didn’t surprise me that they left a bad review. The pool is not heated, most outdoor pools in Portugal aren’t, so I have no control over the temperature on a pool. There are wires in the drinks cabinet, jig the food cupboard, as there is in cupboard lighting. The cat poo was actually leaves from a nearby tree, there are also numerous ways to walk to the pool to avoid that if you wish. Cat poo doesn’t look like little round rocks. No guest has ever reported bugs, equally neither did this guest during their stay. It clearly states to contact us immediately if there are any issues (on a pre welcome pack and within the apartment) this guest never did raise this. Also we did a kind thing and leave some drinks for them when they arrived, I’m not sure why this is seen as a bad thing and not a kind gesture. I think this guest wanted to stay in a 5 star hotel, but decided to self catering, then realised they missed fluffy dressing gowns and slippers

Lovely place

Myself along with 3 friends stayed here for a long weekend to attend a wedding. The apartment was lovely, it had a great pool and perfect walking distance to old town. The owners Matt and Lisa were fantastic from the moment I booked with great communication. They happily answered any questions I had and helped book our airport transfers (who were also very reliable).

Happiness is a home away from home!

The view was amazing! Lots of exercise walking to and from the property (very steep hill). Brightness inside and outside always. Ample escapes from the heat by the way the rooms are laid out. Comfortably equipped kitchen. Great place to stay, would highly recommend it.

Albufeira

Excellent location for Old Town and surrounding area . Nice view overlooking the old town , not quite high up enough to see the beaches . Excellent king bed . Our only issue was possibly an upgrade in a coffee maker , and pots and pans , and access to the unused ping pong and pool rooms , in case of rainy days . All very minor issues really .

Charged for new drawers we supposedly left a mark on

On arrival balcony dirty and needed weeding but we swept up n overlooked this. 1st time using kitchen sink noticed a leak underneath. We tightened pipe work and again thought nothing more about it. 1st night having showers only 2 of us managed to shower before water turning cold as we did not realise it came from a water tank. Iron and ironing board broken, replacement iron sent the following day. During our stay we experienced numerous power cuts which left us unable to use our phones or have a hot shower. However after our departure we began receiving messages asking about a stain on top of a chest of drawers. We informed them we had no recollection of seeing or causing this, but despite this we were charged £80 for a new set of drawers. We feel this was unjustified as they were already well worn and from the picture they sent of the faint mark it looked like they could easily have painted over the top of it, as we'll as the numerous issues we encountered with the property that we didn't make an issue of. We have been coming to Portugal for a number of years now and this the 1st property we have ever had a poor experience with and would not return to.

Lesley, we were so chuffed you chose to stay at our property. I appreciate you have left a bad review simply because of the fact you were charged for damaging the property. The comments in which you have left you were unable to back up with evidence, which we asked for, also the review you left in our guest book in the apartment was positive, which proves you have left an untrue review. I’m deeply sorry there were a few power cuts, this is way beyond our control and was because the electricity company were doing work outside at the time. As explained we only charged you HALF of what it’s going to cost us to fix the damage which was caused as a gesture of good will (because of power cuts that again were out of our control) If you look at the other reviews, you’ll noticed you’re the only negative one. This again is due to the property being damaged and you being charged. I’m very saddened that you have done this

Great Stay Near Old Town

Our stay here made our visit to Albufeira so wonderful. The proximity to the beach and Old Town were perfect for our family. The master bedroom was great to give us adults some space, the kids loved the pool and view couldn't be beat. Communication with the hosts was awesome and they provided so much helpful information. Thank you!

Een heerlijk verblijf

Het appartement van Matt en Lisa is ruim en modern ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. De airco in alle kamers is heerlijk. Het uitzicht op de stad is prachtig. Het zwembad is ruim en de ligstoelen waren nooit vol. Vanuit het terras van het appartement ben je zo bij het zwembad. De geluiden die uit de stad komen, hoor je in de slaapkamers niet. Het oude centrum is op prima loopafstand. We hebben een heerlijke vakantie gehad! Het appartement is echt aan te bevelen.
