Great location in Luz

On our third stay in Cristaluz, apartment has everything we need. We rent a car but you don’t need one to get around. The location is perfect and the heated pool fantastic. Also must mention communication with the hosts was brilliant. Top apartment!

I can thoroughly recommend this property. The location is excellent and has everything that you could possibly need. It’s very clean with comfortable beds. The balcony/terrace is probably the best in the block of apartments and is perfect for the pool. I just wish we had booked longer. Check in etc was very easy with the use of a key safe box. There is also a designated parking spot. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful time in Praia da Luz in this Appartment. Had the heated pool to ourselves almost all the time. The Appartment is big and the sofas are super comfy. There is no air conditioning but there are big ventilators in the rooms that provide fresh air when needed. Located aprox 500m from the beach, but it is a rather steep walk as the village is constructed uphill. We would come back anytime. Recommendation!

Exceeded expectations

A smashing apartment, in every way. A lovely spot, clean and well furnished, particularly the electric reclining 3 piece suite. Outside the huge terrace gets the sun almost all day. The pool just a few steps away was nicely heated during our stay. I would mention that it slopes very rapidly from 0.7 metres to 1.9 metres We intend to book again, and given the huge choice available, that says it all for me. Loved it

Amazing property

We, 2 adult and 2 teenagers, had two marvellous weeks in Crista Luz. The apparment was exellent with four direct accesses to the terrace and also a very easy direct access to the pool area. The apparment was also well equpiment with a spacious kitchen and nice bedrooms. We were more or less allways outside and enjoyed the sun and relaxed atmosphere. The host was very easy to contact for information and the cheeck in was plainly without any problem. We can strongly recomend this for a relaxed and "easy life" holiday.

Cristaluz

Great apartment in really good location. Unfortunately one of the apartments in the block is being fully renovated and this was extremely noisy but Patricia did over to get us a move and dealt with it very promptly. The pool is advertised as heated but it definitely wasn’t and other residents agreed. Would definitely recommend this apartment.

Delighted you loved the apartment and would recommend it to others. Unfortunately renovations to another Apt occurred during your stay, to the surprise & anger of owners/residents. Associated power outages affected the pool heating. We understand the noisy works are now over and we are sorry about inconvenience caused.

Could be awesome with a little updating!

We stayed for a month and loved the location and the town of Luz, easily walkable from the apartment. Unfortunately we had a lot of rain the first three weeks so couldn't enjoy the lovely patio as we would have liked. We found the living room furniture to be rather uncomfortable and very dated, but the beds were very comfortable. There are only 3 chairs at the dining room table which made it difficult for having friends join us for a meal. We were told the 4th chair was broken but there was no replacement offered. The kitchen is pretty well equipped but some of the utensils need replacing as does the stove-top vent, which was very greasy. The toaster wasn't functioning properly but was promptly replaced by the managers. We appreciated the weekly clean and bi-weekly towel change. Oh, and the TV was awesome! The pool would have been great too, if the weather had been warmer.

Bathrooms

At first things went well with the exception of the bathrooms. The main bath shower couldn’t be used because the shower head wasn’t secure. We reported this to the cleaners and they tried to fix it. He couldn’t so he called a plumber who came today and fixed it. You cannot use the toilet properly as the space between it and the sink is too close. The second bath shower leaked in the corner unaware to me. The water had run out of the bathroom into the bedroom and when I left the bathroom I slipped on the water, fell and I broke two bones in my left wrist. I am now in a splint and sling and see the surgeon again in two weeks to see if the bones will heal on their own. If not I face surgery. The plumber confirmed today there was a leak and hopefully fixed it. So although we like the location of the condo and its proximity to the beach obviously there have been serious concerns

We were very sorry to hear about your accident, and sincerely hope you’ll have a full and speedy recovery and that you’ll enjoy the rest of your stay in Luz. It’s good to know that the apt managers were on hand with assistance once alerted to the problem and that the issues were resolved as promptly as possible. The apartment is well-maintained by its conscientious owner ,and the managers are efficient and attentive should a problem arise. However, leaks and other issues can arise at the best of times but we’re so sorry for what happened during your stay. The convenient location is a real bonus, and we do hope your follow-on booking for the next few weeks in the apartment goes well and that you’ll continue to enjoy walks to the beach, the promenade and the best of the local foods, facilities and sunshine!

Het perfecte appartement! Super schoon dankzij de managers. Zeer groot terras met veel privacy en slechts met een paar treetjes verwijderd van het heerlijke zwembad! Geen airco maar dankzij de ventilatoren in de slaapkamers blijft het heerlijk koel. Alles was eigenlijk perfect! Heerlijk rustig ook! Op loopafstand van restaurants, het strand en kleine supermarkten. De eigenaar reageert ook snel en is vriendelijk.

Wat een fijn appartement! Ruim en heel schoon. Fijne keuken met meer dan genoeg aan benodigdheden. Heerlijke bank en fauteuils om op te relaxen na een dag eropuit geweest te zijn. Uiteraard is het verwarmde zwembad een grote pluspunt!Ook leuk is om nog een stukje oceaan te zien vanaf terras. Bedden liggen prima al heeft een ervan een kuilvorming. In een paar minuten loop je naar de supermarkt met klein koffietentje voor je take away koffie en nog een paar minuten meer ben je bij de boulevard en strand. We hebben daar goed van genoten!Een eigen makkelijk toegankelijke parkeerplaats is ook heel fijn. De host reageerde snel, vriendelijk en heel attent.Luz en deze accomodatie is een prima plek om de Algarve verder te ontdekken.

Perfekte Wohnung für Familien

Wir hatten 10 wunderschöne Tage in der Wohnung, der es an nichts mangelt. Sehr geräumig und voll ausgestattet mit Mikrowelle, Waschmaschine etc. war es perfekt für unsere Familie (Kinder sind 2 und 5). Absolutes Highlight ist der beheizte Pool durch ein Tor gesichert direkt vor der Terrasse liegt. Zum Stand von Luz sind es c. 10 min zu Fuß, was völlig in Ordnung ist, da man sowieso meist mit dem Mietwagen die Stände der Umgebung erkundet. Fünf Sterne - wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!
