Central with anazing view!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful apartment with a breathtaking view of the ocean. The apartment was well appointed with everything that we needed for our stay . It is within walking distance of old town with all of its restaurants and shop. There is a mini market just 10 minute waking distance where you can purchase essentials.Free parking was always available on the street in front of the entrance to the building. Jose was an excellent host!

Stay in Albufeira

The location is fantastic if you're looking to be close to restaurants, night life, and the beach. It was very spacious for four people and nice to have a washing machine for clothes. Air conditioning is available but at an extra daily charge and has to be enabled upon request. There is construction just outside of the apartment which can make parking difficult and is quite loud at times, but the work is going fast and will probably be finished soon. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Awesome time in Albufeira!

This has been our second stay and we enjoyed it even more than the first time. Excellent location, beautiful views in all directions due to numerous windows. Close to everything you need. The unit matches the description and pictures in the ad. We will definitely be back again.

Great view!

This place had an amazing view and it was easy to navigate Albufeira. It didn’t take long to get down to the beach or the old town. There was some construction occurring in the front of the building which made it challenging for our Bolt driver to find the location but fortunately Veronica was there to help. The property has quite a few stairs so you’ll need to be aware if you’re hauling bags up for an extended stay. The apartment had all the amenities needed including a washer/dryer combo. The only thing I’m not sure if we were aware of was you had to go through the second bedroom to get to the master so there wasn’t as much privacy for the second space. Otherwise the beds were comfortable and we truly enjoyed staying there.

Wonderful Escape

Jose's apartment was everything and more than we hoped for. The unit had all the basics needed for our week and we just had to focus on enjoying the view and the town. Access to the beach, restaurants,old town, grocieres couldn't have better . We have already recommended this spot to friends . We will book again next time we find ourselves visiting the Algarve .

Perfect.

This place was absolutely fantastic! We actually stopped to take one last look out the windows before we left because we were so sad to leave. The location, the view, the warm welcome and easy check-in, and of course the apartment itself were all wonderful. We will definitely recommend and book again next time we visit Albufeira!

Beautiful location and views, poor management

Apartment is perfectly located with breathtaking views, spacious and comfortable. A/c available at extra cost. But, Veronica who manages the apartment is very disorganized, does not respond to WhatsApp messages, was over 30 mins late to check us in even though we communicated multiple tiles exact arrival time. We were also put off by the fact that necessities were not provided such as extra toilet paper and garbage bags. Only 1 bag upon arrival and toll of tootles paper. We stayed for 8 nights and asked to change at least our towels once. We had to call multiple times to get her to come. She said she will be there at 5pm and did not come until 9. I had to text the owner of the apartment to call her everytime we needed something. Jose was very responsive. I would love to come back and stay at the apartment again, but the management needs to change. And just like the previous review stated, we also had ants in the apartment, asked to spray when we were out but it was never done. It’s really unfortunate that such an amazing place so poorly managed.

The most beautiful views of Albuferia

We debated staying in either Lagos or Albuferia and am so happy we chose Jose’s place in Albuferia. The pictures don’t do this place justice and the views from the living room, kitchen and master bedroom can’t be beat. It is also in a very peaceful section of town tucked far away from the stupid crazy section of the strip but just steps away from the beach and many great restaurants. We have never stayed at a Condo where the views were so amazing.

Beautiful apartment with ocean view

We really enjoyed our stay at Jose’s apartment. The ocean view is breathtaking and location is ideal, walking distance to the beach, restaurants and stores. The old town of Albufeira is very nice and quiet at night. Mrs. Veronica was very helpful in showing us the apartment. There was plenty of space for our family of four. Highly recommend!

Great Apartment in a Great Location!

We absolutely loved Jose’s apartment. Every window had a gorgeous view and we loved the little deck on the top floor. It was crazy hot when we were there and the fan in the bedroom was a life saver. The location was great and an easy walk to the beach, restaurants and the marina. We would highly recommend . Thanks for everything, Jose and Veronica!

Great view with good location

Very pleasant experience facilitated by Mrs Veronica. Helped us in and helped us out by arranging a taxi for an early AM departure. Access to restaurants was easy - into old town touristy and away from old town more local Portuguese. It was nice to have access to English speaking TV at night. The apartment is as the VRBO website shows. All is good

Just got back from a lovely week in Albufeira, the apartment was amazing and with truly beautiful views. José the owner was always at the end of the phone if you had questions and was always happy to answer any. Would also recommend booking airport transfer through him too, it felt like we were travelling with an old friend. Overall a fantastic time and felt like home from home. Thank you José for everything

Spectacular Views!

Jose’s place was perfect - just up from the beach and short walking distance to restaurants and bars. His place was very comfortable and had amazing ocean views from every window! Veronica was super nice checking us in however you do have to make sure to contact her when you arrive for the keys. We arrived early and were scrambling to try to find someone who could contact her since we had no calling data on our phones. Overall amazing stay and I would highly recommend this place.

As beautiful as it gets

This property was absolutely beautiful. The view of the beach was stunning. The apartment was a fully equipped as any we have ever stayed in. Everything was thought of. First aid kits, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, a library of books in English and maybe some in other languages as well. Spotlessly clean with everything you would possibly need and just beautiful in every way. The only thing I think was missing or we didn't see was the had to pay a $9 a day charge for use of the air conditioners upon arrival. That being said the rate even with the $9 charge was more than reasonable. The apartment is right in the middle of everything. Grocery store close by, beach just down the steps, Restaurants and shops all close by. We would highly recommend to everyone.

Great Views and Awesome Location

The first thing you will notice about this apartment is the sweeping views of the beach. Windows open up to allow the fresh air cool the apartment as you look out to the ocean. I was greeted by Veronica who gave me a quick tour of the property and it's amenities. She was very friendly and showed me the access routes to the beach, the marina and the supermarket nearby. You have to climb stairs up to the unit, worth mentioning but I did not find this to be an issue. The apartment is fully functional with wifi access. There is a spacious master bedroom with a little balcony, a secondary bedroom loft, kitchen area (fully equipped with a stove and dishwasher), a dining room and a comfy living room. The bathroom (where the washer and dryer are also located) is a bit tight but this is a minor inconvenience. Air conditioning is available but I didn't need it. Access to the boardwalk that leads to the beach is a quick 2 min walk. From there it's another 5-8 min walk to the heart of the town. This is a great location as you are close enough to enjoy the beach, as well as the nightlife in the town, but just distanced enough to retire and relax away from the bustle and noise of it all. Overall this was a great stay.
