High above the beach, and at the top of the building, the ocean breeze keeps the condo cool, even when it's quite hot on the ground. Feels lovely. If air is so still and hot the a/c is essential, the a/c is tolerable.Location not far from a supermarket makes small meals cheap and easy. Many of the restaurants around are great! But nothing opens before 9am, restaurants later.Prepare for hilly walking. Even the all down the block to the supermarket is work. Beach is a long way down.Accessible to taxis if you have plans for more than beach and bars. A great choice for us over all, despite beastly heat on the ground

The apartment was exactly as listed, and Helen was an excellent manager. Just be sure to bring your earplugs as the bar across the street goes very late (3AM) and can be quite noisy. If you with to join them, ignore the previous statement !😎

Brilliant wee apartment

Firstly Helen is a fantastic host and is very quick to respond if you have any questions. Helen has thought of everything you may need for a home away from home. The apartment is compact but ample room for 2. The pool area is nice and is maintained. The location is superb, 5 mins walk if that to the old town itself, you are near beautiful beaches. We walked to the marina a few times, takes about 20mins. Helen told us about some lovely cove beaches which are gorgeous. Overall great holiday although weather was not great Would highly recommend and we would definitely stay agin. Thanks Helen.

A beautiful property in a fabulous location and lovely sea views

The apartment was big enough for two people. It was spotless and had everything you needed for a week self catering. It was in a fab location, just a few minutes away from the beach and the old town square. Helen the owner was amazing. Ricky in the reception was also brilliant. They couldn't do enough for you. I would definitely use this apartment again. Thank you for a brilliant week.

Highly recommended!!

In spite of the very unseasonable weather in Albufeira (most rainfall in this period for over 40 years!?) we absolutely loved our little break here in Bayview 503. The apartment was perfectly located on the edge of the Old Town, a 5 minute walk from the beach and 15 mins from the Marina. Far enough away from the bar and club area to not be disturbed by late night revelry but close enough to join in if we were in the mood!! We were on quite a tight budget so the small but well equipped kitchen was ideal for making simple breakfasts and evening meals so we could splash out on a few restaurant treats! The weather was chilly so we didn’t spend a whole lot of time sitting on the balcony but the sea view was lovely. The bed was comfortable and there was enough room in the built in wardrobe to unpack all our clothes. The bathroom was big enough and the shower was great but it did get a bit steamy as there wasn’t any extractor fan and no window….We had some fabulous walks along the beaches in Albufeira and along the coast either side of the town. We took a day trip to Lagos (bus ride there and train back) to check out somewhere else we considered basing ourselves, and although we enjoyed it, we were happy to come back ‘home’ to out little apartment in Albufeira!! Helen was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had on local supermarkets, airport transfers etc etc etc and hopefully we will have the opportunity to make a return trip in the autumn.
