Very responsive, proactive and attentive host, who personally checked us in. Property was spotty clean and well furnished with a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of silverware. Great location with a beautiful view and walking distance to multiple eating places.

Plenty of room for 2 couples. The view from balcony was awesome and access to shops and restaurants were plentiful and close by. Easy walking along beach boardwalk and main streets. The kitchen was well equipped and washing machine was very handy. Our only complaints were the mattresses and pillows could use a refresh. Maybe some towels for the beach also. All in all we enjoyed our stay.

Fábio

The best rented apartment I ever had!

It was my first time at Portimao with the family, and as a treat i booked an apartment for 4 nights and 5 days, and everyone sincerely had a amazing time. Location is perfect, 30min to slide and splash and zoomarine, you wake up with the view and sounds of the beach 5 min walk and you diving in!! Great location for night life and restaurants, just perfect!! I sincerely recommend to families and groups!

Stellar flat with great views and location

Experience at the flat was fantastic. David was extremely helpful and responsive. We had to change our plans at the last minute due to a flight delay and David was very accommodating. Great views, perfect location near the beach, parking situation was fantastic, and very clean place. Would definitely stay again.

Stupenda vista mare

Ho soggiornato in questo appartamento quasi due mesi e sono rimasto subito colpito dalla terrazza, con una vista fantastica, posizione strategica ed invidiabile. Un bel appartamento dotato di ogni confort, impeccabile pulizia, servizi e attrezzature fornite... non manca proprio nulla. Proprietari molto gentili e disponibili che ci hanno permesso di trascorrre nella loro casa una perfetta vacanza. Lo terrò in considerazione per le mie prossime vacanze in Algarve e lo consiglio a tutti !!

Grazie per le sue parole, Elio. E 'stato anche per noi un piacere darvi il benvenuto a voi, Anna e Carlo. Speriamo di essere di nuovo a vedere in un prossimo futuro. Grande abbraccio. Iolanda e David

O t2 com vista para o mar

Boa tarde Sr. David, desde já agradecemos pela boa disposição e simpatia com que nos recebeu. Quanto ao apartamento, as condições foram excelentes, estava recheado com tudo o que era necessário, desde da decoração "estilo férias", até aos bens materiais como, micro-ondas, máquina de levar roupa, louça etc.. A vista era espetacular para a praia da Rocha e o local situado também. Sem dúvida que férias em Portimão, será em Miramar! Abraço, até uma próxima.

Localização priveligiada - melhor é difícil

Localização perfeita em frente da praia. A casa tem tudo o que se precisa. A cozinha está equipada e não se sente falta de nada. O prédio é tranquilo. Limpeza q.b. A varanda e a vista proporcionam momentos únicos. Um pouco quente... seria perfeita com ar condicionado A não perder... A repetir...

Sehr zu empfehlen

Bestens ausgestattete Ferienwohnung in super Lage. Werden beim nächsten Besuch von Portimao wieder sofort bei David anfragen ob die Wohnung verfügbar ist. Empfehlung an die Verwandtschaft wurde bereits ausgesprochen. Ein sehr guter Vermieter. Hat uns während des Flughafen-Transfers über Whatsapp begleitet und mitten in der Nacht vor dem Gebäude in Empfang genommen. TOP Obrigado David

vacaciones maravillosas

Nos han encantado nuestras vacaciones en el apartamento de David en Portimao. Somos un matrimonio belga-espanol con dos niños de 4 y 6 anos. El apartamento tenia lo necesario para sentirse como en casa, cocinar y descansar. Pero lo mejor de todo eran las vistas espectaculares desde la habitación y el salón gracias a la galería que daba hacia la playa da Rocha. Allí desayunamos y cenamos. A mediodía comíamos en algún restaurante de la playa que están a 50m y tienen buena relación calidad/precio, y lo mejor un parque y la playa donde los niños pueden jugar sin parar. El Algarve nos ha encantado con sus playas, acantilados y gente maravillosa. Hasta pronto esperamos!
