We wish we had booked for me than 3 nights! We highly recommend staying here. The terrace and views were incredible. We were comfortable and had everything we needed. Lovely neighbors and lots to do in the area. A couple of great restaurants within a few minutes drive. Try the goose mollusks at Ferragudo Terrace!

Perfect location

Ferragudo is off the beaten path and is a lovely village from which travelers can take day trips east, west and north! The apartment met our needs perfectly. Would suggest instructions for washing machine and AC for us non-Europeans, but would totally book this apartment again!

Awesome!

The property is in a private location and had excellent views of the coast line. There was quick access to the beach. You’ll need to drive to/from any restaurants. The hot tub is mediocre and was a little dirty, but good communication with owner.

A great getaway

I very much enjoyed staying here in Ferragudo. Location was perfect. Not far from town where a number of outdoor restaurants are clustered and a few small grocery stores are located, or Portimao where larger supermarkets are. It was nice to be far enough away from these town areas to avoid population, but close enough to get supplies or eat out. The unit is perfect for getting away. It is in a nice complex that was easy to get to and was low-key with low noise. There is also a very good Moroccan themed restaurant in the facility complex within walking distance. The proximity to the beaches was ideal - about a 5-10 minute walk through cliff trails which take you to the beaches. The cliff views are spectacular, and the beaches are beyond description for beauty, size and location. The unit was very comfortable to stay at (I was solo), but I was there only a few days and didn't really have the opportunity or need to make extensive meals in the kitchen, although it is fully equipped to handle that for longer stays. It was very suitable for a small number of people to stay at comfortably for extended time. The outdoor deck has great views of the water as well, and for the sky at night (which was the best time to be on the deck). I plan on returning next year for a longer stay. Overall, it was great and I highly recommend!

Appartamento molto bello e ben organizzato con terrazza e vista meravigliosa. Non avevamo capito dalle foto e dall’annuncio che faceva parte di un grande comprensorio, seppur bello, ma con appartamenti (e terrazze) uno continuo all’altro.

Beautiful unit! Relaxing. Great terrace/balcony. Quiet! All questions to host were answered quickly. Only drawback was that we weren’t aware there were no conveniences (restaurants, shopping, etc) within walking distance. But I suppose that’s part of the charm of the location ! Uber is inexpensive. Aldi and Lidl are a short drive away. We would return.

Heerlijk uitzicht over de zee

Heel handig de sleutel in zo'n doosje met cijferslot. Prachtig terras. Gezellig ingericht huis. Keuken prima in orde. Allerlei benodigdheden voorradig. Enige minpuntje: douchen in bad met badgordijn. Heerlijke omgeving. Wij hebben iedere dag heerlijk gewandeld en daarna naar het strand geweest. We zijn dus niet veel in het huisje geweest, maar het was een heerlijke uitgangspositie.

Amazing stay in a beautiful OceanTerrace apartment

The apartment is beautiful with the most stunning views. We very much enjoyed looking out over the lovely Algarve coastline from almost every part of the apartment. The apartment was clean and comfortable and Paula communicated very promptly at all points. We will visit again.

Toller Platz, schönes Appartment, toller Sonnenuntergang

Das Appartment hat alles gehalten, was bei FEWO-Direkt versprochen worden ist. Riesengroße Terrasse, Whirlpool, gutes Bett, liebevolle Einrichtung. Erst dachten wir, oh je, eine Terrassenanlage, aber später gefiel es uns ausnehmend gut. Ales ist da, sogar eine Waschmaschine, Stereoanlage mit Bluetooth. Ich konnte meine Sportify Musik hören. Das Appartment können wir nur weiterempfehlen. Auch unser Zwergschnauer Paul liebte das Haus.

Very nice view.

A bit difficult to find at first, but we managed. Home is very clean and there is everything you could need, except for toilet paper; only one roll was supplied. The bed was just ok, it was very firm. Three tiny flat as a pancake for two people? I had a neck ache every morning. The sheets were soft and the duvet kept us cozy on some very cold nights. Power is inadequate; we tripped the circuit breaker five times! While cooking we had on the heating and two lights and the breaker tripped! It was wonderful that a large selection of seasonings and other cooking essentials were provided! It makes cooking away from home very easy.

To be repeated...

We spent a few days in October in this nicely decorated and well equipped apartment. It’s not the newest one regarding the installation but everything was neat and clean and there was nothing really important to complain about despite of the electrical installation (the main fuse couldn’t stand cooking and the heating of the hot tub at the same time), the hot tub didn’t really get warm and the WiFi was not too fast and reliable but again, nothing really relevant. We think we will come back to enjoy the beautiful coast which is directly behind the garden. Thank you very much for hosting us!! Best regards, Ines and Georg

The apartment was well appointed, spotlessly clean with a spectacular view!

The Ferragudo area is a beautiful part of the Algarve and we enjoyed our stay very much. Having visited in the winter it's worth noting alot of restaurants are closed for the season . Because we arrived on a Sunday even the local resort restaurant Lux was closed. It's a perfect location for relaxing, enjoying the hot tub and having a few meals in.

This did not disappoint, wonderful accommodation in a lovely area.

We went there for my sons wedding and had never been to the area before. All the other guests stayed locally in the area and we attended a lot of social occasions whilst there. It was very hard to go to some of these though as our accommodation was so lovely and peaceful with stunning views. If I were to go back to the Algarve I would without doubt try to get this apartment again as it was so delightful.

We loved staying here - it was spacious, comfortable and perfect for a few days. The deck is great with a nice view and a pretty walk to the lighthouse nearby.

They are really very nice and polite people and treat our place beautifully, leaving everything very clean and tidy. I highly recommend them to the entire Homeaway community and hope to see them again ! All the best, Paula
