Bright apartment in elevated position with wonderful views over marina & surrounding area. Large balcony with very comfortable seating. Spacious pool area. Boiler made loud noises one evening and no hot water so we called agent who came almost immediately and fixed it - great service! However, we realised there was no carbon monoxide detector in the apartment despite having gas boiler + hob. Obviously not required by law in Portugal but, from a renter's safety point, would be reassuring to have. One evening we had an invasion of ants - hundreds of them that hadn't been there previously. We tracked the entry point to under the front door. The odd insect is to be expected in hotter climates, but the amount was unsettling as they were absolutely everywhere. We spent hours getting rid of them. Music festival on in the Marina, With the very loud volume, we assumed it would end around 11pm/midnight as the sound carried up to the apartments however it went on until after 1.30am and even with the doors closed and electric shutters down, it was still extremely loud inside apartment for 3 nights, Might be an idea to mention to future renters. The road into town is very steep and very dark, manageable going down but resulted in getting a taxi back every night. There is an elevator in the block, and approx 9/10 steps up to it, also many steps up to the pool areas. No cleaner service during our week stay even though we paid a cleaning/service charge of almost 200 euros, disappointing.
