Séjour extra

Nous avons passé une excellente semaine. La maison est ultra confortable, très belle, bien équipée et à 2 pas de la plage et d'un supermarché très bien achalandé. Nous recommandons vivement la Vila Sunshine pour de formidables vacances au bord de la sublime côte d'Algarve.

Vivenda excelente

Excelente na localização ,nas instalações incluindo todo o exterior mas deficiente na limpeza da cozinha, com máquina da loiça a precisar de manutenção pelo que deparamos com copos,pratos ,gavetão de plásticos em deficientes condições de higiene que tivemos de lavar e referimos ainda que foi solicitada a intervenção para a limpeza dos aparelhos de ar condicionado,mas embora tivéssemos passado 3 semanas nesta vivenda foi uma experiência excelente também pela localização,perto da praia mas ao referirmos os aspetos menos positivos desejamos que os mesmos contribuam para a sua resolução
