Fabulous Holiday
The apartment was perfect, we had everything we needed and the location was perfect for us too. We wanted to be close to the Old Town, but once we were in the apartment it was nice and quiet.
Nothing really, everything was great.

Great location
We were pleased with the apartment, it was well appointed and had everything we needed. There were a few niggles, the picture of the balcony is a bit misleading because it’s actually tiny, the shower didn’t drain very well (despite maintenance coming out (neither of us has lots of hair so it wasn’t us causing the blockage), the TV remote wasn’t working, we think the batteries were dead. The pool was empty but it wasn’t really warm enough to swim, but it was disappointing.Having said that, the apartment was perfectly located being a 5 minute walk to the square, 20 minutes to the marina and about 35 minutes walk to the new town. If we were to return to Albufeira we would definitely consider this property again.
