Parking was perfect, your own space in a secure underground garage. Apartment was spacious, clean, light, very comfortable. Cleaned and made up daily. Outdoor pools were warm, not heated but it was September and still very warm, gardens were exceptionally well kept. Really helpful staff, a minor mechanical issue resolved in less then 20mins by the maintenance team. Would definitely visit again.

Huge apartments, great location 15 mins walk from Praia da rocha, comfy beds and nice pool, as well as plenty of secure, underground parking. Would be great for a long stay or short. Would maybe benefit from a bar by the pool (I'd have used it!) and there's not a lot of amenities around the area (quite residential) but a lovely place to stay overall.

Stunning Location And Property

My second visit to this stunning apartment overlooking the River Arade. Apartments are spacious and clean and situated in a central location for beautiful traditional villages and the more touristy Praia’s. Staff are helpful and polite with very good English. The gardens are immaculate with swing chairs, sun beds and loungers around an amazing pool. Communal areas are relaxed and quiet. There are no negatives about this place and we will be returning.

Super clean, modern building with lovely helpful reception staff. We really liked the large apartment and it's balcony which was easily big enough to do our morning exercise routine, then sit and have coffee whilst watching the cruise ship coming in. 15 min light walk to Praia De Rocha, similar to Portimao but i wouldn't bother!
