Prainha Lounge

The location of both the apartment on the complex, next to reception, supermarket & resturarant, and the location of the complex, next to the beach, halfway between Alvor & Portimao ! The size of the apartment and the outside patio area were huge. Everything was provided even, soap in the bathroom, washing up liquid & tea towels. The communication with the hosts was very good.

The woman on the complex/apartments reception was very unhelpful and actually quite rude. Although it says you have access to the “Atlantic Pool” (which is fantastic), you have to pay for the sunbeds & umbrellas around the pool (€25 per day) which is a lot of money on top of what you pay for the apartment especially if you want to use the oool every day. I feel that should be negotiated with the complex by the Hosts to either be free or for a token charge of maybe €5 per day. The lift down to the beach wasn’t working, which meant that anyone with a physical disability would really struggle to get down to the beach.

De locatie was prima maar ook de goed uitgeruste keuken met wasmachine, afwasmachine, Nespresso apparaat en vriezer. De douche was ook heerlijk, alleen het douchegordijn is dan wat minder prettig. De contacten met de verhuurder waren super, zij reageerden snel en to the point.

De inrichting en de staat van de badkamer waren iets gedateerd maar daar was de prijs ook naar.

As 2 árvores à frente do pátio, além de serem lindas, dão uma sombra deliciosa. O ambiente do aldeamento é muito descontraído e tranquilo. Tudo fica próximo e acessível.

As camas poderiam ser melhores. A decoração e disposição de mobiliário podiam ser melhoradas.

The unit is in a great location, close to the beach and restaurants in Alvor. There is a wonderful boardwalk along the beach very close by. The kitchen has been updated and has the necessary accoutrements for cooking and eating. Two of the four twin mattresses seemed newer and were comfortable. It has plenty of outdoor porch space. A staff person met us upon arrival and showed us the various features of the unit.

Besides the kitchen, the unit is dated and in need of updating. The toilet doesn’t flush properly. There were no toiletries provided, no coffee pods, paper towels, napkins, basic spices. Two of the four twin mattresses are springy and need to be replaced. The living room furniture is stained. There were hairs on the bathroom floor when we arrived.
