Luxury 2 bedrooms Apartment with frontline Sea Views Close to Beaches

This recently refurbished first floor apartment was excellent, very tastefully furnished and exceptionally clean. The modern kitchen and bathroom were of a high standard with new appliances. The beds, chairs, couch, and balcony furniture were all very comfortable and a cut above the usual standard. An exceptionally nice apartment that we would happily return to. A car is a must for getting to shops etc. There is a guaranteed parking spot within a few metres of the apartment.

Let's start with the good stuff. Communication with Paula was way beyond 5 stars. Wife and I are not party animals so we loved the location. It was quiet, well-located with a great floor plan and amenities. Never thought of hiking as a vacation option, but plenty of places to explore on the edge of the ocean. And Pria dos Arrifes is a short walk also. We are both early risers and the electric shutters kept so much of the sun out that we both slept until nearly 9:00 AM every day. (Wish I could do that at home)! We did have a rental car which made everything super easy (shopping, parking near the Marina and then walking to Old Town, beaches that are a little too far to walk). But I could see that a car may not be a needed by everyone. Having a dedicated parking spot was a big plus. It was not a deal breaker but we did find going to the nearby restaurant to swim a minor inconvenience. We would have preferred a bit more privacy. There were some days of the week when the crowd was minimal. Again, the pool was not a deal breaker as we had other options. (Back to the car rental again...a nicety NOT a necessity). If I were forced to list one negative it would be the size of the bathroom. It was very clean and ultra-modern. But (other than the shower) was definitely geared for one person at a time. Would not stop us from a return visit and we are already planning 2026 where this condo is at the top of the rental list. Once again...obrigado to Paula!

Very comforable stay. Convenient to everything.

First off, this is a lovely apartment. And the view is epic. The apartment is spotlessly clean, has brand new appliances and most essentials for the kitchen. What would have made it better: 1. Detailed instructions for finding the rental. Even the local drivers didn't understand how to get there with the address given. We finally started giving the address of the restaurant out the back gate and down the street and meeting them there. 2. Directions for using appliances and the TV system. They were very different from what we were used to and made the first few days very challenging. Paula, the manager, was lovely to work with - I would just think providing basic information would result in a more satisfying experience.
