1-Bed - Sleeps 4 - Free Parking & Balcony

All good

Nothing

The large bed was comfortable, there was plenty of cutlery, big fridge, nice big bathroom and good shower, front door triple locked, lovely plants on stairs, balcony was nice to sit out in the evening. Extra blankets and we asked for extra towels and we were given them no problem. Washing machine and small clothes horse but very handy. Pool has a toilet and showers to the side and a locked gate so only customers can use with a key card. There is a pizza place a 2 minute walk from the apartment near the roundabout and it was different but nice and very handy for our first night there.

Sliding doors didn't lock very well and the one in the bedroom didn't lock at all but luckily they had metal shutters outside the sliding doors, random stuff left in cupboards some good some really old and a broken trolley bag but plenty of space in them. Pool was in a Central location of the apartments that we had to walk to but not far at all but wasn't expecting that and the loungers are very old but pool is nice. No plants on balcony so very plain looking. The apartment was lovely but a 30 minute walk from the beach so we got bolt taxis which are very cheap and handy. Only 1 or 2 English channels on the TV and no apps.

The host sent clear instructions a couple of weeks before arrival about location, key collection, Wi-Fi access and the swimming pool access etc. On the day of arrival I received a text telling me the apartment was ready. Collecting the keys was as described and easy. Parking was available with plently of available spaces. The apartment was clean and had everything needed to make it your own during your stay. A washing machine was a bonus, being able to launder clothes mid way through a travelling holiday. Air-con was in the living room and main bedroom. The balcony was a plesant place to sit and a sun trap. The location was about 1.2 miles from the old town and just about perfect. Close enough to walk in 35 mins, far enough to be away from the busy areas of Albufeira. A supermarket is a 10 min walk away and there were local restaurants available without walking into the centre of Albufeira.
