Luxury 2 bedroom apartment in Foz Palace Residence SPA

The views on the beach were great. There is no view from the condo. Our checking, checkout was flawless. We could have used some coffee pods for the coffee maker. As well only one pod for the dishwasher and washing machine. We needed more toilet paper, had to buy paper towel, no soap, shampoo ,etc. Small things but would enhance our stay. We even had to buy our salt and pepper. The other places we stayed in the Azores and Madeira had supplies to facilitate our stay. Louie even had a basket of local items made on the island. What an ambassador! Anyway, not huge items, as the beds, pillows, and bedding were great. I needed more hangars in the closet but we managed. Too bad, the ad mentions jacuzzi but when we read the literature it hasn't worked since 2019. But it is in the ad. They did write and tell us it was unavailable. So change the ad! All in all, it was a great stay for 2 couples for 1 week. Obrigada. Cathy T.

Very easy, friendly booking and check in process. All exactly as described. Excellent accommodation, spacious and comfortable. 2 minute walk to resort centre. Basement pool, sauna etc if wanted No a/c so would be warm in high season, otherwise highly recommended.

This apartment looks great in the pictures on HomeAway, however it’s even better in reality. It’s super modern and clean, was great size for our family of four and located a stones throw away from the beach. The location is ideal as it’s central to the beach and therefore allows you to easily navigate both sides of the beachfront. There are many restaurants and bars in the vicinity so your spoilt for choice in terms of the volume and variety of cuisines. Tania the property manager was quick to answer any queries that we had and representatives were there on time for check in/out. The indoor pool, spa and games room were a godsend to escape the hottest part of the day, note that the pool is heated. There is allocated underground parking for your hire car, this is great as parking is difficult to find because the apartment is so close to the beach and it also means the car is kept nice and cool. You don’t need a car here if you’re planning on staying in the resort, however we like to explore the coastline and there are some fabulous beaches that you can drive to. My suggestions for improvements to this property would be to add more/more powerful fans, have some better lighting for the bathroom mirrors and perhaps add a smart tv or an Amazon Firestick to allow log in to Netflix/Prime accounts. So if you have one i think it’s worth taking it with you. These are however only very small suggestions and I would definitely stay here again if visiting this resort again. Thanks for the great memories!
