Luxury Duplex with pool

Property was very clean, well equipped and everything worked. It was a great location, an ideal base for exploring the Algarve/Spain (45mins to FARO, <2hrs to Seville, 1hr 15min to Alvor) or just hang around Cabanas. Plenty of parking on streets outside. All rooms had AC, and the TV had Netflix to log in. Wifi was good throughout the apartment. Plenty of towels. Bottle of water and wine on arrival was a lovely touch 👌 Owner (Maria) and host (Leonore) were very obliging and accommodating of our early arrival, and easily contactable for any issue. Cabanas is a lovely village, very family friendly . Safe and quiet, but not too quiet, with some lovely restaurants, shops and bars. (Its not Albuferia in a good way). Locals friendly. Beers for €1.50 in some of the pubs! Blue Flag Beach was accessed via boat trip (2mins).

10/10

Location is great, very close to beach, shops, bars and restaurants.. Very clean and spacious.. loads of terraces. Air Conditioning in bedroom strong. Very helpful host Maria, super friendly Leonour the cleaner there to meet us .. also lovely though doesn't speak much English but we got through with classroom French and Marioe was always on hand through WhatsApp . Great value for Money

Pool area is basic no loungers etc, but big enough for a good swim , that's all really

The apartment was very spacious for the 3 of us. Lovely to have the outside space - 3 balconies! It was well located in Cabanas and easy transport to Tavira and other places along the coast by bus or train. Had a couple of really good boat trips arranged from Cabanas and very good restaurants close at hand.

Unfortunately there had been miscommunication with the owner ( who lives in Lisbon) and no one was there to let us in on arrival - Resulting in leaving telephone messages & a couple of rather hot hours outside while we waited for response from her. We then had trouble with the locks which resulted in a lot of waiting around on the first full day of our week away. Leonor (who looks after the property in Cabanas) did all she could to try and help despite our lack of Portuguese and her lack of English ( she does speak very good French though!). Leonor put in extra time helping to sort out these problems - do hope that the owner recognises this. WiFi was poor in the apartment.
