Convenient, everything on hand as described and liked balcony with glimpse of sea view and mixture of light and shade, also seemed a quite quiet location within walking distance (10 mins?) of market but a bit further to the port (for island ferries). Washing machine was useful too.
On arrival, slight problem as address of the property had changed from the one on booking.com website, although Lucia had messaged beforehand the correct address but didn’t make it clear that this was a different / new address from one on website.
The lifts were erratic (touch screen technology).

The hosts were wonderful and kind - our flight was due in at Faro at 23.20 hours but was delayed by 2 hours, the hosts waited until after 2 am for us - and kindly bought us groceries so that we had something to eat and drink. They were so kind and helpful, it was very much appreciated. The apartment is a few minutes walk to Olhao centre and is a couple of minutes walk to the salt plains - where you can walk around and see the stunning birdlife - fancy watching flamingoes on your morning walk!
One thing I should point out - the doors to all the apartment blocks are numbered twice and the old numbers have not been removed- it is very confusing - look for the silver number in the centre above the door - ignore the number/signs to the left of the top of the doors - they are the old ones.
The apartment is spotlessly clean (I am fussy!) and has everything you need - tea, coffee pods, toilet paper, dishwasher/washing machine tablets, soap, plenty of towels, and a change of bedlinen etc. Pool on the roof is great as is watching the sunset there too. If you fancy helping the local dog pound you can walk the dogs at 9.30 am on a Wednesday and Friday morning - meet at the pound and walk the dogs around the salt flats, go under the main road bridge at the back of the Marina Village (on the back way to Lidl).
We found an excellent restaurant in Olhao, up an alleyway opposite the fish/veg market- it is called Gallo/or Galo, I heartedly recommend it, we had the best meal ever in the Algarve. They are very allergy aware and kindly swapped items so I could eat their menu. I hope this helps folk choose where to eat, it has no link to the apartment, (I think!)
We went to Olhao in mid March and the weather was great - two weeks of glorious sunshine!

Great space and roomy with a lovely balcony. Well equipped with good Covid precautions.
Would have benefited from a nice lamp in the living room to provide some low lighting in the evenings as main light was very bright. Some soft cushions on the sofa would also have made it more comfortable.
A noisy neighbour in the opposite block played loud music, argued with friends and insisted on beeping their horn from 2am on our last 3 nights which resulted in my husband sleeping in the living room. Other residents were also upset and the Police were called but had little impact. We were both left very tired.

Fantastic apartment for self catering. Impressed by the cleanliness and range of facilities including a washer/dryer for longer stays. Lovely host ( and her mother) who took their time with us. Location is excellent for a walk to town. 15 mins to the train station. No need for a car here.
Nothing. I realy enjoyed the experience.
