Beautiful apartment in a great location. Plenty of space in the apartment with amazing views. Plenty of bars and restaurants below on the marina, so not far to go for food or drink, 15/ 20 minutes walk to Old town or beach, or you can get an Uber for €4:50. Stuart was an excellent host, answering all my queries throughout the booking process and lead up to the holiday. I could not fault this apartment in any way whatsoever. I will definitely be back again, hopefully sooner rather than later and I would definitely recommend this apartment to family and friends.
Thank you Stuart and Caroline for an amazing stay.

On arrival we was met at the apartment by a lovely man who's name i can't remember who showed us around the apartment, and the first thing we noticed was how spacious it was, much bigger than the pictures we had seen, and we could not help but notice the amazing view from the balcony overlooking the marina, we arrived at night so it was all lit up and bustling with life along the marina below, the property itself was very clean and had all that we needed for our stay in albufeira.
There was only two of us so we had a choice of bedrooms, two bathrooms was a bonus here so we had one each, the balconies are great for sitting and watching the boats & yachts coming and going while having a morning coffee or an evening meal.
I was also glad it had a lift as i have a bad hip so walking up stairs wouldn't have been comfortable,
The pool was lovely not too cold and great for a dip and sun loungers, this place overall was a delight and a great find, probably the best apartment we have stayed in, and we have been to albufeira several times.
Great as a base for those long walks in the sunshine and close proximity to the old town.
The hosts Stewart and Caroline communications with us every step of the way was very professional and and helpful and i would like to thank them for letting us stay in their beautiful, spacious and amazing view apartment.
Cheers

We were warmly greeted by the property manager who explained everything and the place was clean. It is also spacious with easy parking and ability to do laundry. If you are looking for being close to activities and don't mind some noise, this is a great location. It is over some bars and an arcade.

We stayed in Stuart’s and Caroline’s apartment for 5 weeks and could have stayed longer. The balconies overlooking the marina were perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon read. The apartment had everything we needed and the walk to and from Old Town was great. If we didn’t want to walk, the bus was close by. The Irish Pub below us was a friendly local spot for meeting people and watching sports. Lisa, who met us on our arrival was helpful and both she and Stuart were available to answer any questions we had. My only criticism would be a more comfortable couch would be perfect. We loved it.

I contacted our host a few times and always received a rapid response. Our apartment was very nice and met our needs. Future trips to the Algarve will start with requesting the same apartment complex. We traveled on day trips throughout the area and this was the perfect launching and landing point.

This apartment is fabulous, so clean and spacious with everything you need, the quality of the apartment, location and cleanliness was excellent. The added extras for the pool etc were a welcome surprise and I purchased a beach throw and added to these along with toiletries etc so future guests could also benefit. Stuart provided a first class service. If you book this apartment you will not be disappointed. Thank you for a fabulous week.

Couldn't have found a better place, some nice bars and restaurants if you didn't fancy the hustle and bustle of the old town.
A lovely 15 minute walk into the town and lovely beach or if you're feeling lazy spending €5 will get you to other beaches in different directions.
Will definitely return.

Lovely apartment in a great location busy but not too busy. A nice walk into the old town and lovely views of the harbour. The pool area was quiet so getting beds was fine for us. Overall we really enjoyed our holiday and the apartment had everything we needed.

The verandah overlooking the marina was exactly as pictured, but the pool you see in the photos is for the opposite building. That was disappointing for us as we planned to hang out at the pool and let our 85 year old mother with mobility problems sit on the balcony so that we could see her and vice versa. We couldn’t do that. It is important for guests to know that they can’t see the pool from the balcony especially if they have children who are old enough to be at the pool but parents still want to keep an eye on them.
Getting a wheelchair down to the marina was very awkward, because our lift went to -1,then we had to get off there, find a pull-up garage door, that got us into another garage, then we had to find another lift to take us to -2. Unfortunately the property manager didn’t tell or show us how to get down to the marina and we ended up having our first lunch at a little bakery across the road from our apt. We eventually called the property manager and asked how to get down to the marina. He gave us a quick explanation but in hindsight we realized he didn’t know exactly himself. It was through people in the garage that we figured out the puzzle. Part of the problem was that our building lift only went to -1 because there is a go cart area on -2. So just imagine us trying to figure this out on our first day pushing a wheelchair in and out of lifts and garages and not having a clue.
We called the property manager when we realized we couldn’t get the tv working. He told us to try various thing to no avail. He called the property owner re. the tv problem then called me back saying there is no tv. There was Netflix, and you tube though. Unfortunately our internet stopped working. We called the property manager. He said he was coming by the next morning to fix it. We went out and came back in that evening to no internet. I called the property manager the following morning and he was surprised that it wasn’t working. He obviously didn’t check to see if that fixed it otherwise he would have known that it didn’t work. He said he “cleaned the SIM card” and that that usually works. He ended up calling the owners who had to contact theI ISP to fix the problem. The reason that even just Netflix was important to have is that we were always back at our apt.
around 8pm each evening with my 85 year old mother and we all really needed some relaxing entertainment since my mum to old to trail around all hours, and we couldn’t leave her alone.

Great location to much activity at marina. Close to old town, just a nice walk up the hill and along the ocean. Clean and well equipped. appreciated the laundry machine. Thank you for a beautiful place to enjoy. Wendy & Richard

The minute I saw the photo of the balcony, I knew I had to book this apartment, it did not disappoint. We were looking for a relaxation break to stop and do nothing. Sitting look at the boats was perfect. The apartment was perfect, the swimming pool was lovely. We never had a problem getting a sunbed. It's only 15 mins walk to Old Town which was crazy busy so to return to the not so crazy marina was lovely. There are pubs, restaurants and a bit of music in the Marina.
I would book again.

Had an absolutely fabulous holiday, staying at this gorgeous and spacious apartment located in Albufeira Marina.
The apartment was spotlessly clean on arrival and location wise just perfectly located with shops, bars, cafes and restaurants a few steps away.
Every possible amenity was catered for in the apartment which included a mid-stay change of bed linen and towels. This was very welcome as we had arrived during the middle of a heatwave with temperatures topping 43 degrees.
We had access to a pool which was definitely needed given the temperatures and many an hour was spent lazing by the pool soaking up the rays. The pool was clean as was the surrounding pool area. We did find that we had to bring down our sun loungers to be the pool on a couple of occasions due to the fact that certain individuals would “reserve” the loungers around the pool then disappear for the day.
The communication with Stuart the owner was first class from the minute we booked right through to when we checked out to head home. He answered every question we had in a timely manner and no request was a problem for him including our request for a late check out. A big thanks also to Kevin who met us at the apartment on arrival, very late at night I must add, to show us around the apartment and to give us a quick lowdown on the area in general.
With the old town a brisk walk away and boat trips and other leisure activities on our door step, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our holidays.
We would most certainly return to this apartment in the future.

Lovely views
The apartment is clean, spacious and comfortable. Having a balcony overlooking the marina was great and well used in the evenings after our walk back from town. Being able to walk to town was so convenient.
Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location
I was worried this area might be too loud or crowded and it wasn’t at all. It is active with all the restaurants but quiets down at night and the bedrooms are toward the back. The apartment is lovely and bright. We had a great time. I would rent here again for sure.

Very quiet relaxing time.
This apartment is pretty large, very well built with everything you need to live, just add food and drink. It has awesome views of Marina and some Ocean as well. There are tons of excursions to go on right from the Marina.. Walking to town along the coast was almost a daily event, Loved it.

Couldn't have been better
We have stayed at many VRBO's in other countries and around the United States, and this one is in my top 5! The location was perfect for me, the apartment was spotless and I loved the view from the balcony. The balcony was a perfect place to sit in the evenings for a glass of wine and to hear the music from the restaurants below. I would never stay anywhere else in this region.

We loved our stay in Albufeira. The apartment was beautiful, very well located. It has everything one needs for a perfect vacation. Stuart and Caroline answered all of our questions and were easy to get a hold of and the property manager was great.

We liked the apartment a lot, spacious, cozy, and no detail was missing, both in electrical appliances and in decoration. It also has good views of the port, and also a large pool that we used on several occasions. We have been very happy with the apartment and with Stuart, with whom communication was very good and there were no problems. If one day we return to Albufeira we will repeat.
