Pros: View and cleaning. Cons: TV

The apartment is exactly as pictured. We were very happy with our stay and would be happy to return. Beach view is fantastic and the area was perfect for our family (2 kids) getaway. Be sure to take a tour of the caves with one of the companies which leave right from the beach. Having a parking garage meant we could comfortably have a rental car to get around and visit all the other beaches around algarve. The parking garage is tricky to enter - you have to drive on what looks like a pedestrian-only path, and then you have to have one person get out of the car to open the garage door with the key. Also, the front door of the building is very tricky to open with the key. It took me several tries before I could jiggle it just right. The pool is not onsight as it appears in the photos, it is a pool behind the rental office (several blocks away) which the rental company will give you an access card to use the pool. We had the cards but never had the time to use the pool. I would stay here again as the apt really has everything you need, nice hot shower, cold AC, ample sized and well-stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, etc.
