solid stay, slight drawback

portuguese styling short walk frequent use birthday cake

the apartments had traditional Portuguese styling. A Pingo dolce supermarket was a short walk. i frequently used the mini bus service. The staff provided AMAZING service, even surprising me with a birthday cake for my 60th birthday. i say a big thank you to Bella, Elsa, Sandra, Christina, and the superb restaurant staff.

the electricking supply frequently tripped if multiple devices were plugged in. also, i found the outdoor furniture oddly placed inside, so it was impossible to access it via the french doors.

the apartment was spacious and very clean. i found the air conditioning superb, it worked very well. the bar and restaurant offered decent food at a reasonable price.

the electricity supply tripped when i plugged in more than one device. outdoor furniture was inside the apartment, i could not move it outside through the doors. the room had a job and a microwave only , made self-catering challenging.

I appreciated the free minibus service to the marina. This service ran multiple times a day. The new swimming pool was a highlight and looked well kept. The staff seemed friendly, especially at the pool bar. It had a cute atmosphere.

The hotel seemed a bit far from the marina, requiring a long walk during the summer heat.
