Perfect accommodation!

Firstly, to justify why i did not give 5*.
Only a couple of minor negatives stopping us giving 5* - The hot water for showers was mostly unpredictable and kept running cold after only a minute or two. Also, although on the whole the apartment was clean, there was a lot of dust, and the bathroom smelled funny - we just needed to do a light clean of the apartment before we settled in for the week.
Thats that out the way, apart from this we absolutely loved the place!!!
This apartment was ideally located for our needs. We have been to Albufeira once before with a car, and this time without one we saw a whole lot more!
I went with my twin brother and his girlfriend, and the space was just right for 3. The kitchen facilities were perfectly suited for self catering, including a washing machine - making the washing load when we got home a whole load easier!! - we even found the washing-line string and pegs! The only downside to the kitchen is the lack of oven, however the hobs and microwave allowed us to do a range of cooking.
The garden was a lovely additional space, with easy access to the pool area, which again was just lovely! the pool was the clearest i'v ever been in! And for the whole week the complex was quiet and private.
It's literally 2minutes away from the supermarket, local shops and bus stops, as well as being 2minutes from the strip with all the bars and restaurants.
A trip to the beach is worth the 10 minute walk, and the road train is an easy trip to the beautiful old town (or walk the beach road, which we did, takes about 30-45minutes, well worth it!)
Cheryl gave us a very swift, informative and friendly service, thanks Cheryl! Will definitely be returning to this apartment in the future!
