1st Class apartment!
Review Submitted: August 19, 2009
Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a perfect stay, the apartment was spotless and very well appointed. The discription was 100% we loved the colour theme running throughout the apartment it reminded is very much of being in Cornwall but with the lovely sun every day. Alot of thought had gone into the decour
There are so many restaurants and cuisines in the area to choose from,(the strip is only 5 mins away) and when you come back to the apartment it is lovely to sit out on the living room balcony and watch the boats and world go by. It can sometimes be a little noisy(which we expected) with people coming back from the strip but an extra glass of wine and you don't notice! They also have electric shutters which help. The service we had from the owner/sister were excellent, they were very helpful.
The nearby beach is beautiful it gets very busy in the
height of season. Take the parasol that is in the apartment you will need it.
The only downside which we knew in advance was there was no pool but within a day or two we had sussed out that the Hotel Foute da Oura Hotel about 50 yards to the left we could use there pool providing you used their services. They are very freindly and drinks and food reasonable a family of four could get an all-day breakfast including one drink each for 20£ . The also have a happy hour 8-9 and night time meals again family of four 20£ but everyone has to eat the same meal. Good value.
We had a few days out to a water park and a sunset cruise which was well worth it to see the fab coastline. Do go into the Old town for 8£ return its a bit more expensive to eat but well worth it..
Transfers we paid about 65E return but in the travel agent shop below the apartment a sign said t-fers one way for 25e may be worth getting details from owner/sister.
I would recommend this apartment to any of my family or freinds.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your generous comments - its always nice to get the good news rather than just the bad. We have endeavoured to make our apartment something of a "home from home", and love using it ourselves. We are already getting a number of repeat visitors and look foreward to welcoming you back in the not too distance future. We will follow up on the transfer information - thank you for that. Marina & Manuela
