Condominium Do Golf II

Sacked Bristol
Review Submitted: October 19, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
Myself, partner, sister in law and her partner have just returned from Vilamoura after staying at this great and very reasonably priced apartment which is very tastefully decorated, modern and clean.

It is a 2 bed apartment with an en suite to the double master bedroom and benefits of all usual requirements making this accommodation a superb choice of holiday let - a perfect home from home.

It also has the benefit of black out blinds and air conditioning which was essential in the 30-34 degree heat that we experienced during the week that we stayed in Vilamoura. And the power showers in the bathrooms were amazing!

The pool was excellent as was the pool area. Plenty of room for everyone and whilst a little cooler this time of year, spent hours in it throughout the week.

The apartment is only a 5 min brisk walk across the main road outside the complex, There are a couple of bars with good prices for local spirits and beer which is contrary to the reviews i found of Vilamoura. There is also a gift shop with extremely helpful proprietors which have a good deal of local knowledge. There are also a couple of restaurants which should be proud of the food they prepare at prices that they charge (try the English breakfast (No 1)).

Further down the road approx 15 mins is a much larger Supermaket (Jaffers) which boasts a deli and butchery counter with a good choice of meats and cheeses. Prices are much cheaper here if you like to drink/eat in taking full advantage of the apartment and its private garden when eating outside at the comlpex.

A little further from the Jaffers supermarket you have the Marina which, in most establishments drinks can fetch 5 Euro for a large beer, however if you venture up the side streets, a drastically cheaper ranging from 1.5 - 2.5 Euro.

I highly recommend this apartment and location and already planning to make a return trip.

Also very happy with the correspondence and information pack received from the 'landlord' - Jill.

Many thanks for a great holiday Jill! We looking forward to doing business with you again in the not too distant future!

A Home Away from Home

Lee & Julie Horshm, England
Review Submitted: September 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2005
First class accomodation. Spacious, nice specification, comfortable and ideal for my family of 4. It really did feel like a home away from home.

Being on the ground level was an added bonus as the garden allowed you quick access to the pool area (where the kids spent all their time) and it provided a nice setting for those early & late evening dinners.

Everyone around the complex was really friendly and there was plenty of other children for my children to make freinds with. Pool never got too growded and in the last few days of our break we were among a dozen people there.

Located in a very convenient location with easy access to shops, the beach. the marina. There is even a very nice fitness trail nearby that I am proud to say I used 10 times during my break. Weather was great. Clear blue skies and 34 degress almost every day.

We can highly recommend this property and hope to holiday there again soon.

Fantastic apartment and pool - superb holiday.

Review Submitted: June 10, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My wife and I choose this apartment due to the good reviews, beautiful setting and style of the apartment. We weren't dissapointed when we got there either.

It was clean, well presented and the electric black out blinds are a god send if you or any children require a snooze mid afternoon.

The pool is brilliant, and is only a stones throw from the private garden, so is great if you had enough of the sun but the kids are still going strong.

I would highly recommend this apartment and will definately be back in the future, hopefully sooner rather than later.

We had a good holiday in Vilamoura, the apartment was lovely, modern and spacious. It was great to have your own private patio and garden area. Pool set in beautiful surroundings and children's play park was great for our daughter. We hope to return soon!!!

Great Apartment - But the pool was empty

AdrIRL Ireland
Review Submitted: May 26, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
This really is a lovely apartment. It's a 20 minute brisk walk to the Marina but the footpaths are great is you have kids. We loved the apartment and the "Own Garden" is absolutely brilliant.

Only bad thing was the pool was empty for almost all of our 2 week stay... there was a leak in a filter or something. 2 weeks wihout the pool was tough with 2 kids.
Owner's Response: The apartment's commual pool unfortunately developed a leak which required the water to be removed over a 3 week period in order to find it and then fix it. The pool has now been been fully fixed and re-filled. Whilst the pool was out of action we also took the opportunity to refurbish the pool area and lay new decking. Renters can now continue to enjoy the fabulous pool and the surrounding gardens.

We will return!

Review Submitted: December 30, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
We had a fantastic holiday here in August. The apartment was tastefully decorated. It had all the facilities needed especially the well equipped kitchen and 2 bathrooms. It was spotlessly clean and well maintained. The complex was quiet and peaceful but only a short walk from the bustling harbour. There were lots of good restaurants to choose from and a helpful visitors' book in the apartment which gave us lots of ideas about different places to visit. We would really recommend this apartment as it was very comfortable and offered the opportunity to choose between complete relaxation, beautiful beaches, sight seeing and lively nightlife. We will definitely be booking again in the near future!!

Beautiful apartment - excellent location

Review Submitted: December 13, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We stayed in this apartment in July and had a wonderful time.

The complex is safe, secure and very tranquil. The beach is a short walk away - beautiful to stroll along at sunset and then eat at one of the many bars and restaurants available at Vilamoura harbour.

The apartment is excellently situated - ground floor with a very private garden and yet only a few yards from the pool area so it's easy to keep an eye on the kids whilst relaxing with a good book and glass of wine!

All the mod-cons inside the apartment make life really easy (especially the dishwasher!) so self-catering isn't a chore and there was a fully stocked supermarket over the road with everything we needed. The two luxurious bathrooms are a godsend, plenty of room for everyone!

We had a brilliant holiday with the typical fantastic Algarve weather and will definitely be booking here again!
