Fantastic apartment
Excellent apartment in a great location in beautiful Faro. We were very comfortable living in the apartment. Our hosts were there to meet us on arrival and were very helpful. The apartment was spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. It was equipped with everything that you could need to make your stay comfortable. I would recommend this apartment for a stay in Faro . We would love to return for a holiday.

Surpasses all expectations
Large, clean, well stocked apartment - every little eventuality was thought about. Landlord Antonio and Isabel were totally gracious and responsive. Location is fantastic, a few steps to local supermarkets, restaurants and a 10 minute stroll to the old city. 10th floor balcony was a total pleasure to sit on and enjoy the view across the ocean. Will most definitely return if in Faro. Our present stay was 6 weeks - HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Bob & Lisa Hutchison, Stratford, Ontario, Canada

Excellent in every Way
Great directions given to get to location. Antoinio and Isabel met us in the condo. Antoinio actually helped with our bags. They were great and explained every appliance and showed us throughout the spacious condo. Everything that we expected and more. Great appliances, lots of space. Loved sitting on the balcony with our morning coffee then going to the kitchen to make breakfast. Market was only a couple of short blocks away. Every day my wife and I walking to Old Faro or the harbour. So many great places for lunch and dinner or just a cold beer. Bought roadside oranges in a bag and made our own orange juice every morning. Local strawberries were amazing. So much to do and see every day. Sad that we are leaving. Thank you Antonio and Isabel for this perfect rental. You truly are great hosts.

Great month-long stay Feb/Mar 2023.
Great apartment. It is spacious and has everything you could need. Antonio and Isabel provided lots of great information in person and in the home-made guidebook. The apartment was comfortable and quiet - great for sleeping. Well-appointed kitchen - all the pots/pans and utensils you'd have at home, including plastic containers for leftovers. There were restaurants, bars and groceries close by, a short walk to the old town and the marina area, places for long hikes and convenient to the train, bus and ferry for jaunts to beaches and other towns. We found the apartment to be cold even with the limited available heat (an electric metal heating plate with no fan to push heat into the room). We bought a small space heater and that worked well. This would not be an issue in the warmer months. Antonio responded to all questions quickly. We enjoyed our time in the apartment and on the sunny balcony (great for drying clothes, too). I found that balcony chairs to be particularly comfortable.

Fantastic apartment with everything close by!
Isabel and Antonio have thought of everything to make one’s stay enjoyable. Very tastefully decorated with a well equipped kitchen. Lovely bathroom with great water pressure and lots of hot water. A comfy bed and lots of storage. The grocery store and mercado are around the corner. And last, but not least, the sunny balcony with a great view of the water and sunsets. We didn’t want for anything! Thank you to you both!

Our stay was perfect....almost!
First, the apartment and everything in it is in excellent condition, tastefully furnished, in a pretty neighborhood, and convenient to walk to supermarkets, restaurants, and the City Center. We always felt safe, both day and night. The place is impeccably clean, the bed comfortable, plenty of hot water, and the kitchen is fully-equipped to cook large meals and even entertain guests. The balcony is large with nice chairs and table and pleasant views of the town and water. The wi-fi is fast and reliable, too. (I can't speak for the TV performance since we never used them) Communication with Antonio was courteous and timely. When an oversight on my part revealed he never received the balance of our invoice, he was very understanding and I paid it immediately. Unfortunately, when Jenny the manager checked us in, she discovered that the door to the washing machine was broken, making it inoperable. Although she made efforts to get it repaired, it didn't happen while were there. Since our stay was for 10 days, a washing machine was a big factor in choosing this place, Luckily, we found a nice laudromat a few blocks away that cost about 15 euros per load. And we paid to wash the towels that were provided in the unit. I was disappointed that Antonio did not offer us any compensation for this inconvenience and extra expense. As we always do at our stays, we checked out on tme and left the apartment tidy. We took out all organic trash, emptied the 'fridge, turned off the lights, closed all windows, and left the keys as instructed. All in all, I would recommend this apartment for a comfortable stay in Faro.

Wonderful hosts
We would stay here over and over again with the understanding that there would be no construction happening. Our 3 star rating of the property is because there was construction during our entire stay resulting in water being shut off daily at the most inopportune times and quite a bit of concrete dust. The hosts were excellent and the apartment location was perfect!

Antonio's apartment cannot be more perfect with a breathtaking marina view as a bonus. The apartment is equipped with all you need and nicely decorated rooms make us feel very welcome. You can easily walk to the waterfront, supermarkets and the main train station and all the necessary information was provided personally upon check-in by Jenny as well as by an information file on the coffee table beautifully compiled by the host. We'll definitely choose Antonio's place again if we come back to Faro.

Very Enjoyable Faro city apartment
Very comfortable, functional and practical apartment in Faro City. Enjoyed the warm welcome by Antonio and Isabel both of whom were present when we arrived. Was very helpful to get a short introduction to the apartment and to all available services in the area. Took full advantage of the terrace - we really enjoyed the spectacular views of the ever changing Rio Formosa delta as the tide moved in and out. Located on the 10th floor - there was a lot of “natural airflow/ventilation” through the apartment and on the terrace all through the day which made it an excellent and comfortable place to spend time any time of the day even in the middle of the summer in Faro. Apartment had virtually all equipment one can possibly think of and also all furniture In the kitchen, the living room, the bathroom and on the terrace was very functional . Overall a perfect stay ! .... and an apartment we will keep at the top of our list when we next time spend time in the Algarve.

Great stay!
This apartment offered everything we needed for our last week of a one month stay in Portugal. We loved the balcony and had most of our "in house" meals at the patio table, then finishing off in the very relaxing lounge chairs. The living space is clean and very comfortable. We loved having the travel information for the Algarve to help plan our visits. Faro is a great central location. We visited a different beach every day for 7 days. The weather was amazing (late May). Thank you and hope to be back!

The 10th floor apartment within an easy walk to the Old Town shops, restaurants, and city waterfront is absolutely perfect for a couple. It's secure, spacious, well furnished, nicely decorated, and comfortable. The balcony views are beautiful. The washer and drying line were great to have and the WiFi speed was work compatible.

Sunny balcony overlooking the city of Faro and Ria Formosa
The very helpful owners met us for our four weeks stay at their lovely and well located appartment. The appartment is very comfortable and well equipped ,with all the the facilities needed for our long stay. With the sunny balcony overlooking the city of Faro and Ria Formosa, was just what needed of a winter break. Faro market and a number of supermarkets are within a few minutes walk and bus stop just down the road makes this a ideal location to explore Faro and wider the Algarve. We would highly recommend and hope to return.

Ultimate convenience and comfort in the quiet part of Faro. We could not have made a better choice.
This apartment had everything you will need during your stay. A great grocery is just around the corner with the Mercado being just a little further. The waterfront, bus and train station are within walking distance. Both the bus and train are easy to use to access all coastal and interior towns. There are many taxis by the station and will arrive quickly if you call them for pick up. There are many museums and cathedrals in the old town area along with many very good eateries. There are many small shops and outdoor markets. I cannot mention one fault of the apartment. Plenty of dishes and glass ware. Pots, pans, small appliances, washer, dishwasher, plenty of extra blankets and pillows. The balcony is a bonus with beautiful views of the Ria Formosa and the beautiful buildings surrounding the apartment. The apartment was totally renovated with a clean, modern look. The decor is simple and tasteful and comfortable. We so enjoyed making dinner and relaxing after a day of touring. This place is a hidden gem in a beautiful city in a beautiful country.

Great apartment
The owners are lovely people who show you where everything is. And there is everything, never have we seen such a well equipped apartment. Think of something and it is there. It's huge, the rooms are very spacious. The kitchen has everything you need, including laundry facilities. You are downtown, just a short walk to the waterfront and old town. But even in this neighbourhood are many restaurants, 2 grocery stores and the market!. Makes self catering very very easy. The balcony and views are the icing on the cake.
