Perfect for our needs

We’re so glad to found this lovely, spacious apartment - bright, spotlessly clean and perfectly located - and particularly enjoyed the outside space. Really conveniently placed for a great selection of lovely restaurants and cafes with super friendly staff, and handy for supermarkets too - the only thing we can fault is that we didn’t stay long enough! And thank you so much, Anne, for giving us such a warm welcome - we really appreciate all your help, especially with the baby. Our first time in Olhos d’Agua, but definitely not our last!

Amazing location

Got to say this was one of the best holiday's we have had, we have stayed in the area a couple of times but this was by far the best accommodation we have stayed in and the location was amazing being so close to the beach. Luckely rhe drainage is being sorted soon as due to high amounts of rain while we were there the drain in the back blocked and it was flooded for 2 days meaning we couldnt use it but other than that was a perfect stay. On a personal level could have done with the beds being slightly softer but that is just our preference.

Fabulous

Great apartment in a perfect central location with lovely outdoor space and great views. We were two friends so the separate bedrooms on different floors with our own bathroom each was perfect. Everything was provided and the apartment was clean and very comfortable. We ate out all the time but would be fine if you wanted to self cater. A couple of minor negatives - the stairs are fairly steep and the shower room to the upstairs bedroom was very compact (with little storage space) so maybe not suitable for anyone with mobility issues, same would apply to the swimming pool - lots of steps up to it. The swimming pool area was a bit disappointing (albeit with nice views) there were limited beds / shades and the grass area was wet and muddy. The other minor issue were the lights in the hallway to/from the apartment that were on sensors but failed to come on straight away so you were walking in the dark! Overall a great stay and would happily stay again.

we had an amazing stay, and it started with Ann meeting us as we stepped out of the taxi. She took the time to show us the condo, and how things works...which was a nice change from other arrivals. The condo is newer, and in great condition. Location is amazing, with beach close by. Many restaurant options all walking distance of the condo. We hope to return at some point in the future.

Fabulous central apartment near the beach

The perfect apartment in the perfect location for our family holiday. We are return visitors to Olhos D’Agua and will definitely try to repeat book the apartment. The location has lots of options for food and drinks, and the apartment is close enough to the beach that you can go back for lunch before heading back to the beach. In the evenings sitting out having a glass of wine or a beer on the large balcony looking over the bars and restaurants below is idyllic, and although there is a hustle and bustle below when you close the sliding patio doors the noise is unnoticeable. The apartment is well appointed, lovely decorated, clean and no fuss. Anne was fantastic with great communication with us from the moment we booked right through till we left. Thank you Anne!

Great Unit and Location

We really enjoyed this place and location; we will try to get back. Just a hint to those coming in by plane or Americans that I think have different expectations. There are no pool towels, we had to buy pool towels, they give us one bath and hand towel each (based on persons on reservation), not all beds were made up so I had to make up one of the beds we decided to use, which was the one I think they thought we would not use. There is no bar or dish soap. Tiny bit of washing powder and some dishwasher tabs, no roll of paper towels. So pack it in or buy it when you get there, all this was not a deal breaker, but it is different than American VRBO expectations. Again, we did really love the unit, location, parking, beach and vibe of the area.

Perfect for retirement!

The place is exactly as described. Photos are true. Loved the balcony with the partial view of the ocean. Very lively at night though but it all calms down at midnight, and once you put the window screens down you hardly hear from the bedrooms. No basics are included like salt, pepper, hand soap etc. so you have to buy everything. We found it quite unusual and hard as we were only staying for 5 nights so did not appreciate it. If you go by car get a small one as the parking is extremely small and hard to get into. We would definitely go back though as we loved it!

Our family really loved our stay in Olhos de Agua. The location is perfect, especially for families with young children - just a minute walk to the nice small beach. The property was very clean, air con was working smoothly in all rooms, the kitchen was well equipped with all the dishes, glasses and cutlery you could need. There were no salt, pepper, sugar or coffee, but the wine was great! ;-) (Thanks, Anne!). The internet speed was good if you are close to the router. The modern furniture and decorations in the property make a very nice and cozy ambience. We also loved the amazing sea view from the terrace. Our host, Anne, is super friendly and helpful!

Wonderful location

The views of the ocean and the activity in the restaurants below is fantastic from the large balcony. The late afternoon and evening shade makes the space very usable for outdoor dining, and there is a retractable awning for the morning. There are a number of fairly short trails that hug the cliffs and the beach that make for fantastic morning walks with stunning views. The internet speed isn’t great if you need to work remote (especially in the evening when it seems like everyone is starting to stream), but this is also typical of internet along the Algarve coast. Overall, it was a lovely stay for our family.

Quiet village

The apartment is over two floors and is probably as good as it gets in terms of accommodation in the older seaside village of Olhos D'agua. Found it a little dreary as there is just concrete everywhere. Pool is fine but 67 steps up to the back so a little painful if kids want to nip in and out for snacks etc.. Pool area is a little basic.. Plastic loungers etc. Not particularly comfortable. Apartment is also fine but I can't say it was fabulous. Depends on visitors preferences of course. No welcome pack (basics /btl wine/few dishwasher tabs /wash up liquid etc) which was a first for us over the years of renting. Overall it was all just fine.

Right at the beach yet maybe too simple

Location perfect, 1min from beach. Rooms big enough and face the quite part, no night noise. Living / Dining area good. Excellent balcony. Grill shown on the ad can not be used, misleading. Pool access only after tons of stairs, not easy with young kids and old parents. Pool fully on the shade during the mid and late afternoon. Ants on the kitchen. Sofa super beaten up and used. Pillows very stiff for my liking.

Perfect apartment for our family holiday to Olhas D’Agua. The apartment itself was spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything we needed. It is in a brilliant location with very close access to the beach and some great family friendly restaurants. We also really enjoyed the pool area, which we often had to ourselves at times. Bernadette and Vincent were great hosts - we were promptly met on arrival and departure and Bernadette was very good at responding quickly to any questions we had before we arrived. We would highly recommend this apartment and will definitely hope to return again in the future!

Glorious week in first time visit to Olhos De Agua

Our flight was severly delayed from Bristol, meaning our already late check in was set back to 3am. Bernadette was so kind in being in touch throughout and was not annoyed in any way. The accomodation was perfect for us, a group of 7. The pool area was clean and the pool has magnificant views of the beach. We found out there are toilets and showers near the pool too which was handy after check out. The local restaurants are lovely although we were disappointed with Manzo steak house. The ice creams in the Acqua below the appartment were very popular. Bernadette was also kind enough to hold our lugguage until around 3pm on our departure day, meaning we could relax by the pool a little longer before our journey home. Would highly recommend this accomodation to anyone seeking a quiet, civilized family getaway.
