Perfect!

Our host Tony met us at our car with umbrellas due to the pouring rain. He took the time to heat up our apartment so that it was nice and warm for our arrival. The apartment was clean and comfortable with every amenity anyone could want. It was well very stocked. As well, the bed was very comfortable and quiet at night. I would highly recommend anyone to stay at Tony’s place. Thank you Tony for a such a pleasant stay!

Excellence in Albufeira

Anne & Tony were classified as "Premier Hosts". They were so kind, hospitable, and accommodating that we felt there should be another class of host above that! Where the other two stays that we had in Lisbon and Porto on this trip to Portugal, those units were run as a cut and dry impersonal service to generate an income. It was clear from the start that the Strouds are passionate about their service to generate goodwill. The entire stay was as pleasant as could be, and we very much appreciated their attentiveness and presence.their wonderful hosincome.

Awesome accommodation

Awesome accommodation! Walking distance from the beach. One of the best stocked units we’ve been to; beach towels, beach umbrellas, everything you need in the kitchen, TV with a bunch of channels (we watched some Tour se France). The hosts, Tony and Anne, were super friendly and very helpful. Gave us great tips on where to eat, and which beaches to visit. We’ll be back if we vacation in that area again!

Amazing views and location is perfect

I cannot say enough about the hosts, both Tony and Anne were excellent hosts. We had a chance to chat and get to know them a little bit. You are steps away from the most beautiful little beach down the road and you are also walking distance to a few more beaches. We walked to the Marina and visited the old town of Albufeira. Amazing week. The abode was lovely and well equipped. You will thoroughly enjoy your stay. Cheers Kyle and Nicole

Algarve adventure

We had an amazing stay at this property, and Tony and Anne were wonderful hosts. It was everything it was advertised as and more. Clean, spacious for the 2 couples, fully stocked, and incredibly located! Felt like we had our private beaches within a 2 minute walk, and the views from the cliff faces were incredible. Grocery shopping, centre of town, and walk to marina were all close. We will be back.

Just wonderful!

We have been to Albufeira several times, but Sao Raffael has become our favorite place... and so did this appartment. A view that we still dream of, an apartment just perfect for us, well equipped with everything we might need, perfectly cleaned. The owners Tony and Anne as well as Richard from the property management were so kind and caring. Already during our stay we decided to come again next year!

Wonderful !

Beautiful apartment in an approximately 30 or 40 years old complexe near 2 beaches and the cliffs. Apartment perfectly clean with lots of sun and a wonderful terrasse overlooking the sea. Very attentive hosts (thank you Ann and Tony !). Two tips for amelioration : wifi signal not strong enough (does not work on the terrasse) and the add does not mention that the pool is about 10 minutes walk. Otherwise, we could not ask for anything more !

Too short but sweet

We enjoyed a wonderful 5 days, my daughter and I, and wished it could have been longer. It is a beautiful apartment with lovely views and two balconies from which to look at the views. The photos don’t really do it justice. Anne and Tony were lovely hosts, friendly and helpful. The complex is peaceful and has a lovely pool which is a little distance away and which has a very good bar serving food and drinks. There are quite a few good restaurants in reasonable walking distance and we enjoyed some good meals. We didn’t have a car at our disposal so stayed very local. Didn’t venture out but just relaxed which what “was the doctor ordered”.😃 A really lovely break.

Magnificent holiday

We spent two amazing weeks in this wonderful apartment! It is very clean, really well equipped and the view from the large and sunny balcony is absolutely stunning! We particularly enjoyed the tranquility. Situated just outside Albufeira, it's the perfect place to relax, but has everything you need in short driving distance. You need a car though! We loved exploring the Algarve as this was our first trip to Portugal and this cozy home away from home is the perfect base for it. Anne and Tony are what made this holiday extra special though. Such kind, caring and warm hosts! They really are the best hosts you could wish for, always ready to assist when needed but never intrusive! We could always rely on Anne and Tony providing the best tips for great restaurants, lovely beaches or free parking spaces. We will always treasure this holiday and hope to come back soon!

About the host

Hosted by Anne & Tony Stroud

Host profile image
My wife and I first started coming to the Algarve more than 25 years ago and now that we have retired we spend most of the year in Sao Rafael.

Why they chose this property

This gem has undoubtedly the best location on this beautiful, quiet development with fine sea views. It is surrounded by colourful semi-tropical mature gardens and within easy walking distance of lovely beaches and coves. It is an excellent location for many Golf Courses, a modern Marina is just a few minutes drive but walkable and there are very good restaurants offering locally caught fish and other specialities within walking distance.
The terraces overlook the palm trees of the splendid gardens, wild heathland and the Algarve's renowned coast.
Fully equipped kitchen, free Wi-Fi, multi-national internet TV and air conditioning that keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter.
This is a beautiful place that will suit young or older couples; an ideal place for young or older children.
Highly recommended.

What makes this property unique

A beautiful first floor 2 bedroom penthouse apartment, just 150 metres from the beach and a beach bar/restaurant. Superb views of the sea and open heathland from the balcony, terrace, living room and bedrooms.
Anyone for 'sundowners' on our private south/south west facing terrace?
Both the shower room and en-suite bathroom are modern and latter includes a large walk-in shower.
Our apartment is very well equipped, including wi-fi, multi-national internet TV, beach towels, and childrens beach toys. It has the benefit of air conditioning to keep you cool in summer and warm in winter
It is not surprising that most of our guests return year after year.
