Lovely apartment.

We have stayed at this apartment on numerous occasion. The location is great. The apartment has everything you need and more! The terrace gets the sunshine from early morning until late afternoon. The owners are extremely helpful and go out of their way to ensure you have great holiday experience. Lots of nice restaurants, 2 good supermarkets and a beautiful beach all within walking distance.

A Perfect Apartment for Us

We had a fantastic time in Hans' apartment. We have stayed in many different ones over the years in Estrela da Luz and this was by far our favourite. Everything you needed and more, plus a great layout, the pictures do not do it justice. Thank you Hans, we will book again for next year!

Fantastic apartment with a great terrace

We loved our stay at this quiet complex which was well managed and very clean. The apartment itself was fantastic with everything a family of 4 could need and more. The spacious terraces were ideal for a leisurely breakfast in the morning sun but there were also always some areas in the shade if required. We loved that there was a separate children's pool so the adult pool was so peaceful. The gym was well equipped and the indoor pool was perfect for the one cloudy day we had. Easy to walk to the beach and local restaurants which were reasonably priced. We also visited Meia Praia beach which was practically deserted for a 10 euro Uber ride, well worth a visit but the beach at Luz was great too, not overcrowded at all in June. Hans, the property manager was very helpful and provided us with some useful information about the surrounding area. Thank you Hans! Great apartment which we will definitely return to.

Amazing stay in Luz

I booked this holiday mostly based on the previous reviews, and I was not disappointed. As others have said the photos don’t do it justice. It is more modern than the photos suggest. It is so well equipped and very spacious. The kitchen was great and there were loads of bits of food/condiments others had left which was appreciated. The showers were hot, and the AC was great throughout although we didn’t really need it even though it was very hot. With the electric shutters down it kept the apartment really cool. . The complex is beautiful and the pool was good, although we preferred the beach. It is a handy location for the beach, there is a supermarket within 5 mins walking, and the village has many great restaurants. We did not have a single bad meal whilst in Luz! Hans was a great host, very responsive and very helpful. Overall, I would highly recommend!

Lovely relaxing holiday.

Great apartment in a good position only a short walk into the Luz village where there are a couple of supermarkets, bars and restaurants. The apartment itself was very clean and generally in good order. The verander area is very roomy and has the sun until around 4 pm. The Estrela Estate is well cared for and there are attractive gardens. Local people had provided negative feedback on the service at Chiccos the on site restaurant but we visited on our last night and the food and service were both excellent. Really enjoyed our relaxed holiday in one of our favorite villages.

Wonderful stay

We had a lovely holiday and felt so comfortable and relaxed from the moment we arrived. Han’s the owner provided us with very good information before our holiday began, which helped us feel confident that we had made the right booking. On arrival the check in process was very quick and easy. The apartment was very clean and spacious with a large balcony area so you could sit out and relax. If you choose to hire a car, which I would recommend if you wish to explore further afield, but is not essential if you just want to stay local, the apartment comes with it’s own secure car parking space in an underground garage. The swimming pools (children and adults) are lovely and you do not feel overcrowded. There was no trouble in acquiring a sunbed as there were plenty to go around, although some families did reserve their beds by putting out their towels. The restaurants on-site are very good and provide a good selection of food. The gym is also easy to access and is very good as both my daughter and niece would testify. The evening bar and restaurant is excellent, with the menu offering a good selection . The staff are very friendly and they do all they can to make your meal that extra bit special. For football fans they will show your favorite team if they are on the television. There is also an area for the children to play pool . The complex is very secure, has beautifully presented gardens and is only a 5 -10 minute walk away from the sea. The beach is sandy, but has a rock area if you wish to avoid the sand and sunbathe. Both provide good access to the sea. There are 2 supermarkets within a short walk and the resort has plenty of restaurants to choose from. The whole family had a wonderful holiday and we would have no hesitation in rebooking with Hans. Thank you Hans for allowing us to use your holiday home and I hope to rebook with you again in the future. Best wishes David and family.
