Peaceful retreat with great pools

We had a lovely stay at Mar 1. The townhouse is very cozy and the terrace was our favorite spot for morning coffee and evening barbecues. The complex is very well-kept, and having access to both the adult and kids' pools was fantastic for our family. The views from the garden are beautiful and the whole area is very tranquil.

Great Spot For A Getaway

Our stay was smooth and comfortable from start to finish. The place was well-kept, and the terrace was perfect for enjoying meals outside. The location made it simple to reach nearby restaurants and beaches, and the optional boat tours were a fun bonus.

KEEP LOOKING..YOU CAN DO BETTER IN Albufeira!

When i arrived 15 min early. I sat at the door with my bags until they sent me the codes at 4 pm. Then i was informed that the host would ne coming to meet me for orientation but it felt like he was coming to make sure the black people dont steal. It feels very much like what i think a prison would feel like at times. If you stain the sheets, you will be charged, if you stain the white quilts the put over already stained and dilapidated furniture you will be charged. Albufiera is beautiful and there are a lot more beautiful, more accessible places to stay.

Townhouse with a view

The property was as described, well maintained and with a great view and good value. We had a great time. What I did not like was the check-in process. I travelled 6000 miles to come to the Algarve and be told that instructIons would be emailed to me just prior to the official check-in time, assuming that I even had local mobile data service. On top of that the address sent could not be found on Google Maps and I wound up driving up and down narrow and hilly roads until they deemed to send me the specific GPS locationThe accommodation was described as Townhouse Mar 1 and when I arrived at the complex there was nothing there described as such and a mystery to the available residents that I talked to. The information referred to a Lockbox at the door so I walked around and checked out all of the doors that had a lockbox and tried using the combo that was given so it was through the process, Townhouse labelled X. Would have been nice if they told me upfront.We have used VBRO/ Homeaway all of the world and never encountered this type of situation, subsequently we discover that our “ Owner” is Vacation Algarve who manages 300 properties in the region, not used to dealing with this type o group on VRBO

Kleinigkeiten

Ich war in der Winterzeit da. Zunächst sollte in der Winterzeit andere Bettdecken vorhanden sein und es sollte einmal ein Handwerker durch das Hazs gehen und einige Kleinigkeiten erledigen. Steckdose im Bad EG, Dichtungen von Backofen und Kühlschrank usw. Auch sollte das Fernsehenprogramm heutzutage auch deutsche Sender beinhalten.

Nice apartment with basic services

Nice apartment let down by poor fixtures and fittings. Small towels, poor quality pillows, no cleaning during the 2week stay until we chased the management company , then a sheet change. Bins not emptied (even those for used loo paper) had to buy toilet paper and bin bags. Ants in kitchen and living room. Miss matched crockery and glasses. We loved Portugal and the apartment is spacious, but this is not a luxury apartment as described.
