Wonderful

We were delighted with the property and location. The only downside we found was motorbikes racing up and down the road outside apartment blocks all during the night reving their engines enough to waken you.

Everything was great, the friendly staff, the huge well equipped apartment and the location
This is our second stay at the real Marina residence, firstly as three friends with three separate bedrooms and this time two friends two separate bedroom.
The apartments are completely stunning and spacious beyond words with a balcony they fabulously clean.
We’ve had an added bonus this time that the pool wasn't available on the roof of our apartment blockso we’ve had access to the real marina Hotel.
We can’t recommend it enough and will certainly be staying again. See you next May

Fantastic apartment really spacious spotless and had everything you needed for a stay. There are restaurants and bars within a short walk and faro old town is a short cab journey away.
Amazing stay, we have a flat instead of just a room like a hotel.
