We really enjoyed our stay at Catherine and David's apartment. Beds were very comfortable, and the whole place very cozy and updated. The manicured grounds are amazing. We did not realize when we booked that we had access to 4 different pools which were all well looked after. The apartment is very well located to all amenities. We did not rent a car but all tours had pick-up basically on site. There is a lovely marked walk-way to walk to Old Town and to a bigger grocery store on the way. The hosts were easy to contact and replied straight away. This is a gem. Thank you again Catherine and David. Hoping to be able to visit the Algarve again.

Spacious apartment in a nice club.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. The unit provided most of everything we needed for our stay. While we also enjoyed the evening fun of Old Town Albufeira, it was nice to relax around one of the many pools at a Club Albufeira. We also found it quite handy to have a few restaurants on the property for our first and last nights.
