A two suits house, with an extra WC for the guests, it has two living rooms. Four persons can easily stay comfortably between our master suite, with a king size bed and a second suite with 2 beds (that can be put together). Recently we made several improvements, such has adding a second living room (or third room, pictures available) with a sofa bed and a wardrobe, the AC and blackout blinds providing 99% darkness, improved this second living room to a "room status". It is not a room since is between the main living room and the outside area, but it can fit 2 persons comfortably. We also completely renovate the main suite bathroom (with a wonderfull walking shower), both suites, hall and living/dining room. Also the garden is been renovated to a more comfortable artificial grass. Outstanding private area by the pool, with a perfect space for dinner outside, brick barbecue in the garden, with bushes that provide a unique sense surrounding the pool and the property area. During the summer months the outdoors (pool and garden) sun exposure it's just overwhelming. Parking space just by the house if needed. Several restaurants to a 5m walk, supermarket within 3km distance (the use of car is advised) and dozens of amazing beachs within a 15m by car. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Hot tub - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Wheelchair-accessible parking and van parking available ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 6 accessible parking spaces - No elevator (single-level property) - Wheelchair accessibility - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Wheelchair-accessible van parking - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: Just inside the house, in garden it's allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Limited housekeeping - Safe ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea - On a lake ### Things to do - Bicycles - Golf - Kayak - Optional golf privileges - Tennis - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - No smoke detector (host has indicated there is no smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Unit size: 1,615 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Check-out instructions The host requires you complete the following before checking out: Remove personal items and remove leftover food and drinks Turn off the lights and lock the doors Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host. ### Rules The consumption of alcohol must be moderate when using the pool to prevent any accidents. ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome Note from host: Added in 2020 safety net for the pool (by request) ### Events No events allowed Gatherings and large parties and not allow. ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted Just inside the house, in garden it's allowed ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Note from host: Gatherings and large parties and not allow.

Pero habría que mantenerlo mejor . Se ve muy usado y le falta un lavado de cara . Y cambiaría los muebles y utensilios de cocina y en los dormitorios mejoraría los armarios . También pintaría el piso . Pero recomiendo la casa para ir , ##### manuel h. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Nuno Rogeiro Comunicações, Lda. R.

Aug 18, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### a lovely apartment in a beautiful neighborhood The contact with Pedro was very pleasant from the very first moment, especially given the uncertainty caused by Covid-19\. The apartment is located in the beautiful Quinta do Lago. The environment is very well maintained; you have beautiful beaches nearby and you are in Faro or Vilamoura in no time. Quinta Shopping is 5 minutes away for a cup of coffee, something to eat, groceries and exclusive clothing. The neighborhood is quiet and in Quinta and Vale do Lobo you will find many good restaurants. The house is fully equipped and has air conditioning. And that in combination with the always perfect weather in the Algarve. Pedro thank you for your hospitality. ##### Roeland K. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2020 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Luis F.

The pool and outside area is very nice and we used it a lot. We had a problem with the television and it was immediately replace with a new one. Pedro was extremely accommodating with check out time which was really helpful for us. Some of the equipment and decor in the apartment is a little dated and perhaps due replacement but overall the apartment is well equipped and we had everything we needed! We would use the apartment again. ##### Susannah T. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Chris S. Jun 1, 2018 #### Good but needs upgraded in parts Overall good but certain areas need attention - the shower fittings are poor, rugs should be removed as old and feel unclean. Some areas need a better clean eg shutters and mosy nets. Thanks ##### Chris S. Stayed 3 nights in May 2018 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Georg B. Apr 23, 2018 #### keine komplette Villa und nicht ganz sauber Wir waren bei der Anreise etwas überrascht, da es sich nicht um das komplette Haus, sondern nur um ein Appartment im Erdgeschoss handelte. Leider hatten sich auch schon nach der ersten Nacht die Übermieter beschwert, weil die Klimaanlage sehr laut ist. Es sind nur 2 richtige Schlafzimmer und ein Doppelbett im Durchgangsraum zum Garten/Pool vorhanden (hier hat man also keine Ruhe). Zudem gab es nur für ein Bett eine richtige Bettdecke. Die anderen Betten waren mit einer Wolldecke abgedeckt, die unangenehm gerochen hat. Damit sind wir auch schon beim größten Problem. Es war nicht sauber. Überall in den Ecken lagen Haare und Schmutz. In einem Bett krabbelten sogar Ameinsen und Spinnen. Die Handtücher, Bettlagen und "Decken" waren nicht richtig gewaschen und hatten Flecken. Das Geschirr machte auch nicht den saubersten Eindruck und musste erst einmal aufgewaschen werden (Spültabs und andere Haushaltsmittel wie Waschmittel, Spüli, Lappen, Küchenrolle, ... waren ungenügend oder garnicht da und mussten nachgekauft werden). Immerhin hatten wir gutes Wetter. ##### Georg B.
