The welcome package contained a bottle of water, crisps, wine and beer and some cleaning products to get you started. A bottle of milk in the fridge and some tea bags for the first night would have served us better. There were only two of us in a 6 person apartment but had there been 6, it would be tight on storage due to locked wardrobes but we understand that the owners need to keep their stuff separate. These are just minor points. The solarium upstairs is a good size with plenty of seating.as is the downstairs lounge and dining area although we tended to eat outside and use the solarium. WiFi is good downstairs but hit and miss upstairs. There’s a washing machine so you can wash the towels and bedding as it is not changed during your stay (we were there for 3 weeks). Albatros 3 community was quiet which is what we like. The pool is clean and not too cold but can get busy on a weekend when owners come to their properties. We’ll certainly be considering returning again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 19 nights in Sep 2024 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heike Jul 17, 2024 #### Sehr erholsamer Urlaub Die Ruhe und auch der Pool waren sehr angenehm. Das Haus ist schön. Die Terrassen sind groß und bequem möbliert. Es findet sich immer auch ein Schattenplatz, so dass man sich den ganzen Tag draußen aufhalten kann. Der Service von Resort Hosts war super, wie immer. Die Wohnanlage ist schön und gepflegt. Wir haben uns 3 Wochen sehr wohl gefühlt. ##### Heike ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Grand Hotel Miramare](https://www.expedia.ca/Santa-Margherita-Ligure-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Miramare.h25847.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Cascais](https://www.expedia.ca/Cascais-Hotels.d4896.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites Edmonton International Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites-Edmonton-International-Airport.h11743269.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Cork City Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Cork-City-Centre-Cork-Hotels.0-n6205877-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Villa Palmeras](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Villa-Palmeras.h19637549.Hotel-Information) > > [Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Flamingo-Las-Vegas-Hotel-Casino.h13945.Hotel-Information) > > [Windjammer Landing Resort and Residences](https://www.expedia.ca/Gros-Islet-Hotels-Windjammer-Landing-Resort-And-Residences.h14461.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Quebec](https://www.expedia.ca/Quebec-Hotels-Hilton-Quebec.h10930.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Motels.d4127-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Sandals Barbados - ALL INCLUSIVE Couples Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Maxwell-Hotels-Sandals-Barbados-ALL-INCLUSIVE-Couples-Only.h7062172.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels.d178245.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Flights > [flights from burlington intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/btv/flights-from-burlington-intl-airport) > > [Flair Airlines Vancouver (YVR) to Toronto (YYZ) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/flair-airlines-from-vancouver-intl-to-pearson-intl/f8/yvr/yyz) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Sidney (YYJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yyj/edmonton-to-victoria) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Delhi (DEL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/del/toronto-to-delhi) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Haikou (HAK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/hak/toronto-to-haikou) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Barcelona (BCN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/bcn/edmonton-to-barcelona) > > [Flights from Orlando (MCO) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mco/yvr/orlando-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to TYO-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tyo/toronto-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yyc/toronto-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yyz/vancouver-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Santa Cruz das Flores (FLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/flw/toronto-to-flores-island) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Warsaw (WAW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/waw/toronto-to-warsaw) ### Packages > [Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/178276/Las-Vegas) > > [Mexico](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/117/Mexico) > > [Milltown Mini Golf – Family Fun Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Milltown-Mini-Golf-Family-Fun-Park-Peterborough.d553248621532865193.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Beverly Hills Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Beverly-Hills.d6912.Destination-Travel-Guides) ### General > [Visit Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs.dx180676)
