BayView Albufeira

The apartment we had was great - exceptionally clean and spacious. The owner could not have been more helpful, with very clear instructions and in a timely manner. He even accommodated our request for an early checkin. I got response to my queries very quickly too. Pool area is nice although sometimes couldn’t get a bed so maybe even harder in high season. Albufeira is hilly and you do have to tackle 98 steps to centre of old town and a steep hill so not great for anyone who is not very mobile - we are mobile so it was a very good location for us Would definitely stay there again

Great location but multiple issues. Bathroom constantly smelled of sewerage. Booking for 3 people but only 2 pillows left for beds. Multiple plugs in the room did not work. WiFi signal was not available in room or pool and as the premises is largely an un-manned reception they did not answer my query via the messaging service but yet were active on the service a few hours earlier asking about my arrival time. Apartment was poorly cleaned for our arrival and bins at pool and toilet area not emptied daily and overflowing. Pool water was not cleaned in the week we have been here. Balcony was a waste of time due to the air con unit blowing out hot air. If an apartment has an un-manned reception then it is very poor they cannot respond to messages.

Very clean and well equipped apartment. Owner very nice and could not have been more helpful. Within walking distance of the old town square. Only downside was very hilly town. Could not fault the apartment though really enjoyed our stay in it
