Highly recommended!!
In spite of the very unseasonable weather in Albufeira (most rainfall in this period for over 40 years!?) we absolutely loved our little break here in Bayview 503. The apartment was perfectly located on the edge of the Old Town, a 5 minute walk from the beach and 15 mins from the Marina. Far enough away from the bar and club area to not be disturbed by late night revelry but close enough to join in if we were in the mood!! We were on quite a tight budget so the small but well equipped kitchen was ideal for making simple breakfasts and evening meals so we could splash out on a few restaurant treats! The weather was chilly so we didn’t spend a whole lot of time sitting on the balcony but the sea view was lovely. The bed was comfortable and there was enough room in the built in wardrobe to unpack all our clothes. The bathroom was big enough and the shower was great but it did get a bit steamy as there wasn’t any extractor fan and no window….We had some fabulous walks along the beaches in Albufeira and along the coast either side of the town. We took a day trip to Lagos (bus ride there and train back) to check out somewhere else we considered basing ourselves, and although we enjoyed it, we were happy to come back ‘home’ to out little apartment in Albufeira!! Helen was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had on local supermarkets, airport transfers etc etc etc and hopefully we will have the opportunity to make a return trip in the autumn.
