Luxury it is not!
This is a fairly modern apartment in a well kept complex with a lovely gardens and view to the Ria Formosa. But like many holiday properties it is becoming rather "tired". The bed linen and towels are old and need replacing and it seems that they are not laundered professionally but done in the washing machine in the apartment. That said the mattresses were OK.The dishwasher is old and the facia so worn that you cannot read the settings and it needed salt and rinse aid. The cooker oven also needed cleaning. The power tripped every time you turned the electric kettle on! Obviously the RCD for the 120v supply cannot handle sudden demand for over 2kWh! There were no toiletries or hand soap provided and we had to buy detergent for the dishwasher and washing machine. The weekly cleaning service was limited to having the bed linen changed and towels replaced. But the old towels were never taken away to be laundered! The floors were never washed and the rug in the lounge had not been hoovered for years!The WiFi was good 200Mbps but no Netflix or other streaming services, so bring your own Chromecast, Roku etc. It is a 42inch Samsung TV with x2 HDMI sockets.All told a bit underwhelming for the cost, but Fuseta is a good place to base yourself in.
