Salinas, sea view, Olhao
Lovely spacious, clean and modern apartment, great location for a stroll into Olhao, along the sea front. Well equipped and the pool on the roof, clean and easy to use with fantastic views. Although we knew there was a road in front, it was a little busier than we thought, and would probably choose, but didn't really detract from the spectacular sunset over the salt flats! Would have been nice to have some sort of welcoming bottle of water, even local wine on our arrival, we had been waiting in Olhao all day until 4pm, and as it happened so had the lady who was letting us in, so if communication had been slightly better organised, it would have been nice to be in a bit earlier to suit everyone. Really enjoyed our stay in this excellent flat, the wheelie Rolsover trolley was so useful thanks! Weather was fantastic while we were there. Thanks for a great stay.

Great position overlooking Olhao Waterfront
The apartment has one of the best views in the Marina complex. The apartment is well fitted out and has the little things you need on arrival like tea coffee etc. Beds are very comfortable. Great place for a break in the sun.

Fantastic apartment and view
We stayed for a week in June. The apartment has a lovely view across the Ria Formosa. The balcony is spacious and comfortable to sit out on to enjoy the view. There is some road noise when on the balcony. The apartment is clean, well furnished and has absolutely everything to make a self catering holiday easy. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it.

Excellent host, apartment and town
All contact with the host and the charming lady who let us into the apartment was first class. Accommodation was spotless and has everything for a great stay. View out over the Ria Formosa was stunning, and you get to wake up with Flamingos opposite. Even when this old fossil managed to lock us out everything was sorted incredibly (big thank-you !!). Olhao centre is a few hundred yards up the the new promenade with lots of eateries, ferries to the islands and shops. Saturday fish and fruit market is a must to do.

Die Wohnung ist ein Traum! Die Lage und Ausstattung sind perfekt. Leider trägt die Strasse und der dadurch entstehende Lärm nicht zur Erholung bei. Ein Tempolimmit 30 wäre mehr als angebracht.

Lovely location and great apartment
The apartment and its location is lovely. Every thing you need is within walking distance and we have eaten at really nice restaurants, bought fresh fish and veg at the lovely market. Worth a visit We have walked around the salt farms and seen flamingos . We have felt the lovely sun and also the lovely rain! That is not the fault of the apartment. Just the roll of the dice with weather. Asked by fellow brits staying for 3 months, who shared some good tips on restaurants. They asked would we come back. Yes. I am planning for a long weekend stay in October! Cold in the UK, but 20+ degrees here. Thank you

Komfortables Apartment mit schönem Ausblick
Das Apartment ist sehr gut ausgestattet und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Es liegt in der 3. Etage. Auch wenn die Haupteingangsstraße nach Olhao vor den Parkplätzen des Apartment vorbei führt, hört man in der Wohnung nichts davon. Der Blick vom Balkon auf die dahinterliegenen Salinenfelder und der tolle Sonnenuntergang abends sind wunderbar. Das Apartment ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt um Olhao zu Fuß zu erkunden. Wir haben uns wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wieder buchen.
