Diogo was a wonderful host, he even picked us up at the train station which was totally unexpected. The apartment is very central to everything. Many restaurants in the Marina area. The closest beach was a ten minute walk. And only a 25 minute stroll to the Quarteira boardwalk and beach.

Location and space was great. Furniture a little tired although functional - larger bathroom towels would have been nice. Check-in instructions were not up to date and this is a problem after you have been travelling for 24 hours. We had an issue with the electricity and fire alarm which might have been avoided with better maintenance checks?

The home was amazing. I stayed with a friend, both of us women in our 60s. We enjoyed its location which was walking distance to the marina (for meals and boat tours) and the beach. The home was very clean and spacious. The host was very responsive to any questions. He left a “welcome package” of wine, coffee and crisps. We were able to leave our suitcases after the checkout time so we could go for a meal before traveling. I hope to return with my husband in the near future.

Great place to stay

My friends and I had a really enjoyable stay at Marina Gardens duplex. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and 2 seating areas, back and front both sun traps. It was nice to go upstairs to 2 spacious bedrooms. The location was excellent as just a few mins walk to the Marina and all that has to offer , there was a pool available for us to use at another complex which again was a 2 min walk away.The owners were incredibly kind when we contacted them with questions and actually popped in to see us to show us how a couple of things worked. I would fully recommend a stay at this apartment/duplex as its far enough away so you dont hear all the music and noise from the Marina. There is a spar just over the road and a lovely little cafe/pizzeria/bakery just at the end of the road and we made use of this daily.

A great location to explore the Algarve. Lots of restaurants, bars and hiking trails within walking distance. Also, the bonus of a grocery store a 2 minute walk away. We prepared alot of our own meals and enjoyed walking to the fresh fish market in Quarteira meals

Vilamoura stay

We were given the wrong address and codes. after a local helped us and putting a call to the host we luckily were in the right area, as Uber was gone, and the host talked us through the apartment address and entry process. The unit was in an excellent location. Loved the proximity to ocean and restaurants. We did however have to clean our outdoor patio as we wanted to us it. Chair mats were wet so needed to get those aired and dry. Very bare bones on any supplies. We were there for 11 days and would have expected to have a towel and bedding exchange

Outstanding place and well located !

Situated close to everything you need, walking distance. The accommodations are superb and reflect the host's character and helpfulness. A supermarket 2 minutes away, cafe 1 minute walk, restaurants and bars 5 minutes away. Beach is also close by at 10 minutes walking. The duplex is well equipped, very clean and very comfortable. We can't say enough about how great this stay was and we will definitely be coming back and for longer. Thank you Diogo and Natasha for your outstanding caring and helpfulness.

Vilamoura 2024. Brilliant host.

Stayed with 3 friends for 4 nights. Great communication from host before and during our stay. Pool is a short walk and a great size, good set up. Location for marina is as close as you're going to get without actually being on the naeina iteself, 3 minute walk away. Would highly recommend for independent travellers, looking for a solid base to explore Vilamoura and Quarteira.

Nice Apartment, Great location

This is a nice apartment in a great location. It's proximity to the Marina, beach and bars & restaurants is difficult to beat. However the photos possibly oversell the apartment as it is looking tired and would benefit from some modernisation and TLC, which would undoubtedly take this to the next level. The only slight negative to the location is that being so close to bars etc, it can get very noisy particularly on a weekend with a very lively bar at the rear of of the apartment block. That said the apartment was spotlessly clean and check in and communication with the owner Diogo were first class, and nothing was too much trouble.

Great property in a great location.

We really enjoyed our vacation at this property in Vilamoura. It was very clean and the location was perfect. It was just a short walk to the lovely marina where there are several restaurants to choose from. We couldn’t have had a better host, Diogo was so helpful and friendly and went out of his way to ensure that we had everything we needed.
