Apartment Rosemary

We had a fantastic stay here, the apartment was gorgeous and extremely spacious. We had an issue with our safe when we arrived late Sunday evening but first thing 9am Monday morning they were there arranging a new safe to be fitted within an hour- the quick response was amazing. There is nothing we could fault about our stay. The location was just perfect. We would 100% recommend it and will be sure to be back again ourselves.

We had viewed this property during our previous year's stay in the area - along with several others, so knew we would be happy with this well furnished, comfortable apartment. The helpful property management team are on-site, which is a plus. The area is attractive, quiet (there is some air traffic, but it didn't bother us) and very well maintained. The location is fantastic - close to golf and nature/beach walks. Our terrace was west facing, so that we had lovely sun from midday onwards on our terrace. The TV was of excellent quality and the WI-FI generally very good (one does have to repeatedly log on which is somewhat of a nuisance, but the speed is fine). One extremely important point for us was adequate heating! Spring in the Algarve is usually very pleasant, but it can be cool (especially in the evenings) and most properties are NOT well insulated. The furnishings were stylish, modern and of good quality: the wardrobes had LOTS of hangars and MANY drawers. The bath/showers had good water pressure and plenty of hot water. The kitchen was well equipped, with good appliances. My only (small) wish would be for a heavy duty, high quality frying pan - but I realize I am one of the few who cook regularly while on holiday. (Those in the kitchen were ok). We are hoping to return next year and would recommend this property highly. As to activities, there are many wonderful golf courses in the area. The beach walks are lovely. Visits to the Ria Formosa Nature areas are worthwhile and there are several small towns, such as Silves within easy driving distance. We even did day trips to the Alentejo area for wine tastings and sightseeing.

This is our third straight year staying at Sao Lourenco, the apartment we stayed in this year was Rosemary, it ticked all our boxes in everything we needed. Spacious and open living room and dining room(tv had all the channels anyone could ask for). All the kitchen appliances worked well. Bedrooms were a nice size and very comfortable beds. The whole team at Quinta Rentals are extremely helpful and welcoming.
