Apartment was spacious with air conditioning. It was quite with few children. Pool was medium sized with lots of lounge space.
Could have benefited from a welcome pack telling us what was in the area to visit and places of interest.
Staff were very pleasant and helpful. WiFi was oh available at the reception and golf club o. In the apartment.
You needed a car as it was a little out of the way and no public transport details were on offer. You needed the car to get to restaurants and shop.
There were some very good restaurants in the surrounding villages that were tucked away in quaint places.
Some windows and doors are difficult to open and close , but overall a very nice place for golfers and those who would like to take day trips to beaches
We stayed in August 2015 and was initially booked into the Quinta Velha but as there was a discrepancy in what was listed on the website and I travelled with two small children and had no transfer they kindly moved me to the Floresta (even though it was fully booked) and I had a fantastic stay the house we stayed in was very very spacious and had everything you could want in it all the life comforts you needed. The only thing I would say is you definitely need a car and a phone as nothing is nearby and there is no phone in the house.

Very disorganized place
The house itself was nice, but the whole leisure village is highly disorganized. Nobody knows anything, finding the house is almost impossible, and the food in the Spike Restaurant is definitely bellow average.
Relaxing and pleasant. Fantastic surroundings and easy access to the area.

Correu bem
Boa casa, com bons jardins envolventes. Lamentável o estado de abandono de duas das piscinas com cadeiras e pneus dentro das mesmas e água podre que atraia bastantes mosquitos. De resto tudo impecável com pessoal muito simpático.
Se nota perfectamente que la persona que gestiona el Hotel es alguien sin gusto, sin olfato, y un poco "cateta". Quiza sea consecuencia de la crisis o sencillamente que alguien sin calidad empresarial ha decidio gestionar un negocio hotelero. Varias cosas de las que debía haber en la villa, faltaban, y ante nuestra queja, se nos informó de que habrían sido robadas por otros clientes, sin dar mas explicaciones. Yo NO VOLVERE, no salvo que el precio fuese estremadamente barato. Relación calidad-precio, BAJA.
We actually ended up staying for the whole week in the villa. Everything else was sweet but the air conditioning was not able to warm the place up so we did order some firewood. The wood we got was so wet that it took a lot of effort to get it burning and because the fireplace was designed more for looks it didn't really give out a lot of heat. Even so we enjoyed our stay. It was really quiet in January and the golf course was in brilliant condition.
