The property was excellent, comfortable and very well equipped. The only thing wrong was no washing machine, however within 50m of the apartment there was a self service laundrette.

Great stay at lovely central apartments
Great apartments in a central location. Very spacious 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of storage. There were 2 large bathrooms also one off the hallway and one ensuite off the master bedroom. Off the lounge area there was access to the balcony with a table with seating for 6 there was also a table inside with seating for 6 for when it was too hot to sit outside. Both bedrooms and the lounge had air-conditioning which worked really well. There were also shutters on all the windows which kept the light out in the morning and allowed us to sleep in. If anything the kitchen was a little under equipped it could of done with a few more utensils and there were only 3 wine and 3 beer glasses. We only ate in once though so not a problem. The pool are on the roof is nice for a dip but a little too small and shallow for a swim. The kids still loved it though. You can book into the Hotel to use the pool for the day this costs €35 per adult and you get to use the money at the hotel bar for drinks food and snacks. This was a really nice pool with a great view and the food was excellent also so well worth it. Checkin was delt with at the hotel reception which is not really made clear anywhere. All in all a great base for the week in Olaho which is a lovely traditional Algarve town with plenty of great restaurants and island beaches to explore.

The apartment does not provide any housing services. Towels are old and fir any extra towel you have to pay, no tissue paper as well as no coffee or tea and simple things that you can use the kitchen. For us was useless to have full kitchen and we weren’t aware that those essential stuff would nit be provided. This wasn’t the first time we rented an apartment for vacation. Front desk staff are not responding to the call and the text messages. Poor experience overall!

This was my second stay here at the Marina residence. It was wonderful both times. Spacious apartment and good basic amenities in the kitchen. Good wifi. Good location within walking distance to several dining options. We used the rooftop pool too which was very good, clean, toilet and changing facilities available. All in all a good stay I’d highly recommend.
