Do not stay here unless you fancy paying for a bush tucker trial.
Pros:

The accommodation was a short walk from a nice beach.

Cons:

DO NOT STAY HERE. Please see attached photos. By the middle of the first day there, the lobby was INFESTED with mosquitoes. It wasn’t great but we dealt with it as best we could. This is partly because they keep the doors to the building open all day. The issue is that when we returned late on the first night and had to enter our room, despite us closing the door as fast as we could, a SWARM followed us into our room and for the rest of the night we had to contend with them. Not only that, but the bathroom was INFESTED with ants! It was so bad we had to leave a night early. When we showed the staff our photo evidence, they were very rude and we were told that “this is normal for hot countries” and “we shouldn’t have opened the door” (not quite sure how they expected us to get in). I asked for a refund but they refused and offered no attempt to mitigate the issue. We have stayed in many hot places and many accommodations, even 2 more on our stay in Portugal, but we have NEVER EVER seen mosquito infestations like this, and the staff just don’t seem to care. The bare minimum such as closed doors and mosquito nets are not met and they expect their guests to just deal with sharing a room with hundreds of other visitors. I would not stay here again if they paid me.

Dobre miejsce, Cena niewspółmierna.
Pros:

Obiekt zlokalizowany poza Armacao, w Porches. Do Armacao dłuższy spacer lub kilka minut samochodem.
Najbliższe plaże oddalone kilka minut piechotą. Podobnie do najbliższych knajpek. Z marketów w okolicy - najbliżej Intermarche. Do dyspozycji basen - wspólny dla zespołu bloków. Podwójny balkon - z częstymi ptasimi wizytami :)
Dobre miejsce wypadowe do okolicznych atrakcji - jak jaskinia Benajil.
Apartamenty są sprzątane - cyklicznie.
Duży plus za samodzielne zameldowanie (klucze w skrytce) - choć nie było tego w opisie.

Cons:

Opis dość niefortunny - widok na ogród to tak na prawdę parking i jakiś ogrodzony plac - być może przyszłej budowy.
Sypialnia bez klimatyzacji. Miejsca do spania w salono-kuchni to stary składak (dla naszych dzieci rozdzielony)
Rozczarowuje wyposażenie - kuchnia - bardziej niż skromnie. Brak jakichkolwiek środków czystości.
W łazience mydełko i 2 rolki papieru dla 4 osobowej rodziny na 2 tygodnie. (podczas sprzątania po tygodniu uzupełniono o kolejne 2)
2000€ za 2 tygodnie to widocznie za mało na takie luksusy jak płyn do naczyń i gąbka.

Ideal no simples
Pros:

A localização é incrível. Muito perto da praia
A piscina muito limpa e sem muitas pessoas.
A simpatia do senhor que nos recebeu também é um ponto bastante positivo.

Cons:

O tamanho do quarto, que é junto com uma espécie de sala foi o que mais nos incomodou. Com crianças fica difícil não dormir quando dormem também.
No entanto, para passar poucas noites é bom.
