It is here that the iconic view of the Old Town can be appreciated whilst having your breakfast.

The apartment is located on the -1 floor, however the view corresponds to a 2nd floor, it has to do with the inclination of the building.

The Apartment is 400m from Peneco Beach and 600m from Fishermen's Beach and is ideal for those who want to enjoy a holiday without using the car, as it has all facilities within a short walking distance, such as supermarkets, restaurants, bars, shops and many other services, such as pharmacies. The taxi rank and Hop On / Hop Off Albufeira are a five-minute walk away. There is parking in front of the condominium for guests with a car.

The famous beaches of Salgados, Galé and São Rafael are just a ten-minute drive away. This beautiful apartment is suitable for all ages. If you are looking for an action-packed holiday, a peaceful beach experience, water sports, sailing, golf, hiking, horse riding, wine tasting, great meals and exploration of the Algarve Region, Garden Hill Old Town has the ideal location.

We had a wonderful time at this property! From the moment we arrived, everything was exactly as described. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was ideal – peaceful and private, yet close enough to walk to (5 mins approx) local attractions, shops, and restaurants. Our host was fantastic – responded swiftly to any queries i had prior to our arrival and was welcoming, and thoughtful. The little touches like a welcome basket were greatly appreciated on our arrival and made us feel right at home. We would absolutely return and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Thank you for such a memorable

Nice apartment in good location. Shame about the bathrooms

Very spacious and clean and a short walk (albeit up/down a steep hill) to the bars and restaurants of the Old Town. Well equipped kitchen although things like bin liners and more than 2 dish washer tablets would have been appreciated. Basic condiments would also have been good. Only real negative were the bathrooms. One very small and near front door rather than adjacent to bedrooms. The other had a fancy jacuzzi but no shower (or at least no shower curtain - just a wall shower attachment that sprayed into the middle of the bathroom). Probably ok for a family but as we were two couples sharing the apartment full individual bathrooms would have been better. Pool table needs levelling!

Lovely apartment, well equipped, residential area though

The apartment looks just like the photographs, downside, it was located up a steep hill so you need to be fairly fit and as i stated it is residential, apart from that no complaints, lovely pool (although the toilet near the pool needed toilet roll, hand wash and air freshener)

OCVillas, Albufeira und Condominio Garden Hill Bloco B/Apartment L (Erdgeschoss), Maria Teresa Semed

Kein persönlicher Empfang durch OCVillas. Genaue Adresse und Wohnungsübernahmeprozedere (Codes für Schlüsselboxen Bloco B und Apartment L) wurden uns per Mail mitgeteilt. Einige wichtige Mängel an der Wohnung sind Schimmelbefall, unhygienische Verschmutzung, muffige Gerüche und Unterhaltsdefizite an der Wohnung etc. Keine Wohnung zum geniessen, krankheitsgefährdender Zustand. Die Wohnungsvermittlerin OCVillas gab zu, dass die Wohnung von einer Überschwemmung betroffen war und die Renovation wegen fehlender Versicherungszusage noch nicht erfolgen konnte. Nach einer Woche verliessen wir die Wohnung und flogen in die Schweiz zurück. OCVillas erstattete uns nur einen sehr kleinen Mietbetrag zurück. Offeriert wurde zusätzlich ein geringer Gutschein für einen zukünftigen Aufenthalt in einer ihren Wohnungen. Gültigkeit bis 31.7.2025. Diesen haben wir zurückgewiesen, da kein weiterer Aufenthalt an der Algarve geplant mehr ist. Fazit: Kundenunfreundliche Betreuung vor Ort durch OCVillas. Keine Kulanz oder Unterstützung bei Abbruch des Aufenthaltes. Der einwöchige Aufenthalt kostete uns einige tausende Euros. Sehr dreckige Wohnung mit krankheitserregenden Feuchtigkeits- und Schimmelbefall. Wohnung dürfte in diesem Zustand nicht vermietet werden. Unser Autovermieter Luzcar mit Sitz in Lagos war dagegen sehr kulant und berechnete uns nur 1 Woche Miete für das Auto.
