Barracuda ByTheSea

The location right by beach and just a walk away from the new town strip ideal .The apartment is nice and spacious with lovely kitchen and sitting room. The pool is lovely.

No housekeeping for the whole week but understand it’s self catering, wouldn’t mind a freshen up halfway through week as staying long though, also no security at night time and as group of girls staying bit uneasy.

Everything about the apartment was great location perfect for me.And this time of year nice and quiet.

Just the bathroom for elderly I am 86 and getting in to the shower was hard would be better with a shower curtain not that glass panel But if you’re young, I suppose it’s ok

2 minutes walk to the beach, full kitchen, very clean and Jessica was very accommodating as we were after midnight checking in due to a flight delay. A lot of previous reviews complained about the beds being uncomfortable, they were a bit stiff but I like a harder mattress so worked for us!

Pool not heated, a bit expensive compared to other properties that friends booked for less that had more facilities as were in hotels/aparthotels that still had a full kitchen, multiple pools, breakfast etc

Location, standard, appartment size

Lovely location for walking to Old Town and New Town. Although we found the best restaurants within in walking distance that were nice and quiet.

The property could use updates to the furniture (couch and bed, very uncomfortable) and the bathroom. Bathroom could use a full renovation or at very least tub taps replaced with some that are more user friendly. I expect if you have arthritis in your hands you would never be able to turn the taps on or off. I had to use a towel to grip them. It would be nice if there were English operating instructions left for the washer and dryer. We managed to figure it out but it took a couple of days. Also, it would be convenient if there was a list of big supermarkets that are close by. We learned about bigger supermarkets a few days before we left.

Lovely clean apartment, perfect location. Pool area was lovely and clean, a few minutes walk to the beach. Walking distance to both Old Town and New Town. Amazing service from Kevin after we locked our passports inside just before travelling to the airport. We still made our flight so thank you!! We absolutely loved our first stay in Portugal and would definitely book again 😊

There was nothing not to like.

Unit was very well equipped and reasonably spacious. The water taps in the bath were the worst and the most difficult we have ever encountered anywhere !. The kitchen was superbly equipped, apart for having only 2 teaspoons which was ridiculous.!!

Good size. Quiet. Near the beach. Fully equipped. Lovely terrace which caught the sun in the morning to mid afternoon out of the wind. Lovely looking pool but too cold in March. Gardens well maintained.

The bed and sofa needed to be more comfortable and less noisy. The “taps” for the shower needed replacing. Anyone with dexterity problems wouldn’t be able to use them. We are able bodied but if you have mobility problems you’d need a car or to get taxis everywhere.
