Apartamento O Jardins da Marina

In an ideal location ground floor apartment was great for kids to pop to pool etc Also very close to marina 👌

Not allowing kids to play with inflatables in the pool very frustrating for the kids

Spacious & well equipped. Pool fabulous & location ideal.

Only one key

I read the positive reviews before booking and wondered if there was a catch. I'm happy to report there was none. The apartment was fabulous - it was so spacious, and had doors leading straight out to the beautiful communal garden. It meant I was able to sit outside while my children napped in their bedroom right beside me. I also liked how the outside area was slightly shaded for much of the day, so it wasn't as hot for my boys. Some of the outdoor areas of the other apartments were in the direct sun. We were so close to a beautiful swimming pool too - though not close enough that I was worried about the boys running off and falling in. There is an en suite and a separate bedroom (with twin beds) and bathroom. This worked out really well, as my mother and sister accompanied my family on this trip. They were far enough away from our bedroom that the boys' excited squeals didn't disturb them (much) in the morning if they wanted a lie-in. The kitchen had a microwave, pots, pans etc, a fridge and washing machine. The host arranged transport for us to and from the airport and met us with the keys on arrival. If you are considering booking this apartment, go ahead and book, safe in the knowledge that you have made a good decision. Enjoy your stay!

The apartment was a 20 minute walk from Albufeira town centre, which feels longer with young children in the heat. There is however a marina that's less than a five minute walk away. It has plenty of restaurants, shops and entertainment.

Lovely apartment. Very accomadating host she allowed us to check in early as we had a disaster with previous accomadation. Fabulous apartment very near marina and 20 walk to Old Town. Very quiet in the night time. Lovely spotless pool, very well kept grounds.

Nothing

The pool is amazing (especially the kids pool for toddlers!). The location to the marina, where there is lots to do any time of day. It's close to Albufeira town too and the actual apartments are also lovely! There is an Aldi and Lidl very close to get a big food shop or lots of restaurants 5 mins walk. It's our second visit and we LOVE it here.
