Falésia II - Nice Apartment - Vilamoura

Amount of available space, comfortable settee, location, view from balcony.

Unavailability of dedicated sunbeds by the pool. Whilst there were some sunbeds on the balcony most of the ones around the pool were owned by specific apartments. Patio umbrella was broken (which had been mentioned in previous reviews). Our electricity went out for no apparent reason however someone came to fix it within a couple of hours. Lock at the front door is a proper issue (which has also been mentioned in previous reviews). Whilst I understand it might be an issue for the building maintenance to fix it really does need sorted. Several times we thought that we weren't going to be able to get into the building!

We love the location. The outlook. Spacious apartment. Large balcony.

The difficult front door lock. Shortage of kitchen equipment ( soon rectified,once we informed HD properties) No instructions for appliances. The information on booking.com states the property has a lift,but there isn't. The pool needs some maintenance as there were lots of tiles missing and the sides of the pool were green all round the top of the water.( we did inform HD properties whilst we were there and understand that this is a condominium problem)

Nice garden and pool

Very dated with poor maintenance in the terrace. Electrical goods tripping frequently.

Localização boa

Colchões de cama muito desconfortáveis, com covas. Varanda suja com ervas daninhas e sujidade, guarda sol partido. Louça de cozinha escassa. Porta da entrada do prédio muito difícil de abrir, várias vezes a porta estava aberta. Piscina com revestimento solto tipo pastilha, várias zonas sem pastilha e espalhada ao longo da piscina. Relva envolvente na zona da piscina, em mau estado de conservação.

Very clean. The balcony is huge with chairs and sun bed, and a door to it from every room. The pool view is nice. The lady that checked us in was nice and helpful and came in and went over everything, but she never mentioned the tricky front door lock. We were almost locked outside for the night if it wasn’t for a lady who lived in the bottom floor that we knocked on her balcony door and she came out and opened it for us. Walkable to the Marina during the day light. Extra big bathroom in master bedroom. Plenty room for a family. Tip, download the Bolt App before you go, Bolt is usually cheaper and more available than Uber.

The lock to the front door of the building takes A LOT of getting used to. We complained and asked for help but weren’t there when someone came to show us the knack of opening it so we were sent a video showing us the knack of opening it. It doesn’t work properly and you could easily be locked outside late at night. It really needs to be changed. No place to leave your bag or go to the toilet after you check out, so if your flight is later and you want to stay by the pool for a while or walk to the Marina, you have to take all your suitcases with you. The twin beds in the 2nd room are very hard and uncomfortable even with the extra foam piece on top of them. The shutters are tricky. The walk to the Marina isn’t as easy as it looks on the map. It’s not a bright busy road and there is a lot of construction along the route we took so the foot paths are not that safe.

Location, staff, rooms

Kitchen could be better equipped

Not too busy, great facilities and location.

External needed some TLC. Weeds everywhere, pool not clean, tiles missing.

The two bedroom apartment was very spacious & clean with a large balcony and a nice outlook over the garden and pool. It's well situated and has a couple of supermarkets and cafes nearby. The Marina and beach is only 25 min walk..I would stay here again.

The apartment was fairly well equipped but could have done with a few more cups and large beer glasses .and possibly more pans for cooking.. The write-up on property says there's a lift, but I could not find it. Main issue was with the front door to the apartment block as key would not work and had to try for several minute every time to get it to work ,which if no one was in my apartment to let me in I would have been locked out...it really needs to get sorted .
