Lovely seaside apartment
We very much enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment. The views to the sea and beach were incredible. We enjoyed the area and felt safe. Upon arrival there was a complication due to a previous big storm: Grace was there in minutes and solved the problem. Would highly recommend this beautiful spot and lovely hostess!

Beautiful Algarve
We spent a wonderful 9 days in Grace's apartment. The apartment is cozy and practically furnished, and the beautiful view from the two balconies is an additional plus point. Grace welcomed us personally and very friendly. We felt very comfortable and can highly recommend this apartment.

Paradise Penthouse
We were two couples traveling together looking for a place with separate bedrooms and bathrooms. This fit the bill and included a million dollar view. It's an older place and comes with some issues that the owners promptly attended to. We drove to the Algarves and the apt included an underground parking spot! Grace and Alfredo were lovely and so helpful.

The Best Location
We stayed at this property for five nights with another couple. The apartment was exactly as described and the view of the beach was spectacular. It was located right on a strip with supermarkets, restaurants and shops all within a quick stroll out the front door. I highly recommend reserving this apartment. If we ever return to Portugal we would not hesitate to return here!

Gorgeous view of Praia da Rocha from the top floor.
Very nice apartment, right across from the beach and on the main avenue. Everything is right outside the door - restaurants and shopping. The apartment is very nicely appointed with a huge master suite. The fact that it comes with parking is a very nice bonus.

Communication with Grace was always fast and clear. She even helped communicate with Uber drivers to locate our lost phone which was greatly appreciated. The apartment is very large, well stocked and we enjoyed listening to the waves and watching boats from the sunrooms.

We arrived at 4pm. Check in was 3pm. Cleaning lady still there and we had to leave and come back at 5:30pm. Air conditioner leaked water no mention of needing to empty it. Not enough hot water for 5 ppl to shower. Very loud in the main bedroom at night. Also needs an update very old looking. Overpriced for this stay.

Perfect home and location!
We had the BEST stay in Portimao staying at Graca's penthouse apartment. Perfect location, right on the boardwalk. Lots of shopping and restaurants right out the front door. Garage parking with the Penthouse rental. The views are stunning from not 1 but 2 balconies! Graca was an excellent hostess. She has a very comprehensive manual of all electronics and appliances in the Penthouse. Highly recommend the area, the Penthouse and especially Graca as a hostess.

Canadians who loved our stay!!
Graca and Fred were wonderful hosts. Oven and smart tvs were installed while we were there which was great. Condo is close to grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Half hour walk to the football stadium. Nice having a parking spot and the enclosed decks especially on windy or rainy days. However the windows open all around on nice days. Boardwalk on the beach is sensational.

Wonderful stay
Graca's apartment is absolutely perfect! Very clean and confortable with astounishing views from 2 large balconies! Graca is very nice and helpful! We found everything we needed in the apartment and we payed extra for sheets and towels but very soft and tick towels, definitely worth it! Kitchen is fully equiped with everything you have at home! The place is just across the road from the golden sandy beach but there are stairs to get to this beach ( we couldn't find a way with no stairs to get to the beach). 2 supermarkets with very good food and all necessities are very close by. The apartment is very close to many restaurants with amazing food: Mursa, Asia, Spot 3 and Castelos. We loved our holiday there! Thank you Graca!

Fabulous beach week in Praia de Rocha
If you could get any building closer to the main beach in Praia de Rocha it would be hard to find. Fabulous apartment on the 111th floor with two enclosed sunrooms. One east facing and one west. The building is directly across from the stairs down. The apartment was as described, everything you could need, short walk to the grocery store, and the many restaurants. Graça met us, even after our train was delayed and had trouble getting to the apartment. She showed us the apartment and was east to communicate with. I would definitely look to stay again, when we return.

14 wonderful days in Portimao
We found a beautiful, spacious and very well-equipped holiday apartment (penthouse). The two fully glazed balconies with sea views, one on the western and one on the eastern side of the building, invite you to have breakfast and a romantic end to the evening. Because one of the two is always in the shadow of the building, we were able to enjoy the view of the sea during breakfast and doze off on the other balcony in the afternoon between the beach and dinner. Just vacation. We enjoyed our time out and can only recommend the accommodation. The only point that was unpleasant is the following... We arrived in the evening and didn't see that the balcony windows facing the sea were dirty with salt, so we were very disappointed on our first morning when we had to look at the sea through the dirty windows. But that's whining at a high level. I cleaned the relevant windows and from then on it was great.

Penthouse Praia de Roche
Spacious, neatly furnished, penthouse on 11th floor. Close to beach but also audible nightlife in weekends. Is in need of technical maintenance (shutters, doors, lock, lights, toilet seat, huge not working television in bedroom). No proper air extraction from ventilation shafts in bathrooms and kitchen. Neighbor's kitchen extraction hood pushes vapors in your kitchen. Humid apartment with mildew at ceiling. No satellite television as advertised but only a cable box after asking. No central heating but partial heating by 3 air conditioning units. Enclosed balconies on both sides were pleasant during our stay from December 13th – January 10th. Neighbor's trash and stored goods in the top hallway are an eyesore and might hamper a safe escape or access to caregivers.

Excelente localização
O apartamento corresponde ao descrito no anúncio. A cozinha está muito bem equipada (equipamentos modernos), mais até do que descrito no anúncio (tem forno, Airfryer, máquina café compatível nespresso). Tem uma vista incrível e fica logo em frente as escadas de acesso para a praia. A garagem comum coberta foi um fator decissivo. Há um intermarché em spar a escassos metros do prédio. O apartamento é quente( por ser último andar) mais tem ar condicionado na sala e nos quartos. Embora localizado no 11 andar, mesmo assim ouve se algum ruído da rua, mas é compreensível uma vez que a praia da Rocha tem bastante animaçao noturna. A cama e as almofadas são muito confortáveis. As vezes vinha um cheiro à esgoto mais intenso na casa de banho de serviço (deve ser da canalização do prédio) mas nada demais. Nos primeiros dias tivemos um barulho que foi difícil de identificar (um chiado) que incomodava a noite. verificou se que vinha do termo acumulador que estava fechado numa divisão perto da cozinha, Mas com a ajuda da Da Graça lá conseguimos descobrir a origem, e um técnico veio resolver a avaria quase de imediato. A porta da casa de banho da suite não é muito fácil de fechar, pode ser melhorado. De resto a experiência foi muito positiva e se eu tiver outra oportunidade voltarei.
