Great location in Olhão, with partial sea views and a spacious balcony. The one-bedroom apartment is suitable for a small family or couple. The furniture needs updating, the apartment needs maintenance, and the kitchen lacks many of the basic cooking utensils. I wasn’t satisfied 100% of my five-day stay because, I thought they provided daily cleaning, fresh towels, and amenities, even though it was all paid for! The reception staff were very polite always, with one word on their mouth whenever I asked about anything: the apartment has nothing to do with the hotel services, and you have to pay extra 20€ to have towels or any extra amenities.

We really enjoyed our stay and the apartment was immaculate. We were kindly upgraded to a stunning two bedroom apartment and we were even able to have a later checkout. We visited in December so there was not a lot to do nearby. However the local restaurants were very friendly and the breakfast in the morning was amazing!

Me and my family stayed for 3 nights ar Real Marine Residence. The two bedroom flat was excellent. We had a everting what we need for our stay. The only things that we could not take advantage was the roof top swiming pool due to the weather. The staff were very kind and helpfull. We paid for breakfast for duration of our stay and we was given one day free breakfast. We really enjoy our stay and will recomended this hotel to our freinds

Great apartment, perfect position near restaurants and shops. The only issue we had was at the check in. We didn’t receive any instructions by email and the address we had was wrong. I asked for help to the Marina Residence Team using the whatsapp chat and I received a reply the following day. We spent one hour going around the main street looking for the residence (Google unfortunately confirmed the wrong address we had, and we didn’t know what to do!) We were just lucky to pop in and ask information at the Marina Hotel , and this was the place where we should have done the check in. Nobody told us. The staff of the hotel was always nice and helpful . The flat was great. You can be unlucky and find very noisy neighbours (this happened only the last night, a group of tourists next to us decided to party on the balcony until 4am) ; there isn’t a front desk, so you need to deal with it on your own. Olaho is very nice and close to wonderful beaches (Armona). Be careful to walk around the small hidden street of the village especially during the evening, because we had a couple of unpleasant situations when we refused to give money to some guys begging on the street, they started shouting at us and the second time a person tried to follow us after we got money at ATM. I suppose there is no place in the world where you can low your guard. Overall, a good experience.

The property was excellent, comfortable and very well equipped. The only thing wrong was no washing machine, however within 50m of the apartment there was a self service laundrette.
