"Great hotel, large room, great breakfast!"

"The hotel provided an excellent experience, boasting a prime location and commendable service. The rooms were impeccably maintained. However, the hotel restaurant presented a significant challenge. Despite booking a day in advance for our group of four families, the dining experience was subpar. We encountered a 1.5-hour wait for our food, which was ultimately disappointing in both quality and portion size. Furthermore, the restaurant's policy of offering only one serving of certain menu items per evening, such as the Wellington steak, meant that if a dish was ordered by an earlier guest, it became unavailable for subsequent patrons throughout the night. Other than this everything was excellent."

"All good "

"We have a great stay, the house is in a great location and has all the amenities you need for a great holiday."

"It was clean. Staff was very friendly."

"Lovely place to stay. "

"The good:The property was really clean. Aircon worked great. Pool was fab. Location great. The ladies at Algarve Vacation were quick to respond to emails. Great automatic ice maker.The not so great: The remote control for the gates did not work and apparently Algarve Vacation knew about this as they have had a number of complaints. I asked why they didn't tell us as this would have resulted in a less stressful arrival at midnight but received no explanation. The hire car had to therefore stay all week on a nearby street rather than the private driveway. The house definitely needs some tlc. The front door is very stiff so the first time you try to open it you think the key doesn't work. Eventually you just get used to shouldering it open. There are screen doors at the back without screens allowing flies in the house. The outdoor dining area needs a new cover over the roof as there were lots of holes, some quite large and unsightly.I don't mind sitting on rattan chairs without cushions but a cushionless rattan sofa is simply not acceptable and in no way useable. The layout in the living room/dining room is odd with the TV beside the dining table rather than the sofa and considering the villa sleeps 6 (or perhaps more) the sofa only seats 3. You'll get a crick in your neck from watching TV from the sofa. There is no welcome information so we had no idea where to take rubbish or when the pool and garden guys would appear without warning, no local recommendations etc."

"Our stay at Orange Grove Residence was amazing! The property is beautiful set in an orange grove overlooking green rolling hills. It is newly finished with upscale amenities and more than accommodated for all our needs! It offered plenty of living space with two living areas inside, two upstairs balconies and a seating area facing the pool in front of our unit. We were greeted with prompt, excellent customer service and a lovely welcome basket which included wine, bread, coffee and an assortment of other goodies. On the kitchen table were delicious oranges picked fresh from the orchard on property. We were sad to leave and hope to return soon! Many thanks to Felipe and Manuel! Obrigado!"
