Sipping coffee in the morning and a cold beer in the afternoon on the balcony was a delight, such a beautiful view across the beach and to the cliffs opposite, the sunsets were something too and the sound of waves crashing at night a treat. The manager Miguel and the beautiful 'Tulipa' were warm and friendly hosts. The pool area was neat & tidy with an even better view down to the beach. The appts are well place for a clifftop walk to Luz and a short stroll down into Burgau for meals and drinks. Mine was well equipped, clean, spacious, and with a comfortable bed

Lots of flies in porch/entrance and hard to keep them out of the apartment. Wi-Fi could be ropey at times.

It is exactly as described on booking.com. The views are fabulous from all apartments and the apartment itself was immaculate. The kitchen and bathroom are newly refurbished while the rest has an older look but they complement each other well and it feels like home away from home. The couple that own the place are extremely helpful and accommodating. The bed was very comfortable and they provided a cot for our baby. We had hot water all day and the facilities inside the apartment were perfect for every need. If you’re looking for comfort, good value and stunning location then you’ve come to the right place!

The excellent location and the humour of the owner. A quiet retreat from the busy areas of Luz or Portmão. I loved everything about this place. Large apartments, on site bar, great wifi and entertaining clientele.

Photos don’t do the property justice (and they look good!). Big rooms. Well stocked kitchen. Patio has such an amazing view. My boys loved the pool. Miguel is an absolute gem! Very attentive to any questions or needs. Burgau was such a nice getaway, beach was amazing and not over crowded. I am hoping we can make this an annual retreat for our family; one of the best vacation experiences we have had! Thank you Miguel!!!

Be warned, no AC and can get hot at night during summer, windows open to let in nice breeze, but also mosquitoes. Not enough of a problem to diminish our stay, but you should bring some bug spray, or netting if bugs are an issue for you.

The location of the apartment could not have been better, just a few minutes walk from the beach and even closer to the nearby restaurants. The apartment was clean, great in size with newly refurbished kitchen and bathroom, but still with a nice traditional Portuguese feel to it. Very nice and quiet during the nights, no traffic noise at all. Large sunny balcony with stunning seaviews over the Burgau village and beach, perfect for watching sunsets. Parking was available underneath the apartments, which was very handy. The pool area for residents on top of the cliff top was great with lovely clean pool, plenty of sunbeds and simply gorgeous seaviews overlooking whole of Burgau and the beach! Fran was very helpful with all our questions before our arrival and Miguel was great and very friendly on site throughout our stay 😊 We will definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it!

A curtain on the kitchen window would provide a bit more privacy from the flat opposite, but not a big issue at all.

Very nice apartment with bedroom/kitchenette and living room By far, best feature was the back porch with a view down into the town and beach. That porch alone makes it a great place to stay. Cliff walk starts at the end of the hotel; great way to start your day. Multiple restaurants to choose from; all we tried were fun and offered good food and great sangria!

Somewhat dated kitchen, though functional and well equipped.

View of beach, town and sunset wonderful. Check in easy. Nice to have a full appartment with kitchen and separate bedroom. Fancy towel warmer rack and mirror defogger in bathroom, first time we had those on our trip. Comfortable supplys for 2. Pool wind protected. Nice village to walk around the small streets. Beach clean and not crowded but was preseason and too cold. Street parking available preseason.

Google directions bad. Single lane streets in village for driving a bit daunting.

The view was the highlight. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was adequately equipped. The living space was large and the balcony in a fabulous spot for the best views. The bath room was modern with nice walk in shower and fixed glass panel. The kitchen was modern and the rest of the apartment decor preserved a bit of traditional local charm.

The toilet seat was a bit wobbly. Parking is a bit tricky because the street is so steep, though we always found space very near by. Plenty of places to eat but you do need to book and most only take cash

Great location overlooking beach in Burgau. Good value. 2 bedroom apartment. Lots of room including full kitchen and washing machine. Well stocked with kitchen items for a longer stay. Balcony overlooking beach. Responsive hosts. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Hiking trail starts near hotel.

Minor. Could use washing machine guide- lots of buttons!

Wonderful view of the beach, ocean and cliffs. The upgrades to the unit (double sealed glass windows/doors; stove top; heated towel rack, etc) along with the older furnishings (chandeliers, dining table, china cabinet, beverage cart) and very comfortable bed made our stay very comfortable. The hosts are very accommodating.

Finding the place was difficult even with Google Maps.
