We booked last minute flights with Globespan for a 5 day break. After many evenings trawling through the internet, looking at airlines, hotels, apts, trip advisor, holiday watchdog etc etc. We decided to book through Globespan direct and we were allocated accommodation at the Algarve Mor Apartments in Praia Da Rocha.
They were great!! Best apartments we have been to, I think!
The rooms were huge. Massive bathroom , kitchen, little seperate balcony for your washing. The lounge had a sofa (which I think doubled as a sofabed, and a little bed was set up for our 4 year old daughter. In the separate bedroom there were another 2 single beds. Good sized balcony with amazing views. To our left was the lovely beach and to the right hand side was the harbour..
Also a strange thing.... we were on the 8th floor (top) and the corridor we were on had 3 sets of patio doors at different angles giving cracking views over the beach and the harbours again...
The staff on reception were very helpfull as I had food poisoining (from Aqua Zoo, don't eat fish at their restuarants unless you want to be ill for a day or 2!).
Also the location is really central, 5 mins from the beach and right amongst things. Not too noisy though as we had no problems sleeping nor did our 4 yr old..
Downside.. well none really. the only thing I would say is that the pool which is on the first floor! is a little bit small. But it wasn't all that busy when we were here in September so it was fine. Also the supermarket next door to the apartments is a total rip off. We bought a couple of bags of messages and it came to 80 euros, I nearly fell over.... Well shafted. and that was with 4 cans of beer and no other alcohol..
However a good time was had and I would recommend this accommodation. Hope this helps someone with their future booking. We will be returning booking direct through the apts in November this year!
