Reviews for Apartamentos Carteia
Review 1:nothing
Review 2:was a great well equiped apartment in a good location on the beach ,but was a bit of a walk into town if ya not a good walker but it was a very enjoyable walk
Review 3:nothing not to like here the area is completely accessible and very near all the shops and bars resturants.
Review 4:From the moment we arrived to the time we left The views the staff and the holiday was completely enjoyable and stress free
Review 5:The location of this apartment is perfect, and the staff are so friendly and helpful, especially Annabelle and Beatriz. I highly recommend these apartments, seafront location, with lovely restaurants close by. Photos dont do it justice , many apartments renovated .Stunning views from apartment .
Review 6:Even though we visited the Apartments at the end of the season with Quarteria closing down for the off season, there was still plenty of choice for eating out in lovely local places along the promanade towards Quarteria (10-15mins along the sea). We were away from the hustle and bustle of Vilamoura but still went in on four of the 8 nights for a few drinks. It was only around 7euros for a taxi in to the centre of Vilamoura. The beach was straight out of the apartment block a 1 min walk, lovely clean and tidy, you can hire sunbeds for the day 5euro for one with an unberella or 2 x 8euro/ 3x 10euros. We were on a golfing trip and organised golf transfers to and from Laguna/ Pinhal and Old Course for 40 euros per trip. A hire car is not needed but you can easily save on money if you have a driver. The local supermarket is across the main road leass than 5mins walk, and all reasonably priced (especially the red wine!). The apartments are basic and need of updating but really clean and washing machine and everything else you need. We also hired golf clubs for the week but would be returning next year with our own clubs and packing all the extra clothes and golf stuff in our golf bags! Bearice and Anabele were really helpful with any queries - so give the place a try for a relaxing trip to Portugal, we will be retunring next year!
Review 7:We booked an apartment seaside view overlooking promenade but were place in building one rd back directly over garage block !
Review 8:We were offered alternative accommodation
Review 9:The apartment had the oldest looking bedspread and couch throw I have ever seen! It looks like someone has gone to a house clearance and picked up old bits of furniture and silly ornaments. It really would not take much to turn this into a lovely modern flat.Just a couple of new bedspreads and get rid of all the old tat and with that view this would be a must have apartment. Only wifi in reception area. Despite these negatives I would stay here again as such good value.
Review 10:Fabulous location, right on seafront. Loved our view from the balcony and watching the sunsets from there. Good sized apartment and fully equipped kitchen with everything you could need. Nice pool.
Review 11:The bed was so hard we had to pad it with blankets and throws! Cannot fault anything otherwise.
Review 12:The apartment was basic and very clean in the ideal location for us, the quieter end of the promenade. Good restaurants close by and sun beds available a short walk away.
Review 13:None.
Review 14:Apartment is close to all the restaurants and bars in Quarteira. The beach is literally on the door step. Can't fault reception staff or cleaning staff. My 3rd stay. Hopefully back there in Feb. 2016!
Review 15:The sofa is not so comfortable unlike the other beds. There is no wi-fi in the rooms, only at the reception area.
Review 16:Location is excelent, the rest is very well.
Review 17:The balcony is not safe for children.
Review 18:The view from balcony was amazing, staff friendly and very helpfull, free parking place just over the street. Great value for money, highly recommand.
Review 19:Oven didn't work. The hotel and individual apartments could do with a big clean up. We had dirt smeared all over our balcony walls.
Review 20:Staff were very accommodating, location and views from our balcony were fantastic! Decent amenities in apartment however our oven didn't work. Pool ok. Great value for money and overall a lovely place to stay.
Review 21:The bed was terrible, very hard and uncomfortable. There was no dish soap and the nearby store only sold large containers which we were not going to purchase for our 3 day stay. We could hear quite a lot of noise from the apartment next door.
Review 22:The location was perfect. Right on the promenade, close to beaches and restaurants. The receptionist, Brigit (sp?) was superb, professional and helpful. She booked a shuttle from the airport, met us with keys to the apartment several hours after her work day was complete due to our plane arriving mid evening. The apartment has a lovely view from the deck and has a washing machine. Wifi is only available in the lobby.
Review 23:We would have liked more parasols by the pool
Review 24:We really liked the location and found the bed comfortable and it was great to have a washing machine and iron. We had a nice view from our balcony and we would like to return.
Review 25:Different zones on a beach - for own sun umbrellas and municipal one with prepaid umbrellas
Review 26:Very good location, just 30 mtrs to the beach, excellent wide beach, good cafe right on a beach, big appartments with balconies in each room, friendly personnel
Review 27:Being so close to the beach with a wonderful sea view and spacious apartment, Anabela and Beatrix at Reception were so friendly and helpful. Quiet peaceful area.
Review 28:Location right on the beach front with ocean views, yet quiet and relaxed. Reception staff most helpful and super friendly. Nice clean apartment with good kitchen, big Lidl supermarket 23 minutes walking distance, other shops even closer nearby. Also plenty of restaurants within 5 a minute walk. Overall good value for money.
Review 29:The wifi was only available in reception or outside reception which was annoying, but we used the beach and they have free wifi. Location wise although it's on the beach you have to walk a fair distance fir decent restaurants and a mix of shops, and the beach has about a four foot drop from beach to sea so you had to walk up the beach to swim.
Review 30:Tge apartment was clean and very large for two people which was brilliant! The kitchen was large enough and had very good equipment provided for you, although we had to buy out own washing up stuff which seemed a waste as we hardly used any of it in a week! The staff were friendly, especially the younger girl, and were always happy to answer queries or book taxis etc.
Review 31:Nothing
Review 32:Everything was great. Apartment not new, but You can find everything You need, and only 1 minute to beach. Girl in reception was very kind, we got beach umbrella for free and she let us to print Ryanair tickets. Obrigados :)
Review 33:Mosquito's got bit to death so take plenty of deterrents..
Review 34:Location.. right on beach and at quiet end of long promenade... lots of eating places and usual shops along the prom...
Review 35:Swimming pool under renovations. No Irish T.V channels and very few U.K ones either.
Review 36:The staff were friendly. It was right on the beach. Studio Apartment was a good size.
Review 37:we would have liked to be a little nearer the other end of the resort as it was a little too quit for us self catering equipment a bit sparse. But ok
Review 38:nice light apartment close to the sea front, good value for money, very friendly reception staff, very comfy bed
Review 39:nothing really, shower did tend to leak on floor which made wood at bottom of bathroom cabinet swell up and we couldn't open the cabinet doors. only a minor glitch
Review 40:The staff were very friendly and the location is great if you want a lazy, just hang out and do nothing much holiday. Soooo relaxing
Review 41:Swimming pool closed due to maintenance!!! We have not been informed about prior arrival
Review 42:Very friendly and helpful lady at the reception. Building itself look bit old but our apartment was renovated inside and kitchen all facilities bed and bath all new.
Review 43:Poor directions for the N125 and arriving in Quarteira meant we got lost driving several times driving in the dark. The pool was out of order, although we did have access to another across the road.
Review 44:40 euros a night was an amazing price for a large well equipped apartment in a quiet location by an excellent promenade next to a superb sandy beach. The staff were extremely helpful. Bars and restaurants and a bakery nearby.
Review 45:Nothing!
Review 46:Fabulous promenade/beaches with the road behind the frontline hotels/apartments so very safe for children. The sea could be a little rough so small children would need to be watched at the waters edge as it went deep very quickly. Everyone was so friendly. We were greeted by Annabella who was extremely helpful. The apartment was located at the far end of the promenade so was fairly quiet but next to a small play area for children. We felt very safe walking at night. The apartment was very clean and was well equipped. We slept listening to the sound of the sea. There was a beautiful nature reserve to the left of the apartment which we found walking along the top of the beach. With a restaurant/bar close by. Lots of bird life. We also walked to Vilamoura which will be connected eventually when the promenade is extended. Very close to bars, restaurants and supermarket. The bus depot was a short walk away. A car is not essential. Bikes are available for hire for 11 Euro per day.
Review 47:Kitchen appliances need upgrading. Pans were old and no longer non-stick, no grater, knives were blunt etc
Review 48:Location of this self catering apartment was perfect with a lovely view of the sea/beach from our balcony. It was a modest apartment, but comfortable and suitable for our requirements. The lace was spotlessly clean!
Review 49:Only downside was that the pool was closed for maintence, which we were not advised about. We had small children in our party & we chose the apartments based on the pool amongst other things.
Review 50:Warm welcome, friendly staff. Good clean apartments with good facilities. Fantastic location with lovely beach & children's play area's.
Review 51:Devour very dated. No wifi in apartment only in courtyard
Review 52:Location cannot be beaten well worth the extra for a sea view. Apartment clean and very spacious. Very good value for money. Supermarket a short walk away.
Review 53:Drain smells in kitchen and bathrooms. Noisy upstairs neighbours.
Review 54:Convenience of self catering. Sea view and friendly staff. In a very good location.
Review 55:Furniture and fittings very dated. Poor lighting making shaving or putting on make up difficult.Mismatched pots in kitchen and had to buy washing up equipment and matches for lighting gas. Cold apartment at this time of year although a heater was provided on request which we took from room to room. WiFi only available in office.
Review 56:Clean and secure,close to beach,supermarket,restaurants and promenade.Plenty of parking at this time of year nearby.
Review 57:Nothing 'bad'. A chopping board would be useful as an addition to the kitchen as I had to cut meat in the packet - I didn't want to damage or contaminate the worktop. I think swapping the double bed to the bedroom and the twin beds to the living room would be a better sleeping arrangement but that's just feedback rather than a 'negative' as it was a great place overall. :D
Review 58:Excellent price as an extra 2 nights for our holiday. Great size and a surprise that the 'studio' was in fact a 1 bedroom apartment with twin beds in the bedroom plus a double bed in the living room. Good size apartment and Anabela is lovely as was the member of staff from the cleaning team waiting for us when we arrived. A town I already know and I like this end of the prom as it's quiet and non-touristy. Front row and literally step out onto the beach. Would definitely book again for another out of season break, wouldn't want to pay much more for the apartment (but don't visit places in high season due to numbers and high costs generally for holidays) but for this time of year, less than £20 a night was a bargain. Didn't try the wifi as we had our own router with us.
Review 59:Lack of WiFi was a problem for us. The 'business center' is the reception area and only open for a few hours. Parts of the building are in real need of attention, and it is poorly insulated in the winter. We spent a whole morning mopping up water in the lounge which had come through closed windows.
Review 60:Good location. Room was clean, spacious and comfortable. Kitchen well equipped.
Review 61:The heating was inadequate (not a problem in the summer) and the apartments were situated down the quieter end of the promenade
Review 62:Right on seafront which was flat and the beach was to hand for summer bathing.
Review 63:the staff could not do enoth for us, it was far better than we expeted, we asked for a sea view and got one , near to good supermarkets. shops, pubs, bus stops
Review 64:broken shower, broken shower door,reception only 2hrs x twice a day.heavy entry doors and steps.
Review 65:location, right on the beach.close to plenty of cafes and supermarkets
Review 66:There was no safe or hair dryer in the apartment.
Review 67:The place was spotless and every comfort of home with a kitchen area that was well stocked with utensils and appliances including a washing machine. It was very conveniently located and the staff were very friendly and helpful!
Review 68:Pool chemicals a bit strong but perhaps with some not showering assupposed necessary. Beds a little hard I used extra duvet under sheet .WiFi poor non existent in apartment had to go out near reception toconnect. A little run down as mentioned in plus column. I read e reviewof someone mentioning balcony dangerous for small children although wedo not have them I would strongly agree. Even on ground floor you wouldhave to be vigilant they could scramble over and pool is deep. All abovecomments I normally would not bother with but reviews are there to giveother travellers an informed opinion.
Review 69:Location was brilliant. Ground floor apartment overlooking pool and seawas bliss. Roomy . Good english channels on tv (rained a couple ofdays).Sofas quite comfy. Washing machine included microwave. Promenadeplus beach yards away. Quiet. Other guests were respectfully courteousall nationalities included. Restaurants nearby were excellent a nicewalk along promenade to get to. Annabel who showed us round apartmentand supplied keys was fantastic ( also very attractive don't tellthe missus ). All in all a fantastic apartment costing 360 eurosapproximately for 11 nights. Yes Perhaps a little run down but we had 2bedrooms so if you are a family it would suit you more. We arrived 11October for 11 nights didn't want to leave I could go on and on butI'll stop there.
Review 70:Side sea view Almost on the beach Tranquility & silence Fantastic place if you want to crash and simply rest, tan and swim after the whole year of hard work
Review 71:We travelled as a family group. The location was excellent.. right on beach and promenade.. my parents stayed at these apartmenrs cartiea and we stayed in the apt block across the road.. apts were so big and spacious.. clean and fresh. Anabela on reception was very nice. Would recommend and definitely stay there again. Great value for money..
Review 72:No comments really! Liked everything.
Review 73:The location was perfect! Just a few meters away from the beach and the restaurant located in the same building was great! The man attending was very nice and prepared a local dish specially for us. I would recommend it to everyone definitely!
Review 74:No swimming pool for small kids,
Review 75:Lady on reception very friendly and helpfull. Really good location,close to beach and shops. I've been in July thought its gonna be very busy but wasn't.room been on main Street site and it wasn't loud at night-which I was worry about.
Review 76:Hot water supply was limited as it came from water heater installed in kitchen, so you can't take a long hot shower if someone else wants a bath right after you. That's about the only thing we didn't like about our stay.
Review 77:Excellent location, 1 min walk to the ocean, 1 min to nearest grocery store. Apartment was big, with good kitchen and all necessary kitchen appliances. Towels were changed a few times a week, and the staff was very helpful with everything.
