    Eka was an amazing host, she was always responsive and gave us great tips for our stay that really helped for us to have a great experience in Sal Rei. Also we got a free pickup from the airport! We recommend the room with the terrace for amazing views!

    Unfortunately, we could not stay at the balcony in the evening due to plenty of biting insects

    We loved the apartments a lot. The location is both close to the beach and the town. The rooms are very nice and decorated and made with attention to detail. The kitchen is very well equipped. Eka is super friendly and helpful!

    Lovely location next to the beach, apparment had everything we required , We had apparment on side ground floor which never go sun on balcony all day but beach is yard's away. Local restaurants were good value and host had left helpful guide off lots of key locations in area. Pick up and drop off again arranged by host very smooth and only took 10min. Overall great spot it you just want to chill.

    I got unlucky with my room. It had no view and had a path running next to it and another apartment building about 15m away, so noisy. Ask for a room overlooking the beach, with a view. It'd be a lot nicer and you can sit out on your balcony early in the morning or in the late afternoon or evening, or watch the sunset etc, as the location's lovely. My room was cleaned once in 5 days, on day 4.

    That they left a bottle of water in the fridge on arrival; there was a local mobile given to us to contact the staff with questions or issues; that they laid on a taxi to/from the airport; we were given a beach towel; and there was security

    we couldn’t connect to the apartment Wi-Fi but we’re able to use the ‘garden’ Wi-Fi. would also make a minor suggestion for improvement…more hangers in wardrobe

    the location is stunning! We stayed in the Coral apartment with a fantastic, spacious terrace. The bed was very comfortable. Hosts very responsive before and during stay, particularly appreciated airport transfer…all very easy and stress free

    Lovely place. Ayana and Chris are always there, happy to help with anything you might need. They even leave a phone with local sim card, so you can make local calls if needed. Pick-up and drop-off to the airport is arranged by them and went really smooth. Ayana helped us arrange a tour and even got us discounted price. Unfortunately, we had to later cancel it, which was also unproblematic. The place itself is located right next to the beach and is close to several restaurants. Internet is a bit slow but generally enough for a whatsapp call.

    We had booked the apartment Lapa. Chris and Ayana are charming hosts who speak English, French, Portuguese, Italian and have good tips for excursions. The team on site was responsive at all times. The beach is right outside the door, beach chairs are available at various beach restaurants, 5 minutes walking distance. Breakfast cafes are also close by, with the Sodade restaurant run by Ayana and Chris particularly recommended.

    water didnt stay hot in the shower, but if your body is hot after walking around lukewarm didnt bother. shouldve packed earplugs - nearby noises will keep you waking up if light sleeper. all windows and doors creaking loud in apartments next to yours(depends also where your room is located ofcourse)

    ayana was super welcoming from the moment i arrived. always ready to reply my messages for any help i needed. place was clean and was cleaned by the maids every 2 days. everything you need, can think of you need in apartment was there. location is great - straight on the beach and town is small so all restaurants walking distance.

    This place was fab, very comfortable, spacious and clean. We had apartment with 2 bedrooms, kitchen with living room and good size bathroom. It was perfect for family 2+2. Good WiFi :) So close to the beach, the view from the big terrace was amaizing. Ayana, the owner was very friendly and helpful. This apartment has perfect location, it is close not only to the ocean but also to the town centre, where you can find good restaurants and local shops. We realy enjoyed our holidays in there!

    The owner arranged the airport transfer and met us at the property. She showed us where everything was and how it worked and then provided information about the local area including where to shop and eat. The owners also provided a mobile phone which could be used to communicate with them or to make local calls. The apartment was immaculately clean and well equipped and even came with a complimentary bottle of the local spirit "grogue". The apartment was regularly cleaned and there was a reassuring but discrete 24 hour security presence. The owners are absolutely customer focussed - a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommended

    Ayana was on hand to show us round the apartment and gave us the low-down on all the facilities. There was a very comprehensive folder of information available in the apartment throughout our stay and Ayana answered any questions very promptly. Ayana and Chris also included a mobile phone in the flat to contact them if we needed to. Our phone signal was non-existent so we could only communicate with friends and family via WhatsApp when we had Wifi. Most trips/excursions/car hire bookings are done via WhatsApp so bear this in mind - best to check with your mobile provider before you go as it can be very frustrating. The flat was delightful, comfortable, well equipped and squeaky-clean. Fantastic location, a stones throw from the beach and close to restaurants and shops. Fabulous, friendly staff at the apartments, the cleaning staff and security guy were really lovely. Really, really impressed with our stay and would recommend highly. Thank you Ayana and Chris xx

    .. some suggestions Given the tropical climate to have air conditioning in the apartment, add a quality smart television.. mosquitos access the apartment too easily.. Given the lack of an on-site restaurant to provide access to next door hotel orquideas daily breakfast.

    It has a good location near a good beach
