    The Privilege Homes staff was fantastic—very kind, responsive, and thoughtful throughout our stay in Olhão. They were always available when we had questions. They are now our gold standard for how we will evaluate other hosts. The apartment was very clean and comfortable - exactly as described. The location was perfect; walkable area and there was also parking available. We had a great experience!

    Beautiful apartment and fantastic experience. Sonia answered all questions during booking process, met us at the apartment, helped with transportation and spent time giving recommendations to ensure a great time in Faro.
    The apartment was perfect for 3 couples, each bedroom has queen bed with bathroom (& shower), lots of common space to relax after a day out, and the balcony is great for sipping wine and people watching. Keep the doors open and enjoy local musicians or closed for quiet time. Great location, marina is across the street, grocery store is a block or two away and dozens of restaurants are walkable. The apartment was clean and well kept, the kitchen had everything that we needed and having air conditioning was great. Would ABSOLUTELY stay here again .

    We stayed in Olhão and thoroughly enjoyed it, the apartment was beautiful and very clean and comfortable. Although it was in a residential block it was only a ten minute walk to the marina. Would definitely stay again.
    Sonia was very helpful when we booked and met us there to give us lots of tips about the area.
    I would recommend privilege homes to anyone.

    Sehr schöne, moderne, geräumige, sehr saubere Wohnung. Gemütlich eingerichtet. Es gefiel uns gut, dass es auf dem Balkon eiben Esstisch und ein kleines Sofa gibt. In der Küche hat uns etwas Arbeitsfläche gefehlt. Vielleicht würde ein kleiner Tisch helfen. Danke für den herzlichen Empfang von Sónia, die viele nützliche Informationen gab.
    Wir würden jederzeit wieder buchen.

    We were very happy with our stay.
    Sonia gave us a very warm welcome and shared a lot of useful local information.
    We were impressed with the internal decor and homely touches.
    It was very clean and comfortable.
    Minor comments were the welcome pack was sparce. As part of the wardrobes were locked (possibly due to storage for the owners) we lacked drawers for clothing, particularly in the second bedroom and had no safe to use.

    We would recommend this property - lovely spacious and light flat, very clean and comfortable. Good view from the balcony and flat has everything that is needed including the use of bikes which was much appreciated by our son. The flat is close to the main road so easy to travel along the Algarve coast. We were met by our host who went out of her way to ensure we had access to the pool and gave us some excellent tips.

    The apartment was fabulous and so much better than the photos. The location is perfect close to all the restaurants but absolutely silent in the apartment at night which was so good as I am a very light sleeper. Sonia who met us at the apartment gave us so mane recommendations and was so helpful. Olhao is a gorgeous place and the three islands accessible by ferry are worth the trip, silver sands and crystal clear sea. I travelled with my three grown up children, aged 20,23 and 26 and they all loved it. Plenty going on at night with a great atmosphere but also felt very safe. I am planning to return next year!

    The location of the apartment is great. It is very suitable for 4 adults.
    Air conditioning was perfectly adjustable, kitchen equipment complete, large balcony with a great side view of the Ria Formosa from the 4th floor.
    A generous handover more than 3 hours before the official check-in, the possibility to stay in the apartment until early afternoon on the day of departure (38°Cel)
    The most important issue:
    We appreciate the great support team. Big thanks to Filomena and Sonia.

    Heel vriendelijke ontvangst door Filomena die snel en efficiënt reageerde als we een probleem hadden. Zeer mooi appartement, netjes onderhouden. Heel praktische schuifpanelen op het balkon om de felle voormiddagzon af te schermen.
    Ruim zonneterras op het dak.
    Minpunt:
    Slechts 5 plastic zonnebedden rond het zwembad (waarvan 1 onbruikbaar/beschadigd) voor meerdere appartementen.
    Enkele opkrullende vloerplanken aan het zwembad.

    But since the Bar „Amsterdam „ is there , it’s very loud and noisy during the nights with too many drunk and yelling people

The apartment in Olhao is like a home from homes .The area is quiet & we also felt safe walking back to the property at night .Having the roof top pool is a bonus.Thanks again to Sonia & Privilage Homes.

    We truly enjoyed our stay in our beautiful home away from home! The apartment was everything that we could have asked for. The apartment was beautifully decorated,bright and airy. I was impressed that the kitchen contained everything that I would need to prepare meals. I can truly say I have nothing negative to say about our apartment it was a pleasure to stay at this property….hopefully it will be available again when we plan our next trip back to Olhao.

    I found the apartment was just bare basics in its decor and cooking and other amenities. My opinion was that whoever owned the apartment had bought it for the sole purpose of renting it out to tourists like us, and furnished it with just the bare minimum.
    Another thing that I had noticed was that the outside, the exterior surroundings there was so much mess, garbage and dog poop around. I hadn’t noticed any thing like this last year.
    The things that impressed me most were the management and staff with Privilege homes, they went above and beyond the call of duty, with quick and responsive attention to all our concerns and questions.

    Un grand logement, propre et bien équipé, avec deux chambres et deux salles de bains, une grande cuisine et un vaste salon avec salle à manger menant sur une terrasse exposée au sud et donnant sur les jardins de la résidence. Cet appartement est très bien placé, se situant à 10 minutes à pied des restaurants et commerces sur le front de mer, mais aussi très proche des centres commerciaux dans une résidence très calme. Il ne manquait que l'accueil "premium" de Filomena qui nous a formidablement renseigné sur les diverses activités et bonnes adresses à visiter, pour nous assurer un séjour génial en Algarve.
    Merci encore à l'équipe de privilèges home et à bientôt je l'espère
