Parque Monte Verde

I have been to three different places in the Algarve this year, and this was the best price value that we have got (at least in June, when fares are not yet up to the sky). The playground and the swimming pool areas are great, the appartement is fully equipped, the location is unbeatable and really practical if your kids want to go to Zoomarine. Bars, restaurants and supermarkets at your door step but still peaceful and quiet. We also loved there were so many books to pick! :)

Nice apartments in Guia (and a mile from Cliff Richard’s Portuguese villa!) Comfortable beds …. Excellent service (had bathroom shower issue that was fixed within two hours!) …. Peaceful …. Kids play area …. Safe (locked main gates at night with code to get in) …. Fab 24 hour wash room - easy to program wash/dry machines and included free washing powder! A great base to explore the Algarve (need hire car really - I suggest use Zest as they cheap and fab service with zero excess). Recommend having snacks/breakfast at the amazing Apolonia Supermarket (a 3-4. Minute drive away). Super food in their cafe and the grocery shopping much better than nearby Aldi. Highly recommended for families and couples 👍 Our only slight boggle was that they use blankets and not duvets ….. real shame. But bed’s comfortable.

We stayed at Monte Verde for five nights in August 2024, and overall, our experience was very positive. The lady at the reception was exceptionally kind and welcoming, always ready to assist with anything we needed. She even helped us rent a car at a very good price, which made exploring the area much easier. While the location is not directly on the beach, having a car allows you to get around easily. There’s an Aldi supermarket just a few minutes away, and there are also several restaurants in the area. The property offers a laundry service where you just need to load your clothes into the machine, and detergent and fabric softener are automatically provided. The best part is that this service is free of charge. The pool is great for kids, and the area is peaceful in the evenings, allowing for a good night's rest. I would suggest enhancing the children's playground by adding a few more toys. It would be wonderful to see a small soccer goal or a basketball hoop installed. Sometimes, kids want to play in the evening, and having these options would be both useful and enjoyable. Other than that, we have no complaints. A big thank you to the lady at reception—she was very kind and made our stay even more enjoyable

Location is very good if you have a car, nearby beaches for swimming or walking, Albufeira is also few minutes away with various boat tours. There were no noises from bars, street or anything. Full kitchen equipment, new beds, ocean and sunset view from upper floor. We did not use the pool but it looked good also. Shared washing machine service (free). Plenty of private parking space. Apartments were cleaned every 3 days.

After reading some mixed reviews I wasn’t sure what to expect. Property is a little dated but in my opinion was very clean and still looked nice. It is in a slightly isolated area but it means you get a peaceful nights sleep, Places like Old town and marina were less than 10 mins drive, we used Uber everywhere they were fantastic arrived within 3 minutes! and were pretty cheap too works out cheaper if you are in a group! Pool Area was gorgeous and there wasn’t many people about so it was nice. I would definitely come back here again in the future!
