Very spacious 2 bed apartment. 5 min walk to shops/restaurants. Staff very helpful with welcome drink on check in. Olhão is a beautiful, unspoilt gem of the Algarve. A visit to Ilha Deserta & Estaminé restaurant is a must.

Me and my family stayed for 3 nights ar Real Marine Residence. The two bedroom flat was excellent. We had a everting what we need for our stay. The only things that we could not take advantage was the roof top swiming pool due to the weather. The staff were very kind and helpfull. We paid for breakfast for duration of our stay and we was given one day free breakfast. We really enjoy our stay and will recomended this hotel to our freinds

Great apartment, perfect position near restaurants and shops. The only issue we had was at the check in. We didn’t receive any instructions by email and the address we had was wrong. I asked for help to the Marina Residence Team using the whatsapp chat and I received a reply the following day. We spent one hour going around the main street looking for the residence (Google unfortunately confirmed the wrong address we had, and we didn’t know what to do!) We were just lucky to pop in and ask information at the Marina Hotel , and this was the place where we should have done the check in. Nobody told us. The staff of the hotel was always nice and helpful . The flat was great. You can be unlucky and find very noisy neighbours (this happened only the last night, a group of tourists next to us decided to party on the balcony until 4am) ; there isn’t a front desk, so you need to deal with it on your own. Olaho is very nice and close to wonderful beaches (Armona). Be careful to walk around the small hidden street of the village especially during the evening, because we had a couple of unpleasant situations when we refused to give money to some guys begging on the street, they started shouting at us and the second time a person tried to follow us after we got money at ATM. I suppose there is no place in the world where you can low your guard. Overall, a good experience.

Great stay at lovely central apartments
Great apartments in a central location. Very spacious 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of storage. There were 2 large bathrooms also one off the hallway and one ensuite off the master bedroom. Off the lounge area there was access to the balcony with a table with seating for 6 there was also a table inside with seating for 6 for when it was too hot to sit outside. Both bedrooms and the lounge had air-conditioning which worked really well. There were also shutters on all the windows which kept the light out in the morning and allowed us to sleep in. If anything the kitchen was a little under equipped it could of done with a few more utensils and there were only 3 wine and 3 beer glasses. We only ate in once though so not a problem. The pool are on the roof is nice for a dip but a little too small and shallow for a swim. The kids still loved it though. You can book into the Hotel to use the pool for the day this costs €35 per adult and you get to use the money at the hotel bar for drinks food and snacks. This was a really nice pool with a great view and the food was excellent also so well worth it. Checkin was delt with at the hotel reception which is not really made clear anywhere. All in all a great base for the week in Olaho which is a lovely traditional Algarve town with plenty of great restaurants and island beaches to explore.

The apartment does not provide any housing services. Towels are old and fir any extra towel you have to pay, no tissue paper as well as no coffee or tea and simple things that you can use the kitchen. For us was useless to have full kitchen and we weren’t aware that those essential stuff would nit be provided. This wasn’t the first time we rented an apartment for vacation. Front desk staff are not responding to the call and the text messages. Poor experience overall!
