Description from owner

Description

Due to Covid extra cleaning we are having to block off an additional night between bookings, and therefore we may have to add a surcharge for bookings less than 7 nights. (because a 4 night booking costs us 6 nights).

For bookings under 400 euros may also be subject to a contribution towards agent's costs 140 euros per booking, capped at 400 euros maximum, added manually after quote, and requoted back.

2 bed apartment (4 bed spaces, and a cot) 400m from magnificent sandy beach, 3min walk to Burgau village centre - with its ancient Portuguese charm, restaurants and individual shops. Adjacent undeveloped national park with coastal walks. This modern 'end of terrace' top/1st floor, 2 bath, air conditioned apartment has lovely views over Burgau; the country and the sea - with roof terrace, and large terrace-balcony to all bedrooms and living room. Free access to exclusive swimming pool, and lawned gardens overlooking the sea. Quiet position with no passing traffic, ideal for couples and families alike. Meet and greet service. We offer a high standard of service, and furnishings are to a high standard too, good mattress - not soft or spongy. Location is particularly advantageous. We aim to provide a professional service for complete satisfaction and repeat bookings. WIFI included, as well as international TV by internet. (eg BBC/ITV).

Response from the owner Thanks Judith for the review - sounds like you had a great time, albeit I hear the weather was unseasonably windy at times? Maybe that is why we only received 4*? I understand you had everything you needed in the apartment, and most importantly slept well on our new (and very expensive) mattresses - not the standard 'rental' versions! (We can check the washing machine for sure, and replace it if need be, but it does work and washes clothes well). If there are any extra pots and pans needed, we will buy those too. The dishwasher is there for the convenience of guests, as I know some guests prefer to use it rather than hand wash, even if a small load. You did not inform me of your concerns whilst you were there - even though we specifically requested this - because we can normally remedy any issues very quickly, often on the same day. On another website, we have had 15 x 5* continuous reviews over the past year. So I am not sure what more you were really expecting. Nevertheless, it is always useful to have feedback which helps us to provide better facilities for future guests. We try our very best, but have to accept we cannot please everyone, or change the weather!! Our agents work tirelessly too, and take great pride in their work. We are naturally disappointed about the 4* as you can probably tell, and I know our agent will be disappointed too. For more enjoyment and comfort, the 4* rather suggests future guests should choose 5* places elsewhere. Whereas from my own perspective, the location is one of the best in Burgau, with extensive views, and large terraces. Very comfortable, and a lovely restaurant and free pool included. Everything was freshly decorated this year too, and spotlessly clean. Despite the 4 * thank you for the very nice *5*' description of your experience, and it is good to know you enjoyed.

“Excellent apartment”

Reviewed 1 May 2019

We really enjoyed our stay . The apartment is very well equipped, clean and comfortable. The large balcony has sun from first thing until about 3.00PM, it faces South East with a panoramic view of part sea then across the town to the hills. Upstairs is a very large private sun terrace with sun all day. Nice touches are the extensive welcome pack, quality soaps and shampoo in bathrooms. The showers are powerful with plenty of hot water. The provision of 2 bikes, plus most things needed for the seaside holiday add to the experience. The village, which has retained a lot of its character despite holiday home development, is about 5 mins ( 6 mins down to the beach). There are some great cliff top walks.

Response from the owner Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Domusiberica. I am glad all our efforts to present the apartment well were appreciated and that you were pleased with your choice of accommodation. Being right at the end, with no one above, the scope for noisy neighbours is less than most other apartments. However, it isn't something we have recognised ourselves as being an issue, but maybe you were unlucky with some nearby visitors? (Generally, these apartments attract more sophisticated guests, who appreciate quiet and relaxation). From our invoices it looks like there was a problem with a door handle or door, but as you suggest it appears to have been fixed with minimal delay. Having just visited in glorious sunshine - November - it never fails to impress how lucky we are to have this apartment - and we are very pleased to share with others. You would always be very welcome another time! Thanks again for your booking....

“Burgau stay”

Reviewed 12 Aug 2017

An excellent apartment within easy reach of the lovely small town of Burgau. The property had all we needed for a comfortable stay, including extras like welcome pack, toiletries and beach accessories. Use of the Burgau club pool was a huge bonus, as an alternative to the lovely beach. This was our first time in the Algarve, and we were pleasantly surprised by how unspoilt this area is. Elizabeth was really helpful upon booking, with detailed instructions to make our stay go smoothly.

Response from the owner Thank you very much for taking the time to submit a review, and very pleased to hear your first trip to the Algarve went well, and the accommodation was well enjoyed. Yes, this area of Portugal is quite different to the more touristic areas nearer to the airport. Still retains original charm and character, and perfect for relaxation. Thanks again for your booking - always welcome another time!

Response from the owner Many thanks for taking the time to submit a review, and delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay. Absolutely most welcome another time too! Thanks for mentioning the parasols. There is a parasol base, and we are suggesting that guests buy a sun umbrella for about 15 euros locally, as in practice they only last 3-4 weeks. Reason being is that whilst the weather may seem tranquil, the area is prone to sudden gusts of wind, especially around showers, and sometimes at night. However, we perhaps need a more permanent shaded area for the height of Summer, and will see what can be done. The side terrace has sun in the morning, whilst the roof terrace has more sun in the afternoon, so that most times of the year there is some shading available. There is a large sandy beach 3 miles west of Burgau, and some surfing beaches about 25 miles away (West facing). Burgau certainly has a more homely feel than say Luz, making it ideal for relaxation. Thanks again for your kind review!

Response from the owner What a lovely review, thank you! Great that you enjoyed your stay too. The views are hard to beat for sure! With this apartment, our agent likes to welcome guests on arrival, and 'show off' the apartment, but including how to work TV, internet etc,b provide local info and answer questions. They take great pride in their services but understandably it's a long day if waiting up past 10pm , midnight, so there is a modest charge to cover overtime costs. We nevertheless make every effort to provide an excellent service to help guests settle in quick, and enjoy their stay! Thanks again, and always welcome another time too.
