“Beautiful apartment and amazing resort”

Reviewed 22 Apr 2017

My parents spent a week at this beautiful apartment on Dunas Beach Resort. The location was perfect, ground floor was great for less mobile visitors and there was a bar and swimming pool just outside the door. The apartment had everything they needed for self catering and we took some trips into Santa Maria for dinner and shopping. The resort itself has everything from bars, restaurants, entertainment and a beautiful beach. and the staff were great. Communication from the owner, before and during the stay was great and we would definitely return.
