This was the best apartments we have ever stayed in abroad. Albufeira, our 2nd visit in a row is just the greatest place we have ever been on holiday! The Portuguese people are so very friendly! I would not hesitate to recommend the Orada apartments to anyone!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope to go back next year!!!!!!!!!!!!! more

Myself and my partner stayed in the Orada apartments for a week in July. They were the nicest apartments i have ever stayed in. We had a one bedroom apartment which was on the first floor. There was a full kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, dining area/sitting room area combined which was the largest i've ever seen in any holiday apartments. The... more

We stayed at the Orada complex on Albuferia Marina from 26th June until 10th July 2008. We booked online with Travel Republic as unless you are Irish no English package Tour Operators go there (we have never seen or heard so many Irish folk in one place, I think maybe the Irish kids break up earlier). The Orada apartments could... more

After having read all the previous reviews, we were actually slightly disappointed with the Orada, although it is still an excellent complex and we'd still recommend it to others, although we'd probably recommend that others got a privately owned apartment directly from the owners rather than going through a tour operator!

Only found out we were going to these apartments a week before as originally had booked the Quinta da Barracuda apartments but they were apparently not ready! The Orada apartment we had was fantastic, overlooking the pool area. Apartments furnished with everything you could need and very spacious. Complex lovely and well cared for. We were very disappointed with the... more

Takes about 15 minutes to walk to the Old Town over what is actually a nice walk, we did this for the first few days but then started staying arounf the resort more and more. There are a fair... more

Just returned from a golf weekend on the Algarve and stayed at these apartments, set around the Marina. They are very clean and modern, well set out. The pool and lazy river are great. There is development in the area, though the loudest noise we heard was probably the air con! So not a worry. It is a good 15... more

Wonderful apartments. Stayed in block E overlooking the pool, each apartment has both a front (main entrance)and back door (patio doors), so you can enjoy the sun morning and evening without leaving your apartment if you like. The apartment has a kitchen with Bosch fridge / freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. A coffee maker but no kettle. An ironing board... more

5 of us stayed in these apartments for a week. 2 adults, 2 children and a toddler. Marina development gorgeous. Great size of apartment, we stayed in a two bedroom and were floating about in it. Resort has courtesy bus to old town, supermarket, or to the lovely beach Praia da rafael. Taxi to or from old town only 4... more
