We stayed at The Penthouse in early March with our 2 teenage daughters and had a wonderful holiday. The Penthouse is light, spacious and beautifully decorated. There are two large terraces with views over Loule and towards the coast and in the summer they must be fantastic sun traps. There is a bbq which must be nice to use in the summer months. Loule is a pretty town with a picturesque castle, artisan shops around every corner and the red roofed indoor market. We didn't hire a car but we did take the local bus, from the bus station opposite the apartment, into Vilamoura which is well worth a visit. There are plenty places to eat both local and international cuisine at reasonable prices, although The Penthouse kitchen is well equipped and we did use it often, trying to copy the local tomato and onion salad. We would definitely like to return to The Penthouse again, maybe in the summer to take full advantage of the terraces and bbq!

Management response:

So happy you all had a great time. Loule has a lot to offer and is an excellent base for exploring the Algarve. Yes, summer, you won't be disappointed, bear us in mind. Thank you for being ideal guests. more

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at the Penthouse for 9 days. It is ideally situated with a few minutes walk to all local amenities.
The owners have made sure that there is everything you could possibly need for the perfect holiday right down to beach towels (very handy when you only bring hand luggage).
Although the weather wasn't great when we were there the outside areas have amazing views right over the town and to the sea and in the warmer months there is a great BBQ and so Al Fresco dining would be a must!
We would definitely book the Penthouse again if we returned to the area and it was a pleasure to deal with Carol and also their friends who met us with the keys and made certain that we had everything we needed. The extra touch of a welcome pack with wine and traditional Portuguese bread, olives, cheese and sardine pate was very welcome after a day of travelling.

Management response:

Delighted you had a great holiday at the Penthouse. We aim to make it a "home from home". Thank you for your most positive review. Hope we can accommodate you again in the future. more
