A dreamy and enchanting hideaway, where charm meets the gentle rhythm of the waves — perfect
Pros: The property is situated directly on the beach, allowing you to enjoy the soothing sound of the waves. It features a rooftop terrace with stunning views and sun loungers for relaxation. The building is beautiful and quirky in style. A spacious kitchen and dining area provide ample room for catering and entertaining. Guests also receive a fantastic welcome pack with fresh fruit, water, gorgeous wine, and soft drinks. Located right on the beachfront and in the town, the property offers convenience and charm. We felt welcomed and looked after throughout our stay by the fabulous team. We loved it! thank you!

Outstanding property with an equally excellent location!
Pros: The location is outstanding, as you will know from the photos - simply run down some stairs, cross a small local access road, and you're on the beach. Wonderful views from both bedrooms and the rooftop terrace, too! Staff was very professional and made sure small additional requests were swiftly taken care of. The whole property was very clean, had excellent amenities, and also took into account that we were travelling with a toddler - baby bed, mini bathtub, vegetable steamer and more were provided without us even asking for it.
Cons: We lost hot water for a couple of hours, though they immediately sent a handyman who was able to temporarily fix the issue. This can happen anywhere - I view their response time is a clear indicator of the high level of professionalism! One small note: Please remind all employees to take off their shoes/wear plastic toppers when entering a property. On the day we lost hot water, two regular staff members first came in to check that we did indeed lose hot water - and with it having rained that day, dragged dirt and mud all throughout the first two floors, which we had to clean up after them. Not grading the property down for this - I believe this will be addressed immediately. :) We'd be delighted to return to Sol e Mar if we ever find our way back to the Algarve coast!

Pros: Die Lage war außergewöhnlich. Man geht aus der Tür und ist direkt am Strand. Die Aussicht aus den Schlafzimmern und der Terrasse ist wirklich wunderschön. Die kleine Straße davor ist nur ganz wenig befahren, sodass es insgesamt sehr ruhig gelegen ist. Zudem war unser Concierge sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Der Service insgesamt war kaum zu überbieten.
Cons: Das Haus ist wirklich toll. Ein bisschen blöd fanden wir, dass jedes Zimmer auf einem eigenen Stockwerk lag. Es gab also ziemlich viele Treppen. Das wussten wir nicht und war mit unserem Kleinkind nicht optimal. Zudem hatten wir ein paar Probleme mit einer miefigen Klimaanlage, die wir gern genutzt hätten, um zu heizen. Es wurde zwar versucht sich drum zu kümmern, aber wirklich behoben wurde es nicht.

Sol e Mar was a little piece of heaven.
Pros: The location was perfect- quiet because it was at the end of a small street, overlooking the beach, ocean, and fishing boats. The hospitality was friendly and professional- Jorge welcomed us and showed us around, and the 3 maids made sure everything was spotless. The townhouse was exactly as presented on the web- as well as lots of wonderful surprises like the welcome basket, well stocked kitchen, robes and slippers and architectural books to peruse while lounging and watching the sea.
Cons: Everything was perfect!
