Oasis Beach Apartments

"We booked a one week stay through Easyjet, flying from Southend. Whilst at the airport Easyjet contacted us to say that there would not be anyone on reception and they would email instructions, which they did. We arrived at 2am and there was someone there to meet us, find our key and show us to the room. A very pleasant surprise. The apartment was good, clean and functional. The lady on reception was lovely and couldn't do enough to help us. The pool area was clean and tidy. There as a bar area but that was never open during our stay. Positives Well equipped Clean Very well located Quiet Friendly Great resort A couple of niggles/negatives: No bedside table one side of the bed. An absolute must for us, but we made do with a chair. The head on the shower was split. The first shower we had, soaked the room and I mean soaked. The state of the bottom of the door we weren't the first to do this as the wood was splitting. We learnt to just not have the water turned on as much - the water pressure was fierce. Would we stay again - definitely."

Baia da Luz Resort

"Beautiful resort/apartment, would have been a 5 stars review ruined by the ridiculous, humiliating "security deposit" policies. Details: stayed there for 5 days in Sep, at check in paid for the apartment with a credit card without any problem. Then they tried "to put a hold for 250 euros", but the way they do it is rejected by American-issued credit/debit cards (I tried 3 by major US issuers). I offered them to actually charge my card and then debit it later, then told them they actually have my card in their system since I booked directly and paid the deposit. They flatly refused everything and forced me to run to the ATM. To get our money back I had to go to reception multiple times to schedule a "walk through by a maintenance supervisor". BTW we are a couple in their 60s, highly unlikely to travel the world trashing hotel rooms..."
