Room was incredibly spacious, with a beautiful view, and quiet. The internal pool was excellent; we were surprised it was available at this property. Groceries are easily available within walking distance. This property makes me want to visit Portimão again by itself.

We’ve just arrived home after staying here and it was amazing! Everything about it was lovely. The grounds were well maintained and beautiful, the pool was great, the reception area was so beautifully decorated and clean, the location was great you could walk into Praia da Rocha which was around 15 minutes. Our deluxe apartment was spotless, very comfy bed and had everything you needed in the kitchen area. The staff were so friendly, accommodating and helpful throughout. I highly recommend Vista Marina. We cannot wait to return!

Huge apartments, great location 15 mins walk from Praia da rocha, comfy beds and nice pool, as well as plenty of secure, underground parking. Would be great for a long stay or short. Would maybe benefit from a bar by the pool (I'd have used it!) and there's not a lot of amenities around the area (quite residential) but a lovely place to stay overall.

Stunning Location And Property

My second visit to this stunning apartment overlooking the River Arade. Apartments are spacious and clean and situated in a central location for beautiful traditional villages and the more touristy Praia’s. Staff are helpful and polite with very good English. The gardens are immaculate with swing chairs, sun beds and loungers around an amazing pool. Communal areas are relaxed and quiet. There are no negatives about this place and we will be returning.

Super clean, modern building with lovely helpful reception staff. We really liked the large apartment and it's balcony which was easily big enough to do our morning exercise routine, then sit and have coffee whilst watching the cruise ship coming in. 15 min light walk to Praia De Rocha, similar to Portimao but i wouldn't bother!

Amazing Views and Beautiful Apartments and Gardens

There was nothing I could fault with my stay here. Ideal location for both Portimao Centre and Praia da Rocha and within easy walking distance to both. Views across the Rio Arade to Ferragudo are breathtaking. The apartment was spacious, modern and clean. Pool area and gardens were beautiful and plenty of sunbeds and sunbathing areas. Staff were very helpful, polite and well spoken in different languages. Contemporary communal areas throughout and hopefully the bar and restaurant will be opening again soon. I will definitely return here after staying in several locations in the area this has been by far the best property!

Liked the spacious apartment with lovely balcony and lovely views. Staff were very friendly polite and helpful. Disappointed jacuzzi still not working and is still advertised as having one. Disappointed that sun loungers are not on balconies but plenty round pool area but no wee tables next to sun loungers. Miss the restaurant not being opened. Welcome pack would be a nice touch for late at night check ins.
