This was our tenth visit to Armona and we love the island. We were disappointed with the welcome we received from the person appointed to show us to the house. Our polite enquiries regarding the gas stove and the working of the television were met with incredulity that we could not instantly master their workings. The house needed some work eg the kitchen tap was unstable, only three out of the four gas rings were usable and the roof terrace lights did not work so we could not use it at night.

Lovely and clean, well equipped, gave our family ranging from 9 years old to mid 70s a well deserved break.

A beautiful setting for this lovely house. Very convenient for the limited number of shops, restaurants and the beach, with a roof terrace for dawdling over breakfast and watching the sunset

With 3 disabled oldies, we needed a property close to the beach, shops and restaurants. The house has it all as well as 2 bathrooms and 2 very user friendly showers. It’s a short walk to the sea which is perfect for all. As avid bird watchers, we were thrilled to see loads from the house and the upstairs balcony.

The location is great - a few steps from Armona-Ria beach, in a quiet place and not far from cafes and mini markets. Fantastic view from the terrace. The house is spacious, well decorated and the bathrooms are very good. It has everything needed for cooking. The cleanliness of the exterior and terrace needs to be improved and one of the mattresses in the first double bedroom needs to be changed as the springs can be felt.

All what is written in other reviews is true. The location of the house is really great. Close to the Ria beach. Atmosphere on the island is fantastic. The house is cosy and fully equipped.
What gave us mixed feelings was that the inventory left much to be desired in many places. We offered to indicate what was wrong, but there was not much interest in this. Most dangerous thing we had was a glued-on wing of a ceiling fan that came down. Fortunately, the fan was not running. I don't want to think what would have happened if the fan had been running at full speed. The washing machine was unusable and no alternative offered. Showering with occasional hot water. Outside bench looks fantastic on the photos, but unfortunately now so dirty that you don't dare sit on it. 2 outside chairs and 1 inside chair that you can sink through at any moment and unfortunately this was not all. We tried to be as little as possible bothered by the defects and so we still had a fantastic time at Armona. Thank you very much for staying at your house.

The house is nice and spacious, 100m from the river beach and 15mins walk from the sea beach. Although we had a few issues with the utilities, they were always reaolved quickly by the host.

I have stayed on Armona a few times over last 7-8 years and this is my favourite house. Location from ferry great, as not too far to walk with suitacses/ bags etc but very private. Roof terrace a lovely bonus.

August on Armona
Great few days in Trish’s home. Beds were very comfortable and the ceiling fans helped in August. Location of the house is great with easy access to the beach and to the restaurants and shops. Kitchen quite functional and basic so not ideal If you want to cook, but bbq was perfect!

Armona
The property in question on Armona is the perfect definition of a beach house. The island is a gem, cut off from the mainland , with all it's traffic, hustle and bustle that we expect of the Algarve. Long walks along almost deserted beaches, and friendly local restaurants, make this the perfect place to enjoy the Portuguese October sunshine. Summer will be busier of course, but the closeness of the beaches and the absence of traffic would make this a great place for families.

We had a wonderful holiday at this property. The Island is a true gem and the house is a perfect place to explore it.Trisha's beach house is really lovely and in a perfect location on the island, really just steps from the beach and also very close to the ferry, shops and cafés. The house itself is very clean and well appointed. We really enjoyed our stay there and hope to book to go back next year!!

Calm & Relaxing
We stayed for 10 wonderful days. The property met all of expectations & would even say it went beyond them. We had a cup of tea on the beach, then breakfast on the roof terrace every day
They island is beautiful, but became busy at weekends. We tried all the restaurants, but A4 roof top was our favourite.
Thank you for sharing your property

What a beautiful beach house, has everything you can think of for your stay and very comfortable
This house is perfect, right on the beach and the view from roof terrace is stunning. Watching the tide come and go in the morning with your coffee and in the evening it's perfect for watching the sun set with a glass of Portuguese Rose

Our stay at The Beach House Armona
We had a great holiday which was on the beautiful island of Armona. The Beach house was a little disappointing on arrival as we had the impression that it would be front line to the beach. It certainly had a sea view from the lounge patio doors and access to the beach from there. The bonus was the roof terrace which was a great advantage as suitable for sunbathing etc. The property was adequate but a few items not working but our visit at the end of season could explain this. Some beds if used by adults were not comfortable and the general condition could be improved. The lady looking after the property was superb and very helpful. Th owners were very accommodating also..

The house is ideally located next to the bay. It was clean and well equipped
We had a fantastic time in a lovely house on a beautiful island. We met some lovely people but mostly had the most relaxing holiday. Due to the tide the stunning views over the bay were constantly changing and the sunsets were outstanding. We found the quality of food in the restaurants excellent but we also enjoyed a few nights in with the barbeque. We have already booked a return visit which says it all

A LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN
The house is light and airy with fantastic views from the roof terrace. We spent a lot of time beach combing and making friends at the Armona 4 where they serve lovely meals and cold drinks. The people are very friendly. The lagoon is not to be missed. A lovely peaceful place to stay.
5.0
The house was very clean when we arrived, and the location is perfect.
The island is beautiful with lots of little secret hideaways to discover. We came with our children, who spent most of the time in the lagoon chasing the fish and crabs. The beaches are spotlessly clean and the bars and shops relative cheap.
The house, in particular the roof terrace, is superb. Getting up early to watch the sunrise with a cup of tea and a book was probably the best part of my holiday.
Communication leading up to, and during, our stay with the owners has been very positive and swift.
This wasn't the first time I've stayed in this house, and it absolutely won't be the last time either!

PERFECT location of this well equipped house - wonderful vacation
Booking went great, good communication with the nice owners Trisha and Mike. The island is just wonderful for a laid back vacation. Delicious food (fish & seafood) everywhere, convenient and friendly day to day shopping on the island itself. Fantastic beaches, awesome swimming and running along the deserted beach.
Thanks for hiring out this great house!

Very relaxing holiday
Lovely house in a great location on Armona. This was our 2nd time in this house. Romina is very welcoming and house is clean. Excellent communication with Trish and Mike when we needed too.
The only thing I would change is to have some cleaning products at the house so we could properly clean up during our stay and when we left.

Fabulous way to experience Armona
Armona really is a magical place and this beach house is the perfect way to experience it.The location is fantastic as you are close enough to everything but far enough away for peace and quiet. The house was very clean and well looked after with lots of nice touches - the owners clearly care for the place. The outdoor shower was very useful (especially for our 2 kids) and the spacious indoor shower area was great. The bedroom with the double bed was quite small but the other 2 bedrooms were fine. We ate pretty much all our meals outside and the the BBQ was perfect for cooking the fresh fish you can buy just down the path every day. The rooftop terrace was wonderful especially in the evenings.The WiFi worked well (fast enough for streaming Netflix cartoons) but you really wont want to be spending much time online. Local support from Romina was also excellent. We had a fabulous time and cant wait to go back.

Disappointing stay at an overpriced house
On arrival at 11pm the beds were unmade and deficient of linen, the hospitality was poor, 1 dirty cloth, 1 dirty tea towel and 1 small towel per person. The sink was leaking and there was a gas leak under the hob. The house was not clean and the shower had sand left in it from the previous tenant. With the four of us that were staying here we had only 1 fork, 1 spoon, 1 plate and one, 1 blunt knife, each. Needless to say we will not be returning to stay at this house again.
