Troia Residences - Apartamentos Praia

Nice apartment just by the beach. With parking and common pool.

No common bathroom. Pool needs regular cleaning, was dirty.

Location to beach

We were the only people there

The apartments are very spacious and well appointed eve the ones that face the parking lot are nice but of course the sea view ones are best. The walkway is very long out to the water so don’t expect to be on the beach right away. I experienced a water leak in my first unit (there was a large storm and heavy rainfall in the previous couple of days) the staff was very good about moving me and I enjoyed the room, view and the quiet so much I stayed an additional couple of days. There is not much open in off season (which I expected) 1 or 2 restaurants, the grocery and the ferry.

It’s a bit tough to find at first, but once you figure out the loop road and your turn it is very easy to get around. The grocery was quite expensive and I was glad I had read another review about that so I took most of my grocery and such with me and only went there for the odd thing here and there. It would be nice to get some basics for the units, no dishwasher or washer soap and the grocery only had large and very expensive options. No basics like sugar, coffee, tea, etc.

Great location, good size apartment

Not worth the money, the pool was not maintained properly, the accesses with the card were not working, not enough shadows. The apartment was big but the cleaning was not great. The kitchen utensils were burnt/old. Bathroom was in need of maintenance, everything was rusty and not well maintained. So much dust .. would expect better cleaning for the price charged. We love Troia and would love to come back soon but not for the same facilities for sure.
