We had an absolutely wonderful experience thanks to Sandy Blue. From the moment we booked, their team went above and beyond to make sure everything was seamless. The villa we chose was beautiful, spotless, and driving in through the gates was even better than the photos.
What really stood out was their attention to detail — thoughtful touches, like a welcome bag of local produce, quick communication when we had trouble with the alarm,
Due to their professionalism and warm service, our trip was completely stress-free and truly enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily book with them again.

apartment cherry blossom is great
apartment cherry blossom is great. It’s in a fantastic location just a few minutes’ walk from a supermarket and a short, pleasant stroll to the Praca or beach. The apartment itself is well-maintained, comfortable and spacious, with everything you need right there. The WiFi was fantastic and the terrace offered sun from mid-morning until the end of the day. The communal pool was well-kept and surprisingly quiet, often just us when we visited. The sunbeds were comfy and there was a great shallow section for kids. We absolutely loved the apartment and would definitely return. However, it’s not ideal for those with mobility issues due to the many stairs.

We recently enjoyed a 10 day family stay at an Algarve Olhos d’Agua villa rented through Sandy Blue. It was a pleasure dealing with the Sandy Blue team - professional and responsive, their collective support before and during our stay contributed to the quality of the experience. In response to the one problem that arose - a minor plumbing issue - they immediately arranged for a technician to resolve it, despite this being over the Easter weekend. The villa was everything it had been advertised to be - the guests were all delighted.

Great Job !!!!!!
This company, SandyBlue, is truly top-notch. We’ve rented in the Algarve with other companies before, but none even come close to the exceptional service we experienced with SandyBlue. I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical at first, but once we started communicating, everything became smooth, clear, and effortless.
Their website is extremely user-friendly, with all the information you need easily accessible and well-organized. Thanks to their professionalism and attention to detail, we enjoyed an incredible 7-day vacation — one we will remember fondly.
We’re already hoping to repeat the experience in 2026!
