Gorgeous spot. Stunning views of the beach from our decks. Apartment had lots of character and plenty of room for our family of 4. Full kitchen and laundry was nice. Great pool. Short walk to many great restaurants and the beach. Our hosts were so welcoming and helpful.

It was relaxed and location was great
Had a pool. The owner Miguel was lovely and helpful
Free parking
I think cleaning could be done more often and the beds were very uncomfortable
No toiletries at all and there could have been a bottle of water in the fridge

Very Good
The views of the beach and village were really lovely. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the evenings, watching the sun set over the bay. At night, we left the bedroom window open so we could fall asleep to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, which was very relaxing.
The apartment is ideally located, just a short walk from the centre of the village, with a great selection of restaurants, a few cosy bars, and easy access to the beach. There were also several well-stocked supermarkets nearby. A scenic cliff walk begins almost right outside the apartment door.
The apartment itself was comfortable, clean, and well equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was spotless. Overall, it was a wonderful place to stay and a perfect base for exploring the area.
We will return and that says it all really.
The couch in the main room had a slightly stale smell—I'm not sure what it was, perhaps just age-related. It didn't bother me much (I just didn't sit on it!), and my husband didn't notice the smell. Other than that, we had no complaints.
As the apartment is so close to the village centre, the sounds of bar life—music and people chatting—would occasionally drift up in the evenings. However, it all felt very relaxed, cheerful, and part of the atmosphere rather than a nuisance. Overall, Burgau is incredibly laid-back, family-friendly, and welcoming. We didn't witness any bad behaviour or rowdy crowds during our stay.

Lovely apartment with great views across the beach. Close to good restaurants (walking distance). Burgau is a lovely quaint village, well worth a visit! Miguel, the host, was very friendly and welcoming. Apartment was very clean and the bed was super comfy,beach easy to walk to.

The apartment is just as shown in the pictures - as is the view! While a little outdated in the decor, the view and terrace make up for that. The apartment was clean, comfortable and in a nice location above the beach giving a great view. The trail to Luz is right there too! I would recommend the Apartamentos Os Descobrimentos and would stay there again.
It was all good.

Amazing view of the ocean and short walk down the hill to the expansive beach. The owner is so welcoming , hospitable and eager to help you have the best vacation possible! The apt is well appointed, beautifully furnished and has a comfy king sized bed.
