What our customers say
Firstly the Capri is basic accommodation. The complex is officially 1 Key. Usual self catering type accommodation. Bedroom, bathroom, shower, kitchenette ( hob with two rings is about it ) living/dining room. You can hire kitchen equipment such as toasters, microwaves, kettles etc from reception. Take a travel kettle with you.
Bed linen and towels are clean. The apartments are clean but a little worn at the edges. But if all you want is somewhere to rest your bones at the end of the day; sit on the patio with a drink and watch the sun go down then this is the place. Dont expect 5 star luxury.
The complex has a swimming pool which is ok and lots of sun beds. There is a restaurant and bar by the pool and food is good.
The complex has an on site supermarket which is very well stocked at very reasonable prices.
Capri is about 5 mins walk from Holiday world where there is enough to keep most families occupied (bowling alley and amusement park with rides etc) and about 10 mins to Faro 2 shopping centre where there are loads of shops and restaurants ( very reasonable prices. Taxis are abundant and cheap which will speed you to Playa Del Ingles; Faro. beach etc. The Capri will give you a pass allowing you to use the free bus service to the beach and back (it runs in both directions at hourly intervals throughout the day.
The Capri is close to the market held on Wednesdays and Satudays and if you are feeling really fit the Yumbo centre nr Playa Del Ingles is a 20 min walk away.
So in summary the Capri is a friendly, clean but basic accommodation. You will see ants and other insects and probably the occasional cockroach outside but remember this is a hot climate, not the UK, and expect it, but dont moan about it.
