My wife and I are originally from Portugal but we've spent over 40 years living in London, working in hospitality. We recently returned to Portugal to enjoy exploring the beautiful Algarve coastline. The sunshine and great food is also a bonus. We live in the same block and are always on hand to help answer questions.

Everything you’ll need for a relaxing holiday is within walking distance. There's direct access to the beach via some wooden steps. The supermarket is round the corner and there's lots of great restaurants and bars. If you fancy going a bit further afield you can walk to Albufeira old town (20 mins walk) or hop in a cab. There’s also lots of slide parks like Aqua Show (20 mins by car) and children’s attractions like Zoomarine (20 mins by car) – my grandchildren’s favourite place in the world. The appartment is a 40 min car ride from Faro airport. The closest beach has a lovely beach restaurant. Watching the sunset there is on of our favourite things to do.
