Home description
The apartment is furnished to a very high standard to ensure maximum comfort. The open plan design gives a sense of space and the furnishings and furniture make it very relaxing. Enjoy the music, TV or DVDs. The private roof terrace is wonderful for sunbathing. It is also ideal for a bit of 'al fresco' dining or for simply enjoying a glass of wine while taking in the magnificent views. The complex itself, which is just eight to ten minutes' walk from the beach and old Albufeira town, is set in beautifully landscaped gardens. A focal point is the restored Windmill at the swimming pool, alongside the snack bar where a little Jazz music in the background is the perfect accompaniment to a light meal or drink.

The Algarve / Central Algarve region
The Algarve is the southernmost region of Portugal and it's one of Europe's favourite holiday destinations well known for glorious year round sunshine and excellent sandy beaches.
The Algarve is hilly, but traversed with rich valleys. Its higher point is the Mountain range of Monchique.The region is also the home of the Ria Formosa lagoon, a nature reserve of over 170 square kilometres and a stopping place for hundreds of different birds.
The Algarve is a popular tourist destination, primarily because of its clean, warm water beaches, Mediterranean climate, safety and relatively low costs. The length of the south-facing coastline is approximately 155 kilometres.

The historic town is particularly pretty with its narrow cobbled streets lined with whitewashed houses, restaurants and shops. The central square is a good place to sit and watch the world go by.
The area around Albufeira provides opportunities to indulge in all varieties of watersports. In addition, there are superb golf courses, aqua parks, zoo and attractive villages within a short distance of the town.
An additional attraction in the area is the new Marina de Albufeira with its controversial architecture and 474 moorings.
