The Algarve / Central Algarve region

The Algarve has great weather nearly all year round and the average temperature is some 8 degrees C higher than that in the UK. The main part of the season is from the end of March to the beginning of October. Though we have had many hot and sunny days outside this period.
The Old Town Albufeira has a great history and is beautiful at night and during the day time, there are many restaurants, bars, shops, street stalls and often has musicians and entertainers performing in the streets.
This beautiful complex is close to many restaurants. There is a supermarket some 150 metres away which is very hany (no more big grocery shopping trips). It has plenty of things you can do within the complex, Swimming, Squash, games room, Sauna etc, but it is far enough away from the "hubbub" for you to enjoy a great relaxing time either on our large balcony, the roof terrace, or by one of the two pools. We often start the day with a cuppa on our balcony, followed by a leisurely stroll to get a full english breakfast just 10 minutes away en route to the beach, which is about 1000 metres away. There are beach bars, showers, sun loungers etc on the beach and when you are feeling a bit more energetic you can get involved with the water sports at the beach.

Albufeira / Montechoro area

Albufeira is quite close to Vilamoura, also great for sports enthusiasts and golfers. It has a beautiful marina with another selection of restaurants and boutiques, numerous bars, discos and casino. Swim with the Dolphins at Zoo Marine!
You should experience no problems with mobile phone reception, particularly on Orange and O2.
Portugal is in the same time zone as the UK so there is no need to change your clocks.

How to get there

Faro airport is accessible from nearly all British airports. Airlines include EasyJet.com, flyMonarch.com, Ryanair.com, Thompsonfly.com, Thomascook, TapPortugal etc.
We had a taxi for 4 in July 2008 from Faro airport to our apartment for about £20 with www.algarve-airport-shuttle-transfer.com. When you are there, you do not need a car. An all day bus and land train pass was 3 euros for the day, but loads of things are within short walking distance of the apartment.
The big name car hire companies are all over the Algarve, plus others less known, handy if you change your mind when you're there..

Guestbook

We had a fantastic holiday in this superb apartment in the beautiful Algarve. Everything we could wish for was in easy reach, with a supermarket, restaurants and shops all a short walk away. The apartment itself is exceptionally clean, well-equipped and tastefully decorated really secure Apartment which is a real peace of mind on holiday! Our children loved the pool, had fun in the games room and even played squash. The beaches are clean, the sea is great for snorkelling and there are lots of caves to explore. If you are feeling adventurous there are some excellent water parks and Zoomarine is well worth a visit. We all had the opportunity to swim with the dolphins, which really was an amazing experience.
Reg and Lesley the owners, were friendly, helpful and provided us with lots of useful information before and during our stay. It was also great that they provided us with a contact in Portugal, incase of emergencies.
All in all we would recommend this holiday accommodation and the Algarve itself and hopefully will return again another year,
Thank You.

Carol & Robert Dymond"Thanks for a top class holiday, relaxing but with plenty of things to do if you want, quite if you want it but close enough to lots of activity too enough. Those beaches and restaurants are out of this world, such friendly people the Portugese. Perfect weather too. We definitely will book again soon please." (Mr & Mrs Driver May 2008)

"Just returned from 2 fabulous weeks - apartment and complex was fantastic, beaches, restaurants too. What a great position your apartment is too. Top place !! We will be definitely be going back." (Mr & Mrs Fairclough 2008)

"A fantastic apartment, great position, better than you said it was even, the best we've holidayed at. I will certainly recomment it to friends" (Mr Clancy 2008)

Both Sharon and myself had a surprisingly relaxing holiday with the kids being kids and as demanding as they are. We can recommend to anyone who has children that they are not going to be disappointed for things to do and places to visit. We spent most days in the morning on the beach, they are superb, clean and tidy, most of the time playing football and playing in the breakers. Being a little more adventurous we made a visit to the ZooMarine to see the Dolphins, although we didn't swim with them, I would say it's a must if you don't go anywhere else on your holiday.
During the evening there are many places within walking distance to find a cozy place to eat, the atmosphere in Albufeira is lively. The late night shopping at the Algarve shopping Mall is good too.
We do have to say what made the holiday complete is the location and the standard of the apartment. We don't think that you could stay in a more secure and well though out building with all the amenities, especially the pool for all of us with a Super market just minutes down the road.
So it remains for us to say a big thanks and hope to go back some day and swim with those dolphins.

"Fantastic! Good room sizes, air con, dishwasher and Sky. Very home from home! Communication and help before and during the holiday was brilliant" (Bec Holdaway Dec 2007)
