Villa Marisol (villa)

Home description

The villa is one of 22 in a small gated community. There is a spacious swimming pool on the site, which proved very popular with our grandchildren, and also a tennis court . Even though we are quite close to the popular Strip, we are not affected by noise or any kind of disturbance, which is quite helpful when putting children to bed etc. We found that we could experience all the night life we liked, and then retreated to the comfort and peace and tranquility of our Villa, when it suited us.

The vila itself has 3 comfortable bedrooms. The master bedroom is en suite, and has its own balcony with sea view. The 2nd bedroom can be made up as either single beds or double bed, and has a sea view. The 3rd bedroom has bunk beds, and also a travel cot if necessary. All 3 bedrooms are upstairs. There is also a large family bathroom upstairs. Downstairs, on the ground floor, there is a fully equipped kitchen. There is also a shower and wc on the ground floor, and a laundry room.
The lounge / dining area is quite large and comfortable, and one of the sofas converts into a double sofa bed. The back garden has a large patio area and also a lawn. There is a barbecue, and outdoor dining area, and also 3 sun loungers. We also have 4 loungers for use either in the garden, or at the pool, its up to you!! So, should you want a relaxing, no-stress holiday, or wish to sample many of the attractions the area has to offer, it's all here for you. It is ideal for family groups, as it is within 5 minutes walk from the beach, and bars, restaurants are also close by.

The Algarve / Central Algarve region

The Algarve - where the sun shines for 300 days in the year, runs along the south coast of Portugal, from the West coast to the border with Spain. The climate is excellent, temperatures during the high season are generally in the high 20's - early 30's.

Albufeira is in The Central Algarve, with easy access to the airport at Faro, and also easy access to Spain (less than an hours drive). The climate is excellent; temperatures during the high season are generally in the high 20's - 30's. A breeze comes in from the Atlantic, it keeps the air fresh and comfortable.

The Algarve is also very popular with golfers, and luckily enough, our Villa is not far from some of the best courses. We are approximately a 15 minute taxi ride from Vila Moura, with 5 very good courses, and we are also quite close to the well known Pine Cliffs Resort and Golf to mention but a few.

You could take a trip to the many attractions, Zoomarine for example, local tour operators run buses regularly, or you could take a taxi there, its about 20 minutes away from the villa, in Lagoa. We went to Slide 'n Splash last year with our daughter and her family, and had a fabulous day. A word of advice however, if you do go under your own steam, buy your tickets before you go there, as it cost us 2.50 Euros more each to buy the tickets at the door.

Albufeira / Areias Sao Joao area

The complex is situated in a lovely area in Albufeira, and has been described as "a hidden gem in the heart of Albufeira". It is literally a 5 minute walk from the villa to the beach, a lovely flat beach and great fun to be had in the sea, with great waves and swimming. The famous Albufeira gypsy market is held on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month. Loads of local colour, and the odd bargain thrown in!!

You can also walk along the beach to the Old Town of Albufeira, which should take less than half an hour, stroll around the Old Town, have lunch or a coffee or whatever, and then walk back along the beach, or if you feel like pampering yourself, get a taxi.

From the villa, a short walk (less than 10 minutes) brings you to the popular Montechoro Strip, with all manner of bars , restaurants, cafes, shops and entertainment. Just a walk along the Strip itself is an entertainment!

How to get there

The nearest airport is Faro International Airport, and it takes approximately 35 minutes by taxi to get to the Villa. We can arrange for transfers for you, which will bring you directly from the airport to the villa.

The complex is situated close to the Tres Palmeira s roundabout, which is quite well known and easy to get to.
