Home description
Five minutes walk from the 'Worms' roundabout, but away from the busy road noise, the apartment is situated at the top of a small hill in a residential area, within a short distance from shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. It is ten minutes walk from the Strip and 20 minutes walk from the Old Town and beaches.
Being on the top (3rd) floor, there is a panoramic view of the town and the sea, from the private south facing roof-top, sun-trap terrace, where lazy days are plentiful.
Through sliding doors, from the lounge/ diner there is a further covered balcony with sea view, table and chairs and there is a communal swimming pool downstairs for a cooling dip.

The Algarve / Central Algarve region
The Moors called their al-Gharb the Sunset Land. Blessed with a mild winter climate and sunny disposition, Portugal's playground province remains one of the most popular year round holiday destinations in Southern Europe. Lively coastal resorts spill over ribbons of golden sands in sharp contrast to the quiet villages of the hinterland where history and tradition go hand in hand.
Add to this the friendly Portuguese people, many who speak fluent English, delectable cuisine, wine and port and you have the recipe for a wonderful holiday destination.
Albufeira / Areias Sao Joao area
Albufeira is the Algarve's largest holiday resort, boasting some of the most effervescent night life in Portugal, with generous sandy beaches flanked by bustling esplanades, brimming with cafes, bars and restaurants.
The Old Town remains a relaxing, unusually pretty village with narrow, twisting lanes of white washed houses criss-crossing behind the high cliffs which overlook a beautiful spread of beaches. Whilst the lively Strip is gregarious with numerous bars, restaurants and souvenir shops open until late.
Besides the miles of sandy beaches, Albufeira has a funky Marina which is a 10 minute drive from the apartment and the cool inland mountains provide walking, wildlife, flora and fauna opportunities only 20 minutes drive away.
The Balaia and Pine Cliffs golf courses are nearby with Salgados a 15 minute drive to the West of Albufeira and the six world class golf courses of Vilamoura a 30 minute drive to the East.
Daily coach trips to places as far as Lisbon, Seville, Evora, Fatima and Gibraltar or as near as Faro, Portimao, Lagos, Silves and Monchique can easily be picked up from stops near to the apartment.
So whether you want a lively holiday or a quiet peaceful time, Albufeira provides some of the best of both and our apartment is ideally located and presented for Lazy Days!
