About this property
5 mins to old town beach, next to swimming pool, 2 bedrooms, sea views, air con
It has always been our dream to have a 2nd family home based in Albufeira’s Old Town and we are so chuffed that we bought this apartment at the end of 2017 from Philipa & Keith. We both love it as does our 3 year old son. We have spent over 10 years visiting and working in the town, so it really is home from home for us.
The apartment is situated in an aparthotel on a hillside with great views of the Old Town, Fisherman's Beach and out over the Atlantic. There is a nice south facing balcony which is ideal for soaking up the sun, relaxing, admiring the view, or eating al fresco.
The apartment is very family friendly as the balcony is on the ground floor not up high, there is no big drop. The balcony is also gated and the wall comes up to around hip height.
The outdoor salt water swimming pool is just out of the balcony gate and down a few steps.
Within the apartment you will find our visitor pack giving you details of great places to eat and visit during your stay.
We also provide a welcome pack enabling you to have a hot or cold drink on arrival and settle in with the essentials before having to rush out to the supermarket.
There is also a TV offering a wide range of English TV channels, over 800 movies and all the football you could ever want, plus we have free Wi-fi.
The Montechoro Strip and world class golf courses are a short cab or Uber ride away.
We can also arrange competitive private airport transfers for you, all vehicles have Wi-fi and air con.
Our main bedroom has a super king sized luxury bed with the brand new mattress supplied by Hilton hotels.
Because we have been travelling with our son, the apartment has a high chair, travel cot, Tommy Tippee perfect prep machine and a bottle brush.
We try to ensure that we look after our guests and cater to their every need.
We hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do, and want to come back time and time again.

About the host

Why they chose this property
I fell in love with Albufeira when staying at a friend's apartment and immediately bought one in the same complex. The apartment is on a hill overlooking the Old Town, Fishermans' Beach and the sea. It has a beautiful view and a large balcony on which to enjoy it. The Old Town and Beach are around 5 minutes' walk away and the Strip with its bars and Karaoke clubs is also a short taxi ride away. This means you can enjoy all that Albufeira has to offer, but are far enough away that you can close out the nightlife and get a good nights sleep! Albufeira has two distinct faces: the heat with the hustle and bustle of summer and the cool quieter winter months. I love them both!
What makes this property unique
My apartment is large and airy with its beautiful views. Guests that have stayed comment on how comfortable and homely it is as well as how spacious. They love relaxing in the sitting room, or sitting on the balcony enjoying the view. It is only a few steps away from the pool and the balcony is large enough to sunbathe with a separate area to sit in the shade and eat alfresco!
The apartment is refreshed and maintained by our English friends who live nearby and are only a quick phone call away. Faro airport is about 30 minutes away and with a flight of around 2 and a half hours from London, it is such an easy journey.
The apartment complex is gated and there is CCTV on both apartment entrances to for your safety.
