About this property

Beautiful Apartment In Marina Village; License No 561/AL

A beautiful, spacious, 3rd floor, one-bedroom apartment located within Marina Village, on the waterfront, in the heart of historic Olhao. This modern, furnished, air-conditioned apartment has a large balcony where you can sit and enjoy the stunning, uninterrupted views of the ocean and Ria Formosa Nature Reserve. There is a pool on the rooftop where you can enjoy a 360-degree view over the town of Olhao, the marina, and across to the sandspit islands of Armona and Culatra with their beautiful white, sandy beaches. These ihlas are easily reached by ferries that run from the quayside, just a short walk away, along the pleasant, paved promenade. A wealth of restaurants, shops and bars can be found along the waterfront and in the winding, cobbled back streets, all within walking distance.

Perfect apartment
We were very happy with this apartment. Comfortable, clean and it had everything you need throughout your holiday( even a shopping trolley and bags for shopping) Wonderful views from the balcony over the saltflats with storks, pink flamingos and other birds. (Binoculars provided for closer look) The pool on the roof also has wonderful views over the surrounding area and plenty of sun beds to sit and relax. We love Olhao with the many bars and restaurants available. We really enjoyed the new Marina Village centre just a short stroll from the apartment. Cocktail bars, restaurants and live entertainment right on the door step! We hope to return to this great apartment soon.

Thoroughly enjoyed it!
Ideal for us: pleasant view of the salt flats, convenient to market, restaurants, and harbour. There's enough kitchen for a bit of cooking at home, Olhão is a short drive from neighbouring towns/attractions. Recommended.

Satisfied customer
Enjoyed Olhao. Apartment large and in good position. Lovely balcony. Short walk to the marina, bars and restaurants. Restaurants are plentiful. Lots of small restaurants dotted around the little streets beyond the marina. 3 supermarkets within walking distance. Shopping trolley provided which is handy. The train is definitely worth using. Remember to use bus pass or proof of age to get discount if eligible. You can also buy tickets on the train. Worth taking a day trip to ayamonte in spain which is a must . Ferry terminal is a very close to the centre so no long trecks. Train to vila real san antonio and a short walk to the ferry for a very short hop across the river. Buy ferry ticket from the booth opposite the ferry. Looking forward to visiting again and would definitely book this apartment again.

About the host

Hosted by Julia Blaylock

Host profile image
We live in North Wales and first holidayed in the Eastern Algarve in 2007. We love it here, with the relaxing pace of life, the friendly people, the beautiful beaches and the all-year-round sun. The flight to Faro is only two and a half hours for us, and then from the airport it's a 15 minute drive to Olhao. If we catch an 8.00 am flight we can be here by lunchtime. When we had the chance to buy this lovely waterfront apartment here, with such a stunning view of the ocean and nature reserve, we couldn’t resist it.

Why they chose this property

We consider this area of the Algarve to be largely unspoilt by tourism. Although Olhao is a tourist destination it retains its charm as it is still very much a traditional Portuguese fishing town. The restaurants here have lovely, fresh food and wine at very reasonable prices, whereas many other holiday destinations have become expensive, especially to eat out. We love taking the ferry to the sandspit islands of Armona or Culatra; it is like stepping back in time, wandering past the pretty beach houses that line the paths to the beautiful white sandy beaches. There are no cars there and the beaches are never crowded, even in high season. The countryside inland is beautiful and we have spent many days exploring the various tiny hilltop villages where time seems to have stood still.

What makes this property unique

All the restaurants, cafe-bars, shops, markets and banks are within a short walk of the apartment, yet at the same time, it is just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the main street in Olhao, so you have the best of both worlds.

You can chill out on the balcony, or in the rooftop pool after a day of sightseeing. The fact that only a few of the apartments in the building have access to this pool is definitely a bonus. The views and sunsets from our balcony are breathtaking; the only downside is having to tear ourselves away from the view when it is time to return home to the UK. After all, there are not many places you get the chance to see pink flamingoes whilst you are eating your breakfast..
