The beautiful Ria Formosa.: The Ria Formosa in the Algarve is a beautiful labyrinth of lagoons separated from the sea by a coastal dune system which is broken up by various natural inlets. It is one of the most important nature reserves in the network of wetlands that links Europe and sub-Saharan Africa. The Ria has an enormous variety of natural habitats that provide refuge, feeding and breeding areas for an infinite number of flora and fauna and is a haven for birds.

The beaches of the isles of Faro, Barreta, Culatra, Armona and Tavira form a natural barrier to the Ocean. Behind are the dunes, sometimes just a narrow strip and sometimes wider and then come the labyrinth of lagoons and small sand islands and channels. At low tide other salty habitats are uncovered forming marches and salt marshes.

A wintering ground for many migratory birds. The Estuary has an enormous variety of natural habitats and biotopes that provide refuge, feeding or breeding areas for an infinite number of organisms.

Perfect house, large rooms, comfy beds and «5-stars Hotel standard» bathrooms.
Clean, nice sized Pool, adequate sundeck chairs. A 5 min stroll to «endless» white sand beach. The only «downer» was the lack of decent restaurants within walking distance from the Property. But a well equipped kitchen and a grill facility enabled first class cooking at «home».

Great house and location
Wonderful house, property, and location. Great walking to Café, restaurant, beach, supermarket all within minutes. The house did not appear to have been cleaned when we arrived but the property manager immediately sent the cleaners and it was quickly cleaned. The hot water was working fine at first, using the on-demand heater, but towards the end of our 10 day stay it quit working and the property manager again sent someone immediately. The hot water was never quite right again though for our final few days. But again, wonderful house, property, and location, would recommend and would stay again. Thanks!

Fantastic House, super clean!
The house was very clean when we arrived, felt superb immediately. Un fortunately the weather was a bit cloudy, but not a great deal. All the things you need are available once you arrive. The beach is in walking distance and calm (maybe because is was a bit cold). We enjoyed every minute of our stay! Communication with Andrew was spot on and prompt! Maybe the bathroom on the ground floor could get an upgrade, but it was still functional! We will return, that's for sure!

Excelente casa e localização
Foi muito boa. No entanto encontrei baratas mortas à chegada e a hora de check out é muito cedo (10h), pelo menos 13h para ainda se aproveitar a manhã de praia. Para o preço, deveria proporcionar papel higiénico e pastilhas para a máquina da loiça, acho básico (apenas tinha 2 pastilhas e meia dúzia de rolos de papel higiénico, claramente insuficiente para os dias todos e número de hóspedes. De resto recomendo!

Quase tudo perfeito, boa casa, boas areas, equipada com tudo, apenas algumas falhas menores: wcs sem protecção nos ralos, 2 cadeiras de exterior em mau estado, estendal em mau estado. E poderiam fornecer sacos do lixo e papel higiénico. Apenas 1 unidade de cada deixados. Nao expectavel para a qualidade e preço da casa. Ainda assim recomendo vivamente.

As Advertised
This is a great place to stay. Common area is large and allows many people to be together at once. Pool and backyard were great with enough seating for our entire group. We walked to the beach daily (5 minute walk) and also walked to Monte Gordo either along the beach or through the National Forest. It was a 15 minute walk to town. We were a group of 5 adults and one child Ranging in age from 9 to 85. The bedroom on the main floor was perfect for those with issues climbing stairs. The three upstairs bedrooms were all a good size. We recommend and hope to return again.
