About this property

Beautiful views, peaceful, idyllic, family or romantic getaway with WiFi

Casa Espiral is a 2 bedroom, sleep 4, spacious airy apartment, that looks out across the surrounding countryside of the St Vincente National park and is set in the fishing village of Burgau. The apartment is one of a private condominium, with a shared heated (June and September) swimming pool. A few minutes walk down cobbled streets, passing cafes and restaurants will take you to the beautiful award winning sandy beach.
Burgau is a hidden gem on the Algarve, with white washed villas and narrow cobbled streets and passageways. Village shops are only a minute's walk away with a variety of bars, cafes and restaurants to suit every taste, traditional and modern. There are no nightclubs.
This is a first floor apartment with a private balcony, and far reaching views across the beautiful scenic hills of the Algarve in the Vila De Bispo region.
On the main floor is bedroom 1 with twin beds, fitted wardrobe with plenty of storage space and double doors to a 'juliet' balcony with countryside views. Adjacent is a bathroom, with bath and shower, bidet and toilet. Along the hallway there is the open plan kitchen, dining and living area.
The fully equipped kitchen has a dishwasher, washing machine, cooker, fridge freezer, microwave and double doors to 'juliet' balcony . The dining area has a stylish glass topped table and chairs to seat 4. The living area has a 3 & 2 seater settee, 2 glass topped low tables, a flat screen TV and DVD player.
The glass sliding doors give access to the balcony with extensive countryside views where you can enjoy evening sunsets and bird watching as they swoop in and around the many trees and adjacent fig tree where the Blue Jay's love to hide under the leaves.
Bedroom 2 can be reached by climbing the open wooden spiral staircase to the mezzanine floor where there a is double bed and another bathroom. This quirky bedroom space has sloping ceilings however there is adequate room for movement, with clothes hanging and storage space.
This area of the Algarve is a haven for families, surfers, sun worshippers, golfers, walkers, cyclists and everyone. This light, airy, beautiful apartment is ideal for family holidays and for couples who just fancy a romantic get away, in this wonderful part of the world.
There are many beaches within a 15km range to suit every taste - you could try a different one every day or just enjoy Burgau beach with its local bars and restaurants. A car is not essential, as the local bus routes pass through the village several times a day.
Casa Espiral is a No Smoking apartment and is unsuitable for small children and pets.
At the end of each stay or week the towels and linen are changed and the apartment is thoroughly cleaned for the next guests.

A place to return to
We really enjoyed our 7 day stay in the apartment! Being close to the village center but remote enough to have some private space was exactly what we were looking for. The apartment ist very spacious, it easily fits 4 to sleep and some dinner guests. We definitely plan to come back to visit with the greater family.

Casa Espiral
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Espiral and would highly recommend. There was a problem with the WiFi but Nuno from ATB was on hand to sort it. Nothing was too much trouble. The condominium is quiet and very well maintained as was the pool and it was heated. What a bonus

Tolles Apartment!!
Für uns war diese Wohnung optimal: mit zwei Teenagern, die im oberen Bereich mit Bad ihr eigenes Revier hatten, derweil wir unten unser Schlafzimmer mit Bad hatten. Die hatten auch kein Problem rechtzeitig den Kopf einzuziehen, wenn die Decke etwas niedriger ist ;-) Das Wohnzimmer mit offener Küche ist tagsüber hell, licht und sehr großzügig mit den hohen Decken! Ein Highlight ist außerdem die Lage: damit nicht nur die Strandnähe, sondern vor allem auch die Straßen-(und Pool-)abgewandte Lage ohne Nachbarn darüber. Es war echt ruhig! Und Freunde härterer Matratzen werden ihre helle Freude haben. Wir können das Apartment sehr empfehlen!

OK
We didn’t get off to a good start which probably put a slight downer on things. It is quite a nice apartment but we felt it wasn’t presented as well as it could have been. The upstairs is quirky but note that the ceiling is mostly very low and you have to get out of bed bent until you step down at the foot of the bed where you can stand up straight. Also this upstairs bathroom is sloped ceiling and we found it best to sit in the bath and shower. It is very peaceful and quiet but still within the village

Perfect!
This really is a lovely apartment. It has a huge kitchen, with all the mod cons you need, large dining area & really comfortable lounge area. The bedrooms are spacious too, and the bathrooms great. The upstairs bedroom is massive & a lovely space. The pool area was spotlessly clean, and the pool itself so refreshing! There were loungers for our use if we wanted to sit by the pool. We chose to spend most of our time at the gorgeous beach in Burgau though, which some days had huge waves, & other days was like a mill pond! So many restaurants to choose from in the village, we ate somewhere different every night for a week, & never had a bad meal. All communications were quick & friendly & I’d definitely recommend this apartment & would stay here again.

Special Casa Espiral
This apartment was over and above what we expected. Very spacious. The owner responded immediately with any questions we had. The small complex was quiet and very relaxing. The pool was better than what I thought from the pictures. We will definitely be recommending this accommodation to friends and families and hope to rent again next year.

A very good place to stay!
The appartment is very cozy. And it has everything we needed to stay with comfort. The place is very beautiful, quite and offers what we were looking for. We loved to stay in Burgau and to visit small cities and beautiful beaches like São Rafael, Benagil, etc. We didn't meet our Host, but she was very fast to answer our questions. The only thing that can be better are the lamps at night. And very important to BE CLEAR that are stairs to reach the house(apartment), not only the stairs to the bedroom upstairs. We had some difficulties with my parents with 80 and 86 years old.

Vacances au top!!!
Super vacances dans la "Casa espiral". Cet appartement est très spacieux, joli et agréable. Il est très bien situé car tout peut se faire à pied, le supermarché est à 2 minutes, la plage a 5 minutes. De nombreux restaurants ou l'on mange très bien. Les prix au supermarché, dans les restaurants et dans les magasins de Burgau sont très abordables. Les propriétaires des magasins sont également supers gentils et accueillants. Nous avons fait une randonnée magnifique le long des plages jusqu'au restaurant le Cabanas Beach, qui est super bon, dans un endroit idyllique, juste penser à reserver. Nous avons passer un séjour agréable en famille. Burgau est une ville magnifique, avec beaucoup de charme et proche de toutes les grandes villes. Nous reviendrons passer des vacances dans cette appartement avec beaucoup de plaisir. Merci à Lorraine pour toutes les indications transmises.

Schöner Familienurlaub im Casa Espiral
Wir haben den Aufenthalt in der großzügigen Ferienwohnung "Casa Espiral" sehr genossen. Wohnung, Anlage und Pool waren sehr sauber und gepflegt. Burgau ist ein gemütliches Ferienziel und guter Ausgangspunkt auch zu den schönen Stränden der Westküste oder nach Lagos und Portimao. Der Ort selbst hat einen schönen Sandstrand, der geschützt und auch für Familien mit kleinen Kindern geeignet ist. Die Einweisung für die Wohnung hat auch viele Tipps für denn Alltag (z.B. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten) und einen schönen Urlaub enthalten. Die Ausstattung mit Spülmaschine, Waschmaschine und zwei Bädern war super. Fernseher und eine DVD-Sammlung sind auch vorhanden - waren für uns aber nicht wichtig. Vielen Dank an Lorraine!

About the host

Hosted by Lorraine

Host profile image
I have been coming to Burgau and the local area for well over 12 years and enjoy all that the village and surrounding area has to offer. A wonderful place to unwind and relax.

Why they chose this property

I like this property as it is very spacious and airy with a certain quirkiness. With its porthole window and spiral staircase one could almost be in the Crows Nest! The balcony looks out over the surrounding countryside of the St Vincente National Park which stretches up the West coast for approx 100 k. It is an extraordinary coastline, very ruggged and wild, loved by tourists and surfers alike.
