Apartment overview

The apartment is 5min walking distance from the city marina, where you can find boat taxis which can lead guests to the soft sandy beaches on the beautiful islands lying in the Ria Formosa Natural Park.
The old town which has been carefully restored, is also close by the apartment. One of the most popular areas of downtown Faro, the traditional shopping streets and a choice of bars and restaurants, is also at the doorstep.

DISTANCES
From Ria Formosa and the beaches: 15 minutes by boat.
From the Faro Island: 15 minutes.
From the bus station: 600 metres.
From the train station: 150 metres.
From the Forum Algarve shopping and leisure centre: 1 km.

The apartment is located in the city centre within an area
classified as historic. Merely 100 meters from the bus station and 80 meters from the train station, and only a 10 minute drive to Faro International Airport, this is an ideal area.

There are many historical places of interest to enjoy. We suggest that you visit o Largo da Sé, which is surrounded by an exquisite 18 th century architecture. Behind the Sé, you can find the Archaeological Museum , and the Algarve Regional Museum situated at the Pontinha. A very popular attraction is the Igreja do Carmo, where you will come across a curious chapel with human bones. In this same location you can marvel at some stork families, which nest here and remain throughout the year.
You can also appreciate a neo-Arabic construction of the 20 th century building that is home to the "Banco de Portugal" (Portugal Bank). Just down the road from here, you can not miss visiting the famous Rua de Santo Antonio for all your shopping requirements.
Estoi is 8 kilometres from Faro and is a perfect example of typical Algarvian architecture. Here you can witness the breathtaking views of the coast outlined by a characteristic white stretch of the Algarvian buildings, and castles pertaining to the 18 th and 19 th centuries with their baroque gardens. Close by you can visit the Milreu Ruins, an ancient Roman village of the 1 st century

What a fabulous little find. What we would love to do is say bad things about the apartment so no one else would book it and we could have it all to ourselves. The only reason for the lack of 5 stars for cleanliness is that my wife is a cleaning guru,(hell to live with,ho ho.). Gigi and Rod are the most wonderful hosts, the apartment is great with...

Rod makes a wonderful host. He went out of his way to make sure that we were comfortable in his and Gigis beautiful apartment. He even sorted out a grumpy taxi driver for us!

A convenient location with everything we needed for a holiday. Beds are comfortable, good shower and lots of space. There are views of the sea from most of the windows.
