About this property
CASA CITRINO - ROMANTIC GET-AWAY - HISTORICAL OLHAO
Fall in love with Olhão from our amazing, spacious rooftop terrace. From here, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the sea, the sun, the charming white cubistic houses, and the wonderful cobbled streets of this unspoiled gem of a fishermen's town. Welcome to Casa Citrino, a luxurious Old Merchant's House, lovingly restored and renovated to preserve its authentic beauty.
Located in the heart of Olhão's bustling historic center, our townhouse is in a pedestrian area, just a few minutes' walk from vibrant markets, seaside restaurants, and 7 minutes from the local ferryboats.
The Apartment is placed on the first and second floor, and you will have the whole place to your self, and you have a private entrance from the street as well, At the first floor you are met by a welcoming hall, a large master bedroom with a French balcony, a delightful dining room, a guest room and a large bathroom with bathtub, and a fully equipped kitchen with bespoke cabinets. From the kitchen you will take the stairs to the second floor to the second bedroom and bath room, and from here you have entrance to the highlight of the place, which is our large terrace, Its perfect for relaxing on the sunbeds, enjoying your meals, or simply sipping a glass of wine while soaking in the views. You can also enjoy a cup of coffee from the out door kitchen placed on the terrace.
Our spacious apartment is all yours to enjoy, but we bet you'll spend most of your time relaxing on the terrace, exploring the city, feasting at local restaurants, or enjoying the fantastic beaches on the islands of Armona, Culatra, or Farol. We're happy to share our favorite pastimes and hidden gems of Olhão and the Algarve with you. Everything you need is close by – the Pingo Doce supermarket is just a 2-minute walk away, and you're already living in the historical center. Seaside restaurants are a 5-minute walk, and the ferries to the islands are another 5 minutes away.

About the host
Hosted by Claus&Christina
We are Christina, half Portuguese, half Danish and Claus, born and raised in Denmark - Portuguese by heart. We are totally in love with Olhão, and were so lucky to take over our Casa Citrino in 2017 - formerly known as the Old Merchant´s House. Christina works with digital communication, and Claus is in the pharma industry - but we love travelling, cooking and the lovely vibe of Olhão.
Why they chose this property
This is a unique authentic, small Portuguese town. It has the most fantastic beaches and yes, you need to take the ferry to the islands for the beach. But its all part of the charm. And one of the things we love, is, that it is still almost unspoiled for the rest of the world. good restaurants and easy living.
What makes this property unique
A Quiet, spacious and luxurious apartment with grand roof top terrace. What's not to like. The neighborhood is very relaxed and quiet, and even though you are in the middle of the town, you can easily forget time and place and just sink into the laid back, self confident vibe of the city. Only back lash: You may never want to leave. The best feature - the terrace with seas view, lots of sun and a nice view of the town.
