About this property
Sao Rafael Beach Resort, Nr Albufeira, Central Algarve. Sleeps 4 + child in cot.
In the most prestigious and sought after front line location on the entire Sao Rafael complex in the Algarve, this spacious and superbly furnished upper floor 2 bed apartment offers the shortest walk to 2 magnificent beaches and is one of the fewer to offer south facing balcony views of beautiful cliff and sea vistas. The website onbeach.com has voted Sao Rafael as Portugal's best beach & the 4th best in Europe. The environmental organisation Quercus has said that 15 of the Albufeira coast beaches, including Sao Rafael, have excellent water quality and Blue Flag status. Both beaches have superb restaurants and bars. The complex has a small supermarket within walking distance with several larger supermarkets including Lidl, Aldi Spar and Apolonia a few mins drive away.
The Albufeira marina with its many shops, cafes and bars, is within walking distance where an array of water sport activities are on offer and the charming old town of Albufeira is a few minutes drive away. Numerous great golf courses are also close to hand.
The recently redecorated apartment has a new modern en-suite bathroom, re-fitted and upgraded shower room in 2020. Refurbished kitchen in 2022. New mattresses on beds plus unlimited Internet access with all multi national TV channels including sports channels available. CD/Radio/MP3 player.
We have an English speaking management team who will meet & greet you and be available for help if needed during your stay.
