About this property

Private Condominium, 400 Metres From The Beach, 2 Minutes from Market And Shops

Beautiful, bright and airy 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom corner apartment in a private condominium with two terraces (35ft and 22ft long) peacefully situated with lovely views over local countryside, yet just two minutes from the friendly local market and shops, and 400 metres from the beach, it's a wonderfully relaxing place to spend your holiday.
The double rooms have Super-King size beds. All bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and drawers. Each room has fans, surround sound, electric shutters (providing complete darkness for sleeping if required), and patio doors onto the terraces. There are tables and chairs on the terraces. In the lounge there is WIFI, Smart TV, DVD player with memory stick capability and DVD library, selection of board games. There are Leather sofas, a comfortable leather recliner with matching footstool and a dining table which seats 8 before being extended.
The Master bathroom has a shower and bath, the en-suite has a walk-in rain-shower. There is a fully equipped kitchen and double bay underground garage with lift to all floors. Also parking bays outside the building.
There is a secure garden with heated pool which slopes at one end to give a shallow area for little ones, wooden sundecks to three sides, poolside WC/showers and play area for little ones on a rubberised surface. We have sun-loungers in garage for your exclusive use. There is an entry-phone system. We have a high chair and a travel cot.
An hour from Lisbon, Sao Martinho is a friendly, relaxed community with a safe, sheltered beach and plenty of nice cafes and restaurants, which are all very good value. (It used to be the holiday destination of the Portuguese Royal Family). It's still a popular choice for Portuguese people and is considered 'real' Portugal. The south end of the beach is a nature reserve with a boardwalk around to the next village. In summer there are lifeguards and shade tents on the beach, water sports, bike rental on the prom, and often entertainment on the green.
It makes an excellent base for visiting interesting places like Obidos, Sintra, Fatima, Alcobaca etc. Surf beaches are close by, as are golf courses such as the award-winning Praia del Rey, Bom Successo and Royal Obidos. Also nearby - Historical sites and old palaces, riding, surfing, body-boarding, sailing, walking, paragliding, canoeing, caving, golf, bowling, waterpark, paddle-boarding, adventure parks, cinema, fishing. There is even a dinosaur coast and an old Roman city.
The apartment has a Portuguese Tourist Board Licence

Another great holiday!

We returned to this flat having enjoyed our holiday last Easter. The flat is in a quiet, residential area a short walk from the bay and town. It is a pleasant walk through the old town to the beach. The flat is clean, spacious and comfortable. There is a good range of bars and restaurants within walking distance. We liked Cafe Rosa for a pre-dinner drink as it is friendly and not touristy. The Casa restaurant is good for a special meal. Gaivota (Seagull) is ideal for a lighter and cheaper meal. Foz do Arelho is lovely at sunset and the drive is very spectacular. We will certainly go again.

Very clean and spacious apartment.

The apartment is very clean, spacious and comfortable. It is nicely furnished and the apartment has a great layout with a large, airy lounge, and a well equipped kitchen. The bedrooms are a good size as are the two bathrooms(one en-suite). The owner provided good customer service and was prompt with responses to queries. The apartment was conveniently situated for the Supermarket, fruit and vegetable market and pastry shop. We enjoyed the restaurants and one family restaurant is on the next street to the apartment. The beach was approximately 400 metres from the apartment and could be reached by walking through the pleasant old town and descending to the beach area via a lift!

We are a family of six me and my wife ,two teenage boys,daughter and boyfreind there was plenty of room in the appartment. It was clean and tidy the beds were comfortable. The facilities were very good .The supermarket was a 5 minute walk away it had a lot of choice and was not expensive.If you like a cup of tea take your own tea bags though .There was nothing to dislike about the area or the appartment .The beach in the bay was very well kept the front along the beach with its bars,shops and restaurants was very relaxing.The food wasnt expensive in the restauraunts follow the locals. The beach had a lovely sea breeze it didnt feel to hot, even though it was. We flew to lisbon airport it took about an hour to get to the appartment. We booked the taxi a return journey with a company recommended by the owner of the appartment it was £178 .

Cuenta con un garaje en el que caben dos vehículos y allí tiene a disposición tumbonas para usar en la zona de piscina.

Buena ubicación, espacio tranquilo para desconectar de las grandes ciudades. Casa amplia y bien equipada. Buena comunicación en general con el propietario y disposición de Nicole.

Recomendamos

Apartamento a cerca de 10 min da praia, a pé, bastante espaçoso, bem decorado e super bem equipado (inclusive possui um berço e uma cadeira alta para o bebé comer). As divisões são todas climatizadas mas não estão disponíveis os comandos, no entanto a temperatura é agradável e não foi necessário. Supermercado, mercado e restaurantes próximos. A comunicação com os proprietários foi excelente! O único "se não" é mesmo o gradeamento das varandas que não é de todo apropriado para crianças pois são autênticas "escadas". Recomendamos!

Dear Hilario I have checked with our apartment manager and she confirms that the temperature was such that no air conditioning was needed, but she did explain that there was a problem with the air conditioning and that is why we had provided fans in the rooms. The car park remote controls are currently being repaired (everything is delayed due to covid) but the car park is accessible from the building. Like many outdoor pools, the pool is maintained at 28 degrees to ensure it is refreshing but doesn't get too cold. I am pleased that you were happy with everything else in the apartment.

About the host

Hosted by Audrey Ellis

Host profile image
We are British, and worked abroad for many years as my husband, Adrian, is a hotel manager.

Why they chose this property

We love going to Sao Martinho. The town is so friendly and relaxing, yet we've never been bored as there are so many interesting places to visit within an hour's drive, including a number of world heritage sites and even a dinosaur coast. There are also lots of lovely beaches. It's an easy drive from Lisbon and there are lots of good restaurants at exceptional value. The bay is almost fully enclosed, making it the safest and warmest in Portugal. The Silver Coast is different from the Algarve - still relatively 'undiscovered', sophisticated yet charming, and not full of crowds. It's where the Portuguese like to go on holiday. In the area there's golf, water sports, a wine route and even a chocolate festival! We hope you enjoy it too!

What makes this property unique

Our apartment is on a corner of the building and isn't directly overlooked. The sun shines onto the kitchen terrace in the morning, so we love to eat breakfast in the sun, overlooking the garden and countryside, but as the sun moves round to the other terrace in the afternoon, the apartment always stays cool. The pool is heated from April to October, so the refreshing sea breezes don't make the water too cool to swim and it's open all year round. There's also a WC and shower room by the pool. It's so convenient for the charming and friendly local market and shops and it's only 400 metres to the beachfront and restaurants, meaning no-one has to drive when going out in the evening.
