About this property

Apartment With Front Line Sea Views And Large Balcony,150m From Beach,

The apartment has all that could be needed for a relaxing holiday on one of Europe’s beautiful coastline. The location itself cannot be faulted sitting on a high vantage point offering views of an amazing beach, with rock pools and coves. Each room exits onto the large terrace which enjoys sunshine from early morning to mid afternoon. The apartment truly is a home from home coming complete with all conveniences you would expect, including free WiFi . Access to beach level is provided via a lift and there is a private and secure car park. The property also has a Lodging Licence (no 5561/AL) which all holiday rentals are required to have by law.
From the beach, at low tide, you can walk to both Villamora and Albuferia, stopping at several beach bars or restaurants on the way… Villamora has a Marina and also boasts many world class Golf Courses. Albufeira is livelier with its "old town" and street market. The "Algarve shopping" centre is in nearby Guia, easily accessed via car. There are many beautiful beaches nearby. Other activities include Zoomarine and Waterparks. Organised Boat or Fishing Trips are easy to book through the Ticket Office in the village .

Lovely holiday

We had a wonderful relaxing stay in Norman's apartment. The apartment itself has everything you could need for a comfortable self-catering holiday but due to its proximity to the little resort (literally 2 minutes) it is just as easy to eat out at the many and varied restaurants in the area. The views are lovely from the apartment and the pool area is such a bonus and never got too busy whilst we were there. In all a little gem and we will be going back !

Thank you for your review and I am pleased you were delighted with the apartment Therefore a little supprised to recieve my first 3 star one in 5 years and over 100 guests. The unheated pool is chilly in November but very welcome from April to Oct when temps are in high 20's The terrace, during the summer enjoys sun right through till mid afternoon though in November the sun tends to set earlier. Would love to welcome you back to the Agarve for your next holiday, poss a little earlier in the year to fully appreciate the property.

Gorgeous views

This apartment has a fabulous terrace with its own sunloungers and plenty of space. It offers stunning views over the pool, to the beach and up the coast. It is very well equipped to make your apartment a temporary home from home. The lift in this block makes the apartment ideal for those of limited mobility. It enables easy acccess to the beach and also an easy walk to the facilities at the higher part of Olhos de Agua.

The apartment was very good, plenty of space on the balcony, ideal spot although the balcony lost the sun at about 3.30. Not enough beds around the pool was a bit of a pain. But overall, a good apartment on a nice spot.

Thanks for review and glad you enjoyed the apartment. In regards to lack of sun beds around the pool this is down to the management of the condominium and have passed your comments onto them. Again thanks for choosing my apartment and hope we see you again.

This unit was PERFECT It is in an excellent location. We had a rental car, so it had secure underground parking. The unit has everything you need. The LARGE balcony is especially good as it has lots of room for lounges, chairs table, umbrella etc. We are particularly fussy about having a good mattress, and this one met all the demands. The host Norman was excellent and pro - active. Quick to respond to Emails We will definitely come back to this unit.

Home in the sun

This is our second stay at this apartment and yet again it was an excellent choice. All you need is in the apartment including washing machine and dishwasher, and internet connection. A large balcony is there for you to enjoy the sea view and to bask in the sunshine. There is a communal swimming pool and plenty of sunbeds so there is no need to get there first in the morning for the best spot! The owner of this beautiful apartment is always contactable if you have any issues (which we had none!) with plenty of advice regarding places to go and car rental etc.

Lovely apartment

We stayed august 2022 for a week in this lovely apartment. The pool area was lovely, everything was great. Everything we needed was there. The air con worked well and we got English tv. We did have a little problem with the lift. I am disabled and can’t manage stairs. We could get the lift down from the apartment easily. But at the end of the night 11pm ish. we couldn’t get it to take us back up to 0 (our floor). So one night my husband left me in the lift and decided to go up the stairs to our floor and call the lift from there(bringing me up to our floor). I felt the lift just jolt and move a tiny bit and then stop. None of the buttons would work and I was stuck in the lift on my mobility scooter. The old man in the car park office didn’t know what to do except phone the fire brigade. They promptly arrived after about 30 mins and rescued me. They were really friendly blokes and it was a relief to see them, so being rescued by firemen is a tick off my bucket list lol. We didn’t use the lift again at night to come up we decided to walk around the building up quite a steep incline. But we didn’t let this didn’t spoil our holiday at all and we would stay at Normans apartment again as it was so nice. The little town was enough for us, plenty of eateries a lovely beach and lots of sunshine. We will be back, thank you Norman x

About the host

Hosted by Norman Jones

Host profile image

I live in N Wales having worked for the National Trust as a Building surveyor I had decided to look for a holiday home for my impending retirement. My search for a property on the Algarve began in 2010 and after many trips out there have finally been fortunate enough to purchase an apartment which is not only located in the area we wanted but a lovely apartment with sea views that make this a perfect spot. I have always looked forward to having a bolt hole to spend long winter breaks with my partner and family.

Why they chose this property

Why Olhos? I first came to Olhos d Agua in 1999 not returning for some 13 years I was pleasantly surprised to see it still retained its charm and character.
It sits just 30 minutes drive from the airport and is in between two of the regions biggest attractions – Villamora with its world class golf courses, up market boutiques and marina. Just a few minutes in the other direction is Alburfuria with its new marina and quaint old town.
The location of the apartment itself cannot be faulted sitting as it does on a high vantage point offering views of an amazing beach, with rock pools and coves. From the beach, you can walk to both Villamora and Alburfuria, stopping at several beach bars or restaurants on the way…

What makes this property unique

The apartment has all that could be needed for a relaxing holiday on one of Europe’s most popular coastlines. It boasts a very large terrace occupying almost as large a floor area as the apartment itself enjoying sunshine from early morning – perfect for an al -fresco breakfast and relaxing.
Inside a high quality fitted kitchen with through lounge. This contains a sofa bed, a chair, and coffee table. Both this room and the bedroom lead out onto the terrace. The bathroom boasts a WC, bidet washbasin and a bath with a power shower.
A communal pool and the beach is just 50M away, accessed down steps situated directly outside the lobby door or there is even a lift which takes you down to the street level adjacent to the beach. You also have your secure own parking space below
