Sao Rafael is a prestigious, 'open-plan' complex of low rise apartments and villas in a beautiful setting, in well-maintained, landscaped gardens, occupying one of the most sought after locations in the Algarve, overlooking the sea. It offers a peaceful, non-stressful holiday location. Our apartment is only a few minutes stroll from the un-spoilt coves of Sao Rafael with its sandy beaches (European Blue Flag), cliff top walks and popular beach bars/restaurants. Sao Rafael is 40 kms from Faro Airport - approx 30 mins by car. It is 3 kms from the centre of Albufeira which rightly claims to be the original tourist capital of the region. Nearby restaurants are too numerous to mention here but many in walking distance, seafood is in abundance but all tastes are catered for. Guia and Zoomarine (where you can swim with the dolphins) are a short drive away. Algarve Shopping Mall and Cinema Complex is very near. Albufeira Marina is within walking distance where boat trips are available.

Whilst we normally stick to a Wednesday/Thursday changeover day, other days may be considered to fit in with existing lets. Short 3 day lets are possible and long term lets will always be considered. A discount will be available for lets longer than 2 weeks. Generally the apartment will need to be vacated by 11.00 am on the day of departure but if you have a late flight then consideration will be given to you staying in the apartment a bit longer dependant upon whether or not anyone else is arriving that day. Please don't hesitate to ask.
