There is also a children’s playground and beautifully tended walkways and gardens to spend some quiet time.
You will be able to stock up on almost anything you need at the Old Village’s supermarket and there are various restaurants on site whether you want a quick snack or a more fulfilling meal. There is a bar with snooker/pool just minutes from the apartment.
Just Outside the Old Village ........:
Just outside the complex and within walking distance, you will have your choice of visiting the local square where you will find more restaurants and bars and the local cinema where the latest films are shown in English. Walk a little further and you are at Europe’s largest Marina. Here you will find more nightlife with restaurants and bars and even a Casino. A visit to the Marina at night is a must where you can shop at Designer stores till late and just wander till your heart’s content all the while enjoying Europe’s finest climate.
It is at this Marina, you will be able to arrange a variety of water sports from sailing and windsurfing to paragliding. Or maybe go deep-sea fishing or dolphin spotting. You certainly won’t find yourself at a loss for things to do.
You will be set among the beautiful fairways of the Pinhal Golf Course with many other of the finest course in Europe a short distance from the Old Village.
And a Little Further .......:
A short car ride from the Old Village you will find the Aqua Show Water Park that is truly a fun filled day out.
There are local markets in Quarteira and beaches are all within walking distance.
You will need a car, or a taxi, to get to either The Forum Shopping Centre in Faro (near the Airport) or to Guia Shopping near Albufeira. Both are open-air centres with multi-screen cinemas and Bowling (in Guia).
Albufeira is also very close by car for some more extravagant nightlife on the main strip.
Rest assured, whatever you are looking for on your holiday, be it rest and relaxation, beach and nightlife, sports, shopping or sightseeing, you will not be disappointed. And staying at the Old Village will give you access to all this without spending your holiday in a stuffy car getting back and forth.
The owner will also help arrange your airport transfers if requested.
Golf:
This 5 bedroom townhouse is less than 10 minutes drive from Vilamoura's 4 (soon to be 5) championship golf courses. The Old Course, being on the first course built in the Algarve and still the favourite in Vilamoura with every hole being lined with umbrella pines. Pinhal is also lined with pine trees for most of the course but you get a few glimpses of the ocean on the back 9 holes. Laguna, as the name suggest, has plenty of water holes so bring some old balls with you for this course. Millennium has the contrast of tightly knit pine tree holes and nice open holes that encourage opening up the shoulders a bit. All this and we still haven't ventured out of Vilamoura. You are easily within distance to try your swing at the other courses in nearby Vale do Lobo, Vila Sol and Quinta do Lago.
The owner can also set you up with a contact for booking golf times, etc.
