Traditional restaurants and modern bars are available in this natural setting, providing you with all your needs without spoiling the raw beauty of the village.

The area is great for golfers with the championship course at Penina, Gramacho and Alto and all close by, and with easy access to another 26 course across the Algarve. There is the marine zoo and several waterparks nearby for the children to see, and for the adults a visit to towns like Lagos or Silves.

Review Submitted: March 20, 2011 Date of Stay: January 2011
Its located in a charming village,near the see..The flat is like a home,with
a well equiped kitchen,and fine beeds.
The flat is well cleaned and the service was exellent - very frendly and help-
full.
We have stayed in the appartment for 3 holidays(12 weeks) and it is a pleasure for us to recommand the place to other guests.
We have been very satisfied with tthe local Mercado municipal (the lokal market ) with meat, fish and fruit etc. All of it in the best quility and a fair price.

My impressions of 'Quinta da Praia'

Review Submitted: June 14, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
The amenities of the apartment and services provided together with the most pleasant weather combined to provide us with a very enjoyable holiday.

The colourful decor, its spaciousness, large balcony, atmosphere and situation make this accommodation an ideal holiday location.

The pool area is most attractive with a fine grass surround, large palms and flowering shrubs which add colour to the scene.

One note of discord would be that the safe door had no lock and that one or two of the balcony window door locks did not operate properly.

In conclusion this was a memorable experience which would be readily repeated and is thoroughly recommended

Great Apartment

Review Submitted: April 3, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Excellent location and very well equipped apartment. Sunny balcony for breakfast and lunch. Five minute walk to village center and about the same to the beautiful beaches. Two restaurants and a coffee shop in the block and a small food shop. The number eight bus stop is just outside the apt. and this takes you to the shopping mall where the Continente supermaket is. The weather was lovely.
The only difficulty we had was that when it was very windy it was hard to stop the shutters banging without closing them and blocking out the light. Could have done with a couple more pillowcases. No complaints and a great place.
