Owner profile
About the owner
Our family have been great fans of the Algarve for over 15 years, and have always been particularly fond of the area around Albufeira and Olhos de Agua. The opportunity to buy this property through a friend in the real estate business in Portugal arose and we jumped at the chance. We have taken great pride in furnishing the apartment with brand new good quality furniture, and guests always compliment us on the quality of the apartment and its facilities. My husband, myself our 2 children visit the Algarve 3-4 times a year. The weather is wall to wall sunshine in summer, and lovely and mild in winter with bright blue skies, perfect for golf! It makes a lovely change from the wind and rain at home, so its lovely to sneak off to Portugal for a weekend between November and March.
Year purchased: 2008
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We were keen to get a property close to the beach, so when this property was available off plan, we could see from its location it was going to have amazing views of the beach and coastline, and also be in the centre of a beautiful Portuguese village. However its close enough to the larger resorts of Albufeira and Vilamoura if you fancy a change of scenery one evening. Olhos de Agua, meaning Eyes of the the Water, is still a small fishing village at heart, but has some fantastic restaurants and friendly bars and a beautiful beach.
Unique benefits of the property
Our apartment offers private parking, accessible by lift. The lift also takes you right down to the street in the resort, to save your legs if the steps are too challenging in the sunshine! Our balcony is somewhat larger than many of the others in the complex, and is in the sun all day until approx 5pm. It is also sheltered so if it is a bit breezy, in the cooler months, you will still feel the benefit of the warm sunshine. The views of Olhos beach and Falesia beach are breathtaking, we also overlook the pool which does not get crowded, even in high season. I can guarantee you will enjoy your stay at our apartment, and want to visit again. Some of our guests are already on their 3rd visit, which is pretty good considering we have only been open for a year !
