Guest comments
Just wanted to email you to say we had a fantastic holiday – your apartment was lovely & homely and seemed to have everything we needed. We often went to the swimming pool in the afternoon, which was a real bonus – it never got busy & was a nice change to be on a lounger instead of sand & was always very clean & very safe for the children.

We had a wonderful time in Salema! What a fabulous place!! The children loved the apartment and I must say it is kitted out really well - we even got a chance to watch a few of your movies. We had a really lovely relaxing holiday. Definitely a return destination for us and will recommend both Salema and your apartment to our friends! Many Thanks for everything!!!

We had a great time thanks - fantastic weather. I surfed every day - mainly at Armado, beautiful beach, good waves. We both liked Salema, it was nice and quiet but still with plenty to do.

Owner profile
About the owner
Julie and I live in a little village on the edge of an historic East of England market town. We both work, and enjoy walking, ski-ing and living in the countryside, but head out to Portugal for most of our holidays in Salema, which we really love.
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
We love Salema because it is so unspoilt, and as part of a National Park will always remain so. It's a typical fishing village, very friendly and never gets as crowded as other parts of the Algarve. There are some wonderful walks, amazing beaches and the sea front boasts a great range of bars and restaurants. There really is something for everyone here, especially families. We also liked the fact that the area is easily accessible, with Faro airport just over an hour's drive away.
Unique benefits of the property
The property is just five minutes walk from the fabulous beach. We provide umbrellas, games and even some videos and books, so you can travel light and make the most of the great coastline. For those who enjoy a more active holiday, you can play golf (the Parque da Floresta course is at the top of the road), walk in the national park or along the Via Algarviana long distance footpath, discover stunning, hidden coves, or head over to the West Coast surfing beaches just 15 minutes away. If you're looking for great food, we can also recommend local restaurants in the village or nearby. Just ask for information when booking.
