Townhouse Beach House Albufeira

Review of Client

We spent 2 wonderful weeks in the Beach House in August 2013.
The location is excellent, looking across a street with very little traffic to the beach and the sea. It is a 5 minute stroll to the escalators at the top of Fisherman’s Beach and the old town. Directly across the road are steps down to the beach and a beach bar/restaurant. In front of the bar, on the sand, were loungers for which we had complimentary access. There are another couple of bars/restaurants within a minute’s walk either side of the house.

The house itself has a beautifully cool living area (with 2 bedrooms leading off, each of which can be locked for additional security) and a spacious kitchen (with a bathroom/shower room leading off). At the back there is a small courtyard surrounded by 2 other bedrooms and the steps up to the top level. The courtyard is a sun trap during the day and ideal for sitting relaxing and enjoying a nightcap (or two) in the pleasant temperature later at night.

The 2 bedrooms off the courtyard have their own bathrooms/shower rooms and are quiet and very comfortable.
Up on the top level there is a huge area for sun-worshippers then, up another few steps towards the front of the house, is another large area with the raised pool, a large table and chairs and a gigantic parasol. Just perfect for pre-dinner drinks and nibbles!

During the course of the 2 weeks, the house was regularly cleaned and maintained to a very high standard, and everyone we met, including the owner, was very friendly and helpful.
This would be our first call for future visits to Albufeira and I have no hesitation in recommending it as an ideal holiday home.
