Amazing place in an amazing place

We did not know what to expect when booked this oceanside penthouse. We were so pleased with the space, with the quality of the apartment, and the beauty of the views from all corners of the penthouse. It was well stocked, and so convenient to restaurants and grocery stores. We loved to sit on the patio and in the living room and just look at the view. There are terraces almost from every room. This is a magical place and we will be back.”

Beachfront Condo

We really enjoyed our stay in Quarteira. It is centrally located in the Algarve so it was easy to explore many different area. The town itself had many restaurants and shops as well, and the location directly across the street from the beach couldn't have been more convenient. There are beach chairs and umbrellas for rent, but they book up quickly in the high season so try to reserve them the day before. Also nearby is Vilamoura which had a ton of nice restaurants right on the Marina. It was about a 20 minute walk or easy uber ride from the condo. The condo itself was immaculate and had everything we needed. We loved spending time on the balcony and all of the bedrooms were very comfortable. The Algarve is one of the most beautiful places we have ever visited. We would love to come back here one day and have more time to relax and enjoy the many beautiful hikes and beaches. ”
