Wunderbare Woche in toller Wohnung

Wir durften 1 Woche in der schönen Wohnung verbringen. Zentral in Olhao gelegen, fussläufig alles zu erreichen, die Innenstadt, der Hafen, Möglichkeiten zum einkaufen, alles gleich ums Eck. Wir genossen die Weitläufigkeit der Wohnung, 4 Schlafzimmer, dazu ein grosses Wohnzimmer und die schöne Küche. Hohe Decken, stilvolle Fliesen und tolle Fenster runden das Ganze ab. Die 2 Dachterrassen sind der Knaller und wir verbrachten viel Zeit dort mit genialen Ausblick über die Stadt. Danke an Simone&Ruben

Nice place in the old town

La maison est superbe, atypique et très agréable à vivre sur un séjour d'une semaine. Terrasse sur le toit extrêmement plaisante. Maison très bien rénovée en conservant tout le charme de l'ancien. Propriétaire très disponible et serviable.

Magnifique maison avec splendide terrasse qui surplombe olhão

Très belle maison restaurée avec goût , idéalement située pour découvrir olhão à pied(centre ,marché, port et ferry,restaurants) et pour rayonner dans cette magique region. La terrasse est magnifique et permet de s'imprégner d'une belle vue d'ensemble des toits terrasse typiques de olhão. Un peu compliqué quand même de monter par l'escalier raide pour manger sur la terrasse...literies et services top. Hôtes très serviables. Un super séjour

Great!

A truly beautifully restored property, with mod cons. Excellent location , close to taxi ( airport Faro) + rail station for exploring Algarve beyond Olhao. But a mere 5 minute stroll to the Ria, famous markets, ferry to Islands, and multiple restaurants. This great location has one downside.. inevitable traffic noise at peak times. As only 2 of us had only access to part of this very large apartment. So limits my advice to others. Well equipped. 4 season heating possibilities. Do not think the right choice for folk with *any* mobility issue. Would not consider suitable for younger children requiring independent easy toilet access! In every other respect would highly recommend this *grand* apartment. If you want to be up close to original Venetian plaster art .. enjoy!

Great location

Great property with adequate amenities. Shame there wasn’t any air conditioning. We were supplied with fans which would not have been sufficient if the weather was hotter. However, the house was very comfortable and the terrace was great. Location is ideal with the taxi rank just out front and the train station is also very close by. Shops and restaurants are also within walking distance and easily located.

Beautiful apartment right in the centre of Olhão.

We had a great stay in Simone’s apartment. It’s been renovated recently with great care. We loved the roof terrace and the design of the whole place. Large rooms, high ceilings, great location near the church. We’re already planning a return visit!
