About this property

Sea views and easy beach access in completely renovated historic house

Sea views and easy beach access. New addition to a beautiful hundred year old traditional house with expansive outdoor spaces.

Perfect summer living for a couple. In the historic core of Santa Luzia, steps from the beach ferry and on a calm residential, cobblestoned street.

This rental is for a large apartment with indoor/outdoor living spaces and a private entrance. Everything is new and expansive with +13 foot ceilings (4m). Apartment is approximately 750 square feet (~70 sm) with ~1000SF (~90sm) of terraces and outdoor space.

Max occupancy: two adults
No smoking or pets

The space

This apartment is a new and tasteful addition to a hundred year old, traditional and ornate facade house. The bedroom is completely enclosed and the kitchen and living areas are covered but open air. If needed, new large glass sliding doors can be closed to keep out wind while enjoying the view.

Special features include a partially open air kitchen, gourmet stainless steel BBQ and custom-created tile (azulejo) throughout.

This is an apartment built onto a traditional, standalone village home. The ground floor home will be unoccupied whenever the apartment is rented and guests will have exclusive and private use of all the property's outdoor spaces and the apartment during their stay.

Guest access

Guests have exclusive and private access to all outdoor areas of the home, in addition to the studio apartment.

These include:
Ground Floor Courtyard: Inner courtyard with heated beach shower
Mid-level Terrace: Sun terrace in front of the covered living area with hammock.
Upper-level Terrace: Very large terrace with lagoon, sea, mountain and town rooftop views. Lounge chairs.

Please note the home does have stairs ( see pictures) and the studio apartment is on the mid-level.

Other things to note

Central location:
- Beach ferry: 5 minute walk to Terra Estreita Beach ferry
- Waterfront restaurants: 2 minute walk
- Barril Beach: 10 minute bike ride or 30 minute stroll on new walking path
- Tavira: 10 minute drive to historic center

About the town:
Santa Luzia is a calm fisherman village with award winning beaches and easy access to beautiful historic Tavira. The town sits on the Ria Formosa Natural Park, a lagoon and barrier island preserve rich in biodiversity and a birdwatcher's paradise. Come here to enjoy long dune beaches, relax and eat well. This is the other Algarve.

Map Pin Location: Please note that system map incorrectly places the house location on the beach side barrier island. This is incorrect-- no construction is allowed on the beach island. This property is in the historic core of Santa Luzia and is on the 'second line' of homes- the shortest distance from the waterfront without having to be directly next to the restaurants and waterfront foot traffic.
