Overview
An Algarvian charming & recently totally refurbished town house, originally a fisherman's house, in the old part of Albufeira and on a typical Portuguese cobbled street, the property boasts fantastic & uninterrupted front line views of the Ocean from all three floors.
This town house, known to us as Casa Portuguesa, is spacious & modern with open windows to a large terrace directly overlooking the Ocean. The outdoor terrace has a table for 8 persons, a large umbrella with a 3 meter diameter, 6 sun loungers and a built in BBQ.
The property has been fitted with comfortable & modern furniture that serves perfectly to accommodate holiday makers. No detail has been spared.
On the ground floor is the spacious kitchen complete with a fridge/freezer, electric hob & oven, microwave, toaster & washing machine. All the basic necessities are available including cutlery, serving plates, glasses, pots & pans etc.
Also on the ground floor is a complete bathroom consisting of a shower, toilet & sink as well as a large & spacious sitting/dining room complete with a large screen TV, 32 channels and WIFI internet.
Each floor has an air conditioning unit.
The main area of the first floor is divided into a double bed bedroom and sitting room with a fireplace. The sitting room is spacious & has a comfortable seating area overlooking the ocean. The large glass windows lead to a balcony also overlooking the Ocean.
There is also a double bed bedroom on the first floor facing the street (only this bedroom and the kitchen have windows on the street side, the other rooms all overlook the ocean), which can sometimes be noisy with people walking past to go to the beach or to town.
There is a full spacious bathroom consisting of a shower/bathtub, wash basin & toilet also on the first floor.
On the second floor is the en-suite master bedroom with a double bed. It has a terrace with stunning views of the ocean. Wake up to the magnificent uninterrupted view of the ocean right in front of you from your bed.
The en-suite bathroom area has a dressing area, a shower, toilet & jaccuzzi with 2 hand basins all also overlooking the ocean.
On the staircase from the first to the second floor is a space which we used to put a single bed.
All windows & terrace doors have mosquito nets.
Available for renters are a baby kit consisting of a baby bed, playpen and high chair.
The surrounding area has many cafes & resturants to cater for all tastes. On the same street is an excellent Indian restaurant, a typical Portuguese cafe and a cafe that serves light lunches and drinks on a terrace overlooking the ocean. Walk towards the town center, about 4 minutes walk away and the food/drink options are unlimited.
One corner supermarket is one or two minutes walk away and a larger supermarket with a variety of international products is situated within walking distance - it is an uphill walk that takes about 5-7 minutes.
The fantastic stretch of sandy beach is less than a 1 minute walk away & with a glass elevator to reach it.
We hope you choose our property for your coming vacation.

This is a fantastic holiday house in a magical location. The views are utterly divine from every aspect. Prepare to be enchanted. Dreamy sailing yachts bobbing on that endless majestic ocean all day, mysterious coves, distant laughs of happy holiday makers, while at night under under the full moon you can watch the glittering lights of the fishing boats at work. We were very happy here. The house is elegant and smart. Cute and friendly cocktail bar nearby, friendly restaurants a few minutes walk... sea shore just a stroll to the list and you can have a glorious dip is the refreshing Atlantic. We loved it. All our plans to go touring were forgotten. This location has everything.
Thanks for the wonderful stay. The house is much better than the pictures and you and Lesley were of great help whenever we needed anything. The location is probably the best in South Portugal. If you have to travel to nearby attractions/cities, the maximum travel time is 45 minutes. The views from the house are beautiful. A great value for money
Casa Portuguesa it's a wonderful place to stay!! really recommended
Spent five days at the beginning of August this year. Casa Portuguesa was wonderful! Centrally located.. 2 minute walk to the beach, five minute walk to the supermarket, 8 minute walk to the center of town. We loved the home. Everything worked. The air conditioner and washing machine worked perfectly! The views from the terrace are amazing, especially at night!! Even parking was not difficult to find within a 100 yard radius each night. I would go back in a heartbeat! Thank you!!
First: Unbelieviable view to the ocean on the front side! Perfectly situated! on the front a perfect view to the ocean and very quiet for a good sleep, and backwards near to the town, a supermarket and bars are very close. This side is a little louder at night but still comfortable. The beach and town are great for families or couples. we had the best time here and really want to come back!! thank you Turzain for the great communication and care of us.
Perfect for a couple with teenagers very good location, view , beach just under, no parking problem, just stroll down to the restaurants, super market close by we loved it !
Supreme view to the ocean. The house is perfectly located, close to the beach and city center although not noisy. Appliances are outdated but operating smoothly, we had some issues with plumbing but everything was solved very quickly. What we were laking was some simple things, there was just 2 knives, no cutting board as well we bought and left in the house beach umbrella, because it is impossible to cary it on plane. All in all - everything is great. Supreme vacation house in perfect location.
Words can not describe how amazingly beautiful and perfect this home was. My family and I felt like we were in paradise. The house looks 10x better than the pictures (and that's saying something because the pictures attract you right away), the view of the ocean was absolutely breath taking, the entire house was clean and ready to go when we arrived, the rooms were perfect and comfortable, the bathrooms were very clean, the kitchen was packed with all the essentials and my family and I definitely had to take advantage of the BBQ that was set up outside. The area was WONDERFUL, small streets like right out of a movie, cafe as soon as you opened the main door, and to right was where you walked to go to the beach which was perfect within it self. A couple of restaurants and cafes near the beach but if you keep walking passed the beach and down to the left there are many many many restaurants, bars, cafes and the CUTEST little shops! There are a couple of little shops near the house and a supermarket about a 5 minute walk away.The week that we spent at the house was absolutely perfect, my family and I hope to go back in the future. Thank you so much for having us, if I could give this home more than 5 stars I would!!!!!!!!
We have had a great time and enjoyed it very much. Great views and nice living space. Good location.
We stayed for 5 days in the house and very much enjoyed it. We were warmly welcomed upon arrival in Albufeira - even while it was a bank holiday! The house was clean and fully equipped - even a washing machine! The location is perfect - very close to the inner city center (500m walk) but far enough for a quiet evening on the outside terras, enjoying a wonderfulp view over the ocean.
