This trip is all about everyday magic.
Plan on terraces to relax in bedrooms to dream in and a rooftop pool to swim in a gorgeous hotel in a seaside city of Olhao. We will be staying in the heart of this authentic fishing town in the unspoiled eastern Algarve. The Algarve is one of the few areas in Europe to enjoy 300 days of sunshine per year and it’s right on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean!
Traveling solo?
Perfect! We will match you with a compatible solo traveler with whom you are comfortable. Private accommodations may be available at an additional cost.
The location
Getting lost in the twisted network of cobbled streets along the way is part of the fun. There is usually a surprise or two to enjoy along the way. When you get to the sea front, there are the fabulous markets at the water’s edge (fish to the right, fresh fruit/veg & meats to the left) and a host of restaurants, cafes and bars to relax in along the way.
There are four stunning Islands (Armona, Culatra, Farol or Deserta) an easy boat ride away. They each have a distinct feel but each one has beautiful unspoilt beaches, and wonderful low key restaurants/beach bars where you will happily while away the day. The islands are easy to get to, you can either take a small ferry which runs multiple times per day or a river taxi. They all go from the same place located less than a mile from the waterfront by the market.
If you rent a car, a host of wonderful places can be reached within a 30 minute drive. If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, Seville is only two hours away.
