About this property

Large 2 Bedroom, Frontline Apartment with Magnificent Views Of The Ria Formosa

We made a conscious effort to ensure that the apartment is a 'home away from home' - because to us, that's what it is. We have included extras that we would want from a holiday home - , radio, basic foods, books, DVDs, board games, beach towels, to name but a few. We want our guests to be able to relax, cook in if they want, watch TV or a DVD and chill out. We have installed an IPTV package to ensure you don't miss your favourite British TV programmes. This package also gives you access to unlimited broadband. The property is an extremely big 2 bedroom apartment (120 metres) with 2 bathrooms, so can easily accommodate 5 people comfortably. There is a beautiful private roof terrace, ideal for al fresco dining, as well as a balcony off the living room, with beautiful sea views, The apartment is ideally located, just a 3 minute walk from the beach and restaurants. There is no need to hire a car, as the train station is a 2 minute walk and travels the length of the Algarve as well as linking to Spain.

Lovely condo and property. Good communication that considered our travelling connections, thank you! We had a mishap when we were leaving by locking a backpack in the condo. The owner worked hard to help us out. Thanks again 😊

Já conhecíamos o empreendimento, sendo esta a 3 casa no mesmo. Dentro das expectativas. Houve uma mudança de toalhas a meio da estadia, o que foi agradável, mas ao mesmo tempo ficamos surpreendidos por entrarem na nossa casa sem aviso prévio. De resto tudo foi como o esperado. há no entanto algumas coisas que deverão ser alvo de manutenção num futuro próximo, para não se degradarem. Obrigado por tudo

A lovely apartment
The apartment is clean. The bed was comfortable. The sheets were soft. There was a small view from the porch and a large view from the roof top terrace. Conveniently located. Near shops, restaurants and the beach. Since it was during Covid, we had to let ourselves in. The owner graciously helped us from Ireland.

About the host

Hosted by Helen Connolly

Host profile image
Helen and Andrew are from Dublin, and bought their apartment in 2009. They had always dreamt of having a place by the sea and although they knew central Algarve well, they had never been further east than Faro. Neighbours introduced them to Fuseta, a Portuguese village on the eastern coast of the Algarve with spectacular views of the Ria Formosa lagoon. They fell in love with the area , so much so that they got married in nearby Tavira two years later! They have been to the area numerous times since 2009 and have written a detailed information pack on the area - activities , daytrips , best places to eat etc. This is updated after every trip and is furnished to all guests .

Why they chose this property

When we first came to Fuseta it felt like stepping back in time. The area is very unspoilt and the village is an old fashioned, traditional fishing village where everyone knows everyone. The locals speak just enough English to get by, but they welcome tourists with open arms. They work mostly in restaurants or in the fishing trade and are very family oriented. The beaches are very beautiful and the restaurants serve delicious food at a fraction of what it costs anywhere else on the Algarve. And, of course, there’s guaranteed sunshine from mid April through to mid October! All in all , a lovely, laid back holiday destination.

What makes this property unique

The amazing beaches are amongst the biggest attractions in the area. They have plenty of facilities like sun beds, restaurants and toilets, and are incredibly unspoilt, uncrowded and perfect for long walks and water sports. The area is characterised by ‘sandspit’ beaches, meaning they are separated from the mainland by a lagoon and have to be reached by a ferry boat or water taxi.

A 10 minute drive from Fuseta is Barril Beach which is accessed by a little locomotive train. The area used to be a tuna village and the buildings are still standing but have now been converted into cafés, restaurants, shops and other facilities for tourists. A more romantic alternative is to get a water taxi from Fuzeta to a nearby deserted beach.
