Five* Apartment with Beautiful Sea Views from the Balcony

We offer a deluxe 3 bedroom / 2 bathroom / 3 toilet apartment in Village Marina, Olhao, Eastern Algarve, next to the 5 star ‘Real Marina’ hotel (WIFI, spa and gym available). Our apartment looks out over the waterfront and marina and is only a few minutes’ walk from the old town, the famous fish/vegetable markets and the ferries out to the Islands of Armona, Culatra, and Farol, known for their miles of seemingly endless white sandy beaches. Situated only 16km east of Faro airport it is a very short drive to your holiday home. The spacious well-appointed accommodation is fitted out to an exceptionally high standard throughout, including DVD, satellite TV (English language channels), washing machine/dryer, dishwasher and central vacuming system. Enjoy lounging on the large west facing terrace while watching the sun go down over Faro. The roof-top pool area offers uninterrupted sunshine along with social and leisure spaces which enjoy amazing views of the Reserva Natural da Ria Formosa. We are more than happy if you wanted to book with us direct.

A really wonderful apartment in Olhao
We arrived in Olhao and met Maria for the key exchange. She was very nice and quickly showed us around the apartment to familiarize us. The apartment is well stocked with everything you"ll need for your stay. The location gives you a view of the Rio Formosa, In the afternoon you get the warmth of the sun. We spend many hours on the rooftop terrace by the pool to enjoy the sun and relax. The location of the apartment is excellent and its a short stroll to the restaurants and Market. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it if your coming to the Algarve area

Wonderful fortnight in Olhao
What a gorgeous apartment to stay in during the winter months. It has a perfect view out over the salt lakes towards the sunset from the balcony. We stayed for 2 weeks over Christmas and New Year, with family staying nearby in two other apartments in the same complex. Our flat was the nicest by far, its kitchen was very well equipped and we had plenty of space to host Christmas dinner and other meals for 8 adults and a child. I was very pleased with the choice of flat. Checking in was very easy with Eduarda Barbara's help (the property agent) and the flat was spotless when we arrived. We loved the en suite master bedroom, and the second double bedroom is also a lovely room. We'll definitely return to Olhao and hope to stay here again.

Wonderful Olhao Apartment
From excellent communication with the owner by email to a professional and very helpful welcome on arrival, we were so impressed. The apartment is large, immaculate, spotless, with everything you could possibly need. The spacious balcony looks over the salt pans towards the sea and coastline towards Faro. The rooftop plunge pool is amazing for views, cleanliness and tranquility. The beds were very comfortable and linen, towels all fresh. Two bathrooms and another toilet! The kitchen is so well stocked - games, books, wifi, dvds (couldn't get the dvd player to work but weren't worried enough to sort it out). Olhao is a gem. Fabulous restaurants, very few tourists, great marina and harbour, superb fish, fruit, veg market, lovely streets to wander through with cafes and boats to the island beaches. We can't thank the owners and agent enough for such an amazing and stress free holiday accommodation. Thank you.

Absolutely Fab
We recently returned from a week in Olhao, based on the recommendation of some friends. The choice of the accommodation was brilliant. For us the benefit is the ideal location. Only 20 mins from the airport and easy to reach by both car or taxi. Good parking. You are then central to explore Portugal and some of its beautiful islands. The apartment was very spacious and decorated/furnished to a high standard. We have always stayed previously in the 5 * Sao Rafeal Hotel but found this apartment even better than that. The owners are very accomodating and cater for all you requirements. Their attention to detail in the apartment is spot on, from the crisp white linen sheets, soft towels to all the essentials for a great picnic on the beach. The view from the apartment overlooks the sea, has a beautiful sunset and nature reserve opposite. Would highly recommend the apartment and would definitely return.

Fantastic apartment and location in the amazing Ria Formosa
Having breakfast on the balcony watching the flamingoes circling over the marshes in front of you is something else. At high tide the mud flats and marsh are covered but at low tide a whole different world comes to life. Cranes, storks and many wading birds are busy feeding. The local fisherman and women are busy harvesting the cockles and razor clams. We loved taking the frequent ferries out to the islands. Loved Culatra and Farol. Came back on the last ferry as the sun was setting. You can always get a water taxi back if you miss the last ferry. Olhao has its own charm. It's a relaxed place with delicious restaurants at reasonable prices. The old town is interesting to explore. We didn't have a car and were able to walk to ferries or the train station to go further exploring. The best thing we did was the Dolphin Watching out at sea. The children loved the roof top pool and used it every day. The apartment was well equipped and spacious and we felt at home staying here.

Great stay in the Algarve!
We had a great stay in this spacious apartment. Nice balcony overlooking the sea and the salt mining area. Two and a half bathrooms, three bedrooms and large living room, perfect for our family of five. The town of Olhão is still quiet and very cosy. Two remarks (which the owner can't do anything about): - It gets really hot in the kitchen due to the fact that for some strange reason it has no blinds (all other windows have them). Best to let it air out as much as possible. - The large parking area seems to attract a lot of youth with noisy cars in the weekend. Would recommend for everyone looking for a good stay in the beautiful town of Olhão!

Fantastisk leilighet i rolig område
Vi storkoste oss i den flotte leiligheten! Leiligheten var større enn forventet, og hadde alt en trengte for et fint opphold. Veldig god beliggenhet med kort avstand til butikker og restauranter. Det var et veldig stille område. Å reise ut til øya Armona var helt magisk. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake!

Ideale locatie met mooi uitzicht
We hebben een heerlijke week gehad. Appartement was erg goed, fijne bedden en airco in alle kamers. Appartement ligt heel dicht bij de Marina, dus je steekt de weg over en neemt de boot naar een van de eilanden. Wij hadden gekozen voor Farol, heerlijke ligbedden, top beachbar en prachtig helder water.

Fantastic !
Apartment Real Marina is fantastic! Tastefully decorated; well rested; perfect WiFi; good beds and a lovely terrace. The apartment is located on the outskirts of Olhao. Supermarkets and other necessary facilities can be found a short distance away and the center of Olhao is only a 15-minute walk away. Furthermore, Olhao is centrally located for discovering the east coast of the Algarve. The communication, information and contact with the owner is smooth and responds quite immediately. The reception/contact with the local representation Mrs. Eduarda, was cordial and pleasant. All in all, we really enjoyed our two-week holiday in Olhao. Highly recommended! Alexander NL

Very satisfied
Having stayed at similar apartments over the years, we knew what to expect from this apartment but were very pleased with not just the lovely place itself but also the perfect view from the large balcony. We had the Ria Formosa in front of us with its resident flamingos plus it was only a very short walk to the supermarket and to the new marina. We definitely recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to stay in Olhao.
