Travelled with family
Leider musste uns der Eigentümer aufgrund mangelnder Organisation an einen anderen Ort verlegen, sodass wir weder Gutes noch Schlechtes über den angegebenen Ort schreiben können. Der Eigentümer war sehr freundlich und hat uns in einem anderen, geeigneten Apartment untergebracht und die Differenz erstattet ... alle waren glücklich und zufrieden.

Wir wurden von Lucy herzlich mit einem Begrüssungs Geschenkkorb enpfangen. Im Haus war viel mehr als alles notwendige vorhanden. Wir genossen am Abend die Dachterasse. Und brauchten die Klima nur 10minuten um das Haus abends zu kühlen. Da wir Ferien hatten, besuchten wir die tollen Restaurants in Olhão (Favorit O Ignacio) machten Tagesausflüge zu den 3 Inseln, & Barril Tavira.
Stand war leer, wenig Touristen. Nur teilweise Liegestühle zu mieten
Sonnenuntergang mit Odyses, jederzeit wieder mit Führer Filipe
Cataplana, Arroz Marisco etc im Hafen bei der Markthalle hat es sehr gute, tolle gute Restaurantes
Strand hat viele Muscheln
