Casa do Mercado

## Space

The lovely 1 bed, 2 bath apartment is located in the old town of Olhão, with the balcony overlooking a lively square and the waterfront literally around the corner. The house has double glazed windows all around that let in lots of light.

Even though the apartment is located in a traditional building, the owners have completely renovated it, creating a modern and bright space that is tastefully decorated. The apartment is completely private and you have access to 1 bedroom with large double bed, 2 bathrooms (1 ensuite), a small lounge and an open plan, fully equipped kitchen with high quality appliances. The bedroom is equipped with A/C, other rooms can be sufficiently aired and room fans are available.

## Neighborhood

Olhão is located next to Faro. It has a lovely and lively old center with a rich history of traditional Portuguese culture. From here you can easily explore both the east, west and inland Algarve but Olhão is perhaps most famous as the access point to the beautiful and peaceful islands of Armona and Culatra by ferry. There are public and private ferry options available and they are located just a couple of minutes walking from the apartment.

Due to the central location, you will have lots of shops, restaurants and bars to choose from in close vicinity of the apartment. A large supermarket is located at less than 5 minutes walking.

## Transit

You can easily get around on foot or use public transport or a taxi/uber to travel around. If you wish to explore the larger Algarve area, a hire car is recommended. Parking in old town Olhão is for free in most places, except along the waterfront. It can be challenging to find it but usually there will be a spot available close to the apartment. A large paid parking area at a nearby hotel is a good alternative for those who don't feel comfortable navigating the old town streets.
