If you are driving, free street parking is available on Rua Bombeiros Voluntários and Rua Salgueiro Maia. Both of these areas are just a few minutes walk from the apartment. If you have luggage, drive to the apartment first to unload. Pull up in front of the building, put your hazard lights on and take your luggage up to the apartment. Rua Bombeiros Voluntários is up the hill to the right.
Welcome to my home in the beautiful Algarve. My love of travel and discovering different cultures eventually led me to make Portugal my home. After exploring many parts of the world, I fell in love with the Algarve's unique combination of spectacular coastline, charming towns, outstanding food and wine, and relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. As a passionate traveller myself, I've been staying in holiday homes for many years and understand what makes a stay truly memorable. I created this accommodation with the same care and attention to detail that I appreciate when I travel—comfortable, well-equipped, welcoming, and designed to help guests feel at home from the moment they arrive. I m always happy to share our local knowledge and recommendations, whether you're looking for the Algarve's most beautiful beaches, authentic local markets, exceptional restaurants, scenic walking trails, cultural events, or hidden gems away from the crowds. Whether you're visiting for remote working, a relaxing winter holiday, an active getaway, or simply to experience the best of southern Portugal, I hope you'll enjoy everything this wonderful region has to offer and leave with memories that inspire you to return.

Every time you rent through Flatio, you're automatically covered by our StayProtection package.
By booking this property, you'll also enjoy extended protection in the form of Stay Benefits - a unique offering backed by AXA! Here's what such packaging includes:
Once you send a booking request, the host is notified that you are interested in their listing. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your booking.
Hosts are mainly interested in the profile of their guest. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your booking will more likely get approved.
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every listing. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the hosts on Flatio.
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the host and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
In the event that you move in and the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio, let us know as soon as possible!
If the conditions for the withdrawal are met and the host can't fix the issue immediately, you have the option to withdraw from the lease agreement with a full refund. We'll also actively help you find an alternative accommodation and remain by your side until everything is fully resolved.
You can read the conditions and all details about our Move-in Guarantee in this article of our Help Center.
How you can cancel a booking varies depending on what stage the booking is in.
Is your booking request still waiting for host approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your booking request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the booking before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the host accepts your booking, the property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved booking and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your booking, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
