The Algarve / East Algarve region
The Algarve is the most sunniest place in Europe with 3000 hrs of sun each year. There are miles of unspoilt golden sandy beaches. Flight time to Faro direct from UK is approx 2.15 hrs and Fuseta is 30-35 mins drive from airport. The Portuguese are warm and very helpful people and many can speak English.

Fuseta is a small town in the Ria Formosa in the eastern Algarve only 20 kms from Faro. Fuseta was originally a collection of small huts kept to store tools for fishing boats and now has developed but is still very traditional and touristic. The town is known for its quaint cubed houses with their terraces and interesting chimneys.

Fuseta has two beaches within walking distance of the apartment: a small beach on the lagoon in the town itself and a ocean beach is just across the lagoon on the Island of Armona (short, cheap and frequent ferry ride). The Ocean beach extends for miles so those seeking more peace and privacy can walk 10 minutes to have the beach almost to themselves! Spend the day here and relax in the restaurant, bars and cafes.

Faro, the capital of the Algarve is a great place to visit for its history, particularly attractive is the old part of the city still surrounded by the Roman walls. It is the home to the city's archaeological museum. The 'Golden' church contains the Macabre Spectacle of a chapel lined with the bones of 1,200 monks!

Olhão is a busy modern town with a gem of a waterfront. Its fishing port is the most important in the Eastern Algarve and its fish market is the biggest. Has many shops, restaurants and an entire summer festival devoted to sea food. You can take boats to the island villages and beaches of Armona, Culatra and Farol - all great day trips.

Tavira, 20 minutes away by car is a wonderful mix of the unexpected and the unusual. You will find a 13th century castle, the old gate of the city, a Camera Obscura, a magnificent Roman bridge, a beautiful garden with bandstand, and the old market hall which has been converted into a cafe/restaurant and craft shops area. There are many churches for which Tavira is famous. The Barril beach, Monte Gordo or Monta Rota are often voted as the best beaches.

There are water parks to the west, zoo marine where you can swim with the dolphins and go carting all within 55 mins drive.

Loved this modern, top floor apartment & roof terrace. Exceptional views. Train station 8 mins walk & local mini supermarket 2 mins more. No buses, but the train went all along the Algarve, to Lagos in the west, to St, Antonio Real Villa to the border with Spain. Loved Fuseta, too.Felt naturally rural, not touristy. Beach accessible, no need for a water taxi. So pleased that I chose this apartment & area. There is a shared pool & bar/ restaurant in the small complex, which was closed. Maybe was too early in the season?

This apartment is the perfect location in the Algarve Region of Portugal. Easy to take day trips to beautiful locations in the Algarve. Located within easy walking distance of all the features you will want to see in Fuseta. Marta, the owner, is always available and gives excellent advice on grocery stores, restaurants, etc. Very helpful. The apartment has everything that you could need.

This was our second visit to the apartment and once again we found everything to be perfect. The rooftop has to be experienced at least once in a lifetime - we loved bringing fresh produce from the local market back and bbqing on it. We also watched the sun rise over the sea and set over the land each day, often from the hot tub. There are two ways to access the roof, which we appreciated for our 5 year old. She also loved the bunk beds. The front balcony is a superb sun trap during the day, and everything indoors more than met our expectations and our needs. We were able to access the beautiful swimming pool with inbuilt waterfall across the road whenever we liked, and it was a very short walk into the fishing village of Fuseta with its many excellent cafes and restaurants. It is a lovely traditional part of Portugal, easy to reach from Faro airport and with easy public transport and taxi access to the rest of the Algarve. Last but certainly not least, I would like to thank Marta our host for making everything so straightforward and easy for us during our stay. From answering questions immediately to offering flexibility with our check out time, Marta’s hospitality was greatly appreciated by the 3 of us, and we can’t wait to come back.

The apartment is in a great location with unrivalled views, and Fuseta is a lovely area to visit. It is a 15 min walk into town / to the beach, and there is a fabulous tapas restaurant/ bar across the road. I'm sure this was a 5 star apartment a couple of years ago but we felt it is in need of a bit of TLC and maintenance. The facilities are good but a bit run down. We struggled with 4 adults and bunk beds; 2 singles would be much better. Given all of this we would still absolutely return to the apartment but as 2 adults.

Great location, everything near by. Great communication with the owner. Sunsets on the roof in the hot-tub were priceless. Thank you

Returned to Marta's lovely apartment in May this year. The apartment is well equipped and comfortable with lovely views from the panoramic balcony. The season is just beginning, so not too busy. We now know where everything is, so felt very at home. We used the local train to visit Tavira , Olhao and across to Spain. We can't wait to return!
