This Moorish townhouse toes the line between traditional charm and modern style, nestled in the heart of Olhão. Enjoy great views of the surrounding town from the rooftop terrace, whether you're cooling off in the waters of the private pool, rinsing off in the outdoor shower or gathering in the outdoor seating area and letting the drinks flow with the conversation. The first-floor living area and terrace mean enjoying every meal alfresco if you like, and large glass doors mean the sunlight can fill the indoors during the day – even if you're getting some last-minute work finished remotely or gathering on the couch to watch a movie, you'll still be able to appreciate the beaming Portuguese sunshine.

Olhão is a historic town, once a small fishing village and now the largest fishing port in the Algarve region. You'll find yourself just a short stroll to many nearby shops if you're looking for essentials, and cafes and restaurants if you're searching for a bite to eat. Visit the famous fish market and reach the beaches of Ilha da Culatra and Ilha da Armona by ferry and enjoy a family day out.
