Villa Laranja Region: Carvoeiro Sleeps: 10 Villa Laranja Region: Carvoeiro Sleeps: 10 Overview Just 500m away from one of Portugal’s (if not the world’s) most beautiful beaches, Praia da Marinha, Villa Laranja is both well equipped and enviably located. This magnificent 4-bedroom villa sits in its peaceful gardens filled with almond and fig trees and offers the use of a private 7m x 4m swimming pool. Situated on a hilltop 8km from the centre of Carvoeiro, Villa Laranja is ideal for exploring the area’s beaches and caves. It offers beautiful sea views and plenty of outdoor space, with a covered dining area and barbecue, large lawns and a spacious pool terrace with sun loungers. You can access the split-level, open-plan living area directly from the terrace, which itself offers lots of seating. Inside, you have a TV and DVD, a wood- burning stove, a dining table and chairs and a kitchen. This is equipped with a fridge freezer, dishwasher, and smaller appliances like a coffee machine, kettle and toaster. The villa includes four bedrooms which offer flexibility to configure them as needed. Two of the bedrooms have twin beds, and the other two have three single beds. There’s also an additional room with a small sofa-bed and three bathrooms. All of the bedrooms are made even more comfortable with air- conditioning, the use of which is included. Nearby Carvoeiro is a popular resort with excellent amenities. It’s great for dining, with recommended restaurants, and also for nightlife – there are numerous bars and clubs, both lively and laid-back, to discover. Its beaches are perhaps the main reason to visit, including centrally-located Praia do Carvalho, Praia de Benagil and the beautiful Praia da Marinha. Water- sports lovers will particularly enjoy the beautiful surroundings, but if you want to enjoy the views, you can do so in style from the clifftop Carvoeiro Boardwalk. Page 1 The larger city of Portimão is only 10km away, with Lagoa and picturesque Silves not far north. You could also head to the mountains of Monchique or pretty Alvor, not far from Portimão.

There are 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and it can accommodate up to 10 people Interior - Two twin bedrooms - Two bedrooms with three single beds - Three bathrooms - Living & dining room - Fully equipped kitchen - Access to the patio & pool area Exterior - Swimming pool (7x4m) - Outdoor dining & lounge area - Large patio & garden area - Sun loungers - Covered terrace - BBQ area Page 3 Location & Local Information With some of the most stunning beaches on the Algarve in the vicinity, Carvoeiro is a town well worth discovering. It has developed a compelling offer to visitors, with a good range of restaurants, bars and amenities amongst the traditional whitewashed buildings of its centre, and beautiful sightseeing opportunities in all directions. Rugged cliff and secluded coves give the beaches of Carvoeiro plenty of character, with unusual rock formations that have become attractions themselves. You can take a boat trip to see the caves of Praia de Benagil, where a circular ‘eye’ opening gives sight of a small beach hidden inside. Praia da Marinha, a short distance east, is considered to be one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, with incredibly transparent waters, and Praia da Carvoeiro, closest to the town itself, is a charming spot too. Along the clifftop, you can admire Carvoeiro’s enviable surroundings from the boardwalk – many of the caves along the coast are visible from this vantage point. Another notable sight is the beautiful Alfanzina Lighthouse, and you may also come across the A Boneca restaurant. While there are many places to eat in Carvoeiro, not all can boast the incredible location of this one, amongst the rocks and caves, giving it an unrivalled ocean view. South of mountainous Monchique, at around 50 minutes’ drive from Faro Airport, Carvoeiro enjoys a great location west of that city. Well clear of the hedonism of the Albufeira strip, the resort has beautiful Portimão 10km away, with its stunning marina and excellent shopping facilities, and golf courses and theme parks close by. You may also be tempted to take to the water in Carvoeiro, with windsurfing, kayaking and sailing all possibilities. Lively bars and nightlife are plentiful, but if you would rather chill out, the cool vibes of Manoel’s Jazz Club could well entice you.

  • Unsere Strände in Der Algarve
    Unsere Strände in der Algarve An der Algarve finden Urlauber alles, was man zu einem besonderen Strandurlaub braucht. Der Atlantik lockt mit fantastischen Wellen, die Surfer das ganze Jahr über an. Besonders beliebt ist dafür die Region um Aljezur, denn dort können die spektakulären Wellen das ganze Jahr über geritten werden. Wer weiche Sandstrände bevorzugt, wird am ehesten an der Küste zwischen spanischer Grenze und Faro fündig. Die Vielfalt der Region lockt aber auch Abenteuer-Urlauber und Sonnenhungrige an. Egal, ob nun Erholung oder Action angesagt ist, hier werden alle gleichermaßen glücklich. Bei 300 Sonnentagen im Jahr ist das auch kein Wunder. Die Südküste der Algarve teilt sich in zwei Abschnitte: An der Westküste finden Sie die schroffen Felswände wie in Sagres und die malerischen Buchten. Teilweise sind sie ganz versteckt und nur schwer zu erreichen. Aber ein Besuch lohnt sich garantiert. An der östlichen Küste befinden sich hingegen die kilometerlangen und flachen Sandstrände. Schauen Sie selbst was Sie in Portugal entdecken möchten. Es gibt so viel zu sehen und so viele Strände, dass wir nun einige von der spanischen Grenze bis nach Odeceixe aufgelistet und beschrieben haben: Praia do Santo António: Nur noch der Fluss Rio Guadiana trennt Praia do Santo António von Spanien. Hier findet ihr ein Idyll, an dem ihr mit der puren Natur in Kontakt kommen könnt. Der kilometerlange Strand wird von einem grünen Dünenwald umgeben und verleiht diesem Ort ein zauberhaftes Ambiente. Obwohl der Strand nicht sehr touristisch ist, findet ihr hier eine Bar und einen Wassersportanbieter. Praia de Monte Gordo: In den Sommermonaten ist am weitläufigen Strand richtig viel los, dann strömen zahlreiche Familien aus Portugal und Spanien hierher, um ihre Sommerferien am milden Atlantik zu verbringen.

  • Algarve Brochure.Pdf
    You have probably heard about the Algarve. A friend may have told you about one of its magnificent beaches, maybe you’ve seen a report about its cuisine or perhaps you’ve picked up a brochure like this one before. But there is an Algarve that you haven’t seen, tasted or explored before: it’s the Algarve that the local people know and love. For almost three thousand years Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Greeks, Romans, Goths, Maghrebins and Mauritanians did what you do - they passed through the Algarve. Until, in 1249, the Al-Gharb (“the West”) was finally taken from the Islamic world by Sancho II, who took the title of King of Portugal and the Algarve. Since then, the pride shared by the inhabitants of the Algarve has compelled them to reveal their region’s greatest secrets to visitors – about their favourite beaches, hidden hamlets, natural walks and even recommending the best restaurants. Sun and Sea 2 Golf 8 Health and Wellness 14 Culture 20 Nature 26 Nautical Tourism 32 Sport 38 Meeting Industry 44 1 St. Vicent Lighthouse Beliche Beach Sun and Sea The Horizon as a meeting point 2 Barra da Armona - Olhão 4 Sun and Sea Let us reveal a secret: the word Algarve comes from the Arabic “Al Gharb”, meaning “West”, but if you’ve been here before you know that it could also mean sun and sea. The sun shines brightly in the Algarve for around 300 days a year, during spring and summer naturally, but in autumn and winter as well. The sea is always ready to welcome swimmers, surfers, body-boarders, divers, fishermen, yachtsmen, sailors and any other lovers of clear, warm waters.

  • Tours Around the Algarve
    BARLAVENTO BARLAVENTO Região de Turismo do Algarve SAGRES TOUR SAGRES SAGRES TOUR SAGRES The Algarve is the most westerly part of mainland Europe, the last harbouring place before entering the waters of the Atlantic, a region where cultures have mingled since time immemorial. Rotas & Caminhos do Algarve (Routes and Tours of the Algarve) aims to provide visitors with information to help them plan a stay full of powerful emotions, a passport to adventure, in which the magic of nature, excellent hospitality, the grandeur of the Algarve’s cultural heritage, but also those luxurious and cosmopolitan touches all come together. These will be tours which will lure you into different kinds of activity and adventure, on a challenge of discovery. The hundreds of beaches in the Algarve seduce people with their white sands and Atlantic waters, which sometimes surge in sheets of spray and sometimes break on the beaches in warm waves. These are places to relax during lively family holidays, places for high-energy sporting activity, or for quiet contemplation of romantic sunsets. Inland, there is unexplored countryside, with huge areas of nature reserves, where you can follow the majestic flight of eagles or the smooth gliding of the storks. Things that are always mentioned about the people of the Algarve are their hospitality and their prowess as story-tellers, that they are always ready to share experiences, and are open to CREDITS change and diversity. The simple sophistication of the cuisine, drawing inspiration from the sea and seasoned with herbs, still Property of the: Algarve Tourism Board; E-mail: [email protected]; Web: www.visitalgarve.pt; retains a Moorish flavour, in the same way as the traditional Head Office: Av.

Es gibt unzählige Aktivitäten, für diejenigen, die nicht untätig bleiben möchten: Surfen, Bodyboarden, Wasserski, Windsurfen, Kitesurfen, Paragliding, organisierte Bootstouren, Sportfischen, Tretboot oder Kajak fahren, am Ufer Beachball spielen, Sandburgen bauen oder einfach ein Buch lesen oder sich im Wasser des Atlantiks erfrischen. Dies alles ist möglich an unseren Stränden.

Certainly nothing that the region’s most fervent fans are not already aware of. They experience a constant stream of emotions, awakened by the fine sandy beaches, the scent of the sea air, the greenish-blue colour of the sea, the tiny inhabitants of the rock pools (such as crabs and starfish) and the larger ones in the waters along the shore (such as dolphins), the warm sun flooding the natural landscape with its golden rays and all the vast array of activities on offer at the beach. Holidaymakers are spoiled for choice here. You can go surfing, bodyboarding, water skiing, kitesurfing, parasailing or deep-sea fishing; there are organised boat trips, pedal boats and kayaks; you can play seaside racquet games, build gigantic sandcastles, read a book or simply soak in the refreshing waters of the Atlantic. All of these activities can be enjoyed on our beaches. And if you’re a dedicated beachgoer, you’re bound to have tried several, all of them offering safety and excellent services for summer holidaymakers. But being a fan of the Algarve’s beaches means more still: it means recognising that they are more inviting than any others for holidays in summer and walking in winter, as an alternative to the uplands of the serra.
