Apartment Baixa Marina
## Space
Our apartment is located in a condominium right behind the waterfront on the west-side of Olhão with views over the waterfront and ocean from your private balcony as well as the roof terrace with pool!
The apartment is very spacious and fully equipped to offer you the best possible family holiday. It has 2 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms (1 en-suite), a fully equipped kitchen and lounge/dining room with large balcony overlooking a quiet residential street as well as the waterfront and ocean. The apartment has lots of light and is comfortably furnished. All rooms are equipped with A/C.
The neighbourhood is residential and quiet but just a few steps away from an amazing selection of restaurants, bars and shops both along the waterfront in front of our building as in the traditional town center just minutes away. This makes it the perfect getaway for families and adults who want to enjoy a relaxing holiday.
## Access
★ Private apartment with spacious balcony ★ Modern comfort with ocean views ★ Fully equipped kitchen ★ Wifi and TV ★ Sheets and towels are provided ★ A/C in all rooms
➤ We usually welcome families with children or responsible adults because the apartment is part of a quiet condominium with lots of residential owners. ➤ Parties and other disturbances are not accepted. Other apartments in the building are occupied by long-term residents. Please respect them, no noise - especially not at night. Please get in touch with us before booking if you’re unsure if you fit this profile, so we can see whether this accommodation fits your travel plans.

## 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. Private ferries can be taken directly in front of the apartment while the public ferries are just about 10 minutes walking away in the main harbour.
## 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. You can park for free in front of the apartment. There are no reserved spaces but normally there is plenty of space.

Die Wohnung hat uns gut gefallen, tolle Umgebung, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Die Nespresso Maschine fanden wir nicht sehr nachhaltig, eine Kaffeemaschine wäre schöner gewesen. Dennoch haben wir unseren Aufenthalt genossen

Tolle Ferienwohnung
Eine sehr schöne Ferienwohnung in guter Lage von Olhão. Die Übergabe der Wohnung war eher bedürftig. Die Dame hat uns 2 Std. vor dem ursprünglichen Termin angerufen und erwartet, dass wir sofort vor Ort sind
