    The view is amazing, the apartment is very big, is close to basically everything in the area such as restaurants, a small mini market, and the ferry for Faro city.

Apartments on the beach by the sea, on the beautiful peninsula of Faro Beach, part of the Ria Formosa Natural Park, where on the one hand, we can find the Ria Formosa and the Atlantic Ocean on the other, fully equipped and recently refurbished in a modern way. Has direct access to the sand, 5 steps away, where you can enjoy a pleasant vacation with family or friends and have the opportunity to live near the sea where you will find the perfect tranquility with this Beach House. You will not find better location on the beach of Faro. Don't worry with towels and sheets. You will find everything you need. You can park your car in the private parking and then you don't need it anymore because it has a mini market, restaurants, bars and nautical centre, all in an area of 60 meters, the pier to take the boat to the city centre, is 15 meters away (a 25-minute trip, a beautiful ride in Ria Formosa).And all this at 4 km from the airport and 7 km from the city of Faro.
