About this property

Cozy studio in the garden with a terrace

  • In the heart of the Algarve, in Porches/Armacao de Pera, this studio is located in a villa on a well-maintained plot with palm trees, exotic plants, and flowers. The property is located in a residential area directly on the busy connecting road (with seasonal traffic) from Porches to Armacao de Pera. This road leads to the town (approx. 2.5 km) and the approximately 8 km long sandy beach, with a beautiful promenade, as well as numerous restaurants, cafes, bars, and excellent shopping opportunities. The German owners live in the house and lovingly look after guests as needed. The location of the villa is an ideal starting point for all activities and excursions.
    Free parking is available approximately 50 m from the house.
    From Vivenda das Palmeiras (studio), it is only a few minutes' drive to the town and the beautiful beach.
    Also ideal for wintering. Electric heating is available.
    In the winter months the electricity is paid extra on site (€ 0.30 Kw/h)

Lovely studio in small community setting

Everything you need in a studio apartment. Beautiful garden, pleasant community. Attentive host, but lots of privacy. 8 minutes drive to the town and beach.The only negative is the road can be a bit noisy during busy times. Also, if you use electric heater or dehumidifier there is a metered charge.

Nice

Very nice owner (Romi). Clean, well-maintained apartment. TV with many english news and movie channels. Good wifi. Grocery stores are nearby (less than 5min by car). Nice garden and sitting area outside. Fully equipped kitchen (but no oven). No laundry machine but you can wash by hand and dry outside. To find... do a search on google maps for "Rua de Vilamar, Porches". Well worth it.

True to the name, this is a very cozy studio. The host, Rufiana (I hope I spelt that correctly) was extremely responsive and was able to check us in early. Upon arrival she showed us the apartment & gave us a map of the surrounding areas & town and even gave us suggestions on which local markets to shop at & restaurants to dine in. The studio is far enough away from the tourist spots where it’s a great place to sit in the shade and kick your feet up after being outside all day. But it’s close enough where you’re only about a 10 minute drive to Armação de Pêra, Benagil cave tours, and the Seven Hanging Valley hike points. The highway is right past the wall barricading the premises but to be honest the noise didn’t bother us throughout the night and it still felt very safe. Will definitely look at staying here again on the next go around!

Abbiamo usufruito della struttura nel corso del road trip in Algarve per essere vicini alle zone clou di Benagil, Praia da Marinha ecc. Posizione davvero strategica per raggiungere i posti migliori della zona, camera ampia e perfettamente pulita. C’era anche un bellissimo giardinetto all’entrata, corredato di tavolino con sedie. Siamo stati accolti dall’host in modo veramente ospitale. Dandoci tutte le informazioni del caso e addirittura facendoci trovare acqua e una bottiglia di vino frigo. Cucina completa di tutto il necessario per soggiornare, e c’era un ombrellone a disposizione. Ci siamo trovati veramente bene, e di sicuro ricontatterò questa struttura per quando ritornerò in Algarve.

Très bon séjour

Je recommande cet appartement qui est super bien placé dans un quartier plutôt calme pour aller découvrir l'Algarve. Proche de toutes commodités et non loin des principales plages et points de vue. De plus l'hôte est tree accueillante et malgré nos difficultés en anglais, nous avons toujours pu échanger. Le logement est tres propre et contient tout ce qu'il faut.

Consigliato! - Migliorabile

Siamo stati accolti molto bene dalla proprietaria, una persona simpatica, che si è sempre dimostrata molto disponibile a qualsiasi esigenza si possa avere e reattiva nelle risposte tramite telefono. La zona in cui è situato l’appartamento dista 20 min di macchina da Albufeira. L’appartamento anche se piccolo, risulta essere ben fornito delle attrezzature varie. Il patio è molto carino, abbiamo cenato fuori con piacere. Nel complesso ci siamo trovati bene!; unica pecca, e quindi da trovare una soluzione, essendo a piano terra e in mezzo al verde, ci sono molte formiche all’interno, pur tenendo sempre pulito.
