Olhos de Agua is on the coast in the centre of the Algarve, 30 minutes drive to the west of Faro airport. Originally a fishing village, now a popular holiday destination, owing to its attractive sandy beach, good restaurants and cafés.  The fishing fleet is still active and made up of a few attractive traditional style small fishing boats which are dragged up the beach by their owners at the end of the day.

Olhos de Agua has a quiet ambience all of its own very different from the noise and crowds of Vilamoura and Albufeira which are both about 15 minutes drive away.

This 5th floor flat was bought by the present owner 10 years ago and chosen because of its close proximity to the beach (10 minutes walk) and spacious accommodation.  The building was built about twenty years ago and is an attractive modern style of Portuguese architecture.
