About this property

Holiday Apartment at the Foot Beach

Set in a fishing village called Salema, just 2 km from the Golf Resort San Antonio.

The beach is situated a 1-minute walk from the house as well as a wide variety of restaurants, 12 in total, where you can enjoy local products. If Surf lovers, there are great beaches very close, including where they can watch some championships.
The house consists of a Ground floor with living room and dining room and kitchen. The first floor has two bedrooms with double bed and the other with a smaller bed, enough for an adult or two children and a bathroom with shower. Finally we have the second floor with another double bedroom, plus a full kitchen, a toilet with shower and a small balcony with table and chairs with direct and privileged view of the beach.

It was such a wonderful stay here. The area is so relaxing and we spent each evening on the porch overlooking the ocean. Its a bit noisy as you are right above a bar, however it was expected being in the center of town. The home was absolutly wonderful and we enjoyed every minute here

Just the best!

If you don't mind stairs, this is the perfect place! Bars & restaurants just steps from your door along with the ocean front! Hauling your luggage up 2 & 3 floors isn't fun, but it's so worth it! The tiny balcony is a great place to listen to the ocean waves with coffee, or a glass or wine. Property is exactly as advertised with everything we needed for our stay! Very narrow street to drive up to unload the luggage & parking is about a block or 2 away, but safe for sure! We had the best time relaxing in Salema! Thank you!

Zo dicht aan zee

Een heerlijk vissershuis direct aan zee. Elke ochtend ben ik gaan zwemmen. We hebben meerdere keren in het dorp gegeten en met alle winkeltjes om de hoek. Het enige nadeel was toch wel het geluid van het café. Maar met oordoppen in ging dat wel. Het huisje is niet geschikt voor lange mensen, want de trap doorgang zijn heel laag en stoot je makkelijk je hoofd. De bovenverdieping met keuken en balkon is fantastisch en heerlijk dat ruisen van de zee!

Traumort, tolles Haus, aber.....

Das Haus liegt sehr nah am Strand, ist optimal ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Die Gastgeberin ist erfahren und sehr freundlich. Nach einer Woche wird das Haus komplett geputzt und Wäsche und Handtücher gewechselt. Eigentlich ein Traum: Die Gasse ("Hauptstraße" von Salema) ist tagsüber sehr ruhig, der Strand ist toll und nicht zu voll und der Ort ist genau die richtige Mischung aus Fischerdorf und Touristenort. Nun der Haken: Direkt gegenüber liegt die "Bar Aventura", die leider sehr erfolgreich ist. Die Leute feiern dort teilweise bis um 2 Uhr morgens und an Schlaf ist nur mit Ohrstöpseln und geschlossenen Fenstern zu denken. Oder man feiert einfach mit. Oder man schläft wie ein Stein...für Leute, die Salema noch von früher als ruhigen Ferienort ohne die typischen Algarve-Feten-Sauf-Urlauber kennen, ist diese Unterkunft (leider! Da sonst alles perfekt ist!) nichts.
