CASAS DA PRAIA, 53 Just a few minutes walk from the Ocean
Casa Maria is almost a secret; hidden behind a tall privet hedge this beach house gives you complete privacy for relaxing and dining al fresco in the garden. Once inside you’ll find that Casa Maria has everything you need to take full advantage of its spectacular location and is just a few minutes’ walk from the Ocean. The three storey beach house is simple yet luxurious, floors are covered in traditional terracotta tiles and sisal carpets in the living area complement the rustic lime washed wood. Comfy white sofas with plump blue patterned cushions enliven the area with a splash of colour, and the whole living area opens up onto the terrace, bringing the outside in. The fully equipped, white and granite kitchen on the mezzanine floor is both contemporary and charming, with traditional cabinets and full amenities. Two individually decorated bedrooms comfortably sleep up to four guests, children are welcome here, making it an ideal spot for families. Both rooms have twin beds, air conditioning and private en-suite bathrooms with showers. Outside in the garden you can cook up local seafood or juicy steaks on the barbeque and help yourself to lemons straight from the tree to give a zesty finish to salads and sauces. Set the mood with your favourite music from your iPad and Bluetooth speaker, and stay connected and comfortable. Lazy afternoons can be spent reading, on one of the three secluded terraces, taking a nap or back inside watching your favourite English TV channels. Sky Sports is also available via internet with free and fast WIFI supporting any number of devices. Strolling to the beach and Praça takes just two minutes, and the clubhouse and reception, with its small arcade of shops and Spike’s Bar and Restaurant, 10 minutes.

We loved our stay, the location was perfect for us with our daughter being under 2 it was great to be in such a central location. Check in was really easy and Miguel was on hand at any point
Hello,
We had a really lovely short stay. Definitely would go back! Host and comms were great. Property is in prime location to all you need. Taxis etc all accessible via Uber and so easy to use.
Thank you for having us x
This was a very well located and clean property. Miguel very kindly left us some food and water which we found on arrival. The ease with which we accessed the property was excellent and Miguel was always very quick to respond. I would definitely recommend.
We had the opportunity of staying 11 days at this property. Miguel was fantastic any issues we had (very little) were taken care of immediately.
Great location a five minute walk to the Praca beach. Will definitely return.
This property was a welcome stay after travelling for two weeks and staying in hotel rooms. It's well appointed and the property manager ensured there was some small staples for breakfast in the fridge, which was very well received. The area is beautiful. We didn't realize that it was a beach resort style area and after venturing to Albufeira, we were extremely happy to have so many amenities at hand.
They only negative we have is an important one and might only happen in July and August. At the bottom of the road you'll find the restaurants and bars. Unfortunately, starting at 2am and going until about 3:30am, hoards of drunken bar goers walk home. As this place is closest to the road, it becomes extremely loud. So much so that we would have to go out and ask them to be quiet and move along. We were unsure why the ever present security staff did not take care of this and keep the crowds moving. We were scheduled for 3 nights but left after 2 and proceeded with the next leg of our journey early as we could not get a full night's sleep.
The house is very private and peaceful as described. I was traveling with my dad (a senior citizen) and the location along with the layout of the house provided us our individual privacy. Being close to the Praça we had easy access to the beach and restaurants along with nightly entertainment.
I hope to have the opportunity to return one day.
You can walk where ever you want to go. We rented a car for just a couple of days. Fantastic beach, golf, tennis and restaurants
