We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Villa Julieta and I would definitely recommend this property. The location is great: it’s in a quiet spot but close to shops and supermarkets. It’s also a good base for exploring the area. Praia da Marinha is only a 20 min drive, while Sagres and the beautiful beaches of the Vicentina Coast are about an hour’s drive. The flat is clean, spacious and comfortable. There are two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room with a well-equipped kitchen and there is a washing machine. The balcony is long and narrow, with a table, a bbq and a great view towards the sea. The swimming pool is a good size and very well kept, with sun beds. As the sea in the Algarve is rather chilly, we were very pleased to have a pool. Julieta, the owner, lives below and is friendly but also very discreet. She kindly lent us a sun umbrella to take to the beach. She also told us about the farmers’ market in Armação de Pêra on a Saturday morning, where you can find a great selection of local fruit and vegetables at a very reasonable price.
