Great holiday apartment in a quiet location
This apartment is perfectly located in a quiet area, with easy access to the pools and restaurant. Just a short walk to a well stocked supermarket , train station and not much further into the bustling , yet relaxed small town or the beach and marina. The apartment is modern and well equipped. The owners are friendly, helpful and very quick to respond to any questions. Elisabete who manages the property in Portugal is fantastic - totally on the ball with everything.

Fiesta apartment
Lovely property, photos do not do it justice really. Nice outside space with bbq which we utilised a lot. Liked the fact that some beach items and outdoor items where available so didn’t have to buy. Spacious bathrooms, really comfy beds. We were disappointed that the pool area was now a restaurant, the pool did not seem well maintained and I was hoping the communal area was still there with games etc for us to chill out when it got too hot but it’s now a restaurant. Lots of lovely trendy chairs in the upstairs bar but hardly any sun beds to sunbathe in the daytime, pool was very cold too and our little boy only lasted very short periods in there before he was shivering. Fuseta was nice, busier than anticipated but still has that traditional feel that we were looking for, beach and shallow water perfect for children. We enjoyed our holiday in Fuseta, the manager Elisabete was always around if we had any questions.

We stayed nearly 5 weeks and enjoyed every moment. It’s a real home from home.
Lovely appt with all the amenities you could ever need from beach umbrella’s, coffee machines, juicers, bbq to bicycles. We were met by the lovely Elizabete who together with her daughter Tatiana always made us feel very welcome and were on hand to help with anything we needed. The appt sleeps six with a pull out double sofa. The pools are literally across the road and are very safe overlooking the Ria Formosa. Fuseta village is a casual 10 min walk where all the restaurants can be found. Our favourites were Rui’s for fish (you can’t book), yummys for pizza, ice cream and crepes, Green Spirit for amazing vegetarian food and Iguarius for everything including the best steak I think I’ve ever had (inc Hawksmoor) and the best bit, at very reasonable prices. We used the 15 min ferry to Fuseta beach a few times which is also a lovely experience and the sun umbrellas came in handy for those trips. All in all 5 weeks we needed after the last two years and 5 weeks we will remember for a very long time. Thank you from Jon, Natasha and all our family who visited.

Lovely holiday in a lovely apartment
A comfortable apartment in a pleasant small development. Only small criticism was that all of the umbrellas in the pool complex were broken, so no shade was available , so enjoyed relaxing in the sun in the back garden instead, which was lovely. There's good Wi-Fi in the apartment. Apartment manager was good and available if we needed her. Taxi pick and return to airport arranged through the owner and manager spot on. Overall a lovely holiday. Thankyou Alan and Elisabete.

About the host

Hosted by Deborah Symons

Host profile image
We were once hardcore holiday campers in the UK but got tired of holidays ruined by grey skies and constant rain. We love the beach and are all keen swimmers and wanted a place that we thought would appeal to potential guests and that we wanted to go back to time and time again. We haven't been disappointed yet. We love Fuzeta and its laid back, child friendly feel and have even got the stickers to prove it!

Why they chose this property

We looked around the Algarve for a place that boasted fantastic beaches, somewhere that wasn't overdeveloped and still retained a bit of 'old Portugal' and was still family orientated. There is a marina and village with excellent, simple bars and restaurants with great seafood and seriously good prices to boot. There is something for everyone here, several nearby quality golf courses, water parks, horse riding and water sports. We also regularly use the local train service and haven't hired a car for our last 3 stays. Faro Airport is mere 30 minutes drive away.

What makes this property unique

The traditional fishing village of Fuzeta is uncommercialised and is truly laid back and chilled. Constant sea views of the the Fuseta Ria National Park (an ornotholgists paradise) and the Isla de Armona from the lounge and around the grounds of the property are hard to beat. Set within a boutique development, it is quiet, luxurious and has a definite wow factor. 2 pools including a roof top infinity pool is available for use. There are several grocery shops and a fresh food market only 10 minutes walk from the apartment and one of the best beaches a short ferry ride away. The apartment has air conditioning through out, massive floor to ceiling windows and a secure video door entry access system. The private garden at the back allows you to enjoy the almost continuous Portuguese sun.
