With a prime location near the lively Praia da Rocha beach and Portimão Marina, this apartment is the perfect base from which to explore the Algarve. You'll also find plenty of restaurants, bars and supermarkets nearby, though we'd recommend hiring a car for ease – there's free private parking on the premises. Inside, the apartment has everything needed for a fuss-free stay, with the biggest highlight being the private balcony, furnished with a garden set. There's also a double sofa bed here for those travelling in groups of four. Just note that the kitchenette is very compact, although perfectly suitable for preparing light bites and breakfast.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two people will be sleeping on a double sofa bed in the living area.
The bedroom is made up of two single beds pushed together.
We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's private parking on the premises – though this is subject to availability, so we suggest booking in advance with your host.
While fully equipped, we think the kitchenette is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
Given the home's central spot near other popular properties, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
