Amenities

Located on the outskirts of the typical small town of Guia, this is a lovely place for an Algarve holiday. Here you can relax and enjoy your private pool or explore the local area and the fantastic beaches by day, then walk to a selection of restaurants in the evening. Our villas are in the Quinta dos Alamos community which is justone kilometre from the town centre and its famous Algarvian restaurants, one of which is where the Portuguese dish of chicken piri piri was created. There are also superb seafood and grill restaurants, plus an authentic local bar in the square. Although it's 6 kilometres from the coast you have a fantastic selection of beautiful sandy coves within a 10 minute drive, all have beautiful golden sand and impressive rock formations, sculpted by the sea with rock stacks, caves and rock pools. Gale beach is the closest and has two restaurants that look out over the sands so that parents can watch their children play on the beach between courses. Evaristo is a beautiful cove with an impressive and stylish fish restaurant and the coves at Coelho and Sao Raphael are also well worth a visit.
Just to the west of Gale is Salgadas beach, which has a vast stretch of sand and an impressive golf course to the rear. Elsewhere, golf courses are plentiful, with the five celebrated courses at Vilamoura within easy reach by car and over ten courses within a half hour's drive.
To the east of Guia is the famous resort of Albufeira, once a pretty fishing village, it is now a large resort taking advantage of the impressive beaches along its stretch of coastline. Although it can get very busy there is excellent shopping, bustling squares, markets and a few very good restaurants, some perched on the cliff tops with fantastic views over the beach and sea.

Within a few kilometres from our villas in Guia is the Algarve Shopping Mall, with a huge choice of shops, a food court, supermarket and multi-screen cinema, where movies are shown in their original language - mostly English. Across the main road there's a branch of Makro, take your membership card if you have one, for access to the superstore. Zoomarine Aquatic Park is a theme park with rides and various attractions with an aquatic theme. There's also a dolphin interaction programme where you can swim with the dolphins - this needs to be pre-booked. Several water parks are also within easy reach for a day of thrilling slides and fun.
