4-STAR LUXURY 2 BED/2 BATH APARTMENT, POOLS, WIFI, AIR-CON, 5 MINS WALK TO BEACH

Quality furnished apartment close to beach & village. The large 28 sq.m. elevated veranda features a built-in BBQ with outdoor furniture and views over Burgau village, and the Monchique mountains in the distance. There are 2 bedrooms, one double, one twin. The double, master bedroom has an En-suite bathroom with a Jacuzzi bath/shower. The second bathroom enjoys a NEW, double-size walk in shower - both bathrooms enjoying under-floor heating. Every room leads onto the sunny south-east facing balcony, and there is also air-conditioning throughout the apartment.

The lounge features the latest 37' LED TV with most UK TV channels, all SKY Sports, F1 and Golf, and also BT Sports channels. Most European channels also included(DE, FR, PT, NL, BE, SW).plus DVD, Bluetooth speaker.

We offer a broadband connection enabling Wi-Fi within the apartment, which is included in the rental price.

Part of the 4-star Domusiberica complex, set in beautifully landscaped gardens overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, with its own exclusive outdoor communal pool, and a separate children's splash pool.

Adjoining the pools is a large, fenced, lawn area ideal for ball games and for children to play in safety. The complex is situated on the edge of the village overlooking the beach and adjacent to the National park.

Take a short 2 minutes stroll into the delightful fishing village of Burgau and a further 3 mins down the cobbled streets to the beach. Burgau has a wide selection of restaurants, cafes and bars; whilst also having a BLUE FLAG beach of clean white sand.

Burgau is easy to reach from Faro airport, taking just under a hour on the A22 motorway. Car hire is very reasonable and enables exploration of the area. For a really relaxing holiday arrive by Taxibus. The village is self contained with small shops, food stores and restaurants so a car is not necessary. There is also a small farmers market most days with fresh fruit, vegetables and fish. Lagos is only a short journey away, and the bus service is very good, and taxis reasonably priced.

Monchique is a breathtaking rural town, just 20 minutes inland from Portimao on Portugal’s Algarve Coast. Caldas de Monchique is a charming centuries-old spa town - wonderfully peaceful, ideal to enjoy walks and picnics.

Slide and Splash at Lagoa is the nearest water park for the children, and Zoomarine at Guia (near Albufeira),though a little further away, (forty minute drive) is a great family day out - take swimsuits (there are pools as well).
Heading west towards Sagres and further on, are the more exposed beaches of the western Atlantic coast, including beautiful Amado and slightly more deserted Bordeira, with their great surfing conditions.

Very well appointed apartment close to beach and great town
The property was to a very high standard with lots of space and everything you need. We loved to sit on the very large balcony for breakfast and throughout the day, Bergau was less than five minutes walk away with a terrific selection of restaurants serving great food and a great beach, It was easy to drive to many local towns with lots of things to do. The property owner and property manager were both very responsive and helpful.

Beautifully maintained apartment just on the edge of Burgau. The apartment is very well equipped but could do with a step stool in the kitchen to reach the cupboards. The apartment is east facing so the terrace only has sun in the morning but there is use of the pool and loungers in the Nova Bar at the end of the road. Easy access to the lovely bars and restaurants in Burgau and the beautiful beach. Would book again.

The apartment was very clean, well laid out with a large balcony and very comfy beds. We were glad to have the air con during the hot weather. We didn’t meet anyone from the management company and couldn’t find the reception when we needed to explain a breakage. The pool was very disappointing; run down, dirty and with not enough umbrellas and that really lets the apartment down. But the local beach was beautiful and so we spent most of our time there.

Thoroughly enjoyed our three week stay at this very comfortable apartment. Truly a home from home. Very clean and well furnished and equipped. Quiet and peaceful with a lovely view from all the rooms and the balcony across the fields to the village. Just a short walk to the village shops and restaurants and the beautiful beach . We love Burgau and are returning to this apartment next September.

Spacious, comfortable and clean.
The apartment is situated in a quiet location on the outskirts of Burgau, within a few minutes walk of restaurants and supermarkets etc. Lots of nice walks to be enjoyed in the area, with direct access to the coastal trail. Good location for exploring the wider area, as the roads are very good, well sign-posted and quiet. Only a limited number of restaurants are open at this time of year, which is to be expected, but still sufficient. If you enjoy cooking, suggest you visit the Intermarche supermarket, which is only a few miles away on the N125, heading west. Great choice of fresh fish, fruit and veg etc (there is also a petrol station on site). The indoor market in Lagos is also worth a visit. We stayed for 10 days, most of which were very warm and sunny and at this time of year, there are lots of birds and wild flowers to be seen. We really enjoyed our stay and can recommend both the apartment and the area.

Peaceful and relaxing
I was met by joao who was very welcoming and showed me around the apartment and how to use the WiFi and utilities. I loved the extra touch of having a small welcome pack of bread, butter, milk and juice and most importantly a bottle of red. I wish most property let’s was this nice and welcoming. The appartment had everything we needed and was really clean. We hired a car from the airport and found the appartment very easily with the details given and parking out side. We used the car to drive to Lagos and found a car park for €1 a day Amazing. Burgau is very easy to walk around and stunning. I would honestly tell everyone one to not judge Burgau by the pictures on google they do not do it justice. Myself and friends are already looking forward to returning to Burgau next year or later this summer. Thank you Steve and Mandy for letting us stay in your home. Best wishes

Great!
My wife & I spent 6 enjoyable weeks in Steve & Mandy's cozy apartment in Burgau. A perfect location for us, with a spacious deck facing east and the neighbouring Burgeau hamlet. Ana welcomed us, and was there when needed (only to fix the tv for us technically challenged), and the cleaning staff did a fantastic job each Wed. that was very much appreciated!! The beach and restaurants are a short walk from the apartment, so that was a daily routine for us. We would definitely return. Thank you Steve & Mandy. Pete & Bonnie

Well appointed luxury apartment
Clean, comfortable, modern apartment situated close to Burgau's amenities. The weather was in the high 30's so the excellent user friendly air con was most welcome. Ana's professional & efficient manner, great communication skills and approachability ensured our stay was the best it could be: nothing was too much trouble.

Fabulous apartment!
The property was perfect for our two week stay there. We were met by Ana who showed us around the apartment & explained all the appliances etc. The apartment was immaculate with very comfortable beds, good quality furniture etc. Very well equipped with wifi and smart tv system. This is probably the best holiday let we've rented and is better than the 2 others we saw on the development (we stayed a 3rd week in another apartment in the next block!) However..... we were a bit disappointed by the complex itself. It all felt quite unloved. The gym has closed down, the grounds around the pool & playground needed maintaining, bins around the pool area weren't emptied for days on end and toilets weren't cleaned very often. On the plus side the Tomik restaurant was excellent.

This was our second stay at Steve and Mandy's lovely apartment. It is superb in every way; it is spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and the balcony is fabulous! Ana and Daniella are marvellous, they are really friendly and always on hand if you need them. We love Burgau and the surrounding area and Steve and Mandy's apartment is the icing on the cake! Thank you again for a wonderful stay and we hope to be back soon. A big thank you too for the welcome pack, you really do think of everything :-)

ruhiger Urlaubsort, viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten innerhalb 1 Stunde mit dem Auto
Appartement, das keine Wünsche offen ließ. Großer Balkon mit schönen Möbeln und Grillmöglichkeit. Pool mit Schiebefenstern, was aufgrund des teilweise kühlen Windes positiv hervorzuheben ist. Am Pool sind ausreichend Liegen und Sonnenschirme vorhanden. Im Ort gibt es viele Restaurants. Man sollte jedoch fast überall vorab reservieren. Leider war der Bäcker im Ort geschlossen, aber in kleinen Läden konnte man sich diesbezüglich versorgen.

Perfektes Urlaubsdomizil
Uns hat die Wohnung in unserem Urlaub im Juni sehr gut gefallen. Die Kommunikation mit dem Eigentümer war zügig und nett. Der Empfang durch die Verwaltung war pünktlich und einfach. Sehr gut war auch die wöchentliche Zwischenreinigung durch den Service. Die Wohnung war wie beschrieben und liegt am Rand von Burgau. Zum Zentrum und den zahlreichen Restaurants sind es 10 entspannte Gehminuten. Der große Balkon ist komplett überdacht und wir hatten einen guten Ausblick auf Burgau und die weite Gegend. Der Pool bot uns zwischendurch eine gute Möglichkeit zur Entspannung und Abkühlung. Wir würden die Wohnung wieder buchen.

Larm fra reperation af nabolejlighed, grim udsigt og ringe Pool forhold
I 5 ud af de 8 dage vi var der, var overboen i gang med at ombygge badeværelse (tror vi). for der var larm af borehammere, maskinmejsler mv. Trods klager til ejeren fortsatte det. Udsigten fra den store og gode altan var ødelagt af skrammel, nedrivningsmodne bygninger og store jordbunker, som dagligt blev tilføjet. Poolen var aldeles ikke forbundet med lejligheden, men lå bag ved en restaurant på den anden side af vejen vest på. Der var gratis adgang (gennem restauranten) men poolen og området var nedslidt og ringe vedligeholdt. Lejligheden sig selv var stor og veldisponeret, men mangledede en del til husholdingen; Ingen kaffekopper, meget få gafler og virkede noget bedaget. Store sætningsrevner i stuen og det ene badeværelse. Byen Burgau tilbyder en del restauranter og en god ren strand, som man dog skal via en omvej på 7 minutter for at nå. Mange af dagene var vandet trods udmærket temperatur for voldsomt for os og den benyttes da også af mange surfere. Byen virker som om den har sin fremtid bag sig. Vi kommer ikke igen.
