Home in Olhão

Exceptional townhouse with private pool on the terrace, in the heart of the old town of Olhão, 2 minutes from the sea. The house includes a living room, kitchen and toilet on the ground floor, 2 bedrooms with 2 en-suite bathrooms upstairs, and a rooftop terrace with private heated pool, solarium and summer kitchen. Very bright and crossing, it overlooks a common patio with its small fountain and offers very high quality services. The space Recently remodeled with the help of a great architect and local artisans, it offers comfort and discreet luxury while respecting the soul and the very special Cubist architecture of the historic center of the old town of Olhão. The house is decorated in a "chic countryside" style, with dominant tones of white and gray and small touches of color. A very elegant decoration with mirror and light effects. A small balcony overlooking the patio, to dream of serenades in the moonlight to the tune of fado. A private rooftop terrace pool to relax. I set out to decorate it to create a bubble of calm and light a little out of time, a break of serenity in the heart of the lively streets, shops, restaurants and markets of the largest fishing port of the Algarve and Ria Formosa. Cement tiles individually manufactured by a master craftsman, unique pieces imported from various countries and reminiscent of the old Portuguese colonies, old doors and windows restored by a master carpenter, I wanted to preserve the soul and the often unknown history of Portugal and the Algarve. All this is combined with today's comfort, quality beds (king size bed 1.80 m, 2 beds of 0.90 m), quiet reversible air conditioning and a high-performance WIFI installation (fiber) despite the thickness of the walls. The kitchen is fully equipped with oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher (because we have something else to do on vacation...), washer-dryer, espresso machine (Dolce Gusto) and much more. The summer kitchen, on the terrace, with refrigerator, sink and Plancha, allows you to enjoy the sweetness and sunshine of the Algarve and spend unforgettable evenings in front of a drink while enjoying the reflections and light effects of the pool. It's also time to relive memories with Pac-Man, Super Mario, Mario Kart, The Legend of Zelda, Mega Man, Donkey Kong, F-Zero and all the others from the Nintendo Classic for casual evenings at aperitif time around a big screen. The swimming pool is heated from March to October to a pleasant temperature. It is a salt pool, with perfect hygiene but without the risk of allergies or red eyes. Linens and towels are provided: all the comforts of a real guest house. No car needed to shop, eat at the restaurant, enjoy the Ria Formosa and access the beaches of the beautiful islands of Culatra, Farol and Armona. The Élégante is particularly well suited to accommodate two couples or a family with children. The house is prepared with everything you need for your first continental breakfast: - Milk - Orange juice - Butter - Jam - Fresh bread - Coffee - Tea - Sugar Very complete high quality equipment, easy parking, WiFi, Nintendo console, 55" 4K smart TV, Faro airport 15 minutes away. Guest access L'Élégante is part of the CasaPadua residence. A group of 5 small townhouses, each with its own unique and refined style and decoration, organized around a fountain and a common patio. The house is available in its entirety. It is accessed by a private entrance from the patio which is accessible from the street by a digicode. Keys are available in a combination safe near the door.
