Alto Golf  is a leasurely 5 min walk away. 

Beach

The nearest beach is Praia dos Tres Irmaos 1,3 km away . However this part of the coast has some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe all very different. They start with Praia da Rocha a huge sand plain with a wooden promenade beach restaurants and rows of parasols and sun beds.This leads onto the more secluded Praia do Vau and then the magic caves and coves of Joao Arens Prainha and Tres Irmaos and ending with the rolling sand dunes of Praia do Alvor - a total of 10 km or more. As if the sun sea sand and sangria were not enough water sport activities include Slide and Splash BBQ cruises grotto trips Zoomarine paragliding fishing surfing sailing diving and yachting : also safaris bird watching hiking golf tennis sightseeing. During the day there are festivals exhibitions and international competitions. Each evening there will be something going on somewhere - it never stops.   

Distance to Shops

The nearest shop is a 4 min walk,  Alvor down the road has a wider choice but Portimao 6 km the other way has become the retail capital of the Western Algarve.It now has 4 commercial centres and 8 super markets Pingo Doce Continente Le Clerc etc. We are all spoilt for choice. No more long queues. The nearest restaurant Por do Sol is 1 min away on the other side of the road. It is excellent value for money. Other good close by restaurants are Xicos Hof van Holland Vau Costa Kottemisse and of course the vast selection that Alvor has to offer.
