Guest Access
The entire house is private to guests. The accommodation on the terrace is not accessible (private area).
Good to know
The house has two independent entrances, one on Rua do Comércio, the other on the church side, on Largo da Restauração. Upstairs, a large living room overlooking the church square, a spacious dining room, four large bedrooms (one of which is an en suite, ideal for a couple and their children) served by a long corridor, 2 luxuriously equipped bathrooms and a large kitchen, its winter garden and small outdoor patio. Ideal for breakfasts sheltered from the sun. The charm also extends to the roof terrace with its summer kitchen and numerous outdoor spaces for enjoying summer afternoons to the full (XXL solarium). Enjoy a spectacular view of the town's magnificent church. But the best spot in the house will undoubtedly be the upper terrace (above the miradouro) and its relaxing lounge under the shade of the pergola, with a bird's-eye view of Olhão's rooftops, the Ria Formosa and the hills of the Algarve.
Other Details to Note
The house on offer is an old one, dating from 1870. It may have imperfections or drawbacks, as it is neither a hotel nor a new house. We wanted to preserve some of its imperfections and its authentic character. It's worth noting that the house is located opposite the town's main church, a church that retains its traditional way of life. The bell rings at 8am and then every hour until 10pm. A tourist tax is charged by the city of Olhão. The tax is paid per person per night, up to a limit of five nights per stay. The rate is 2 euros in high season and 1 euro in low season (November 1 to March 31). Olhão will charge two euros tourist tax per night in high season.
