Casa Formosa is located less than 10 minutes’ drive from the vivid fishermen town of “Olhão”, on a contemplative hillside, in a calm valley. We designated it so, because from the major spots of our landed property, you got an amazing view to the Ria Formosa. Evergreen hills are flanking the dale, here it is perfect to keep an eye on the turning of the tide. Ferries oscillates between mainland and up streamed Isles of “Armona” and “Culatra”. Countless sailing boats anchors during summertime, by day they twinkle snow-white and by night they glitter as stars, which felt into the ocean…
Casa Formosa is right in the middle of the 7000 square meter plot and its old tree population. Out of 3 cardinal points the land declines to the valley, that is why the apartment has its own private garden of 1500 square meters dimension were also a boules court of 14x4 meters founds place. In the old residential area of the elongate estate there are the very busy owners living. They help with words and deeds, will be a good neighbour to you, and at the same time they will absolutely respect your privacy. They realized plenty of their ideas at Casa Formosa and took their fist-hand professional experience in mediating holiday accommodations since years, in advantage for this project. Since age of times the conception has been planned and in 2013 finalized. The result became a very comfortable holiday house with very well considered details and snugly atmosphere….
Entering through the big glass door, the cosy materials of tiles, doors and furniture offer a nice and warm welcome. Passing the round arch, you come to the spacious living room, which is divided into kitchen and sitting room. In between there is a bar, where you can have a relaxed chat. All three windows from the lounge are going to South-west and offer you a beautifully view into the garden to the ocean. Folding shutters and an excellent isolation, will spend lovely coolness during summertime, and during the rest of the year, the room can be flooded with sun and bright light, similarly. Fly screens keep away undesirable visitors. Wood burner in cast iron, is the heart of the living room, it is fixed on a semi-circle brick layer platform. A dining area with dining table, sofa suite and little corner with TV completes the sitting room. The “blue kitchen” is adjoining, best equipped, nothing to miss, while a look out of the window over the Ria Formosa will sweeten your holiday.
2 bedrooms going towards North, according to requirements, you can put the beds as a double or single one . Each bedroom has a wardrobe, a ceiling fan and air condition (the consumption will be charged extra). In between the bedrooms is the bathroom located, very tastefully with Portuguese tiles and a bathtub and bidet. In case you are more than 4 people, the studio next to, can also be rented in addition (see Studio Casa Formosa). The studio is through 2 doors cutting acoustic.
Open access to the guest garden is exclusive for apartment visitors. Common use is just the parking area and the utility room with washing machine. Worth mentioning, that both units are also wonderful during cooler season, because all rooms got their very economically wall heating working with infra-red, which is very healthy and spends cushy warmness. The apartment got in addition to them also a wood burner.
Casa Formosa´s surrounding is quite nice to stroll up and discover the nature, there is a plenty to observe. Up from the hill on the back side of the casa, you got a fantastic view over the Ria Formosa, the Atlantic and the fishermen town of “Olhão”. Especially by night it is amazing, when the city lights, the illumination of the island villages, the lighthouse and the stars are shining. Crossing narrow sandy path along very ancient stone walls, almond trees, figs and carobs you should continue your walk. With a little knowledge of a place, you can reach the small lagoon beach of "Cavacos", not longer than half hour by feet. We do recommend a car, going to the beach, shopping or sightseeing. Holiday guests who like to spend a more active leisure time, could do all this also by bicycle.

Liebevoll und komplett eingerichtetes Haus(teil) mit allein genutztem wunderschön angelegtem Garten mit hervorragender Aussicht auf die Ria
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2020
A casa era ótima, correspondia exatamente ao descrito. Os jardins estão meticulosamente tratados e a casa meticulosamente limpa. O único senão é o facto da anfitriã do espaço ser bastante fria para os parâmetros de hospitalidade portugueses. Recebemos para jantar um casal da família, que tem 7 filhos (entre os 17 anos e 1 ano). Não foram autorizados a estacionar na propriedade (subiram a rampa a pé com 2 crianças de colo ainda!) e à 1h30 a anfitriã dirigiu-se aos nossos convidados dizendo que teriam que ir embora. Não estavamos a fazer nenhum barulho excepcional, apenas a conversar no jardim (as crianças pequenas até dormiam e não somos pessoas de consumir alcool , e não havia música a tocar sequer, para não acordar as crianças). Consideramos que a atitude não foi a mais cordial, nem correta, e em desacordo com a arte de bem receber. Ainda nos disseram que teriamos que ter avisado que teriamos convidados para jantar (por acaso, eu avisara os simpáticos hóspedes do apartemento ao lado), não conhecia essa regra. Nós somos hóspedes educados e que não fazem barulho pelo que, esta atitude nos pareceu incorreta. Não se trata de um retiro de meditaçao, mas de um espaço de férias. Receber familia para jantar e ficar à conversa até um pouco mais tarde faz parte de estar de férias e de um estilo de vida saudável.

We've spent 5 lovely days at this House. The garden is so nice and perfect if you are travelling with kids. The beaches around are also beautiful. Very very recommended! Thanks for everything Jens and Heidi.

Die Casa Formosa ist ein interessant gelegenes Feriendomizil.
Die Qualität und Ausstattung entsprechen der Internetbeschreibung.
Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit und haben gute Tipps für den Strandgang, Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Ausflüge.
Ein Marktbesuch in Olhao oderFuseta ist empfehlenswert. Die Atlantikstrände können bequem und kostengünstig von Fuseta mit dem Boottaxi erreicht werden.
Für Naturliebhaber ist die Ria Formosa ein absolutes Highlight.
