## Neighborhood
Olhão is located next to Faro. It has a lovely and lively old centre with a rich history of traditional Portuguese culture. From here, you can easily explore both the east, west and inland Algarve but Olhão is perhaps most famous as the access point to the beautiful and peaceful islands of Armona and Culatra by ferry. There are public and private ferry options are available, and they are located just a few minutes' walk from the apartment.
Due to the central location, you will have lots of shops, restaurants and bars to choose from in the close vicinity of the apartment. In addition, a supermarket is located at less than 5 minutes walk.
## Transit
You can quickly get around on foot or use public transport or a taxi/uber. A hire car is recommended if you want to explore the larger Algarve area. Parking in old town Olhão is accessible in most places, except along the waterfront. It can be challenging to find it, but a spot will usually be available close to the apartment. An extensive paid parking area at a nearby hotel is a good alternative for those uncomfortable navigating the old town streets.

It is a comfortable place to stay in a great place and I will not say anymore because I want to go again ... very soon.
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2024
We enjoyed our stay at Townhouse 13 in Olhao. It was located very close to the fish and vegetable market with easy access to many restaurants. There was also a grocery store just a few minutes away. The place was no frills but very comfortable and located on the first level for one of us who has difficulty with stairs. I would definitely stay here again!
6 / 10Average·Mar 2025
The apartment was adequate for our month long stay. It was closely located to the markets, super mercado, and restaurants and bars. The apartment is in an historic building which means lots of passerbys stopping for photo opportunities as well as artists drafting paintings. The street is very busy for a small street and is lively into the early hours. Given the time of year, it required 24/7 dehumidification due to dampness. If a little effort is spent to upgrade the apartment, such as the apartment upstairs which is lovely, we would definitely return.
