About this apartment rental
Welcome to Casa Ventura — a peaceful Algarve escape just a short walk from the world-famous Praia da Marinha and the breathtaking Seven Hanging Valleys Trail.
Located in a small and quiet condominium of only 6 units, this spacious ground-floor apartment combines the comfort of a luxury villa with the relaxed atmosphere of the Algarve. Enjoy your own private garden, sunny and shaded terraces, a beautiful communal pool and direct access to some of the most stunning coastal scenery in Portugal.
Casa Ventura is perfectly designed for both relaxing holidays and longer stays. Whether you want to spend your days exploring hidden beaches, hiking dramatic cliff trails, surfing, golfing or simply enjoying slow mornings in the garden with a coffee and fresh local fruit — this is the ideal base to experience the Algarve lifestyle.
The apartment features fast fiber optic WiFi, making it perfect for digital nomads and remote workers. The fully equipped kitchen includes a dishwasher, oven, microwave, washing machine and dryer. There is comfortable floor heating throughout the apartment, a cozy fireplace for cooler evenings and multiple indoor and outdoor spaces to relax, read or work.
The master bedroom features a king-size bed and the second bedroom offers two single beds that can also be joined together. All beds are high-quality box springs with plenty of pillows for extra comfort. Entertainment includes 3 smart TVs with Netflix, YouTube and international channels.
From Casa Ventura you can easily discover the best of the Algarve. Praia da Marinha is only a 5-minute walk away and many other beautiful beaches such as Benagil, Albandeira, Carvoeiro and Praia da Rocha are nearby. Restaurants, beach cafés, golf courses, padel courts and supermarkets are all within easy reach.
Nature lovers will appreciate that the famous Algarve cliffs and hiking trails start almost directly from the apartment. Thanks to the central location near Carvoeiro and Lagoa, Casa Ventura is also ideal for day trips across the Algarve — from Sagres and the surf beaches in the west to Tavira and Faro in the east.
Free parking is available inside the condominium.
Casa Ventura is more than just a holiday apartment — it’s a place to slow down, reconnect with nature and experience the Algarve at its best.

The apartment is a walk from the beautiful Marinha beach with it’s coves, and a great Hanging valley nature walk with spectacular views. We made use of the pool at the apartment and chilled Reading on the sun loungers. The apartment is spacious and well equipped, it made a difference to have an extra towels.
It had a washing machine and dryer which was used.
We did find it difficult not having any air con at time as it was so hot and the were no fans in the apartment, however as soon as i mentioned this you supplied us with a fan.
We all enjoyed our holiday and would definitely recommend staying at your lovely apartment.
It was a pity it was so away from Carvoeiro but it was also so nice to be a walk from the amazing beach xx

Property was easy to book and communication with the property owner was good with immediate replies to any questions I had.
Property was in an excellent location, very quiet, but close to town to get stuff where needed.
Pool was an added bonus.
Will book again.

This is a large, beautifully decorated, and well equipped flat very close to one of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve, with a nice pool and private garden. Opposite to what is currently shown in google street view, there is a new and nice sidewalk down the ca 350 meters (5 min walk) to the beach; driving would make no sense at all. The optimised path through the bushes to Benagil beach (with its nearby famous cave) is also only around 15 min hike. Great for combining hiking in proximity to coastal landscape (both towards west and east) and water activities.
We chose the place due to its quiet location in proximity of beautiful nature, while not being remote: Well placed strategically to Silves (ca 20 min drive), shopping (ca 10 min), evening walks/ice cream/swim in Carvoiero (10 min) as well as exploring e.g. Sagres (the previously suspected "end of the world") and Lagos on the way for longer tours. We had considered basing ourselves in Lagos and were relieved to have chosen this rental unit instead.
The road passing the house (Casa Catharina) is mostly blocked (at least in high season) due to limited access to the parking lot at the famous beach, hence there is only limited traffic on the (hence quiet) road (as a guest with parking space on the property it is of course possible to leave and enter the premises and area by car).
Very swift communication with owner and manager. Very commendable with detailed instructions and information ahead of stay.
Ideal for a family with teenage kids or up to two couples.
Two separate beautiful bathrooms.
Thank you Marisa for making the stay possible.
