Explore the Algarve from this funky apartment, located in the largest city in the western Algarve, Portimão. This home's prime location puts you right in the heart of the city, close to beaches and marinas for sunny afternoon strolls – and you'll have a private balcony, complete with a small barbecue, where you can sit and soak up views of the cityscape around you. We love the bold use of colour in this home, making it feel modern and characterful – and it provides all the amenities you'll need for a happy home-from-home stay.

Home truths:
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask. *We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There is parking at the home.
