€225 - €585 Per Week

Santa Luzia is a small fishing village about 4 kms to the west of the gracious and historic town of Tavira. It lies on the Ria Formosa, a designated nature reserve which is particularly rich in bird life. The Ria is a lagoon formed by a long offshore sandbank running parallel to the coast, with endless sandy beaches on the seaward side.
The apartment is close to the centre of the old village, with its twisting cobbled streets and old fisherman's houses, and only about 40 metres from the lagoon waterfront, in a modern block of just 5 apartments. The duplex accommodation is on the first and second (top) floors of the block.
On the first floor there is a comfortably furnished livingroom with TV, DVD and tape-player/radio, and an internal staircase rising to the upper floor. There is also a separate fitted kitchen with dining table and chairs, equipped with fridge-freezer, cooker, washing machine, and small electrical appliances.
On the second floor there are two bedrooms, one with double bed, the other with twin beds and both with fitted wardrobes etc. and a bathroom with bath, shower, bidet, wc and whb. There are two private terraces, one facing south with views towards the village, the other (very large) running along the south and west sides of the block with views towards the lagoon and having a built-in barbecue and sink unit. Both balconies are equipped with sunbeds, table and chairs.
The apartment is built to a high specification and has double-glazing, insulation, and security shutters throughout. It is also fitted with a total climate control system combining air-conditioning and heating which ensures comfortable internal temperatures all year round.
The village of Santa Luzia contains a range of restaurants (mostly specialising in fresh sea-food), shops, pharmacy, bank, post office etc. all within easy walking distance, and has a very pleasant waterfront where you can stroll or relax while watching the fishermen at work. The land around Santa Luzia offers many opportunities for pleasant countryside walks, cycling etc. The beaches on the offshore sandbank can be reached by a ferry service which runs from the waterfront in the village centre in high season, or by water-taxi. Alternatively, the popular Barril beach, with restaurants , sports facilities and supervised beach can be reached from a point about 1 km west along the coast, where a mini railway shuttle runs thrugh the daylight hours to and from the mainland. A footpath runs beside the railway, so it is possible to walk from Santa Luzia to Barril beach - a total distance of about 4 kms.
There are at least four golf courses within a short drive of the village.
There is also public transport from the village to the main local town of Tavira. Steeped in a long history starting in Neolithic times and continuing through Phoenician, Roan, Moorish and Christian periods, this is undoubtedly the most elegant town of the Eastern Algarve, with a great atmosphere and many opportunities for sight-seeing, dining out and shopping (in open and closed markets).
Faro, the capital city and main airport of the Algarve is about 35 kms. to the west of Santa Luzia, and the village is only some 25 kms from the Spanish border, where a motorway bridge crosses the River Guadiana.The motorway runs all the way to Seville (some 185 kms), making it very easy to explore the south-western part of Andalusia by car.
