A Faro Dream

Nestled in the heart of Portugal's Faro, renowned for Renaissance cathedrals and baroque architecture, this sleek apartment provides an idyllic base from which to explore the city. Tucked within a historical building that's been recently renovated, this duplex apartment offers stylish designs and modern comforts.

Minimal and contemporary but totally inviting, this place is brought to life by rattan light fixtures, graphic textiles and coastal accents. Wake up blissfully, the sea breeze washing over you through your French doors. Start your day with a refreshing swim in the shared pool before tucking into a fresh breakfast at the kitchen bar. Enjoy a leisurely morning on the plump sofa, turning pages of your holiday read or if work is on the agenda, fire off a couple of emails from the bedroom desk.

When you're ready to head out, you’re in a prime location to see the sights. You’re just a short walk from Igreja do Carmo and Igreja de Santa Maria, whilst the vibrant Faro Marina, where ferries connect you to the sandy shores of Praia de Faro, is only a few minutes from your doorstep. When the sun fades, grab some pasteis de nata and tuck in along the water’s edge.
