About the area

Even in the busiest times of the year, a little exploring along the coast will enable you to find a peaceful area of beach on which to relax – try finding this sort of tranquillity on the costas favoured by package tourists!

How to get there
The apartment is approximately 40 minutes from Faro airport and 90 minutes from Seville airport. Although a bus service operates between Costa Esuri and Ayamonte the area is not particularly well served by public transport. There are so many beautiful places to visit within short distances we recommend that to make the most of your stay, you make arrangements for car hire.

Further Details
Ayamonte is a delightful and picturesque port town, full of life and Spanish tradition. Centuries of history are reflected on each corner of its narrow cobbled streets. There are boutiques, traditional shops, bars, cafes and restaurants to suit every choice. Ayamonte and the surrounding area is unspoiled, relaxed, traditional and offers a perfect place to relax into the Spanish pace of life in an area delightfully unspoiled by tourism. If you wish for a change of scene, a ferry will take you across the river into Portugal where the town of Villa Real offers the chance to sample similar pleasures to those of Ayamonte, but with a distinctly different Portuguese feel.
The Costa De La Luz or ‘Coast of Light’ is one of the most beautiful spots in Europe and remains an undiscovered and unspoiled area of Spain with 15 wonderful beaches, delightful villages and small towns. Only the River Guadiana separates this area of Spain region from neighbouring Portugal. A wide variety of food, leisure facilities are enjoyable during the whole year, as is an important cultural heritage. In short it’s a perfect scenario to chill out for a while and go home back totally renewed. The region enjoys very pleasant weather, with winds from the southeast bringing a welcome relief during the hotter months of summer. In winter, temperatures rarely reach under 10º C, and sunshine prevails.
Even in the busiest times of the year, a little exploring along the coast will enable you to find a peaceful area of beach on which to relax. Portugal is so close you can see it from the apartment, so you can easily explore the wonderful Algarve area and find some of the best beaches in Europe. There are many towns along the cost that offer marvellous restaurants and good local shopping. Experience the feel of Portugal and see how it provides a flavour that is subtly different from neighbouring Spain.
