About
Boa Vista Algarve Holiday Homes
East of Faro, in the very popular Portuguese region of Algarve, lies Boa Vista holiday homes. Boa Vista is located 6 km from the coast and 19 km from Faro airport. It was an old farmhouse and during renovation, the traditional architecture was respected. Boa Vista holiday homes are surrounded by a large Mediterranean garden from where you can see the sea, the city of Olhão, Ria Formosa National Park, and stunning sunsets. Carob, palm and olive trees offer ideal places to relax in the shade. We are away from big crowds of tourists. Nature and tranquillity are guaranteed. It is a place for an offline vacation, however within easy reach from beaches, bars and restaurants which serve traditional and international cuisine.
Over 30 ago I fell in love with Portugal and created my paradise in the Algarve. I speak Portuguese, French, German and English.

It was a really nice and clean place to stay. I would recommend the property.
Very nice and tranquil house with all utensils you may need and a wonderful hostess. Location wise is of the beaches but close to many. You need a car but then you have access to so much. Walking in the area is nice and it is in the countryside, in a very quiet area.bHostess Marie has a lot of information about everything so a great help. All very tidy and well organized. And with a beautiful roof terrace – extra points!
We spent 2 wonderful weeks in the house of Marie. The house is very idyllic in the mountains and Marie is a very pleasant and helpful host. A great garden and the terrace with the oven grill complete the picture. We recommend! Thanks again, Marie!
Casa Eira is a very cosy romantic small house in a beautiful natural environment. The terrasse and the garden are most beautiful – with Palm trees and wonderful old olive trees and we enjoyed sitting there and just doing nothing! Of course you need a car to get to the coast and the nearest small towns – but fuzeta with it´s very nice Island beaches is not far away and you can get everything there. Also the small village Moncarapacho nearbyis pittoresque – so there a lots of things to see!
Visit East Algarve!
