About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Garden and private swiming pool, also WIFI! 12m walk to the beach! Peacefull!

This flat, In the heart of a peaceful fisher and farmer village people, walk distance of 15 minutes from the beach! A +/- 20Km of white silky sand beaches,lots of birds, our house offers the smelly Mediterranean plants and the peaceful and quiet sight of a starred sky,magnificent sunsets in a large alfresco patio after a very warm sunny day!
Our swimming pool, disinfected by salt system, invites you, even in the hot nights,to have a swim under the stars! Hot water by solar energy. We are surrounded by some of the best Golf courses and 5km from the best of Europe!
Manta Rota grew between farms and the sea. Without really being a fishing village, Manta Rota can keep afford fresh vegetables and always very fresh fish! Surrounded by Castles museums and legends of Moors, a cultural richness, legacy, we are neighboring cities-museums as Mértola, Beja or even Sevilha, in Spain: 1 h 30 from Beja and from Seville. Manta Rota has a privileged situation between civilizations and Cultures. An hour and a half between Manta Rota in a circle that goes from the West coast of Sagres, to Sevilha, Beja and Mértola, in the Alentejo: its museums, its Culture, its Art, its songs, hunting areas, excellent wines and the beauty of one unique landscape in the world!
The Natural Legacy: Manta Rota is located between 2 natural parks: Ria Formosa, which begins here and ends after the city fishing port Olhão. The Sapal, Salt works, which houses a variety of animals and water birds, such as the pink flamingos.
Above all: We have the more important and priceless MUST: Peace!
Although the owner lives on the ground floor, the privacy of guests is highly preserved ... and allows the claims on the field!

Peaceful Haven
We spent four days at Maria's apartment which is the top floor of a villa. The apartment is spacious and very clean and comfortable. The outdoor space is wonderful with the pool and gardens being the best feature. There is plenty of seating and little cozy areas to escape to. We could not believe we were close to other houses and hardly heard a sound - it was so peaceful!! Manta Rota itself was very clean and has a handful of bars and restaurants. Many a cocktail was sampled. The beach is vast so finding a quiet spot was easy. I would have no hesitation in recommending this apartment to anyone and would gladly return.

Amazing sun terrace, fabulous pool & wonderful hosts!
Maria José & her daughter maintain a beautiful place to stay & they are extremely respectful of privacy and the place they offer is such a gem! The terrace gets plentiful sun & the pool is salt water & cools you down in the lunchtime sun! The generosity of these hosts was lovely & appreciated and the apartment was stocked with all the essentials we required. The restaurants & places nearby offered delicious authentic Portuguese food. We had a wonderful time!

Our stay at Sunflower Villa in Manta Rota
We've had great 7 days at this beautiful apartment this August. Everything you could wish for was available. The contact with Maria and her daughter Monica was very warmly and uncomplicated at any time. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved sitting on the terrace in the evenings enjoying silence and gazing at the stars. All in all highly recommended, we'd come back any time. Thank you so much!

Lovely property, good location, friendly owners
The apartment is upstairs (first floor) with a separate entrance, the view from the deck / terrace is beautiful. The entire property, including the pool, is very well-maintained and taken care of. The kitchen is well-equipped, including coffee-maker, dishwasher, washing machine, stove, electric handmixer etc. Bicycles were provided. Communication with the owners was warm and friendly. The property is located in a quiet neighbourhood, and you have all the privacy you could ask for. There's a supermarket within walking distance where you get everything you need, and it's just a short walk to the beach. We can definitely recommend this property and hope to visit again in the future.

Propriedade acolhedora, limpa e com tudo o que é necessário para umas férias de descanso e em família. Piscina fantástica tanto para adultos e crianças. Rodeada de natureza - de manhã acorda-se ao som dos pássaros que se torna relaxante. Proprietária muito prestável, simpática, acolhedora e que nos faz sentir como se estivéssemos em casa. Perto da praia, com tudo perto a pé e na melhor zona do Algarve. Saímos gratos e pretendemos regressar.
