.
The Pool apartment is set in two acres of beautiful gardens, consisting of natural terrain and partly-landscaped gardens, with oleanders, hibiscus, agaves and palms, plus olive, carob and almond trees. The approach is down a 100m private drive, which affords total seclusion. In spring the natural gardens abound with wild flowers including many orchids.
Enjoy your own private space in our modern villa built in traditional Portuguese style. The apartment is a fusion of traditional materials and modern design. It is bright and spacious with a large living/dining room and fully fitted kitchen area which is well equipped with an induction hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, cafetière, cutlery and all kitchen utensils.
Outside and surrounded by the gardens is a large 11m x 4m pool with sun-beds, and umbrellas for shade. We provide large towels for use by the pool, also a Beach Bag with towels, beach mats, sun umbrellas and cold bags with ice packs. The pool is just for your use, it is not shared with anyone else.
The apartment has a bluetooth speaker, dozens of books, free wireless internet access, clothes-airer, hairdryer, an iron and ironing board. The linen and towels will be changed weekly. There is a ceiling fan in the bedroom and for winter rentals, heating is provided.
A welcome pack can be provided with essentials for your first breakfast, and if you are arriving late we will be happy to book you a table at a local restaurant.
The large BBQ and picnic table is ideal for eating out and enjoying all the fresh fish from the local markets, and lit by candles and lanterns is a lovely way to spend an evening. The gardens have a variety of shaded seating areas from which to enjoy the slow passage of Algarve time.
The king size bed has cool cotton bedding and hypoallergenic pillows. The en-suite bathroom has a walk-in shower. The double doors lead out to your own private terrace, with table and chairs for alfresco dining.
The owners live in separate accommodation on the other side of the property.
Casa Jardim is situated just 3 kilometres from the market town of MONCARAPACHO where you will find numerous bars and several very good restaurants and a number of small but well stocked supermarkets.
We are just 20 minutes from Faro Airport, and as a CAR is ESSENTIAL we suggest that you pick up a rental car there. Directions from the airport to Casa Jardim are easy to follow.
Moncarapacho is midway between the regional capitol of Faro and the beautiful and historic town of Tavira, and just 30 minutes from the Spanish border. It is a short drive to the coast and some beautiful sand dune backed beaches in one direction, and the unspoiled countryside in the other. There are spectacular views from the surrounding hills which are perfect for exploring by car or on foot.
Our nearest beaches are at Fuzeta which is just 10 minutes away where you will find a bar for drinks and snacks right on the beach! Here you have the choice of the sheltered beach on the Ria behind the sand dunes, or taking the small ferry for a 5 minute trip over to the ocean, where there are also a number of small beach bars plus sun beds.
The Ria Formosa Nature reserve is a protected area that stretches for many miles along the coast from Faro to the Spanish border, and includes most of the beaches. The area is home to many wild birds and is situated on the route for birds migrating between Africa and Northern Europe, and is of world ornithological importance. The reception office for the reserve is only 10 minutes from Casa Jardim.

By Caspar on 14-Sep-2024Caspar, London, United Kingdom September 2024 We loved our stay at Casa Jardim! Possibly one of the most picturesque places we've ever stayed, the attention to detail of the pool area and garden is amazing. Jan and Nigel were very welcoming and provided lots of information about the local area. We really enjoyed nearby towns Olhao (for the amazing fish market) and Fuseta (which has a fantastic island beach). Highly recommend!
True diamond
By Bethany on 20-Jul-2024Jan and Nigel’s place is a true diamond. What a beautiful and relaxing place. The pool and surrounding area is a work of art. You can relax by the pool, admire the surroundings and get stuck into the BBQ. It’s just what we needed. Jan, Nigel and Gypsy are fantastic and friendly and have put together a folder of local recommendations, the beaches of the Eastern Algarve are unspoiled, uncrowded long white sand and are well worth exploring. The Ria Formosa is impressive. The fresh fish market is incredible, the quality of the tuna steaks and the giant prawns is unmatched. We had such a fabulous time here and would recommend it if you are thinking of visiting the Algarve. Thank you so much. Bethany. England.

Amazing
By Nicholas on 10-Jun-2023We had 6 absolutely amazing days at Jan and Nigel's place. We arrived late but they were nice to greet us in person and gave us a tour of the place and a lot of great recommendations for food and experiences. They were very accommodating and made sure we had some good days. The apartment is better than described and the pool and garden are the perfect place to relax. You can easily get around the area by car and it is close to amazing beaches and beautiful places. We would recommend staying here to everyone.
