Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ZambujalVilla Zambujal is based in the idyllic region of Boliqueime, a location that is considered a hidden gem amongst experienced and affluent travellers. If you are looking to indulge in a bit of shopping during your stay, a trip to Albufeira Old Town is a must-do activity. This archaic fishing village is located just over 20-minutes away from the centre of Boliqueime and presents a varied range of boutique shops for guests to explore. Guests are encouraged to travel through the inspiring archways and meander through the cobbled streets, giving them a chance to absorb some of this intoxicating culture. This area is also teeming with paintings from local artists, further exemplifying the nuanced roots of this town. As a result, this is a great place to visit if you enjoy the simple act of people-watching with a fresh cup of coffee.
Boliqueime also hosts a plethora of awe-inspiring beaches, with Praia da Falesia being a fan favourite with both tourists and locals. This beach is more than 6km long and stretches all the way from Vilamoura to Olhos de Agua. The sea is remarkably clean and clear, making it ideal for swimming and other watersports activities. This landmark is also surrounded by a collection of red and orange cliffs, helping to contrast the sapphire blue nature of the sky. Praia da Falesia has also won a prestigious Blue Flag award for its utmost cleanliness and dedication to environmental conservation. This beach is situated around 15-minutes away from the centre of the region.
This entire region is centred around Boliqueime Church, which is just a stone’s throw away from the centre of the village. This iconic monument was first built in the 17th century and was deeply respected by the contemporary population. The church still holds a lot of importance to this day and is well recognised as a popular wedding venue. When the church is not filled with bustling newlyweds, it holds a moving ceremony every Sunday. Many previous guests believe that this is a must-see experience for tourists as it truly captures the collectivist and charming nature of this small village. The Priest is also said to speak very clear English, making it appropriate for tourists.

The authentic village atmosphere comes complete with cobbled streets and a square where locals gather to play dominoes. As for beaches and nightlife, Albufeira's within a 15-minute drive.
Despite the laidback setting, there are plenty of activities nearby to keep you on your toes. Vilamoura's just a 15-minute drive away and home to a championship golf course. Meanwhile, ocean lovers can make the most of parasailing from Albufeira's marina or head out on a dolphin-watching trip.
ABOUT THE ALGARVE
Though most people tend to see the Algarve as all about the beaches and a holiday on the Med, there’s far much more to it than that.
But while you’re enjoying one of our fantastic villas in Algarve, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we’ve put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!

In addition, the caves are also accompanied by a large pool of water, helping to add a few turquoise hues to this remarkable monument. Guests can also embark on a unique boat tour toward the caves, which also allows guests to take a swim in the nearby water.
If you are looking to experience a truly unconventional tourist attraction, a trip to Fiesa Sand City is a real treat. This impressive park is teeming with looming sand sculptures, creating a sense of joy and wonder in any guests who choose to walk through its doors. With around 55,000 tons of sand spread across 6 hectares of land, this establishment embodies a range of celebrities, scenes, and buildings. Guests will be able to see statues of Cristiano Ronaldo, Queen Elizabeth II, as well as Fernando Pessoa.

Children can embark on a varied assortment of attractions, such as a 20-metre drop slide, a high-speed wave pool, and a collection of high-adrenaline river adventures. There is also an Olympic-sized on-site for children to use at any point to cool off from the warming sun.

Even more beautiful than in the pictures
The house is even more beautiful than in the pictures. There's actually nothing wrong about it. And we've been traveling a lot. In any case, we recommend investing in pool heating at this time of year. Then the water is 28-29 degrees and the stay is not limited. Again, 5 stars for a really, really great house. I think we'll see each other again

We had a great time. The house is well equipped and very nicely furnished. The location was perfect for us. Not too far away from the sights and yet quiet. Supermarkets are nearby and the beach (Praia da Falésia) is a maximum of 15 minutes by car. We can only recommend it!
