Location
About the surrounding area of Alporchinhos LaranjaSet back from the town of Armação de Pêra, Alporchinhos Laranja is located on the outskirts of a quiet residential area of Porches, the adjacent parish. While your location is nice and quiet, that doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the fun. In fact, Alporchinhos Laranja’s location makes it the ideal option for holidaymakers who like to be close enough to the action to join in but like being able to retreat to their own space when they want to step back.
You’re just five minutes away from the town of Armação de Pêra, where you’ll be able to find grocery stores, pharmacists, bars, shops and restaurants. It’s also next to the wonderful Praia de Armação de Pêra beach, which has been granted Blue Flag status. You’re also just a short drive away from several other beaches, including the similarly popular Praia de Nossa Senhora da Rocha. Both beaches have Blue Flag status; however, Praia de Nossa Senhora da Rocha is slightly more quiet than Praia de Armação de Pêra as it’s further away from the town centre and is a touch larger, meaning people can spread out more.
To get to Alporchinhos Laranja, you’ll likely drive in from Faro Airport, which will take around 40 minutes.

THE REGION
Carvoeiro has always been known for its beautiful coastline, adorned with cliffs, coves and incredible sandy beaches stretching all the way along to Albufeira. These days, however, there is a lot more going on in this charming town than just waves hitting the sand (although that’s certainly still a highlight).
In the past few years Carvoeiro has developed to accommodate for the growing number of tourists who are curious to see what the fuzz is all about, and the town continues to get livelier and livelier each summer. While it has kept its character and remains exquisitely peaceful, there are also plenty of modern amenities and loads of exciting activities in the area. The only thing Carvoeiro won’t provide is a good party, but there are other parts of the Algarve which are perfect for that.
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!
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesAlporchinhos Laranja is a great place to stay if you’re travelling with kids. Kids of all ages love how spacious the villa is, and if they have friends joining them, they love being able to share rooms during the stay.
Around the villa, kids love getting competitive at the pool and ping pong tables with their family and friends. They also love being able to use the private swimming pool for however long they want, whenever they want.
High-speed wifi is available throughout the villa, making it easy for kids to get online and stay connected with friends and family back home. They can also use the internet to stream movies, shows and music on their devices or play online games with ease.
With so many fantastic beaches just a short drive away from the villa, you can treat the kids to beach time whenever you want. No matter their age, kids love to play in the golden sands and swim in the calm, clean waters of the Algarvian coast.
Further afield, there are lots to see, do and get involved in, from historical tours around Portimao and Lagos (both less than 45 minutes away) to explore the area by boat from Albufeira.
More adventurous kids in your group may enjoy attractions such as Slide and Splash, a large water park just 15 minutes from Alporchinhos Laranja. Don’t be put off if there are people in your group who don’t like large rides; the park has plenty of other attractions like wave pools and a splash zone for young children.
