Location

This apartment is set in the beautiful, friendly resort of Senhora da Rocha where white-washed villas and apartments sit amidst beautiful landscaped gardens. The resort has many amenities including restaurants and swimming pools, and is just 50m from a lovely sandy beach.

Many of the apartments in Senhora da Rocha are arranged in small rows of typically white-washed houses set within beautiful landscaped gardens. Whilst each villa has private and spacious accommodation, this may not suit those seeking complete privacy and tranquillity.

Senhora da Rocha means 'Lady of the Rock' and is symbolic of the beautiful cliff-top location of this small, friendly resort. The beach of the same name, is just 50m away. From the generous parking area and sea-front restaurants on the cliff-top, steps lead down to the beautiful golden sands of Praia Senhora da Rocha. (Please supervise children on the way down). Here, the gentle turquoise waters are sheltered by dramatic cliffs to either side. There is a small beachside cafe and plenty of room to build a sand-castle kingdom.

Perched atop the cliff-top to the east is the Nossa Senhora da Rocha, a beautiful white-washed church, sat gazing out to sea. A natural tunnel in the rocks (or a short walk along the road) will bring you to the neighbouring Praia do Pescadore or 'Fisherman's beach' where colourful fishing boats are often pulled up onto the shore.

The popular beach resort of Armacao de Pera is only 3km away. Senhora da Rocha run regular shuttle buses there and back, throughout the day. There is a sandy stretch of beach ideal for long walks, and giving plenty of room for everyone (and it can get busy in high season). The beachfront does have several high-rise apartments, the upside of which is the vast array of cafes, shops and restaurants to serve all your needs. And should you wish to leave the peace of the villa, it has some lively nightlife. Here there is also a hypermarket - ideal for stocking up on fresh meat and fish for the barbecue.

The site has three all-weather tennis courts. During the summer season, coaching sessions are available for all age groups in either the Maxi (17+ years) or Mini (6-16 year-olds) clubs. In addition there are separate sessions for Ladies, Mens and Mixed doubles play. The courts, rackets and balls are all available for hire when not being used for orgnaised sessions.

About 4km away is the nearest golf course of Salgados, an 18-hole course; one of the newest in the Algarve. It has many lakes and most of the holes are influenced by water hazards. Guests of Senhora da Rocha can enjoy special discounted green fees.

During the main season you can join the Scuba Tour diving school and learn the basics in just two introductory courses. If you wish, you can then enroll in advanced classes which would result in an internationally recognized certificate. Available to all over the age of 10.
