Four Seasons Fairways in Almancil, open May–August.
Brilliant here as always.
Spent a fantastic two weeks at end of March.
Lovely pool, well equipped gym, superb walks around the Rio Formosa nature reserve and adjoining golf courses.
Took advantage of the excellent surrounding cycling facilities.
Lovely property with spacious, well-appointed units. Our unit had a pool (unheated, unusable in December, but nice and well-kempt). Some of the decor was starting to show some wear and the second (downstairs) bedroom smelled strongly of damp, but, on the whole, it is a lovely high-end property.
