Hotel Real Marina Residence (Olhão, Portugal)

Overlooking Ria Formosa, Real Marina Residence is within easy walking distance from old town, the harbour and the local fresh market. Restaurants, shops, bars, and lively nighttime entertainment are close and convenient. Guests remark that the views from the property across the harbor are constantly entertaining and enjoyable.

Guests remark that the two and three-bedroom apartments are modern, spacious and pleasingly decorated with a bright and cheerful beach-themed décor, comfortable furnishings, and all the amenities required for an enjoyable and memorable stay. Guests especially appreciate the well-equipped kitchenettes. Guests comment that having the flexibility of easy self-catering stretched the holiday budget and was a real convenience when traveling with small children. There is a mini-market and a grocery store located within a short walk so it is no problem to access fresh produce and food staples. Returning guests note that the amenities improve on every visit, mentioning upgrades in kitchen equipment and supplies and remarking that every time they visit, the venue appears “brand new”, spotlessly clean with windows sparkling and surfaces shining.

Guests advise that soaking up the sun around the rooftop swimming pool with a cool beverage is a relaxing way to spend an afternoon. There are plenty of sun loungers and parasols and the views of the harbor and seacoast are spectacular.

Guests mention that almost everything is supplied in the kitchenettes, however, there is no hand soap or dishwasher tablets provided. Guests said it really did not detract from their enjoyment of the apartment, it was just a small frustration, and supplies are available at the nearby market.
