Who It's For
Families settling in for a slow week, walkers and swimmers up with the sun, or anyone who'd rather not climb a stair on holiday — the house was made to suit all three.
The Space
The apartment opens onto its terrace and the shared pool. Inside, whitewashed walls, warm wood, and Portuguese tilework keep everything cool and calm.
Terrace & Pool
Step straight out to a private patio with sun beds, a dining table for six, and a shaded lounge corner. The shared pool sits a few steps below, kept clean and quiet — the water holds the warmth until evening.
Living Room
An open living room with comfortable sofas, a woven bench, and a working fireplace for cooler evenings out of season. Big windows pull in the morning light; the tiled floors stay cool through the heat of the day.
Kitchen & Dining
A full kitchen with oven and hob, dishwasher, washing machine, a tall fridge-freezer, and a Nespresso machine. Fish from the harbour, produce from the village market — it cooks itself.
The glass dining table seats six, under a woven rattan pendant, with the fireplace at its back.
Master Bedroom
A generous double bed, a soft sage wall, fitted wardrobes, and room to breathe. It stays cool and dark for late mornings.
Twin Bedroom
Two comfortable single beds looking onto the garden — easy for children, friends, or anyone who likes their own space.
Family Bathroom
Warm-toned tiling, a full bathtub with shower, and a wide vanity — the one for a long soak after a day on the coast.
Second Bathroom
A second, quick-in-quick-out bathroom with a walk-in shower — no queue for the beach in the morning.

Burgau in the Algarve.
Most guests who come for the first time fall in love forever. ♡
What we'd tell a friend arriving for the first time — where to swim, where to walk, where to eat, and where to point the car on a slow day. This corner of the Algarve rewards the unhurried.
Climate
March. June. August. October.
Summers that warm without the deadly heat of the inland Algarve, and winters that stay mild and bright. The Atlantic keeps Burgau even — you can swim in June and walk the cliffs in shirtsleeves in January.

Choosing Your Base
Weighing up the Western Algarve usually comes down to four places. Burgau is the smallest and least known — and, for many, the reason people return.

Burgau Quiet fishing village |
Praia da Luz Family resort bay |
Lagos Historic harbour town |
Aljezur Wild west coast |

|---|---|---|---|---|

{{ row.burgauDots }} | {{ row.luzDots }} | {{ row.lagosDots }} | {{ row.aljezurDots }} |
More dots mean a stronger showing — our own read, honestly kept. Lagos wins on nightlife and sights; Aljezur on raw wildness. For a calm, walkable base by a real village beach, Burgau is hard to beat.
Getting Your Bearings
Around the House
Equipped for Everything
To cook, to rest with the children, to play, to relax, and — when it can't wait — to work. Kept up to date so you can travel light.
Sun & Water
The pool is a few steps from the terrace and the sand an eight-minute walk downhill — the house sits just above the water, minutes from the ocean.
Settling In
Cool in summer, warm by the fire in winter, with the everyday things already here so you can travel light.
With the Children
Gated, single-level and a flat walk to the beach, with the little extras that make travelling with small ones lighter — just ask when you book.
Ultra Easy Access
Everything sits on one level, a few flat steps from the car — thought through for families arriving with pushchairs and for guests who would rather not climb a stair on holiday.
In the Kitchen
A full kitchen, and two tables to gather at — the glass dining table indoors, and the long table out on the terrace for slow evenings.

Wi-Fi
Free WiFi runs throughout the apartment. The router sits in the living room — if the signal ever drops, a thirty-second power cycle usually sorts it. Network details are on the printed house guide, or just ask us.
Network name & password
Printed on the house guide, or ask us on arrival.
If You Really Need To
A quiet corner for the mornings you can't quite switch off — grab a good coffee, then close the laptop and go to the beach.
At the Door
A private space of your own — a real luxury in a village of narrow lanes.
