“Santa Luzia is the perfect place when you want to spend a wonderful time at the Algarve off the beaten tourist tracks. it is a lovely little village, not far from the Spanish border. The old center along the coast is surrounded by new apartment buildings, but still very quiet. one of the reasons might be the fact that it takes a short and inexpensive and really impressive ride on a ferry boat across a natural reserve to get to the beach. The apartment is located on the top floor of a little community which also offers a nice pool, if you don't want to go to the beach every day. Only a few minutes from Santa Luzia there is Tavira, a lively town with lots of things to see and to do. We met Rocio and Esteban in a cute typical tapas bar in Sevilla where they live to pick up the keys. They are lovely people and made sure that this exchange turned out to be one of the nicest we ever had. And we had more than 40 exchanges so far...”
