The owners are safety conscious and feel that their property is not suitable for younger children (around 12 and under) which we ask our guests to respect when making a booking. ➤ Parties and other disturbances are not accepted. Please get in touch with us before booking if you’re unsure if you fit this profile, so we can see whether this accommodation fits your travel plans. \## Interaction This home is in the hands of Rental Valley, a property management team who works hard to ensure your stay is smooth and comfortable! We are available should you have any questions or requests during your stay. From one week before arrival, we’ll send you our rental guide. This holds all the helpful information to help you arrive safely and much more. So please read it carefully before your arrival and let us know if you need anything or have any questions. \## Neighborhood Vale da Ribeira Residences is located in Mexilhoeira Grande, a quiet area of the Algarve, with the hills of Monchique to the north and coastal towns of Lagos and Portimão to the south. Only 10 minutes from the beach and 45 minutes drive from Faro Airport. The little towns of Mexilhoeira Grande and Odiaxere are just around the corner, and each has small supermarkets and restaurants to cater to your needs when you want to avoid the bigger towns. The chicken restaurant and the pizzeria on the main street of Odiaxere are famous takeaway places in the area. For a truly local restaurant experience nearby, go to A Curva in Mexilhoeira Grande. The nearest big supermarket is located in Torre's brand new shopping area, between Odiaxere and Lagos. OTHER THINGS TO DO IN THE AREA: Nature Discover a variety of scenic walks in the surrounding area. Go on a cave tour at the coastline of the Algarve or enjoy a day trip to watch dolphins in their natural habitat. Golf Internationally renowned for its variety of world-class golf courses and its year-round sunny climate, the Algarve has much to offer golfers. With more than 40 courses available, it’s no surprise the region has become synonymous with golf, with thousands of tourists flocking here every year. We prefer Palmares Golf at 4.8km. Algarve International Circuit Commonly referred to as Portimão Circuit, is a 4.653 km race circuit located in Portimão, Algarve region, Portugal. The development includes a karting track, off-road track, technology park, five-star hotel, sports complex and apartments. Wakeboard Vale Da Ribeira is located close to a renowned wakeboard training ground suited for beginners and professionals. Enjoy your day here, and challenge yourself by trying to complete the obstacle course. Kitesurf Enjoy your kitesurf session at the beautiful lagoon of Alvor with perfect wind conditions. Make it an unforgettable memory. Surf & Paddle Choose from the southern or western coast of the Algarve to ride some of the best waves in Europe. There are several packages and opportunities to take a class or an intensive course in Surf, bodyboard and stand-up paddle. \## Transit Although you can find trains, buses and uber/taxi services in the area, a (hire) car is highly recommended for this accommodation as the house is in stand-alone urbanisation. Parking is free and easy next to the accommodation and free parking is readily available in most towns and beach areas. \## Notes ➤ Check-in time: 4 - 10pm. Check-in after 10 pm is possible but at your own risk as our support team might not be available for assistance at that hour. ➤ Check-out time: before 10 am SEF REQUIREMENTS.
