There is a great local restaurant specializing in sea food less than five minutes walk away. Its incredibly popular with the Portuguese and with foreigners living locally, but is unknown to tourists.

What is there to do ? There are no organised activities near-by. However, with the lagoon and salt-marshes on your doorstep, its a great place for bird watching. Artists may also find fruitful motifs in the boats and people working along the shore, the local houses, and the landscape of the Ria Formosa. The area is mainly flat and is traversed by many dirt roads, making it suitable for walkers, runners and cyclists. Do we need to hire a car ? Yes. How far is the airport ? Casa Rosa is just a 20-30 minute drive from Faro airport. Can we smoke in the house ? No. Ashtrays are provided for smoking outside. Is there anything else we should know about Casa Rosa ?
