Kwadalayo Art Quarters

Kwadalayo Art Quarters is a 2-bedroom apartment with exclusive artwork located in Vale da Amoreira, in Faro city. This pet-friendly apartment is less than a 10-minute drive from Faro International Airport.

Decorated by a professional interior designer with an art filled ambiance, in which various art works by the artist Marisa Mártires can be seen through out the apartment. It fits 4 people.

The name Kwadalayo comes from the South African roots of the artist / designer and owner.
In the Zulu language, 'KWA' means 'THE PLACE' and 'DALA' means 'CREATORS'. When we place them together, Kwadalayo means 'THE CREATORS PLACE'. Kwadalayo reflects our philosofy and our way of life.

This self-catering unit includes a fully equipped kitchen with a washing machine and a stove and oven. The living room features a dining area with table and chairs and a plush sofa to relax after a tour through the city.

The apartment is located nearby the 738 roundabout, the popular land mark which marks the end of the famous "Estrada Nacional N2 (EN2)", the longest Portuguese road and the only one in Europe that crosses a country along its entire length.

Faro historic centre is a 15-minute walk, as well as the shopping street, Rua de Santo António. Ferries to Deserta and Farol Island depart from this area in the summer, and guests can enjoy a boat tour through Ria Formosa Nature Park.

Faro Bus Station is within a 20-minute walk and the train station is 2/3 minutes further. The city is served by a mini bus transport system, and there is a bus stop a few steps away from Kwadalayo Art Quarters.

Appartement Faro

Propriétaire sympathique appartement très correct bien propre rien ne manque pour cuisiner et pour le linge de maison. Logement bien placé par rapport à la ville de Faro (marché, supermarché à coté a 3 minutes a pied, centre ville 5 minutes en voiture). Il y a quelques voisins un peu bruyants et les ordures ménagères sont ramassées en pleine nuit ce qui occasionne quelques bruits.Sinon cette location est très fiable et correspond aux photos de l annonce.
