Outside
Vivenda Marinho:
The
locals understand well how to live in the lovely
but hot climate of the Algarve. Vivenda Marinho
is designed to stay cool, and in best Portuguese
tradition has a second kitchen outside in the
sheltered north-facing patio garden.
The
south (Sun!!) facing garden has been extended,
and is the perfect sun trap, summer or winter.
Guests
at Vivenda Marinho therefore can enjoy both the
traditional and the modern ways to enjoy fun in
the sun!
Cool
patio garden:
The cool tiled patio area is traditional
Portuguese. The locals live outside in the summer,
barbequing fresh caught fish, enjoying regional
chilled wines and beers. They are a friendly people,
and love to share their local knowledge and hospitality.
The Algarve sun can be very hot, hence the garden
patio (although north facing), has a large roofed
section, where our guests can enjoy meals outside
in comfort.
