Holiday Rentals in Castro Marim - A Guide to Castro Marim
A holiday rental in Castro Marim municipality I believe will offer one of the best self-catering holidays in Portugal. Close to the banks of the Guadiana River in eastern Algarve, Castro Marim is an emerging holiday destination offering nature, culture and fun.
Learning from the mistakes made further west there are no high rise apartment blocks, most Castro Marim holiday rentals being villas and town houses. There are two lively beach resorts with several Castro Marim holiday rentals close to the fantastic beaches but that isn’t all there is to offer.
Just to the south of the main town, Castro Marim itself, is the Salt Marsh Natural Reserve. Any number of wetland species of birds can be seen including colourful flamingos. This large peaceful reserve makes a quiet contrast to the exciting beach resorts of Monte Gordo and Praia Verde but is within easy reach of both.
The number of golf courses is also increasing and quite a few Castro Marim holiday rentals are either near a golf course or even actually on a golfing complex.
