Santa Helena enjoys prime location nestling in a village in the countryside yet less than 5 minutes drive to beach, shopping, restaurants, golf. Although the village itself is rustic and quiet with a church, two restaurants, a 'local' bar and a mini-market, the busy resorts of Altura (5 mins), Monte Gordo (5 mins), Manta Rota (7 mins), (Cabanas 10 mins), and Tavira (15 mins) are only a short drive away. Vila Real da San Antonio, a large frontier town built on the banks of the Guadiana river is also closeby (5 - 10 mins). You can be in Spain in just 8 minutes from the house!
