Sold freehold and fully furnished, this 2-bedroom and 1-bathroom penthouse has an enviable location within easy walking distance of the two pool areas, and of course the beautiful Algodoeiro beach: also known as Bikini Beach - beyond. Set in the tropical gardens of the 5* resort of Melia Tortuga - one of the most sought-after locations on Sal - this apartment has the restaurants, bars, spa and gym within a few minutes' level walk.

Hallway leading to
Large open plan living & dining area
15.22m² balcony
Well-equipped kitchen including Hotpoint washing machine
Frosted doors leading to a small balcony, ideal for storage and drying
1 double bedroom with aircon & TV

Though there are five restaurants in the resort and many more on the beach and in the other Melia hotels, this penthouse is well set up for self caterers. The fully-equipped kitchen includes a 4-ring hob, conventional and microwave oven, washing machine, fridge with small freezer and ample cupboard space. Everything down to towels and teaspoons is included in the price.
The apartment is currently in the hotel rental scheme and so is kept in excellent condition. As the Freehold owner, you are entitled to use the apartment for five weeks of the year. For the rest of the year, it is used as a hotel suite. The hotel takes care of everything from the marketing to guest welcome, cleaning, laundry and even electricity and water bills. You are entitled to receive a share of the income, and the management are currently offering either a fixed income or a profit share.
Given sufficient notice, you could take the apartment out of the scheme, to use it whenever you like: as a holiday home, winter or year-round residence, or you could rent it out privately to long-term tenants or short term to family and friends.
Here, on the west coast of Sal, with the famous white sands and clear turquoise warm waters of Algodoeiro Beach, Melia Tortuga is a low-rise, laid back development set amidst lush, mature tropical gardens. There are miles of white sand beaches right on your doorstep, as well as safe swimming and snorkeling almost all year round in the warm waters of Bikini Beach.
