Meet Rita, the owner of Luzico Algarve in Boliqueime. With a background in graphic design and a love for photography, she has created a unique accommodation that honors her family history. Luzico combines old-world charm with modern hospitality. Discover the special features and unforgettable experiences this place has to offer.
My name is Rita, I am 42 years old, and I live in Boliqueime, Algarve. I am the owner of Luzico Algarve.
I am a dreamer with two beautiful children and a passion for travel. After studying graphic design, I became fascinated by photography and creating beautiful spaces. The entire creative process makes me happy, especially creating images and environments that resonate with others.
Luzico was born as a tribute from my sister and me to our grandparents. It was their first home, and our father was born here. We wanted to leave something special for our family. The name Luzico is a combination of our grandparents' names: Luz and Xico.
The construction was completed in 2020, but we only started renting in 2021. During the three years prior, we worked on permits and projects. We reused some furniture from our grandparents and added new pieces designed by ourselves and local craftsmen.
The rich family history surrounding the house makes it special. It was a beautiful and emotional moment to show our grandmother the new house.
Our accommodation has a calm, familial atmosphere, with a simple design that radiates hospitality yet still has plenty of personality.
I especially treasure our dining area on the terrace. It is an enchanting place with a peaceful family atmosphere and a simple, welcoming design, surrounded by lush nature.
It is located in a small, beautiful village with mountain views. The sunsets are breathtaking, and the location offers a serene environment.
We utilize solar panels for heating water and have set up a designated area for waste separation for our guests.
Our motivation comes from the desire to share the beauty of Luzico with others. We want as many people as possible to enjoy this special place.
Guests will create beautiful family memories in a cozy home surrounded by nature. The accommodation is only 15 minutes away from the most beautiful beaches and towns in the Algarve, making it ideal for both relaxation and exploration.
Our guests always take a little piece of Luzico with them. We ensure a pleasant experience and share our history with them. The Mediterranean garden and pool with terrace provide the perfect setting to enjoy the sun and the blue sky.
One guest once said, "Rita, we want to come back. When we return, it truly feels like home."
We recommend visiting the beautiful beaches in the Algarve, taking boat trips, and exploring nature walks. Don't forget to discover our local gastronomy at some of the best restaurants in the region.
