Company information

Arabi is managed by two brothers, Bruno And Paulo Pereira and has about three employees who are always willing to receive you in the best way.

Property information

Arabi is one of the oldest places that followed the entire development of the city of Portimão but never lost its originality. At Arabi we have several photographs that show the presence of the place since the 30s in a square that is and will always be the most beautiful and traditional area of the city.

Neighbourhood information

Arabi is located in the most central and attractive area of ​​the city of Portimão. Nearby you have the famous "Tempo" theater, which has a rich and varied cultural agenda, as well as the "Manuel Teixeira Gomes" museum and the "Sardinha" museum, which have received several international awards. Arabi is close to the best restaurants and bars in the city of Portimão as well as the main church and the always appealing shopping street. The main sea or land excursions leave in front of Arabi, which makes planning your vacation a lot easier and delights the children. Located in the busiest area of ​​the city, the police are always around which makes this place very safe at any time and under any circumstances.
