Ideal for families, this villa in the Algarve is a relaxing base. It’s in the resort of Quinta da Balaia in the centre of the Algarve, a twenty-minute walk from beaches including Santa Eulalia and Oura. There are golf courses nearby, and the hustle and bustle of the city centre is just 1 kilometre away. There’s plenty to see and do in the vicinity, so you’ll be grateful to have such a calm space to return home to. We love the private pool and the alfresco dining setup, which makes spending time together outside a breeze.
