Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This quintessential Portuguese home is the best of both worlds. Nestled in a secluded spot on the glittering Lisbon coast in Aroeira, it's just a short drive from the bustling capital, while still feeling extremely tranquil and remote because of its immediate village surroundings. And yes, some of the most beautiful beaches and finest golf courses in the country are right on your doorstep. Amongst its luscious and verdant gardens, the home offers stylish outdoor living – the dappled shade, sunny terraces, wonderful hammocks and lazy loungers ensure you’ll quickly slip into the slow-paced local way of life. The interior of this pretty shuttered home has all the modern comforts and furnishings in place, including wi-fi, smart TVs and bright French windows, that feel contemporary but are still in keeping with the natural and modest charm of the home.

About Algarve
With more than 300 days of sunshine per year and over 100 beaches dotted along its coastline, the Algarve is one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations. The party scene is alive and kicking around the capital, Faro, Albufeira, and Praia da Rocha should you want it, but there’s so much more to this sun-baked corner of Portugal than the high-rise resorts of the coast’s centre.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
