This lovely villa in the desirable Algarve will leave you completely calm. Valle de Parra is ideal if you want to be in a quieter part of this famous location while yet being close to the action in Albufeira. Gather your loved ones as soon as you arrive and unwind around the gorgeous private pool. When lunchtime rolls around, toss some fresh local produce on the grill for poolside alfresco dining. With patio doors and bright balconies in each of the four bedrooms, there will be no bickering over who gets which of the traditional rooms. From here, you can easily visit Portugal's incredible beaches. Praia do Camino is a golden, sandy beach tucked away in a cove, while Meia Praia boasts a popular boardwalk and more than two kilometres of coastline for you to discover. Explore the Algarve on four wheels, along dirt roads, stopping in the countryside to appreciate the tranquil side of the Algarve before heading for some nibbles. You'll be pleased to learn that Albufeira offers nearly every form of international cuisine, and if you enjoy ocean-fresh fish, you've come to the right place!

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.
