A chic but homely sanctuary with sensational vistas of the luscious Mediterranean vegetation and seaside beyond, this villa is so much more than your Algarve base – it’s the ultimate home from home, housing everything you could ever dream of and more. We love the way this home is perfectly private - super spacious and all within its own pristinely manicured grounds - but equally, it’s really well connected with everything going on beyond its gates. Quinta do Lago’s best–loved golf courses are perched just minutes away, with Vale do Lobo’s bars, spas and restaurants a justly short distance from the villa. So, if you do manage to peel yourself away from your exclusive paradise, you’ll never be short of things to see and do. The inside of this home is entirely unique – a real fusion of old and new with a curation of decorative artsy pieces and warming touches dotted from here to there. No two rooms have the same look or feel, making for an extraordinary place to enjoy the Algarve in all its glory. We’re particularly fond of the cosy living space that leads out onto the terrace – it’s just so inviting! But on the whole, the sparkliest jewel in the crown here has to be the pool. As well as a fully–furnished terrace, balcony and open–air dining setup, as we venture outside, there’s also an aqua–blue pool just waiting for you to dip your toes in. Encircled with towering palm trees, sun loungers and parasols, its crystalline waters are blanketed by sunlight, but surrounded by shadier spots for those seeking some respite from the rays. Begin each morning with a silky, milky coffee and a scrumptious buffet breakfast on the terrace before plunging into the pool for a rejuvenating dip. After that, the Algarve is your oyster!

Local guide


About Loulé

Algarve's largest municipality, Loulé, is a tale of two halves. Along the coast, you'll find Portugal's foremost holiday resorts – buzzy Albufeira and the more laidback Quarteira – loved for their sweeping shores hugged by dramatic red sandstone sea cliffs and endless sunshine. If you're after somewhere a little more exclusive, the seafront resorts of Quinta do Lago, Vilamoura, and Vale do Lobo – famed for their world-class golf courses...
