You’ll find this pastel yellow villa within walking distance of a number of secluded sandy coves and a short drive from Albufeira’s charming Old Town. Spend mornings sippings espressos in a curb-side cafe in the Jardim Publico de Albufeira before making your way over to Praia dos Alemães for a refreshing sea swim and a spot of sunbathing on the crescent of golden sand. Back at home, an open-concept living space invites you to sit back and relax with a good book in hand. We loved the chic orange and grey colour scheme and stylish contemporary furnishings. When you’re ready for something to eat, the fully-equipped kitchen has everything you need for rustling up Portuguese-inspired dishes – take advantage of the glorious weather and feast outside on the terrace. After whiling away the hours on a lounger by the pool, reconvene on the patio for a glass or two of green wine as the sky swirls dusty pink.

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.
