The porch at the back of the house is where your getaway can come to life. Surrounded by privacy-providing walls, you can get right into the massive outdoor pool, large enough to host any and all guests that venture with you. Or take it easy and relax on sun-loungers that deck the pool, whilst you sip on something cool and refreshing. To top off evenings, make sure you make a spread of grilled foods courtesy of the barbecue and sink area and serve it on the alfresco dining table.
One bedroom sits on the ground floor, offering two single beds and an en-suite bathroom, especially handy for those who don't want to travel up and down the stairs.

Location:
With cities full of history, hundreds of miles of coastal lines and beaches and some of the best cuisines across the continent, Portugal is a spectacular place to enjoy an escape from the mundane. Visit, castles, ports, seasides and outstanding restaurants where you will find foods that will become one of your favourites instantly!
Albufeira is one of the best places to be along Portugal's southern coast. Blessed with a delightful climate, any activity you choose to experience will be blessed with the perfect conditions. Spend lazy days on beaches and marinas, enjoy activities on both land and sea as well as a buzzing nightlife for you to truly live your best life!
A less built-up beach lies just under ten minutes away from the villa, Baleeira Beach, where you can relax and take it easy with your beachwear and food or for a beach where all you need to bring is your swimwear is Praia dos Alemães. Beautiful golden sand meets the Atlantic Ocean, providing darling settings to enjoy the climate and views across the endless waters. You can grab a cocktail, a beer or a fresh juice in the midday sun as you relax on hired sun-loungers and take it easy. The beach offers restaurants on the shores, so you don't even have to mover too much for some peri-peri chicken!
Head through the town and centre square and watch the day to day life of the residents and business owners here, as you traverse cobbled steps and narrow streets of old. You can visit some of the more cultural sites in the town top, while you digest your meals. Visit the doorway of the Church of São Sebastião, a look at Manueline architecture and the archway in the Travessa da Igreja Velha, evidence of the Moorish presence once in the region.
At night, Albufeira bursts to life with a selection of nightclubs and bars that are open all night. Enjoy shaking a leg until early hours of the morning and finishing off the night at restaurants and stalls open serving delicious warming and revitalising dishes to either fuel you for more or help you sleep at home with a warm belly!
