Villa Susana ~ Heated Pool* ~ Fast Wi-fi ~ 6 + 4 cots - Booking 2027 & 2028 NOW!

Important Booking Information

For stays between 24 July 2027 and 28 August 2027, please enquire or make your booking based on 2 adults only. This will ensure that the correct rental price is displayed.

For all other dates, please book using the actual number of guests staying.

Please see the information below for an explanation of our pricing policy.

If you would like additional guests to stay for part of your holiday, please contact us before booking so we can provide the appropriate pricing.

Our Pricing Policy

Outside the main summer holiday period (late July to late August), we offer a reduced base rental rate for up to two guests. A per person, per night supplement is then added for each additional guest.

This pricing structure allows couples and smaller groups to enjoy the villa at a more affordable rate, without paying for bedrooms and facilities they do not need.

During the peak summer season (late July to late August), the villa is charged at a single fixed weekly rate, regardless of the number of guests staying (up to the maximum occupancy).

The additional guest supplement applies to all guests using a bed, including children. However, babies and toddlers sleeping in a cot stay free of charge.

If you are booking outside the peak summer period, please include:

All adults
All children who will be using a bed
Please do not include babies or toddlers who will be sleeping in a cot

Instead, simply let us know if you require a travel cot and/or high chair for each child, and we will be happy to provide them

Villa Susana is nestled just off the N124, east of São Bartolomeu de Messines, in a peaceful and private setting with stunning south-facing views stretching towards the Algarve coastline.

The villa offers three comfortable bedrooms, a private swimming pool, sun terrace, formal gardens, and a covered barbecue and dining area—perfect for relaxing with family and friends. Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen and everything you need for a comfortable self-catering holiday.

Ideally located, Villa Susana is just 20 minutes from the beautiful Algarve beaches, 15 minutes from several excellent golf courses, and 20 minutes from shopping centres and local attractions, making it an excellent base for exploring the region.

*Pool heating is available for €22 per day.

Villa Susana offers three comfortable bedrooms, including two with en-suite shower rooms, while the third bedroom is served by a spacious family bathroom.

The bright, open-plan living area provides a welcoming space to relax, with comfortable seating, a dining area, and a well-equipped kitchen designed for effortless holiday living.

Outside, you'll find a covered terrace for dining and relaxing, complete with a traditional Portuguese barbecue. A spacious sun terrace and a generous private swimming pool provide the perfect setting to unwind while enjoying the spectacular views across the Algarve countryside towards the beautiful south coast.

Air conditioning is provided in two of the three bedrooms. The third bedroom is located at the rear of the villa, where it remains naturally cooler during the summer months, providing a comfortable night's sleep.

Villa Susana is a wonderful holiday retreat where family and friends can relax, reconnect, and enjoy everything the Algarve has to offer. Whether you're spending lazy days by the pool, dining under the stars, or exploring the nearby beaches, golf courses and charming towns, the villa provides the perfect setting for an unforgettable holiday.

Villa Suzana was the perfect holiday home for us. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and the magnificent view from the terrace. The furnishings are comfortable, and everything we needed was provided. We especially appreciated that the beds were fully made up (not just a blanket with a sheet). It was just as comfortable as sleeping at home . Many thanks also for the initial stocking of the refrigerator. After a long journey, we were very grateful for the groceries and the "Super Bock" beer . We had a wonderful time and would love to come back again soon.

Beautiful location

We really enjoyed our stay. The property location was great for us. There are markets very nearby and it's a 20-40 minute drive to so many different things in the Algarve region. The view is great of the surrounding orchard fields and they pool is deeper than you might expect. We are very happy with chosing this property for our vacation!

A super villa in an excellent position

Villa Susana is a beautifully presented and maintained property, tucked away so as to give complete privacy but only five minutes or so by car from the Continental Supermarket in Messines. The pool is a joy and I can really recommend the 'heated' option as the water temperature is perfect - simply didn't want or need, to come out!

Lovely spacious and well maintained villa in a beautiful quiet location away from the hustle and bustle of the main Algarve resorts. The support from the owners was excellent.

Relaxing break

A great villa made special by the wonderful views for miles around that really helped us to unwind. The outdoor area was perfect for eating and enjoying a barbecue. The pool was great for a family to enjoy and the mixed depths really made for good swimming practice. It is also a nice distance from the property so that those not engaging can still watch what is happening but also relax without the screaming and the splashing! Finally, Alex was a great host and so helpful and responsive to any questions which took all the hassle away. We would definitely recommend.

lovely family home in a perfect rural setting

We were only here for a short stay of 4 days but we got beautiful weather and were able to make the most of the gorgeous outdoor setting. Stunning views and so peaceful. We wanted to rest and recharge and were able to do that so easily. The villa itself is very spacious with 3 large bathrooms and air con in each bedroom. The kitchen is fully equipped and the Intermarche in SB Messines which is about a 10 min drive away has everything you need. Alex offers a comprehensive folder of information available online before you arrive. Every detail and question is covered. We felt very looked after and tried the restaurants she recommended which were fab. We would return without hesitation.

About the host

Hosted by Alex

Host profile image
Villa Susana is owned by four members of the same family. Together, we also own Villa Quina (Property 1057836), our second holiday villa in the Algarve.

We manage all bookings ourselves, so throughout the enquiry and booking process, you will always deal directly with one of the owners. This means you can expect personal service, clear communication, and first-hand knowledge of the villa

Why they chose this property

Step onto the terrace with a glass of something special, take a deep breath, and soak in the breathtaking views. Whether bathed in sunshine by day or under a canopy of stars at night, it's a moment you'll never tire of

Some holidays are measured by the places you visit. Others are remembered for the moments you share.

At Villa Susana, mornings begin with coffee on the terrace as the sun rises over the countryside and the distant coastline. The only sounds are birdsong and the gentle rustle of the breeze through the trees.

Days are spent exactly as you choose. Relax beside the pool with a good book, enjoy long family lunches in the shade, explore the beaches and villages of the Algarve, or simply do nothing at all.

As evening falls, light the traditional Portuguese barbecue, gather everyone around the outdoor table, and watch the sky turn shades of gold, pink and orange. Share stories, laugh together, and raise a glass as the lights begin to twinkle along the distant coast.

Later, retreat to the roof terrace to admire the stars, enjoy the peaceful surroundings, and savour the quiet that makes Villa Susana so special.

These are the moments that stay with you long after your holiday has ended—the simple pleasures, shared with family and friends, in a place you'll want to return to again and again.

What makes this property unique

Villa Susana enjoys a wonderfully peaceful, away-from-it-all setting, with spectacular south-facing views across the Algarve countryside to the coastline beyond. From both the ground-floor terrace and the spacious roof terrace, you can take in breathtaking panoramic views stretching from east to west across one of Portugal's most beautiful landscapes.

Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee as the sun rises, relaxing by the pool during the day, or watching the colours of the sunset melt into the evening sky, the views from Villa Susana are simply unforgettable
