This modern, comfortable home occupies half of the split-level villa designed by its two Dutch owners, situated on 5,500 m² of private land. They occasionally stay on the top floor of the rear section, but thanks to the villa’s layout and the difference in elevation, everyone enjoys complete privacy. Exclusively for you: a 90-square-meter front house, an enclosed east-facing terrace, a west-facing patio, a swimming pool, a hammock terrace, and a jeu-de-boules court. Spacious, bright living room with a fully equipped kitchen, a lounge with a Smart TV, and sliding doors leading to the east-facing terrace. You’re welcome to barbecue on the enclosed west-facing patio. The master bedroom (180 cm wide bed) also has access to the east-facing terrace. The second spacious bedroom has two comfortable single beds and a sink. There is one luxury bathroom. From your east-facing terrace, you can walk to the pool at the back, which offers a beautiful view of the hills. The first section of the pool is 40 cm deep: ideal for children or for relaxing. Would you like to come with 6 people? See listing 64437. You will always be the sole tenant. Pool heating is available from April 1 to October 31.

Nature and surroundings

Although the villa appears to be surrounded by nature, it is actually very centrally located, at the edge of a small village with a church, a shepherd, two simple eateries, and next to a nature park. A 5-minute drive takes you to São Brás de Alportel, where you’ll find a market, supermarkets, and restaurants. Faro Airport is 20 km away, and beautiful beaches are also within a half-hour drive. The house is situated in a vast Natura 2000 area with olive trees, pine trees, cork oaks, and eucalyptus trees. The villa has 20 solar panels, a solar water heater, and a well with filtered drinking water. The pool is treated with magnesium, which is very good for the skin and hypoallergenic. From your pool terrace, you’ll enjoy stunning views of the hills, and there’s a large table where you can dine in the shade. Please note: the pool loses its sunny position from mid-October to mid-March. Further down, there are two more terraces in the woods where you can relax in a hammock, play Jeu-de-boules, or swing. Hiking trails start right from the house, and mountain bikes can be delivered to the house!

    Beautiful house in a beautiful spot just outside Alportel. Our girls loved the pool! In Alportel nice restaurants, many tips from the owners.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Quiet area, however, not far drive for beautiful beaches and the old center of Faro. We enjoyed the beautiful weather, beautiful nature, could spot dolphins and went to a swimming paradise. All in all we had a wonderful vacation!

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
