Sitting pretty moments from Praia Grande, this beachfront villa is a sun worshipper's dream. And not only is it close to the Atlantic, but there's also a private pool with panoramic views. With ample seating, including an alfresco dining table, your outlook will be nature-focused here. Though the interior is traditional rather than sleek, we love how homely it feels. We think it works especially well for families who'd like to split into smaller groups – the two self-contained apartments and a separate bungalow can make that happen. With a tick on location, daily cleaning included, and the possibility for events, you can see why this one caught our eye.
