Close to the charming village of Guia and an array of stunning beaches, this gorgeous villa boasts a large private pool, a summer kitchen, and lovely gardens. The style throughout the house is bold and might not be to everyone's taste, but the separate annexe offers some extra privacy for up to four guests, giving everyone enough room to stretch their legs. We love the on-site equestrian facilities, available to use for an additional fee, and your host can arrange a plethora of other local tours and activities to make your stay truly special.
