A stone's throw from Quinta Do Lago, one of the most popular and prestigious golf resorts in the Algarve, you'll feel like Hollywood royalty in this luxurious home. All sleek angles and sugar-cube-white, the exterior looks like the very best of 1960s bold architecture. The raised terrace is crowned with a glorious free-from swimming pool, inviting you for a dip in the hotter months. Fire up the gas grill and serve an alfresco feast on the shaded patio by the poolside. A couple of balconies upstairs provide a little alone time if you need it. Inside you’ll find a sauna, state of the art kitchen and a home cinema that would make De Niro jealous – it really has to be seen to be believed. There’s a huge wine cellar too so you can store as many bottles of Tempranillo as you like. The ultra contemporary finish flirts with some retro touches, such as the deep seated sofa and the sunny yellow rectangular kitchen island, which imbues the space with character and warmth. Shopping, restaurants and bars are a short drive or walk away, as is the beach and access to the surrounding Ria Formosa Nature Park.

About Algarve
With more than 300 days of sunshine per year and over 100 beaches dotted along its coastline, the Algarve is one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations. The party scene is alive and kicking around the capital, Faro, Albufeira, and Praia da Rocha should you want it, but there’s so much more to this sun-baked corner of Portugal than the high-rise resorts of the coast’s centre. This is a region...

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
