Sleek, modern design fuses with traditional features to perfection at this immaculately converted Quinta dating back to 1895. Nestled right in the historic centre of Lagoa, you're just a moment's walk from authentic restaurants and bars dotted about the winding, cobbled streets. Or jump in the car and hit the coast – the most breathtaking beaches and coves you'll ever see are less than a ten-minute drive away. After hot summer days exploring the coast, back at home, a little paradise in the city awaits. You can tell an architect has worked their magic here with outdoor and indoor spaces working together seamlessly. Inside, the serene bedrooms (all with their own bathrooms) are expertly spaced apart, with two garden wing suites leading right out onto the terraces. And it's outside on the stylish deck surrounded by established tropical gardens where you'll want to be. Stretch out on the reclining daybeds to soak up the rays, then slink into the stunning raised pool to cool off. When thoughts turn to food, flex your culinary skills in the state-of-the-art kitchen. Or keep things alfresco and fire up the teppanyaki griddle before settling down around the dining table in the garden room. Then all... that's left to do is kick back and relax in the covered outdoor lounge with a glass of vinho do Porto. The atmospheric outdoor lighting and Sonos sound system will help to keep the night flowing nicely.

Lagoa is the coast with the most. Despite being one of the smaller regions, it boasts the lion's share of the Algarve's most magnificent beaches. Take your pick from Albandeira, Benagil and Carvoeiro – the waters are crystal clear, and the red sandstone sea cliffs are dramatic wherever you choose to lay down your towel. Praia da Marinha deserves a special mention for its magnificent rock arch formations that grace...
