Surrounded by pinewood forests and a stone's throw from Lagoa de Albufeira’s unique lagoon coast, this modern villa offers rejuvenation and adventure for every member of your group or family. Surrounded by a variety of local shrubs and gardens of native wildflowers, this serene spot has everything you need for a blissful coastal retreat. The outside space is beautiful. A quenching blue pool is the main focal point, with cosy loungers ready for days soaking in the sun. The upper terrace is the perfect place for balmy afternoons spent with pre-dinner cocktails. When you need a repose from the sun, retreat to the inside where you’ll find a light-filled contemporary space. The minimal design aesthetic features crisp white walls, full-height ceilings and a multitude of glass accents that beckons the light in and creates laid-back energy that synchronises with the Portuguese coastal spirit. This home offers an abundance of privacy as well as space for entertainment altogether - the upper living room is the perfect siesta nook whilst the downstairs lounge is designed for games around the coffee table - every guest is considered here. If you want to get out and explore, beeline for Alfarim and Meco beaches with the... home’s stand-up paddle board and kayak in tow (just seven minutes in the car), or discover the natural seawater lagoons of Lagoa de Albufeira (a ten-minute drive) or spend the day in the seaside town of Sesimbra to admire the pristine white sands be spoilt with a choice of seafood restaurants (a twenty-five-minute car ride).
