Stay at this charming family-size villa on the outskirts of the picturesque coastal town of Boliqueime, and feel a sense of calm wash right over you. Designed with comfort and entertainment at the forefront, it's perfect for groups of friends and family looking for an endlessly relaxing time where everything is all under one roof. There's so much to love about this home. First and foremost, there's just something so special about having use of your own private swimming pool, no running down for sun loungers (there's eight of them here), no children running around, nothing to distract you from reclining with a refreshing cocktail in hand. The palm-lined garden and patio terrace adds to the gorgeous setting. Enjoy a lazy lunchtime on the shady patio dining area, equipped with a plenty of seating for the group and a barbecue to grill fresh local produce and seafood on. And, as the day winds down, ascend to the roof terrace for a glass of bubbly, with views over the quiet town and shimmering sea. Inside, traditional styling, homespun furnishings and log burning fire makes the living space cosy and welcoming. The design and features of the home have been carefully considered,... with a gym, cinema and games room fitted so you can enjoy movie nights in and light-hearted games of billiards at the pool table. The bedrooms are warm and elegant, and the tradition of the place really shines through here, with tiled flooring, divine Juliet balconies, and stone-cadded ensuite bathrooms. When it's time to head out, take a two-minute stroll out the gate to find an ecological reserve with over a hundred species of birds to spot – the entire landscape is teeming with wildlife and nature. Continue walking down one of the winding tracks to Algibre River that flows past the medieval Castle of Paderne nearby. You're just 1 kilometre from Boliqueime for local bars, shop and restaurants, while shopping centres, beaches and golf courses are only a ten-minute drive from your doorstep.

Local guide
About Albufeira District
With its golden sandy beaches, fast-paced water sports and year-round sunny climate, it's no surprise Albufeira remains a tourist hotspot.
