On the cliffs above Praia da Oura beach, you can follow steps straight from this villa to the golden sand. What’s more, it’s just a short walk from Santa Eulalia, which has a range of restaurants and bars. It can be just as much fun to stay home, slipping in and out of the swimming pool or Jacuzzi on the terrace, lazing away on loungers and day beds overlooking the ocean and soaking up the rays on the roof terrace. For the ultimate relaxation, a sauna or hammam is available for an additional fee. If you’ve got guests that want their own space, perhaps book the additional annexe to add two extra bedrooms.

Home truths
A separate annexe with an additional double and twin room is available on request, but it does not increase the capacity of 11 guests. It just means you have more space to spread out.
Your host can provide a cot and high chair for infants on request.
The gates are shared with the neighbouring villa.
Cleaning five days a week is included with a stay here.
There are steps from the garden to the beach, but it's worth noting this is a public beach with a snack bar.
A short walk from the shops, bars and restaurants of Santa Eulalia, having a car is not necessary. There is private parking if you are hiring a car.
