Pretty in Peach Faro, Algarve

Property Description

For an opulent stay on the cloudless coast of the Algarve, look no further than this stylish three-bedroom home, located a short drive from the vast expanse of Praia do Garrão and Quinta do Lago – one of the area's most prestigious golf resorts.

Minimalist chic and earth tones are everywhere, so it's refreshing to come across a stylish escape that embraces a bit of maximalist design. Think ornate chandeliers, elegant patterned curtains and eye-catching artwork adorning the walls throughout the home.

Ascend the grand central staircase, and you'll find two en-suite bedrooms on the first floor, with a further king-size double on the ground floor. Each offers easy access to the outdoors, with private balconies for the first-floor rooms and doors that slide open to the poolside patio on the entrance level.

Out here, sun loungers surround the inviting pool, perfect for topping up your vitamin d in between refreshing dips in the water. When you feel those hunger pangs, shelter in the shade of the gazebo (equipped with its own chandelier) and tuck into plates of fresh fish and seafood grilled on the brick barbecue.

Fancy a break from the beach? Why not head into the Algarve's capital city of Faro? While most visitors simply pass straight through, we'd argue that it's well worth an afternoon spent exploring the winding cobbled streets of its charming old town, gazing up at its magnificent 13th-century cathedral and learning a little in its fascinating museums. Afterwards, hang around for the evening and take your pick from under-the-radar local eateries to innovative international dishes served in rooftop restaurants.
