Located in the sweet unspoilt village of Cabanas de Tavira, this home is ideally placed. Contemporary in design, it’s been tastefully decorated with comfort and socialisation in mind. If you don’t feel like heading out to eat, indulge in a delicious dinner with your loved ones in the open-plan living and dining room – beautifully complemented by the sprawling balcony, you have the ideal spot for a nightcap as the sun sets. We love the vibrant colours of this apartment that make it such a happy home, and with both bedrooms boasting en-suite bathrooms, you can enjoy a bit of privacy and quiet time, too. There’s a lot to explore in the local area, and a short ten-minute stroll will find you at the beach. After a fun-filled day on the coast, return home for a movie night to unwind. The floor-to-ceiling windows will cast wonderful ambient lighting as the sun disappears. Brilliantly located, this home has it all – alfresco dining, comfort at its core, and a picturesque location for when you want to explore the magic that Portugal has to offer.
