A Cliffside Quinta

Holiday Rental Description

Promising panoramic ocean views, this palatial villa stands proudly on the golden cliffs above Praia da Marinha. Drive through the gated entrance and delight in the grandeur of this historic estate, where a private path escorts you down to the magical beach.

Notice how the white-washed exterior contrasts completely with the dark-wooded design downstairs. Each room is simply bursting with character, allowing you to wake up in a sumptuous bedroom before enjoying an alfresco breakfast on the patio.

Surrounded by idyllic garden paths and pretty flower beds, there are Roman steps leading you into a large pool – perfect for summertime swimming. After a snooze in the hammock, why not grill piri-piri chicken on the barbecue?

When it's time to explore, head inland and see the sculptures at Sand City, or rent a boat and admire the Algarve from the water. Showcasing religious art and wood carvings, you'll love gathering your family in this formal dining room – you can even arrange to have a Portuguese feast cooked for you.
