Arch of Light

Holiday Rental Description

A few minutes from the neon-lit Rua da Oura – a lively strip of nighttime eateries and dance clubs, this contrasting villa is the picture of idyllic rest. Only a twenty-minute stroll from the sands of Santa Eulália, you'll be staying on the edge of Albufeira, where a white-washed old town serves as the perfect escape from modernity. Whether you're scuba diving or dolphin watching, this coastal city ensures you'll never be bored.

We love how this indoor living space centres around a skylit dome – the ideal spot for curling up on the couch and discussing your daily plans. Imagine yourself sipping meia-de-leite by the pool and observing sunsets from a cosy hammock. When it comes to spending quality time with your loved ones, just retreat to the four-poster garden bed for a chat. Maybe you'll keep things simple with a Portuguese barbecue, but did you know you can hire a professional chef to cook dinner for your whole family?
