Close to restaurants and the Praia Fonte da Telha beach, this villa is located in a residential complex with two golf courses and a variety of facilities. The garden is large with a shaded alfresco dining area, and the saltwater pool has plenty of space for swimming or tanning on the sun beds. One of the bathrooms is accessed from outside, but each downstairs bedroom enjoys direct access to the pool and garden. The pull-out bed in one of the bedrooms offers flexibility with sleeping arrangements, which could be ideal for families.

Home truths

    Not all bathrooms are photographed, but we expect consistency in style and quality throughout this home.

    There is space outside this home to park for up to two cars. Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to make the most of your stay.

    The twin bedroom has a pull-out bed rather than two regular singles.

    There is a bathroom outside that's accessed via an external entrance.

    Home comforts are lacking here. We think it's best suited to those looking for a base to use when travelling for work.

    The pool is unfenced, so children should always be supervised when playing outside.
