About this villa rental
Casa Algarvia Senhorial by Stay ici:
A unique holiday experience with refinement, tradition, and comfort.
Located in the historic center of Albufeira, this house, built at the turn of the 19th century, was once the private residence of one of the most prestigious Algarve families. It is also the birthplace and home of Diogo Leote, Minister of Justice of the 1st Constitutional Government of the 1st Portuguese Republic in 1911, following the fall of the monarchy in Portugal.
Recently restored by architect José Alegria, who preserved the traditional rammed earth construction and added details reflecting the Moorish presence in Portugal—an area in which he is an expert and for which he was appointed Consul by the King of Morocco. Very welcoming, elegant, and tasteful, this house offers a journey back in time. Feel the essence of a modern “One Thousand and One Nights” from the ancient Al-Andalus, where every detail has been carefully designed to welcome families who appreciate history, elegance, and authenticity.
With spacious rooms, vaulted ceilings, inviting outdoor areas, and a unique atmosphere, this house is the perfect retreat for those who wish to experience the true spirit of the Algarve—its light, the scents of the sea, and all modern comforts in a setting full of character.

10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2021
Pros: Very spacious with large dining room and multiple living areas. Nice courtyard, with friendly neighborhood cats. Good location -- could walk to restaurants and shops and could see the ocean. Clean, and furnishings with authentic character. Has washing machine (and a drying rack). Would be lovely for a stay in spring, summer or fall.
Cons: It had been relatively cold and rainy for a few days when we arrived in late December, and the house, although lovely and clean, was musty smelling and cold. There is no central heating, but we appreciated the one space heater, which we put in our daughter's bedroom. We made the best of it and enjoyed our time there -- we bought wood for the fireplace from the grocery store, moved the kitchen table into the room with the fireplace (we could shut the doors to that room, luckily), and kept warm during the day while playing games and reading. But if you like warm, cozy, dry spaces, you should probably think twice before booking this in winter.

Wonderful, very grand and soulful old style family home.
Pictures do not do it justice.
Love hearing the church bells chime out the bedroom window.
Sofia is a delightful, prompt and very accommodating host and property manager. We felt very welcome and enjoyed our stay.
