Casa Mú - A luxury, eco-friendly villa that sleeps 10

This luxury villa near Carvoeiro, with ocean views, is a modern oasis of peace and quiet. Surrounded by nature and just minutes from the charming villages and the Algarve’s most beautiful beaches—Praia da Marinha and Praia de Benagil—the house offers guests the chance to enjoy local life in a private oasis, away from the hustle and bustle.

Through the use of natural materials such as wood, natural stone, and concrete floors (heated in the winter), the villa exudes understated luxury. The furniture and cabinets are handmade from recycled wood, creating an eco-chic design. The white marble kitchen countertop comes from the Alentejo. Plates and bowls were locally sourced and crafted by Portuguese artisans.

The long, white villa was built with stylish simplicity. Featuring a recyclable light-gauge steel frame and highly insulated walls, the house places a strong emphasis on sustainability. Solar panels heat the water and the building. All wastewater is biologically treated and reused in the garden.

It is a perfect retreat to share with family and friends. The villa has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, one of which has a bathtub; all feature walk-in showers. Large kitchen windows open onto the pool and the dining table on the terrace. Indoor and outdoor living blend seamlessly. The fully equipped kitchen, featuring a large kitchen island and inviting bar stools, overlooks the rural surroundings and offers a stunning view of the ocean. Lounge beds and beanbag chairs around the pool are ideal for relaxing or simply hanging out and enjoying a vacation in the sun.

Located right in the heart of the Algarve, the house is well-situated to experience everything the region has to offer. From the beautiful coastline and amazing beaches around Carvoeiro and charming Ferragudo to the hills of Monchique, not to mention plenty of attractions for children and excellent restaurants serving fine wines and delicious food. All the perfect ingredients for an unforgettable vacation.
