About this villa rental
Occupying a plot of almost 5000 square meters, this single storey villa offers a peaceful location just a few minutes walk to one of the most beautiful beaches in the Algarve, Praia da Marinha.
From here you can pick up the Seven Hanging Valleys (walking) Trail and view the spectacular coastline of the area.
Within a five minute drive are the stunning Benagil caves which you can see by boat, paddleboard or kayak. Carvoeiro is a ten-minute drive (taxis on average €10 to12) and has many restaurants, shops and plenty of beaches to explore. Zoomarine and Slide & Splash are within easy driving distance.
The villa is set well back from the road and offers a private driveway with space for several cars to the front of the house. The villa is surrounded by mature landscaped gardens with palm trees and a large grass area for children to play. There is also a pool table in a shaded spot.
The villa boasts a fully equipped kitchen with breakfast table. The spacious lounge and dining area are well furnished and offers a built in bar, wood burning stove and smart TV. Sliding patio doors lead to the terrace and pool area which has external dining furniture and private kidney shaped swimming pool (8x5m) which can be heated (additional cost) during the cooler months. There are plenty of sun loungers and from this area you can enjoy the view of the gardens.
There are four bedrooms, the master bedroom has a king size bed and en suite shower room. There are sliding patio doors to the terrace and views over the lawn and gardens. A further king size bedroom has an en suite bathroom with walk in shower. There are two further bedrooms, one with twin beds and the other with two single beds which can be zipped together to form a super king bed. This bedroom also has sliding patio doors to a terrace with views over the gardens. These bedrooms share the use of a family shower room. All three bedrooms have ample wardrobe and storage space and benefit from air conditioning.
The villa has several different areas to sit outside so you will always find a place in either the sun or shade or away from the rest of the party just to enjoy a book. The roof terrace offers spectacular views, a great place to enjoy a glass of wine whilst the sun goes down.
There are two restaurants you can easily reach by foot and many more just a short taxi or drive away. Overall, this is a great family villa for those who enjoy a peaceful location.

Lovely villa in a super location, only a couple of minutes walk from the nearest beach and a spectacular cliff walk. The grounds are spacious, with beautiful specimen trees. Very peaceful. Kitchen well equipped, strong wifi, air con for comfortable sleeping. Relaxing around the pool and sipping wine / coffee looking out to sea from the roof terrace were highlights!

We absolutely loved our stay- we were two families with children and the villa exceeded our expectations. Everything was beautifully clean and the kitchen was really well equipped. Incredibly peaceful surroundings - but just a 5 minute walk to one of the most popular beaches on the Algarve. Would 100% return.

Very spacious indoors and outside with several areas to eat or drink in the sun. The garden has colourful plants and attracts a lot of different birds. The pool was heated in Feb/early March which was nice. The kitchen is well equipped and we were provided with a French press (cafetière) when we requested one. Communications with Elite Rentals were very good.
One small point for winter guests is that even on sunny days the property cools down quickly. With no door into the lounge area, heat is lost into the hall and corridor. It is a lovely open space but it would have been good to have had a drape to pull across to keep it more cosy.
