About this villa rental
The villa is located in a dead-end street of urbanisation of Varandas do Lago. It has the facilities of a development but all the benefits of an independent villa. It is just a stroll to restaurants on Julias- and Ancão beach and the restaurants on Vale do Garrão and Dunas Douradas urbanisations,
Plentyful sport facilities can be found on The Campus, Quinta do Lago.
Upper floor.
Large master bedroom and en-suite bathroom with bath and shower and a balcony facing the swimming pool area. Further secluded terrace accessed from the landing.
Second bedroom with 2 beds and en-suite bathroom.
Ground floor
Third bedroom with two beds and doors leading to the terrace overlooking the pool area and a fourth bedroom with 2 beds. In between these two bedrooms there is bathroom with a shower, toilet, bidet.
Kitchen with sliding door leading to the kitchen terrace and (by steps) to the barbecue area. Spacious living with fireplace and dining room with French windows to a covered raised terrace with access to the swimming pool which has six steps and a floodlit surrounding terrace. Partially secluded gardens with shrubs and trees and a small lawn.
Area description : Villa Vivenda is situated in the heart of the so called Golden Triangle of the Algarve.
We advice you to check its location on Google Earth: click on the coordinates 37 ° 02'53 .01 'N, 08 ° 02'21 .53' west longitude. Entering "villa Vivenda Almancil" on Google maps will also give you the exact location.
Sightseeing around Almancil: The church of São Lourenço de Matos is situated on a hill. It owes its name to Laurentius (3rd century), who's life was ended on a funeral pile because he gave the money meant for the construction of the church to the poor. In the 17th century the chapel was covered with tiles (azulejos). Together with the Marbel alter and the wood carving you should visit this church.
On 18 km. from the urbanisation you will find the centre of the capital city of the Algarve: Faro, with its beautiful historical centre next to the small vessel harbour, has several shopping centres. There are lots of cafes and restaurants as well.
The shops are modern and they can be compared with the shops you are used to in UK and Ireland. Most of them are opened between 09.00 and 23.00 hour. Between the city centre and Faro airport Forum Algarve mall is opened between 09.00 and 23.00. Since 2018 there is a new huge mall with special outlet centre (Mar Shopping) just in between Loulé and Faro (next to the IKEA shop).
Fun for Kids: In a country where the weather most of the year is warm and sunny, your children can play with water. Fortunately all the villas have a private swimming pool!
Zoo marine
A water park with several dolphin, seal and sea-lion shows. One can also watch turtles, sharks, crocodiles, tropical fish and exotic and aquatic birds in the Oceans area that presents the life cycle of water and fauna from river source to ocean depth.
In the Algarve there are three water parks:
The Big One, on the N125 at SILVES
Slide & Splash, on the N125 at LAGOA
Aqua show, on N396 between LOULÉ and QUARTEIRA.
Plentyful sport facilities can be found on The Campus, Quinta do Lago.

8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
The villa was comfortable for four adults and two young children (10 months and 3 years). Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped, although a toaster would have been nice. Living and dining room were nicely furnished and comfortable.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
The villa was fabulously located for all our needs. Fabulous restaurants and golf courses nearby. It was clean, the facilities were exactly as described and the property manager could not have been more helpful.
