About this villa rental
Lovely modern and unique four bedroom villa with veranda and private swimming pool, both with wonderful views of the beach and sea. Located on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Santo Estavao in its own grounds with beautiful established gardens, BBQ, Air conditioning, Wifi and sound system. TV has IPTV. Only ten minutes from several beaches and the wonderful ria formosa, golf and central Tavira and thirty minute drive from Faro airport. Peaceful setting within walking distance from a few local restaurants and bars.
The Algarve region
Tavira area is one of the nicest laid back places to visit. 5 km south of Sto Estevao it is very easy to lose track of time strolling down the charming cobblestone streets with it's many restaurants, shops, bars and terraces to enjoy a refreshment in the sun. . The old palace is nearby and the beach of Ilha de Tavira is within a short boat ride. The nearest beach is Barrill in Santa Lucia, opposite Pedras del Rei, centrally located in the Ria Formosa Natural Reserve park.
The garden is on 2 levels with lawns and an array of flowers, almond, carob and olive trees. Pick your own fruit from the orchard including oranges, lemons, peaches, pomegranates and more depending on the time of year of your stay.
You are spoiled for choice in Tavira and Santa Luzia with ample restaurants and bars, whilst maintaining a quaint non commercial feel. Porch preto is a typical dish from the Alentejo region where the black pig is fed acorns to give a distinctive flavour. There is a wide choice of Portuguese wines to choose from too.
On the beach at Barrill you'll find a self service restaurant, hamburger house, pizzeria/creperia, bar, boutique and handicraft shop. If you don't like overcrowded beaches then these are the right beaches for you, especially Barrill with its 14km stretch of fine white sand and sand dunes. Walk 500 metres and you will find your own stretch of beach.
Other places to visit include the town of Faro if you want to browse the shops or local restaurants and bars or sit and watch the yachts on the marina.
Manta Rota beach, Praia Verde and Cabanas are just a short car ride away as is Castro Marim with its two castles. Tavira is only 40 minute drive from the Spanish border.
Sto Estavao is a small village with a quaint little church, a bar, a restaurant, pharmacy and supermarkets. It's very laid back and has several local festivals throughout the year. Surrounded by orange groves it is quiet and peaceful spoilt only by the sound of the crickets and many birds that frequent the countryside. We also have our own resident rabbits. Please note our changeover day is a Saturday from May to September inclusive and we only accept bookings of 7, 14 or 21 days in that time. Many thanks for taking the time to check out our lovely home away from home villa in the Algarve.

A great villa for a quiet stay located near Tavira with excellent views towards the sea. The property is well equipped and the pool area was perfect for relaxing. A short drive from several places worth visiting including Tavira, Santa Luzia, the Spanish town of Ayamonte and lots of beaches.

Wonderful stay at the property which is set in a quiet and rural setting. Excellent amenities both inside the property and around the swimming pool and gardens. Easy access to several beaches and Tavira. Good support from Happy Homes the local agents who were there when neededDC

Lovely spacious villa in excellent condition and very clean. It is in a very rural and secluded position and apart from the odd dog barking there was no noise so very peaceful. We enjoyed the sea view. A car is essential. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The garden is extensive and well maintained. The pool was very warm in August and although there are no parasols for the sunbeds there is plenty of shade next to the villa. There are a few pool tiles missing but this does not affect use of the pool. Finally we could not speak too highly of Happy Homes and particularly Joal who looks after the property. He was very flexible with check-in, replaced a pool net that was broken when we arrived, arranged for an air-con unit to be fixed and when we realised a mid-stay change of bed linen and towels was not included for our two week rental he arranged for a clean set to be delivered so we could change them ourselves. Top man.

The property, house and garden are very good. However, the only bathroom in the ground floor, serving 2 bedrooms had a clogged loo, resulting from "clogged up" sewage system. The situation was only solved 5 days after us checking in. Needless to say, that this has upset our holidays.
