About this villa rental
Vila Margarida is a luxury private villa rental in Praia da Luz on the lovely Algarve coast of Portugal. It is one of the best villas in the lovely small town resort, boasting great views, lovely private heated swimming pool and its own private hard surface tennis court set in a beautiful established garden of an acre which gives a high degree of privacy. Add all this to the fact that Vila Margarida is very centrally located and only 8 minutes walk to the beach and less to many bars, restaurants and shops and you will see that this villa offers the best of both worlds, a central location and amazing privacy and facilities.
The villa has 5 bedrooms, 2 double and 3 twin. 4 bedrooms are on the ground floor, 3 of these open onto the pool terrace. There are 4 bath/shower rooms. The lounge, dining room,1 twin bedroom and kitchen are on the first floor and the large first floor terrace has wonderful views to the sea and cliffs overlooking Luz Bay.

Vila Margarida is extremely popular and we usually have bookings running back to back with Saturday change-over throughout the season (March-November)
On the vast majority of occasions we will need your whole party to leave Vila Margarida by 09.00 on the last day so that the maids have time to clean the villa ready for the next guests.

Golf: The Algarve is well known as a golfers paradise and Vila Margarida makes a great base for a golfing holiday, whether all members of the group are playing or some go off to play whilst the others relax by the pool or play tennis.
There are many excellent courses within a 25 minute drive including Palmares, Penina, Parque da Floresta and the closest , Boavista is only 5 minutes drive from the villa.
Lagos: The beautiful town of Lagos, described by many as the loveliest town on the Algarve with its old Roman walls and narrow windy streets, is a short 10 minute drive away. It has many excellent beaches, a lovely marina and fishing port and great shopping and bars, restaurants and nightclubs. Many boat trips run from here including dolphin watching and grotto visits. There are also deep sea fishing excursions available. There are lots of lovely pavement cafes and also entertainers and craftsmen selling their wares. At night it has a wonderful atmosphere and the streets are packed with locals and tourists out for a stroll and watching the entertainers.
Other Nearby Attractions: As well as all that Praia da Luz has to offer there are many other nearby activities for those who hire a car or who travel around by taxi or public transport.
There are 2 water slide parks within a 25 minute drive, a marine wildlife park, a large modern shopping centre and a small zoo.
The West coast beaches are huge and really beautiful, with large breakers in most weathers. They are ideal for surfing and several have surf schools and board hire. The closest are about 20 minutes drive. Also to the West is the nautical town of Sagres with some lovely sea-food restaurants and the most South-Westerly point in Europe, Cape St Vincent with its high cliffs, fort and lighthouse..
The ancient Algarve capital of Silves is a 30 minute drive to the East and has a lovely old castle.

We absolutely loved this property! It was perfect for our large family and had everything we needed for a relaxing, fun-filled stay. The location couldn’t have been better — just a quick 10-minute walk to the supermarket, great restaurants, and the beach. No need for a car, which made things so easy! The house was super spacious, and the outdoor dining area quickly became our favorite spot. We could cook, chat, and enjoy meals together in such a laid-back, social setting. It really made our trip extra special!

Great villa with everything we needed for a celebratory, three generation break. The pool was big enough (8 x 5m) and very child friendly - the kids practically lived in it! There was space for us all to be together (9) and the property and garden are large enough for everyone to find a quiet spot. Luz is a very family friendly place with plenty of dining out options and Baptista supermarket is very well stocked if you want to eat at home. Fiona is an excellent host and always responded very quickly to our questions. Thank you Fiona for allowing us to share your holiday home.

This home was spacious and beautiful! The pool and outdoor kitchen areas were so enjoyable, and we loved all of the charm that the property had to offer. Tennis court, fruit trees, beautiful gardens and terraces…. All so dreamy!

Message from owner was about stains on towels and bring your own pool towels. The towels for interior were stained. I had to sweep the upper level patio as it was not cleaned and I had to wash the upper outdoor table. I had to wash it twice before we could use it. After reading rules about towels and children not touching glass I thought this place would be immaculate. We were afraid of rules. When we arrived some of the outdoor furniture by the pool was so soiled and torn you did not sit on them. It is a shame as the pool was amazing the place inside was clean and the other patio lounge chairs were great. So some part were amazing and then you had soiled towels and chairs. We still had a good time but what we paid for to have rules and soiled furniture did not match. Would not recommend. If you rent a place the cost of business is providing unsoiled towels and not to tell people arriving not to soil your towels.
