Breakfast in the morning can be taken on your balcony. Enjoy a freshly made cappaccino from the expresso coffee machine in the kitchen. Forget about having to make a bed or tidy up - the maid will be in soon and take care of it all.
The kitchen is equipped with all the gadgets and gizmo's, including and Nespresso machine and the utensils you need to whip up a fantastic meal. There is a a formal dining table in the open plan lounge, a separate breakfast table in the kitchen and outside dining area.
The lounge room is very light and spacious with several sets of sliding doors accessing the garden, terrace and pool. There is a plasma TV and large, comfy sofas, squishy cushions and cuddly throws to snuggle under at night while relaxing with a hot chocolate.

In the villa is a well stocked folder with all the details of the attractions so you can read at leisure and book you choices. Before departure for your holiday we provide an e-book with lots of information about the Algarve and Golden Triangle so you start planning your holiday.
The local area has a huge variety of activities to interest the whole family. Options include horse riding, fishing, yachting/sailing, champagne cruises, shark & dolphin watching, 4x4 safari tours and cultural visits.
In Almancil there is a karting track if you need to burn off that adrenalin. There is also an Aqua Park (10 mins drive on the other side of Quateria) and a Swim With Dolphins experience and Theme Park (30 mins drive on the motorway).
Faro town is a 15 minute drive. There is a large shopping centre (the Forum) that offers good facilities for supermarket and retail shopping. Faro Old Town has an interesting history and several historic landmarks worth investigating. There is a lovely harbour with restaurants dotted about. In Almancil (5 min drive) is a beautiful church with wonderful mosiacs that is open to the public. Quarteria & Loule both boast excellent markets that sells both fresh produce and local made products.
Within a couple of hundred metres walk is the wonderful Gourmet Natural Restaurant and Bar (The Ermitage) excellent cocktails and meals in a luxury setting of tropical gardens. Also within walking distance (about 10 minutes) is A Floresta Indian Restaurant, Cosy Bar (which shows live sports and has regular amusing karoke nights), Casa Pinheiros & Flor Do Algarve restaurants.
In less than a kilometre from the villa towards Vale Do Lobo are another good selection of restaurants including the Sao Gabriel - a Michelin star restaurant and the Thai Garden restaurant also highly recommended. I also recommend the several 'beach shack' restaurants collectively known as 'Julias', a 3 minute drive from the villa located on the Ancao beach where celebrity spotting is a favourite pastime.
The Quinta do Lago Shopping Centre is a couple of miles down the road, here there are many exclusive designers shops and some lovely restaurants/cafes. There is also a Italian restaurant that delivers pizza and pasta (and a bottle of wine) to the villa for those nights that you just can't be bothered to cook.
