Villa Summary
- Brick Built BBQ
- Air Conditioning
- Hammock
If you’re wanting to escape the hustle and bustle, this charming Algarve retreat should be at the top of your bucket list. Follow the elegant driveway fenced by private gates, to your own private holiday bubble at Casa Serena. Located in Vale del Rei, just outside of Carvoeiro close to the Vale de Milho golf course. There’s a colourful buzz at the seafront, with rows of open-air cafes and restaurants serving up the best of the local cuisine. The best part? It has to be the glorious grounds, with a vast stone terrace fringed by palm trees and lush greenery. Embrace the exotic setting by heading to the inner courtyard, where you can unwind with a glass of bubbly in the crisp, fresh air. Soak up the serene rural setting on a sun lounger, unwind on the sofa under the veranda, or escape the Portuguese heat by diving into the sparkling swimming pool. With such an incredible outdoor space, dinners are best served alfresco on the dining terrace.
Sunlight pours through the large patio doors and picture-frame windows, which bring the outside in, making each room feel bright and spacious. The relaxed furnishings blend with the traditional features of the house, with elegant high ceilings, traditional wooden doors, and character tiles that give it a natural charm. The entrance hall sets the scene for the romantic grandeur, with a large sweeping staircase bordered by beautiful artwork. Decorated in soothing shades of beige and cream, the lounge and dining area are cosy additions to the living space. You’re all set up for movie nights in the home cinema, with a traditional wood-burning fireplace making it extra cosy. Larger than life, the kitchen flows elegantly out onto the terrace, where a summer kitchen and barbecue tempt you to cook outdoors in the sunshine. The ground floor features one twin bedroom, whilst upstairs is a double ensuite and main suite with a dressing area and a private terrace. There’s a final bedroom in an annex, separated from the rest of the villa for some extra privacy.
