We know that you might be feeling uncertain about booking your next holiday with the ever-changing travel restrictions, which is why we've introduced our Travel Restrictions Guarantee for your peace of mind.

Book your next villa holiday with confidence, safe in the knowledge that you can either move your dates or receive a holiday voucher for the full amount paid if your travel dates are restricted by either FCDO/local government advice advice or local restrictions in your destination country.*

The Travel Restrictions Guarantee is automatically included in the website price and can be removed before you book, however we strongly advise you keep it to give you added flexibility and protection.

You will still need to purchase a comprehensive travel insurance policy as soon as your booking is confirmed. This insurance should, as a minimum, protect you against cancellation, curtailment, medical expenses, loss/theft of possessions and documents, personal liability and airline failure.

If there are restrictions in your destination country preventing you from being able to travel to that destination, you will be able to cancel your villa and receive a voucher for the full amount paid for your villa to rebook when you are ready to do so.
'Travel Restrictions Guarantee' is automatically included in the search results price on the solmarvillas.com website.
The premium paid for 'Travel Restrictions Guarantee' is non-commissionable.
The premium can be removed from the basket if not required. If removed during booking, you still have 7 days from confirmation to add this back on if needed.
For bookings made less than 6 weeks before arrival, this premium can't be added or removed after booking.
The 'Travel Restrictions Guarantee' is non-refundable, non-transferable and non-commissionable.

Imagine breath taking views over the Atlantic, no neighbours and sun deck and private pool to die for; this is Villa Coelha. Immaculately designed to take full advantage of the ocean views, this four-bedroom hideaway is an excellent choice for those seeking exclusivity and privacy. The curved private pool is fringed by yellow sun loungers and overlooks the bay.

There are plenty of dining choices within the villa. An indoor dining table overlooks the pool and there are two outdoor dining set ups, complete with traditional built in BBQ with a small ornamental pond located to the side. Cook up a storm in the gorgeous kitchen, tiled in traditional Portuguese style.

There are four spacious bedrooms, including a twin bedroom on the lower level. When you’re not lounging by the pool, drink in the stunning view from the upper deck, where clear skies meet an azure ocean.

The quiet beaches of Coelha and Castelo are a walk away and quaint bars and restaurants are within easy reach. The Algarve is famed for its dramatic limestone cliffs and golden shores. Coelha (or Rabbit) beach boasts cliff top walks on stunning rock formations with coves to discover below. It’s an explorer’s paradise. If you feel like driving, Albufeira’s popular marina is only short drive away too.

Stunning villa in a beautiful location. We will definitely be going back. The views from the pool and terrace are amazing. What a way to start each day, eating breakfast on the terrace and watching the sun set in the evenings with a chilled wine. The beautiful beach is a 5 min stroll away where there's a beach bar that do lovely fish dishes - fresh grilled sardines are lovely! The nearest restaurant is a 5-10 min walk away but some evenings we got a cab into Gale, Villamoura or Albufeira for a livelier atmosphere. The Baia Grande Hotel nearby also does pretty decent lunch at their pool bar. The villa was immaculate and very well kept, the cleaner popped back to change towels and clean/tidy the villa, even the pool man came by most mornings to clean and top up the pool. Great facilities - even a washing machine so we could wash some clothes! We had a bbq one night on the outside bbq, which was lovely. Overall an amazing holiday had by all!
