The Villa and Location
One of the original villas in the popular community of Dunas Douradas and recently completely updated. The community is named after the golden sand dunes and wide sandy beaches, which are within easy walking distance, so you can easily forget about the car. At its heart, Dunas has an impressive Romanesque pool with pool-side snack bar and licensed restaurant - Xenia. There's a handy shop that sells fresh bread daily and several tennis courts where coaching is available if you’d like some help with your game. Down by the beach are several restaurants where you can dine with sand between your toes, Maria’s is the closest and one of the most popular with other choices in both directions along the sandy shore. Close by is Vale do Lobo, walk up the hill to the tennis academy where Ken Hom has a Chinese restaurant; many people also walk along the beach to the Praça in Vale do Lobo for more restaurants, bars and evening entertainment.
The villa is located at the end of a cul-de-sac, it’s an ideal family villa with spacious rooms, air conditioning throughout, TV with lots of UK channels and a large pool set in secluded grounds, something for everyone! If you're walking to the beach, take the footpath that runs behind the villa and save yourself 10 minutes.
