Chale Vermelho Portugal
Holiday Home Rental Description
Built during the turn of the 20th century and now beautifully restored, Chale Vermelho is a red beacon located at the heart of Armação de Pêra. With a roof terrace built so you can hear the townsfolk sing songs dedicated to local fishermen, elegant bedrooms, and opulent living areas, every corner of this property feels impressive.
The property has become a famous landmark along the coast, now listed as a historical building. The architecture has Moorish influences and elegant homages to the region’s rich cultural history. As you step inside, the interiors were inspired by the Belle Époque era emerging in the South of France. Unique wooden floors, antique chandeliers and a spectacular staircase will draw your attention, with stylish furnishings and carefully thought-out décor to complement the foundations that have been carefully restored and maintained for years.
A family summer home for almost 80 years, the luxury and style of the property could never get in the way of the homely, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you are travelling with family or friends, the living spaces encourage intimacy and make your time together feel as special as you could imagine.
In the main house, the large open kitchen opens into a living and dining area, as well as a large terracotta terrace that makes the most of the spectacular seafront setting. The ceilings are adorned with sculpted grape vines in tribute to vines that used to thrive in front of the villa itself. The restored staircase leads the way to two ensuite bedrooms and a living room, with more stunning sea views providing an elegant backdrop to every room. A secret door leads to a further rooftop terrace that, many years ago, the owner built to hear the townsfolk sing songs dedicated to local fishermen at the church of “A Nossa Senhora dos Navegantes.”
In front of the property, there is an intimate guest house, which reimagines some charm and character from the main house with a contemporary twist. Inside, there is a duplex suite with a living room and terrace downstairs and an ensuite bedroom upstairs, as well as a further self-contained studio with a bedroom, shower room and balcony. Perfect for older children or grandparents looking for their own space.
Outside, the terrace has been built into the seawall, with it feeling as though the waves are knocking at the back door. With direct access to the beach and the historical town centre, Chale Vermelho offers both a retreat and a chance to immerse yourself in the hustle and bustle of the town. Chale Vermelho is a red beacon located at the heart of Armação de Pêra. Perched on the seafront, with the terrace built into the seawall, this charming villa offers a fantastic balance between a sense of privacy and a connection to the bustling town. Within walking distance of both the beach and the town centre, there is so much to do within the local area, making this the perfect Algarve retreat! From the picturesque church square to the delicious flavours of the beachfront restaurant below, the villa offers one of the most idyllic locations in Portugal.
If you are looking for a beach holiday, then in this area, you will be spoiled for choice. Praia de Armação de Pêra is within a 5-minute walk, ideal for a morning swim or moonlit dip! All within a five-minute drive of the villa are Praia Nova, Praia da Cova Redonda, Praia dos Tremocos and two Blue Flag beaches in Praia de Nossa Senhora da Rocha. While the town and the beaches are within walking distance of Chale Vermelho, we do recommend using a car to get out and about, as the area is relatively steep and may not be suitable for some guests. Albufeira Old Town Square is around a twenty-minute drive or forty-minute bus ride from V Chale Vermelho and is known for its buzzing atmosphere and variety of bars, restaurants, shops and galleries. The ancient fishing village is set across quaint cobblestone streets that visitors can get lost in while selecting from the fantastic variety of drinking spots, eateries and live entertainment.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
