Villa Rosalicia Portugal
Holiday Home Rental Description
Tucked in a totally quiet and peaceful location, Villa Rosalicia is a totally modern property with panoramic views across the Algarve coast!
The interiors have the clear hallmarks of a recent renovation, with marble floors, intricate details and unique architecture throughout. You are welcomed by a delightful entrance hall, from which you can access the rest of the home. The main living room enjoys a wall of glass doors along one side, allowing the warm glow of Algarve sunshine to stream through the interiors. There are two large sofas in front of the Satellite TV, with both national and international channels, and there is a second living area with a whole circle of cushioned seats around a traditional fireplace – the perfect cosy environment for sharing special moments. There is a large, fully-equipped kitchen for plenty of chefs to get involved with meal prep, with a large central island and a breakfast bar, and the dining room has a table for eight people and is equipped with air conditioning. Wi-Fi is available throughout the villa.
Each of the four bedrooms demonstrates this same loving attention to detail, with ornate lighting and décor, beautiful sets of furniture and of course, fabulously bright and welcoming spaces. There are three double rooms and one twin room, with two on each floor. The master-bedroom occupies most of the first-floor, with a king-size bed and an ensuite bathroom with a vast bathtub for soothing away your stress. Each of the four bathrooms is beautifully styled, some with a huge walk-in shower.
On the veranda you are met by an enormous sociable seating area for all the group, with a large sofa around a central coffee table, perfect for the whole group to gather together. The large heated pool, at 10 by 5 meters, is also a perfect central hang-out spot, with a row of loungers to one side for a little sunbathing, and a beautiful alfresco dining area to the other side, on the perfectly manicured lawn. With only the forested hill-side around you, you’ll find complete privacy in this enclosed villa, making it the perfect spot for calm relaxation. In addition, there are plenty of parking places inside the property, so you won’t have any worries about the cars.
You’re also just 20 minutes from the vibrant town of Faro and 25 minutes from the beach! And while you’re very near to the action of the Vale do Lobo resort, the location remains calm and quiet, making it ideal for a little outdoor activity, be that a peaceful stroll or even a bike ride. Nestled in the fabulous rural landscape of the Algarve, between so many interesting towns and natural spaces, Villa Rosalicia is in the ideal spot to explore the fascinating history and sublime landscape of the region.
Nearby is the first-class golf-resort of Vale de Lobo, one of the first tourist resorts ever to be built in Portugal, and the site of the first five-star hotel in the Algarve! With two 18-hole championship golf courses, Vale de Lobo is the dream destination for any aspiring golfer.
Outside of golf, the Algarve is an excellent destination for other hobbyists. With a vast coastline that meets the powerful Atlantic Ocean, Portugal is a true paradise for the keen surfer, or indeed even those looking to try if for the first time, with plenty of surfing schools all along the calmer sections of the coast. And even for those less enamoured with surfing, the beaches of Portugal are well worth a visit for their beautifully clear waters.
The Algarve, the southernmost region of Portugal, is famous for its picturesque scenes of vast blue skies casting a warming glow on the expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, with untouched bays framed by jagged Limestone rocks at every turn. While the southern coast caters to every need of its visitors, to the West and the rugged interior the land remains largely untouched, with less development and endless intersecting of historic villages, hilltop castles and beautiful churches.
Portugal itself is a small, fascinating country at the most Western point of mainland Europe. The capital, Lisbon, is known for its lively nightlife, with endless bars and clubs full of fun-loving locals and tourists alike, but also has plenty of fascinating history (check out Belém, jam-packed with monuments!) and undulating terrain, famously termed the ‘city of the seven hills’.
