Villa Iros Portugal

This luxurious and generously-sized holiday home is nestled in the sought-after area of Vale do Lobo. Tucked away behind automatic gates, this lovely four-bedroom villa sleeps up to nine guests and is the perfect choice for friends, family or multiple couples looking to spend some quality time together. This charming villa retains many traditional Portuguese features and has an inviting and homely feel.
The wonderful, open-plan style of the villa creates a fabulously bright and welcoming interior. The large kitchen is fully equipped, modern and decorated in neutral tones. There is air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout the entire villa. In the wonderful living room, you can enjoy a cosy atmosphere as you sit back and relax on the huge sofa in front of the traditional fireplace and TV. There are also two dining tables for guests to settle down for a feast.
There are four wonderful bedrooms in total. The first two are found on the ground floor, and both have double beds and en suite bathrooms. One of the bedrooms also has a sofa bed. Upstairs, there are two further bedrooms with twin beds that share a bathroom; these bedrooms would be ideal for kids! Each of the bedrooms is unique, colourful and finished to a high standard, providing a private haven for guests to rest and recharge after a long day in the sun. The bathrooms are also spacious and well equipped.
Around the beautifully well-kept garden, guests will find all kinds of exotic plants, palms and trees. The large private pool sits centrally in the garden, surrounded by loungers where you can soak up the sunshine, and mature trees creating a cooling shade. A lovely lawn encircles the villa, providing plenty of room for exploring and having fun with the family! There are several areas for rest and recreation, including comfortable sun loungers, an outdoor L-shaped sofa and a lovely dining area for eight persons, shaded by an automatic awning. There is also a traditional barbecue just beside this for super easy meals in the sunshine! At the back garden, there is a garage that has been converted to a games room with a pool table and a table tennis table. The villa is located minutes away from Almancil town centre, as well as the neighbouring resorts of Vale do Lobo and Quinta do Lago, meaning guests won’t have to go far to enjoy what the Algarve has to offer. With its impressive facilities, stunning views and tranquil surroundings, Villa Iros has everything guests need to relax in absolute luxury.While you’re just a short walk from 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. We recommend hiring bikes nearby and taking a scenic trip around the neighbourhood, including the world-famous golf courses just short ride away! The closest beach is 7km away in Quinta do Lago.
Once an expanse of pine forests and empty beaches, Vale do Lobo has been transformed into the height of luxury over the last 50 years. The first of the three corners of what is now Algarve’s Golden Triangle, Vale do Lobo was among the first tourist resorts ever to be built in Portugal, and indeed is the site of the first five-star hotel in the Algarve!
Of course, with two 18-hole championship golf courses, the Royal and the Ocean, Vale do Lobo is the dream destination for any aspiring golfer. So fantastic are the facilities, the resort hosted the Portuguese Open in 2002 and 2003! Indeed, across the country of Portugal, there are 14 of the world’s top 100 best golf courses, making it the perfect destination for those who enjoy a day out on the course.
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 it 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’.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
