There are villas – and then there’s Casa Angelica! There are lots of 4-bed/8 guest villas to rent in the Algarve. But none so stylish as Casa Angelica! Over the past year, this old Portuguese property has been refurbished and fitted-out with seriously upmarket furnishings – all under the direction of a locally renowned professional interior designer*. Absolutely everything is brand new! Including the beds and bedding. And we all know how crucial it is to have a great night’s sleep for a thoroughly refreshing holiday! Casa Angelica is the essence of comfort - and style! A 4-bedroom villa in Sesmarias for 8 adults and 2 extra beds in the living room for 2 children, Casa Angelica is 6-minute drive from the Old Town in Albufeira. It is 1.5 km (15 min walk) to several safe secluded sandy coves where you can sunbathe, swim and snorkel all day – with an occasional ‘sortie’ to the excellent cafes and bistros on the beach. The villa has a private pool, and outside play areas with sunbeds and parasols. Nearby there is a delightful ‘art bistro’, some restaurants and a small well-stocked supermarket within walking distance. Casa Angelica has a bright and spacious living room with seating area opening out to the large pool, and a dining table for 8 people. The recently renovated kitchen offers you everything you need for self-catering including an oven, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, Nespresso coffee-maker, etc... Every bedroom has an en-suite bath- or shower-rooms – two on the ground floor and two upstairs, including the master bedroom with its own walk-in wardrobe. All the bedrooms are air-conditioned. There is also a spacious roof terrace. P.S. Looking for accommodation for more people (up to 16)? Villa Angelica's 'sister', Villa Miracampo, is located next door and offers 8 bedrooms for larger groups. • Interior design and furnishings by Andreia Ambrosia, Simple Taste.
