Located right at the heart of Albufeira, this villa is pretty impressive. The popular beaches of Castelo and Evaristo are within walking distance – as are plenty of shops and eateries – but this home has more going for it than just location. There’s heaps of room for a group, including a second lounge upstairs that would be ideal for kids to claim as their own – they’ll also have table tennis and a pool table to keep them entertained. Outside, the choice of covered terraces, quiet balconies, and poolside daybeds will appeal to those wanting a laid-back stay. Home truths: *There’s free off-road parking here *Your host can provide a complimentary cot and high chair – this must be requested at the time of booking, and you’ll need to bring your own cot linen *For those with reduced mobility, there are ground-floor bedrooms and bathrooms here
