This beach house-style home is a zenful haven, just a stone's throw away from the Portuguese coastline. Overlooking a dazzling pool and lounge area are deep wrap-around sofas, where you can pop your feet up with a good book in one hand and a cocktail in the other. And while the outdoor space is absolutely idyllic, the interiors are just as charming. Neutral colours combined with natural textures of stone, wood and wicker create a sense of seaside serenity. Each bedroom has its own theme, from soft pink velvet to a pop of lime green, bringing a little summer zest. You’re guaranteed a restful night's sleep after a soak in one of the walk-in showers. And we love the exposed beams, which are a stunning rustic touch. On waking in the morning, sneak into one of the quaint chill-out zones to savour a peaceful cuppa before sunrise. Plan your day while enjoying some conversation over breakfast around your large dining table, whilst others enjoy a slower morning snuggling on the sofa. If you choose to explore the local area on your way to the beach, which is just a seven-minute stroll away, be sure to stop at one of the many restaurants for a bite to eat, or the local beach bar for sundowners to round off another perfect day in paradise.
