The Stone Blue

Set back 800 metres from Carvalhal Beach, this villa centres around outdoor living with a private pool and shaded seating spots. Inside, we love how the American-style kitchen and open fireplace create a relaxed ambience for itinerary planning. With children's singles in bedrooms three and four, this home is better suited for family holidays than friend groups. Fancy a treat? Hire a buggy and ride by the rice paddies. While the nearest restaurant is 300 metres away, you can have a professional chef take care of dinner.

Home truths:
*The small single beds in two of the bedrooms are only suitable for children.
*There’s free parking on the driveway. Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*You won't find a welcome hamper or basic essentials here, so we'd recommend packing some bits and bobs to get you started. The nearest supermarket is 1.5 kilometres away.
