In the Old Village neighbourhood of Vilamoura, this modern villa puts the long sandy beach, restaurants, supermarkets and bars on your doorstep. Choose between days on the golden sand nearby, or lazing by the long infinity pool. There’s a covered dining area for shaded lunches and plenty of loungers to soak up the rays. The open living area inside is big enough for social gatherings and there’s an additional hang-out space in the basement with a ping-pong table. The decor feels a little sparse, so this place would suit fans of minimalism, rather than homeliness.
Home truths: *This home is split across three levels, so it may not suit those with limited mobility.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*With a supermarket 0.5 kilometres away, having a car is not necessary. However, there is private parking should you wish to hire a car.
