About this property

Beautiful Villa with pool and stunning views to the coast.

Villa Pica Pau (woodpecker) is situated on the quiet, pine-clad slopes of the gently rolling Serra de Monchique with arguably some of the best views imaginable, reaching all the way to the sea on clear days.

Lovely peaceful holiday
We had a wonderful week at Casa Pica Pau. The location is very quiet with a stunning view to the sea. The children loved the pool, and the weather was hot but the villa remained cool through the day. Being provided with lots of towels for in doors and for the pool was a lovely bonus. The only very minor comment is it would have been helpful to have been provided with a few extra basic essentials on arrival (eg a couple of spare bin liners and a dish cloth and a little washing up liquid) just to cover us until we could go shopping. Otherwise , we seriously couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and enjoy our holiday in Portugal. Thank you so much.

Quiet peaceful house
A lovely, away from it all stay at this house. Very well equipped for all our needs. A perfect place for our 1 year old grandson to explore . Monchique is very nice, lots of restaurants, we liked Jardim das Oliveiras! We really enjoyed the beach at Aljezur, no sun lounges there, just a vast expanse of sand, good to watch the surfing. Lovely views of the coast from the house and pool area, would definitely return.
