Villa in historical city of Estoi, pet-friendly,Tourism register 7698/AL - Peaceful Location, Rolling Countryside, 15 Minutes By Car To Faro Beach, Other Beaches Close
This modern villa is comfortable and perfect for outdoor living. The newly painted villa is an independent house and the pool is not overlooked. The large garden is totally enclosed. Accommodation on one floor, nicely furnished with all modern comforts. Plenty of space for sunbathing and if shade is sought, there are lovely terraces around the house and a roof terrace. Shopping in Estoi and Sao bras about 5 mins drive. Shopping centre jumbo in Faro on the way home from the beach. A car is necessary. As we often use the villa ourselves we have provided it with all amenities: dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, dvd, satellite tv, air-conditioning and a remodeled kitchen. Estoi is well known for its palace that has become a pousada and for the roman villa. Both can be visited. A welcome pack can be prepared on simple demand (to be paid at arrival). We renewed the bathrooms in 2016 with walk in rainshower.
About Wilfried Van den Broeck
We live in Belgium and we have 3 children, one boy and 2 girls. My wife and I work, but we spend most of our holidays in Portugal, where we have friends and have fallen in love with the country. Since 1980 we have been travelling all over Portugal, and we know every spot. The Algarve is our preferred region especially the Ria Formosa Natural Park.
Wilfried Van den Broeck purchased this villa in 1996
Why Wilfried Van den Broeck chose Estoi
We and all our family love Estoi because of the beauty and peacefulness of the area. There are many beautiful beaches and places of interest in the neighbourhood like old Faro town and Olhao fish market. The area is easily accessible with Faro airport less than 15 minutes drive away. The climate is sunny and dry.
What makes this villa unique
The property is quiet and rest giving. Just 20 minutes drive to the city of Faro and an ample choice of beautiful beaches. The pool is private and comfortable with a large barbecue area. We provide for information about delicious restaurants when booking. The highlight is the garden. We are landscaping the garden in front of the villa and around the pool area.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Guest comments: we particularly liked the spacious lounge and dining area and the kitchen is very well equipped. We found the setting of the house very relaxing. 'we had a lovely relaxing holiday and really enjoyed our stay. Our little girl had a fabulous time spending most of her time in the pool'. The location was ideal - nice to retreat to at the end of a crowded day on the beach! 'pauline. The highlight was the garden. The landscaping is already a real plus and will be magnificent. The location is very relaxing and the villa is lovely. 'i will miss sitting outside having my early morning coffee with only the sounds of birds and crickets to be heard'. 'wir hatten eine sehr schöne und erholsame zeit und haben vor allem die terasse mit dem einmaligen panoramablick genossen. 'birgit 04/2012. The villa's location is ideal(local taxis found us easily, so we were able to go out in the evening.

A fantastic gem in the tranquility of the Algarve.
What can I say! This outstanding property was everything we hoped and more. Fantastically equipped, comfortable and so beautifully cared for. Great location, very easy to access and convenient. The property manager David is a delight and such a fantastic person to know you have on hand. If you need some peace away from it all, THIS is the place to go. Thank you so much.
Quiet rural location which was ideal for us. Everything you could possibly need for a fantastic hols
We loved the villa which had everything we needed. Very clean house on arrival and all utensils, cutlery, crockery, glasses etc very clean and plentiful.
We were disappointed on our arrival on the Sunday as the pool was very green and looked uncared for. David did sort it out on the Monday and all ok after that. It was a bad first impression.
We felt that lighting around the pool/garden would have added to making the environment for eating out in the evening even more enjoyable. The two spotlights were a bit too harsh.
Overall you have a beautiful home and we would highly recommend it.
Idyllic get-away-from it all
If you like being off the beaten track, in the peace and quiet but with easy access to all that the Algarve offers then this exquisite little villa is for you. Very well equipped with everything and more that you need for self catering, comfortably furnished with two top of the range bathrooms we had a fabulous week in and out of the pool and pretty garden. David and Jean the house managers are so welcoming and cannot do enough for you.
Close by are the charming towns of Estoi, S B Alportel and Moncarapacho - all worth a visit - and within easy reach is Tavira, Faro, Silves and the fabulous beach at Quinta do Lago.
We will be returning as soon as we can

Clean and beautiful many folders.
To be honnest we are there owners!
A great place to stay and relaxe.
One of the best holidays we have ever had, peace, quiet relaxing with a great pool, everything you could possible need and more, although a rural location, it's still only 3 miles to town with supermarkets and great restaurants.
David was on hand to meet and greet us he is only 100m up the hill should you have any problems of which we only had two miner ones but these were sorted within 24hrs, what more could you ask for, he was also a pleasure to meet and a font of knowledge about the area.
We will be returning to recharge our batteries soon.
Alan and Val.
Fantastic holiday spent in this gorgeous, spacious and private villa
We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay at Uma Casa Portuguesa. It really felt homely and there was everything you could possibly need for your stay. The beds were really comfortable too.We all enjoyed the outdoor space. The swimming pool is very safe for children and is set in a pretty and private garden, and the views were lovely. After going out to one of the many lovely local restaurants we spent time star gazing in the evenings as they were so clear-we even saw 6 shooting stars!
David who managed the property was extremely helpful and responsive to our needs which was very useful.
There are lots of gorgeous beaches to explore, pretty towns like Loule to visit and the cork woods are fascinating. We would love to visit again soon, and would definitely recommend this to our friends.
