The hall provides access to almost all areas and an elegant staircase with automatic lighting along the step leads to the first floor. The turned steel with which the staircase is finished is really beautiful.

Through 2 French doors from the hall you enter the living room where you have a direct view (through the 3 glass fronts) over the swimming pool, the beautiful garden and the huge orchard where the villa is located. The living room also has a large TV with satellite reception for all your favorite channels. The house is also nicely furnished and there is a fireplace and central heating.

A 6-minute drive will take you to Rocha de Pena, where you can take a beautiful walk over a plateau. This walk is only 7 km but is famous for its beauty and diversity of portuguese nature. Really worth doing. There are also a wide range of walks to do in the area. Cyclists are also completely at home here. In Alte there is a true bicycle café and a starting point for organized bicycle tours.
There are also several golf courses within a fifteen minute drive and dozens within 30 minutes. Or visit the mill or the castle of Paderne. Do a safari tour or rent a quad. Prefer to relax by the pool? Everything is possible at this location.

Would you like a spacious and luxurious villa that is fully equipped, in the countryside next to a beautiful orchard?
However, if you also want to do activities and be up and running within 25 minutes, then Casa Pomar is the holiday villa for you.

Wow, this villa is amazing!
We stayed with our family for 10 days at Casa do Pomar. The pool is big and cooled us off as it was very hot outside. The house is perfectly cool with all the airconditioning units. Also the internet is perfect, there is a fibre connection so we could stream movies and have a zoom meeting with grandma back home. The house is beautiful and looks brand new . We loved the location, as it is overlooking an orchard and some hills. We had the time of our life here and will be back next year! Can’t think of anything.

Stunning Villa Algarve
What memories we made here as a family of 8! Incredible modern and spacious villa that really has the wow factor! The pool is huge and one of the main reasons for booking this villa. We played games every night under the sperate covered outdoor seating area alongside many a BBQ. A beautifully presented villa with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing time away from it all. Equipped with fibre internet and AC. Set in the hills near Alte it is so peaceful and surrounded by an orchard. About 30 minutes to some incredible caves and coastline. The communication before, during and after our stay have been excellent and would stay here again with Portucasa in a heartbeat. You will not find better and not be disappointed! Nothing

We had a fantastic holiday, the villa was absolutely stunning, so much bigger than we imagined! The swimming pool and outside dining area were beautiful! It was great having pool toys and games available for the kids. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and the scenery was really special. A very peaceful location. The nearest village is about a 5 minute drive, there are a couple of small supermarkets and cafés. The bigger shops and beach are roughly 30 minutes away. The booking process was simple and the agent was very helpful and accommodating. We look forward to coming back! Roanna Rogers

Great 3rd visit
We enjoyed our third visit to Casa Pomar very much. Our kids are already calling this our home away from home. They absolutely love the house and the area surrounding it, with Roca da Pena as their favourite spot. As they are growing up, the beautiful hikes are becoming more and more enjoyable for the whole family :-) The amazing views from the house and the blossom smells from the orange trees give you that instant holiday feeling. The house was impeccable as always, with the AC units being welcome addition to the bedrooms!

Glorious place
Communication was great with details sent via Whatsapp, e-mail and a phone conversation to make sure we had no problems. The villa itself was absolutely stunning and there was plenty of groceries/goods to get our holiday up and running (Thanks for the wine!).The villa itself is remote which absolutely suited us but we could drive not too far for provisions. Loved this place. Can't find a negative. Suited us as a family. Anne Marie

Great relaxed week in a top notch villa
Instructions were very easy in order to get access into the house. Fantastically spacious villa. Was like it was brand new when we first entered. Little nice touches like spices, coffee etc already there Plenty of towels to use Portable speaker was amazing! Garry Couldn't work out how to open the gates once inside them other than use the fob. There was an issue with the drains towards the end of the holiday so reported it to be sorted.

Recent holiday
On our arrival , we opened the doors to a most spectacular villa , where all my family including two young children had a fabulous ten days There was a slight issue with the electronic gate, but after a message to the company, this was resolved immediately I would have no hesitation in recommending this to other people. Superb accommodation... beautiful, peaceful location. Although we kept all shutters closed throughout the day and opened up in the evenings, the villa was still very warm Although I think air con might spoil the visual aspect of the villa, maybe fans need to be included

The holiday home itself is a charming oasis nestled amidst the picturesque Algarve countryside
We recently had the pleasure of staying at Casa do Pomar in Alte, Portugal, and it exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a genuine desire to make our stay unforgettable. The holiday home itself is a charming oasis nestled amidst the picturesque Algarve countryside. The traditional Portuguese architecture combined with modern amenities created a perfect blend of comfort and authenticity. The house was immaculately clean, and the attention to detail was evident throughout. One of the highlights of Casa do Pomar is its stunning outdoor area. The well-maintained garden with a large swimmingpool and colorful flowers and fruit trees provided a tranquil setting for relaxation. We spent many evenings savoring local delicacies on the spacious terrace while enjoying breathtaking views of the surrounding hills. Inside, the large holiday home was tastefully decorated and thoughtfully furnished. The bedrooms were comfortable, and the kitchen was very well-equipped with everything we needed to prepare our own meals. The living area was cozy, with a fireplace that added a touch of charm during the cooler evenings. The location of Casa do Pomar is also worth mentioning. Alte, a charming village known for its authenticity, is just a short drive away. Exploring the narrow streets and enjoying the local cafés and restaurants was a delightful experience. Additionally, the property's proximity to other popular destinations in the Algarve region made it a convenient base for day trips. Last but not least, the hosts at Casa do Pomar were incredibly kind and attentive. They provided us with valuable information about the area, recommended hidden gems, and ensured that our every need was met. Their warm and friendly demeanor truly made us feel at home. In conclusion, I highly recommend Casa do Pomar for anyone seeking a memorable vacation in Alte, Portugal. The beautiful surroundings, comfortable accommodations, and exceptional hospitality made our stay truly exceptional. I cannot wait to return to this hidden gem in the Algarve. Jasmin Bruining

Beautiful countryside accommodation.
This accommodation is perfect for families and groups. It was clean and very well maintained. Communication with Portucasa before and during our stay was clear and fast and they immediately answered all our questions about the villa beforehand. The huge garden was covered by sun throughout the whole day so we could enjoy a sunset dinner outside. All amenities and inventory was taken care of so we didn't need to buy or bring anything ourselves (kitchen items for example). We noticed there were plenty of fresh towels for the duration of our stay, a small detail we really liked and did not find on any of our previous trips. The location is really nice for long hikes in a quiet and green environment and we felt like we were really far our into the countryside, although it was only a 15 minute drive to the beach. This combination of being close to all major cities and beaches but still have privacy and space was ideal for us. We would recommend this villa to everyone and definitely plan on visiting again! We visited during the winter months so the pool was too cold to use comfortably during our stay because it's not heated. This will most likely not be an issue during the hot spring and summer months.

Enjoying the lively spring colours & smells at Casa Pomar
Casa Pomar is a very spacious, clean, wonderful house. The kitchen is very well equipped and there's plenty of storage for groceries. The circular dining area is definitely our favourite place in the house! The garden with so many beautiful flowers and plants was a joy for our young children to play around. The swimming pool is very well maintained and although a bit cold in April, very enjoyable. Enjoying the garden with stunning views and wonderful smells from the nearby orange tree orchard made it an excellent getaway location. We will definitely be back!

Spledid luxary equipped villa in authentic backland area near Alte
Ideal place to experinece wonderful hollidays with family or groups of friends. Lot of privacy for everybody. We like the flowefull and well maintained garden very much. Walks in the direct surroundings of the villa (a guide is under development, so add your ideas). We enjoyed birdlife avery day just from our chair at the swimming pool. Nice, authentic towns to visit e.g. Alte, Loule, Silves and Paderne. Beaches at 25 km distance, Explore the coast. We enjoyed the mountainous region north of Alte up to Almodovar. A lot to discover! Will come again.

Perfect accommodation to stay
It is a beautiful house, spacious and like new, fully equipped, in a very nice environment. Beautiful swimming pool. We, including the children, had a great holiday. It is wonderful to stay in the house alone, but there are also plenty of fun trips to do. I don’t know any improvements

We have had a wonderful holiday at Casa de Pomar!!
It was difficult to find a suited accommodation for our group of 6 adults and 4 children but this one checked all the boxes! Multiple bed rooms, a large living room, wonderful dining table under a very high ceiling and a fully equipped kitchen. Besides that the kids were very happy with the large pool and big garden where they could play. The only thing that was not fully up and running yet was the wifi. The next time that we go on holiday with a larger group we will certainly visit Casa de Pomar again. Based on our positive experience some friends of us have also visited the accommodation and we have understood that the wifi is now working seamlessly. None, just keep up the high standard and we will book again

A wonderful time spent in a beautiful setting.
When you arrive at the accommodation you are already happy, you are in the middle of a very beautiful environment. Lots of orange trees and other beautiful trees. The garden with a nice large swimming pool is beautifully landscaped. Beautiful views of the hills. The accommodation feels very spacious, there are plenty of rooms and bathrooms available all in their own color and style. The pergola in the garden is also wonderful to eat or sit with many people. Definitely a place to go back to again. There is not a lott to improve, It's so complete.

Férias 2022
A casa é excelente com muito espaço, uma piscina espetacular e muito bem equipada No dia que chegámos à casa foi logo lá uma empresa porque um esgoto da piscina estava entupido. Mais tarde foi lá o Paulo porque estávamos sem água. No dia seguinte foi lá a empresa para verificar do furo pois a casa estava a ser abastecida com a água da vizinha. Estiveram lá o dia todo e no final indicam que o problema estava resolvido. No entanto tivemos problema quase todos os dias com água. Uns dias sem água (inclusive tivemos de lavar loiça com água de garrafão e nem todos puderam tomar banho numa das noites) noutros dias com a água a sair castanha. É inaceitável para o valor cobrado o que se passou. Tinha que andar a verificar se o depósito estava a ficar vazio para não ficarmos sem água. Tive que andar a desligar a bomba de abastecimento da casa pois estava sujeita a queimar. A limpeza da piscina é muito fraca, nunca vi brinquedos das crianças ficarem esverdeados por estarem dentro de água. Existe manchas verdes nas escadas e no fundo da piscina. O jardineiro vai regar o jardim às 14h30, entra pelo portão sem qualquer aviso, quando damos conta está uma pessoa no jardim a andar de um lado para o outro. A casa vale o valor que praticam no entanto precisam melhorar muitos aspetos para ser um valor justo pois parecia que eu fazia parte da vossa equipe
