A beautiful villa that has something for everyone…
Please note that the pool cannot be heated between November and March, as the nights become too cold to be able to maintain the water temperature, and the fee to have it switched on is now £200 per week.
Imagine a large beautiful white villa in the Algarve, bathed in sunlight around a tranquil heated pool. You can wander round the enclosed grounds and gardens to find a shady spot and perhaps pluck a lemon from one of the lemon trees for your G&T that you’ll have at sunset on the roof terrace, listening to your favourite tunes, whilst taking in the stunning sea views and mountains.
Maybe you are there with your loved ones or friends, enjoying a barbeque by the pool or finding your own quiet space on one of the several terraces and seating areas.
Perhaps in the evening you’ll take a stroll down to the town to decide which fabulous restaurant to eat in, whilst deciding what do to next day. Shall you play golf at one of the nearby clubs or nip to the tennis club and spa. Or maybe the kids will want to go to one of the waterparks, if you can get them off the Xbox or the table football in the villa.
Vila Eira Dos Moinhos is a gorgeous traditional villa with a 10m x 5m private pool (which can be heated for an additional £200 per week), set in a large mature garden with orange, lemon and palm trees, in walled grounds.
The house, in a quiet residential area of Carvoeiro, is designed for total relaxation, privacy and enjoyment for couples, families of all ages or friends holidaying together.
Set within well-tended grounds with mature shrubs, striking palms and cacti, its peaceful location is also ideal for those wishing to be close to restaurants, local shops and a mere twenty-minute walk from several beaches, or just a few minutes drive. The local golf course is just 1 mile away.
The large grounds provide plenty of space for everyone and be able to maintain privacy. The large driveway to the front is enclosed by electric gates, with plenty of parking for several cars. There are orange and lemon trees as well as herbs for those wanting to avail themselves.
The stunning pool is undoubtedly a highlight and can be enjoyed during the day and at night with the recently installed mood lighting.
For little ones, there are gates provided for peace of mind, which can be utilised around the pool area as well as the villa grounds enclosed by walls with electric gates to the front.
The interior of the villa is traditional with contemporary touches such as a Dolce Gusto coffee machine in the kitchen.
We now have a table football and swings to keep the kids (both big and small) entertained, as well as an XBox.
From the kitchen, the dining area has views looking across the valley towards the mountains. There are also patio doors to the internal courtyard, for some al fresco dining, where there is a built in BBQ, table and chairs and stairs leading up to the roof terrace. There is also a small outdoor fridge to keep drinks cool in the sun, so you don’t have to keep going back to the kitchen.
The roof terrace has recently been refurbished and boasts panoramic sea and mountain views. It’s the perfect spot for sundowners, overlooking the sun-drenched pool and gardens, from the comfort of the sofas or sun loungers.
There are several areas for outside dining: by the pool area are 2 large seating areas, one covered for those wanting shade to enjoy meals, whilst keeping an eye on the kids in the pool. Adjacent to these seating areas is another BBQ area.
The ground floor is flooded with light through the sets of patio doors which open onto the internal courtyard and another overlooking the pool. In the living area, you’ll find a flat screen TV with full selection of English channels, DVD player leather sofas to sink into after an action-packed day…or a day lounging at the beach or pool. One of the sofas can be converted into a bed, so if there are 8 people in your party, we can accommodate the extra 2 guests for a small additional daily rate.
Each of the bedrooms have doors opening onto terraces overlooking the pool. The master bedroom opens onto a terrace with its own dining area and the other bedrooms’ terrace also have their own table and chairs. All bedrooms now have airconditioning.
Carvoeiro has a wide selection of bars and a large variety of shops and restaurants, which are found within easy walking distance of the villa.
There are several beaches in walking distance:
Carvoeiro beach with lovely golden sands and dramatic cliffs.
Praia do Carvalho, a stunning, small, sheltered beach, accessed via a tunnel with a beautiful view of a stack in the sea, it lile a smuggler’s cove.
There are some great features to this beach, the entrance in is amazing and there is also a small room carved into an area to the left of the steps. Kids love it!
Vale Centianes is the beach that the locals in Carvoeiro come to.
Being the closest large beach to Carvoeiro and within walking distance, it’s a good alternative to the beach in the centre of town.
The facilities here are very good with the beach activities, restaurant and concessions all being run well and available throughout the summer months.
One of our favourite beaches, Praia da Marinha, is a short drive away.
This beach has been voted as one of the most beautiful in the world and from the moment you step out of the car you can see why.
Wind your way down the pretty step pathway to the beach itself which has incredible views of the stacks out to sea.
Because it is award winning, the beach is very popular, especially in the high season but don't let this put you off as there is plenty of space for everyone at high tide with a small beach area in front of the restaurant and a larger area that can be accessed at lower tide times round to the right.
This is a lovely, family-friendly part of the glorious Algarve coast and in Vila Eira Dos Moinhos, you are guaranteed a perfect holiday home from which to enjoy it.
Faro airport is only 45 minutes away by car. Airport transfer and car hire can be arranged upon request.
