Casa Monte Das Oliveiras 3 bedrooms ~ Sao Rafeal - Algarve

Casa Monte Das Oliveiras is one of ATOL and ABTA bonded Villa Parade's elite properties from their Platinum range. It is a modern holiday villa in an excellent location with several restaurants and the stunning sandy beach of Sao Rafael all within easy walking distance.

The villa is finished to a very high standard with high quality fixtures and fittings, state-of-the-art appliances and cool and contemporary furniture. The garden is a great place to spend endless days bathing on the sun-terrace which surrounds the pool or relaxing under the shade of the covered terrace which is a great place to enjoy a barbecue. There's a lovely lawn area which is great for children to play. There's also a poolside shower here too. Casa Monte Das Oliveiras is in a prime location in an exclusive residential area of Sao Rafael which is a lovely small beach resort in Albufeira. The beautiful beach, which is home to a great fish restaurant, is just 600m from the villa. The nearest supermarket, bar and restaurant are all within 400 metres and the restaurants, shops and bars of old town of Albufeira is just a 4km drive away. There are many beaches just a short drive away along the Albufeira coastline which are well worth a visit for beach lovers. Some of the best restaurants can be found on these beaches and they're great for a casual fish-lunch or a more formal evening dinner.

Albufeira is a lively and historic resort on a beautiful part of the Algarve's curving coastline. Seven gorgeous sandy beaches with dramatic rock formations stretch both east and west of the town - from the long beach of Praia D'Oura to a string of small coves carved out of honey-coloured cliffs. It's still a working fishing town, with boats and the mending of nets on the beach. And the new marina has confirmed Albufeira as a contemporary sailing centre. You can take sailing trips along the coast, try windsurfing and diving, or hire your own boat for a short spin. The resort itself is as lively or relaxed as your holiday. There's a historic old town with steep narrow streets and whitewashed buildings - and a lively party strip for sparkling nights in bars and clubs. More relaxed evenings centre around waterfront restaurants - with Portuguese regional cooking, cafés and bars with lovely Algarve wines. There's lots of great shopping in Albufeira too - with traditional Portuguese design and weekly specialist markets. The Algarve is famous for its world-class golf courses and there are three great courses a short drive from Albufeira. The area around Albufeira is as beautiful as its beaches. There are lots of walks and inland the countryside has gorgeous views back out to sea.
