Villa Nelin

Description

Boasting breathtaking views of the Portuguese countryside, Villa Nelin is the epitome of Algarve bliss and the perfect basecamp for exploring the nearby towns and villages. It is only a short drive from Faro as well, so connections to and from the airport are convenient.

The charming aesthetics of the villa combine a potent blend of contemporary style and Portuguese tradition (note the iconic azulejos tiling), which grounds the property in both comfort and authenticity. No expense is spared on the furnishings of the six bedrooms either, four of which have large double beds. If you're travelling in a big group you'll be relieved to hear that Villa Nelin has four bathrooms, avoiding any long ques!

Be sure to take advantage of the spacious terrace area, which comes complete with a sheltered granite dining table, a barbeque and an open seating feature just perfect for soaking up the sun. It almost goes without saying, but the undisputed centrepiece of the property is the large private swimming pool. Located below the terrace, you can experience a moment of glamour as you walk down the white marble steps to the waiting waters. The pool's location makes it easy to keep an eye on the children from the overlooking balcony as well, so they can splash around all afternoon without you having to worry. A table tennis feature adds to Villa Nelin's family appeal.

For those rare times when the sun hides, Villa Nelin is more than prepared for a bit of time indoors. Grill some camarao (prawns) in the fully equipped kitchen or relax with a spot of television (fitted with English speaking channels). The living room fireplace adds a rustic appeal and is an ideal distraction for those hunter-gatherer dads in the colder months. As for internet connections, we know how inseparable kids can be with their phones, so they'll be pleased to discover the villa's rapid WiFi network. Villa Nelin covers all the usual amenities as well, including central and underfloor heating, a microwave, oven, washing machine and a dishwasher.

Villa Nelin is a fantastic choice for large groups and families alike, with its location in the heart of the Algarve making it a prime location for any type of holiday. It comes fully air-conditioned as well, something you'll be grateful for when the mercury hits 35°.
