Vila Praia – Armação de Pêra, Portugal
In large gardens, facing the Atlantic, Vila Praia is a cool and airy, contemporary villa. With slick interiors and open plan living, it has a distinct modern Mediterranean vibe. We love how many of the rooms open out onto the terrace, which in turn steps down into the infinity pool, and there are plenty of spots to sit and enjoy the sun. The roof terrace is one of our favourite places to relax and gaze over the ocean.
Each and every one of the extensive resort facilities are just steps away, from tennis to golf, from the health club, to the ten restaurants. Staying here, you get the best of both worlds – your own luxury space and everything that Vila Vita Parc has to offer.

Armação de Pêra
West of Albufeira, Armação de Pêra sits around a large sandy bay, interspersed with little coves – the beach being a magnet for families. The old part of the village is lined with cobbled streets, contained within fortified whitewashed walls. The fishing boats are still pulled up onto the beach each morning, where there catch then makes its way to the many restaurants, here and further afield. At the headland of Nossa Senhora da Rocha, there’s a medieval fortress and tiny chapel, and the start of a spectacular coastal path.
Location
Facing the Atlantic, in the resort of Vila Vita Parc. The villa is just a few minutes from the beach and just a kilometre from the fishing village of Armação de Pêra.
