Luxurious Algarve Homes Steeped in Tradition at Quinta do Lago
"Such a treat! Quaint and picturesque with bucolic charm!" - Reviewed by Deborah
Nestled in lush, verdant grounds, enjoying the tranquility of the Quinta do Lago community and bursting with traditional features, this Algarve home available for short-term rental has a unique soul. Just a few steps onto the patio morning, noon or night reveal a lush and picturesque scene: trees swaying to the warm Algarve breeze, a manicured lawn, and a pool that sparkles with the reflection of the endless blue skies or starry nights for which the Algarve is renowned. Here, all guests are sure to revel in the moment.
Whitewashed walls, a trellis-topped alfresco dining area, exposed beam ceilings… the list of classical features in this property could go on and on. Whichever way you look, the result is truly stunning. There is an organic flow of energy and light between the interior and exterior spaces. In many senses, this property invites the splendor of its surroundings inside.
Tiled floors and stone walls in neutral colors inform the interior décor and are complemented by stylish and modern furnishings. The spacious, farmhouse kitchen is perfect for guests who like to cook together and really fits the aesthetic of the Algarve home as a whole. And let’s not forget the central courtyard. Dominated by a mature tree and painted a rich red, it is the perfect place to enjoy the first and last moments of the day when you are seeking serenity.
