Fantastic luxury Villa front facing onto Vilamoura's famous Dom Perdo Pinhal golf course, this is one of the oldest courses and the second course built in Vilamoura. This stunning 4 bedroom all on suit property is built on two plots so the spacious one level property gives you ample space to enjoy. The two bedrooms facing the golf course have super king size beds with one of the on suit bathrooms having a jacuzzi corner bath for your enjoyment. Very large open plan living/dining room has an open fire place for winter and aircon for the hotter months. Outside has a substancial terraced area that surrounds the property with a covered bandstand area with seating for outdoor dinning over looking the swimmpool. This property is situated at the end of a quiet cul de sac with off street parking via a covered garage that leads directly into the property. A very enjoyable 25 minute walk will take you to Vilamoura's famous Marina which has a host of restaurants and upscale bars. Vilamoura casino is located near the Marina. You can also take many boat trip and excursions from the Marina should you wish. Beaches are never far away or just kick back by the villas pool and enjoy the sun.
Welcome and thank you for choosing to stay at Magellan. I hope your stay will be a relaxed and enjoyable experience. I hope you fall in love with the Algarve and choose to return many times to my beautiful country. I am Portuguese by nationality born in France married to an English lady so we cover many laugues should you need our advise, help or suggestions for anything.
Everything from Beaches to the waterslide park Aquashow are not far away. There are lots of boat trips that depart from the marina. Many great places to eat and drink around the Marina or local Quarteira. There is also mini golf if you don't feel like the real thing. A short walk away from the marina will lead you to several supermarkets pingo doce or Continent.
