Overview
Villa Smaragda is a quintessential Portuguese Villa located on the breathtaking cliffs of Club Atlântico. Enjoying panoramic views of the coastline and the cool ocean breeze of the Atlantic, this villa is perfect for your next family holiday to the Algarve.
Only a short walk away from the white sandy beaches of the famous Praia do Carvalho Beach, and just short drive from the charming town of Carvoeiro, there is no shortage of exciting adventures to enjoy during a stay at Villa Smaragda.
The villa has been decorated in a contemporary Portuguese style, with just the right balance of warmth and personality. Outside, the terracotta tiled roof and Spanish revival style exteriors blend in naturally with the gorgeous landscapes of the Club Atlântico.
Inside, the Villa Smaragda boasts calming neutral decor throughout; while the occasional pop of citrus hues give the space a delightful charm. The villa features a fully equipped kitchen, ample open plan living space, and three spacious bedrooms - two twin bedrooms, and one generously sized double room.
Each one of the sun-filled bedrooms has its own en-suite and its air-conditioning; so you can cool off and take a break from the Portuguese heat. Villa Smaragda is equipped with all the amenities you need for a holiday in the sun including Wifi, television, dishwasher, coffee machine, microwave, and washing machine.
Large sliding doors in the living room open to an ample private garden and pool. Out here you can relax in the sun on your private sun-bed, take a refreshing dip in the swimming pool, or even enjoy an al-fresco barbecue with your family and friends.
Take a coastal drive and enjoy an evening out in Carvoeiro, where you can find all the best local restaurants and bars serving delectable, locally sourced Portuguese cuisine. This quaint town has everything you need from a supermarket, bank, English speaking medical facilities, and post office, all readily accessible for its many foreign visitors. All this and more make Villa Smaragda the perfect place to spend a holiday in the sun.
***Please note: the bathrooms all have pretty high sided walls in the shower, so that may not be suitable for young or less mobile guests.
***There is the owner’s office in the bedroom opposite the swimming pool.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa SmaragdaThe picturesque town of Carvoeiro is one of the Algarve’s undiscovered gems. Stunning coastlines stretch for miles, while golden beaches are hidden around every corner. As early as twenty years ago, this town was just a small and relatively isolated fishing village, mostly unknown to tourists.
After a huge development surge in the area, the Carvoeiro of today is an entirely different space. While it still retains its small-town charms, Carvoeiro is the perfect combination of Portugal’s rich cultural heritage and all the modern facilities and services a sun-seeking vacationer could ask for.
Unwind in its peaceful and relaxing ambience during the day, and revel in its vivid nightlife during the evenings - there is something for everybody in this small but alluring little town.Enjoy the unspoilt natural sceneries of the Algarve with all the region’s outdoor activities on offer.
Play a round of golf surrounded by gorgeous sandstone cliffs or go inland and walk the beautiful hiking trails of the Scenic Sete Vales Suspensos Hiking Route and climb the peaks of the Monchique and Foia Mountains. The magnificent Benagil Caves are a definite highlight and can be visited on a boat excision from the nearby Portimão Harbour.
While the town of Carvoeiro itself is full of character, it also serves as a beautiful home-base for discovering other areas in the region. Take a day trip to the traditional fishing village of Ferragudo, or the ancient capital of Silves, which is only 14km north of Carvoeiro. Here you can learn more about Algarve’s rich history, and marvel at the architecture of the Caste and Cathedrals.

THE REGION
Carvoeiro has always been known for its beautiful coastline, adorned with cliffs, coves and incredible sandy beaches stretching all the way along to Albufeira. These days, however, there is a lot more going on in this charming town than just waves hitting the sand (although that’s certainly still a highlight).
In the past few years Carvoeiro has developed to accommodate for the growing number of tourists who are curious to see what the fuzz is all about, and the town continues to get livelier and livelier each summer. While it has kept its character and remains exquisitely peaceful, there are also plenty of modern amenities and loads of exciting activities in the area. The only thing Carvoeiro won’t provide is a good party, but there are other parts of the Algarve which are perfect for that.
ABOUT THE ALGARVE
Though most people tend to see the Algarve as all about the beaches and a holiday on the Med, there’s far much more to it than that.
But while you’re enjoying one of our fantastic villas in Algarve, you may well want to take some time out from all that sun worship to explore everything else the region has to offer – so we’ve put together this handy travel guide to give you a little help and inspiration!
