Luxurious 3 Bed All Ensuite Villa,Private Heated Pool,Spectacular Valley Views

Casa Boa Sorte is a spacious and beautiful air-conditioned villa nestling in the tranquil hillside of Cerro da Mesquita. The villa has recently undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment for the enjoyment and comfort of our guests, which includes Wi-Fi. All bedrooms are now ensuite and furniture and furnishings are of a very high standard. Specification includes Super King Vi-Spring mattresses, solid walnut low-end sleigh bed, rosewood and metal bedsteads and under floor heating to all bathrooms. Outside the villa now benefits from a large Kamado Joe BBQ, in addition to the traditional Portuguese BBQ, and rattan outdoor furniture.

The new pool cover ensures that the large roman ended heated salt (slight) water pool maintains the perfect temperature between use. The villa affords total privacy making it an ideal place to spend a family holiday, honeymoon or romantic break and enjoys spectacular uninterrupted and panoramic views across the valley with views out to the sea. Easily accessed from the main road and situated on a made up and lit private lane with off road parking for two cars, Casa Boa Sorte is just a few mins drive or bike ride from the delightful unspoilt town of Sao Bras de Alportel, once the cork capital of Portugal with its restaurants and all the facilities you'd expect to find in a small town including a choice of supermarkets including an Intermarche. Pavement cafe's are a plenty for times when you just want to enjoy a mouth watering cake and coffee and do a bit of people watching. Sao Bras is a favoured destination of some very well known celebrities who have come to relax and enjoy the laid back atmosphere, so you never know who you might be sitting next to, as you widen your eyes and whisper "is that who I think it is" and the answer we can tell you is probably yes. But everyone respects their privacy. Leaving Sao Bras an easy 20 minute drive will take you to Loule, the coast and beaches, golf courses and Faro airport. Tavira and the Spanish border town Ayamonte are also within easy reach and Lisbon is a 2hr drive. With its unique microclimate and sheltered positon, Sao Bras is one of the Algarve's best kept secrets and the location couldn't be more ideal for exploring the best the region and the Algarve has to offer.

Absolutely fabulous stay
An excellent, well-appointed villa. The swimming pool is better than any we have enjoyed in other similar villa holidays worldwide / five star hotels. The finishing, furnishings, appliances, A/C were all of a very high standard. The views and the terraced gardens are a whole lot better than the internet pictures suggest. Michael was most accessible and helpful.

Summer 2023 Family Holiday
Very secluded and private villa which we loved. Easy to find with the directions provided. Close to supermarket and dinning facilities. Central for visiting various sites in the area. Lovely spacious pool and veranda were the highlights and made the holiday very special for the children.

Peace and Tranquility
The villa is well off the beaten track, even the local taxi drivers struggled to find it. It has stunning views morning, noon and night. The local town is a five minute drive and is very cheep for eating out (Lois chicken is a must), there are a few supermarkets if you choose to use one of the magnificent BBQ"s in the villa. The villa is well furnished and it was nice that all bedrooms were ensuite.

The perfect home away from home. Luxury with all the added comforts.
The property is most certainly 5* accommodation. The facilities are perfect and have everything you need plus lots more. The kitchen had every appliance you could hope for and had a lot of everything. We spent very little time if any in the lounge, that was predominantly used as a walk through to get outside. The outdoor seating was perfect, extremely comfortable. The pool was a great size and clean and deep with stunning views. The only slight negative would be that the shower head in the upstairs bathroom was faulty and the shower on offs took a bit of working out but it made no impact on our stay. It would also have helped to have a bit of a welcome pack to give some information on the area, local supermarket, restaurants etc. But again, we are quite adventurous so not a massive deal for us. Car is absolutely essential. We will def recommend and re visit the property. Thank you for our memorable stay.

Fabulous villa
We've recently returned from a 10 day stay at the villa and had a fantastic time. We were a family of 6 and there was more than enough space for us all. The villa was exceptionally clean and well equipped. The pool was perfect. There were some wonderful restaurants costing just a few euros in a taxi to get to, so only minutes away. The square in Sao bras is lovely too, a real unspoilt Portuguese town. The location was perfect for visiting tavina, faro and ayamonte in Spain, all approximately 30 minutes drive away and all definitely worth a visit. We also had a day trip to Lisbon which was fabulous; a long day but worthwhile. Overall a very enjoyable holiday.

Lovely Villa In Ideal Location
Villa is ideal in terms of location,standard , space and appliances. I holiday in villas three times a year and this one is as good as and better than most. Journey from airport was as indicated a simple twenty minute drive given the directions Michael had supplied. Already thinking of returning next year.
