Villa Hibiscus Beach House

Villa Hibiscus Beach House opens straight onto the sand of Praia da Galé, one of the Algarve's long golden beaches, on the edge of a nature reserve west of Albufeira. The garden gate leads directly to the beach, so the sea is part of every day.

Part of the Vila Vita Collection, the whitewashed villa has a relaxed boho-chic style, filled with pieces gathered from around the world: batik textiles, hand-carved figures and artisan furniture. Five beach-inspired bedrooms on the main level each have their own bathroom, and a sixth double bedroom with its own shower room sits on a lower level reached through the garden, giving extra privacy. In all, the villa sleeps twelve.

Inside, the open living and dining room has a fireplace and leads out to a shaded, furnished terrace, while the modern kitchen is fully equipped for family meals. Outside, the private pool sits within a gated garden screened from passers-by, with sun loungers, outdoor dining, a hammock and a barbecue.

An American-style breakfast is served daily and housekeeping comes every day. Bicycles are provided for exploring, and guests have access to the restaurants, bars and spa at Vila Vita Parc. The bars and restaurants of Albufeira and Guia, famous for its piri-piri chicken, are close by.
