House on the hillside, sea view, private pool, large enclosed landscaped garden

Typical house of Algarve, entirely renovated, cool and comfortable, with no vis-à-vis. Located at hillside, in a very quiet hamlet, in the middle of the orange groves, with unobstructed view garanteed on the bay of Vilamoura. Its large and entirely closed landscaped garden with olive-trees, umbrella pines, palm trees, almond trees, bougainvilleas, birds of paradise…, its swimming pool and its terrace of 100 m2 with solarium and pergola make this residence a very difficult place to leave. Kept away from traffic and noise, the 'Moradia do Cerro' is ideally located halfway between seaside, countryside, fabulous golf courses, main cities and small villages, as well as surrounding tourist attractions among which the frentic nightlife of the town of Albufeira with its pubs and nightclubs.

Lovely villa
The property was lovely; clean, well equipped and very private. The best bit was the large, saline pool. The pool and garden area was peaceful and not over looked at all. All the facilities of the region are an easy drive away. We particularly enjoyed Zoomarine and the markets at Loule.

The most idyllic place to stay for a family holiday
We absolutely loved our stay at the house on the hillside. The location, the villa, and the amenities were all perfect. Nestled on a hill next to traditional homes, it is such a peaceful and beautiful space with the most stunning garden. A lot of care has been taken with everything. The mattresses and pillows were incredibly comfortable (very important to us); they felt like Tempur pillows. The outside space is perfect for sunny evenings, and there is a barbeque available for use as well. The villa has everything you could need. We hired a car, and the villa is just 15 minutes from Vilamoura Marina and the beach. There are also some fantastic Portuguese restaurants within a short drive. Brigette, the host, was communicative, informative, and nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back. Thank you for everything Brigette!

Beautiful Villa
The villa was beautiful, very clean and well equipped, with wonderful outside spaces and a fantastic pool. The pool felt a little chilly at first, but was very refreshing in the heat. The area around the villa is very quiet, well away from the normal hustle and bustle of holiday resorts. Due to the villa's location, a car is necessary, but then there is very easy access to local towns and fantastic sandy beaches. The villa is an easy 30 minute drive from Faro airport. Brigitte (the host) was very helpful before and during our stay.

Perfect
After the last few years with covid etc this was THE perfect property for my family's first holiday "in the sun". The Algarve is naturally beautiful, and its people very welcoming, but this property is sublime. The hosts, and local team, were prompt with accurate advice and guidance while providing the perfect accommodation for us. Extremely well equipped, nothing wanting. Local amenities, great weather and the pool where our boys learned to swim and appreciate suncream. Thank you Brigitte and your wonderful property.

An ideal family holiday
The villa is situated in a rural location providing privacy but the major routes are easily accessible making it an ideal place for a family to enjoy the Algarve beaches and coastal areas, market towns and retail outlets. The villa itself is very well equipped, has been tastefully modernized and offers plenty of space to relax and unwind. The owner provided a lot of essential and local information, responded quickly and helped us to make the most of our holiday. My only regret was booking only a week as there is so much to see and do and I would love to return

The house was part of the family after a day
We spent a week at Moradia do Cerro with a baby, a toddler and my in-laws this summer. Everything was spotless clean and the owner was kind and responsive. The house is so well equiped, we found more utensils and appliances than at home! Everything was good quality and well taken care off. The house decoration is simple but extremely clean. The garden is beautiful and the swimming pool is to dream of. The neighbourhood is quiet and isolated, which is what we were looking for. We spent every nigh drinking wine in the terrace, under the light of the moon, and every morning swimming in the pool. It was the ideal family vacation and we can't wait to be back!

Best place for Family Time
We decided to have a short family reunion at Moradia do Cerro. That was the best place we have rented in years. Nice, charming house with a big kitchen and everything you need to cook your meals. The outdoor space is very spacious and we spent hours outside, talking and enjoying the views. There is also a grill outside that we used to cook our dinners. The pool is big and the area around the pool is good for those lazy hours under the sun. Brigitte was very responsive and she actually allowed us to have a late check out for no extra fee, thank you so much for that. Overall very nice experience! We had such a nice time, we only regret that we have not stayed longer :)

Brigitte’s house is just everything you wish - beautiful garden, well equipped, fantastic pool, quiet neighborhood, good beds, three good bedrooms, really nicely decorated, large terrace and so on. The house was clean, check in easy. The neighborhood we did not check out much as we stayed around the house mostly. Brigitte is very kind and we were very happy and grateful to have found the house.

Tolle Unterkunft!
Wir haben unseren Urlaub in der Villa sehr genossen! Das Haus, besonders die Küche, ist mega gut ausgestattet. Es fehlte uns an nichts! Der Pool war sauber und das Grundstück ist schön angelegt! Unser Sohn hat sich mit Freude jeden Morgen um die Versorgung der Katzen gekümmert! Die Kommunikation mit der Gastgeberin lief tadellos. Wir haben uns in dieses wundervolle Land verliebt, woran auch die Unterkunft einen Anteil hatte. Kleiner Kritikpunkt, der die Bewertung aber nicht negativ beeinflussen soll: Sitzauflagen für die Stühle draußen wären schön gewesen. gekümmert. gekümmert!

Beste Unterkunft die ich bisher hatte
Der Aufenthalt war bestens. Die Ausstattung geht einfach nicht besser. Alles war blitz blank sauber. Der Gasgrill war einsatzbereit! Die Betten waren bequem. Der Pool war mit 22 Grad trotz warmer Lufttemperatur sehr angenehm. Zur Umgebung: Wir hatten 14 Tage jeden Tag etwas anderes unternommen. Die Position ist recht zentral der Algarve. Wir konnten entlang der Algarve alle geplanten Ziele schnell erreichen. Vielen Dank für den sehr schönen Urlaub.

Great accommodation near Vilamoura
Very nice and well-maintained house, with spacious rooms, good beds and a perfectly equipped kitchen with a large fridge, a dishwasher and washing machine. The outdoor space is also large and beautiful, and the pool is great. Two big BBQ’s are available. Communication with the owner, Brigitte, was clear and quick and she helped us out immediately (even on a Sunday) when there was a technical WIFI-problem. The house is located in a quiet area on a very narrow road, so you need a car – and proper driving skills – to get there. Beaches and towns are at a 15 – 20 minute drive.
