Vila Bela details
The name doesn’t lie: the Vila Bela in Albufeira, Algarve, Portugal certainly is a ‘beautiful villa’ and it’s your ideal holiday destination if you’re looking for a relaxing, inviting holiday villa that is replete with local charm and authentic Portuguese culture!
One of the oldest hotels in Portugal, the Vila Bela has been refurbished to a high standard yet it still retains all of its old-world charm and décor. Exposed stone and terracotta tiles perfectly frame white-washed walls and rustic blue-and-white tiles. The bedrooms feature original parquet flooring or tiles and feature the highly popular azulejo tiles. Neatly furnished and welcoming, they’re the ideal ‘base camp’ for your exploration of the local area.
Outside, a roof-top swimming pool steals the show and a generous sun-patio is relaxing and comfortable with excellent views. Take a leisurely stroll downhill and explore the local fishermen’s cottages, shops, tavernas and bars, or go further down to the town’s famous centre and sands. You can easily catch a taxi back up so why not enjoy a night out at the marina and sample the local culture and cuisine? The Vila Bela is a beautiful hotel in a rustic location, ideal for your holiday in Portugal!
