The villa & casinha sit within their own grounds of 20000m2 (5 acres) offering unparalleled seclusion & breathtaking views due to its hillside location. Privacy & seclusion are guaranteed by our gated entrance. At night the gate pillars & driveway illuminate automatically giving a magical aura.
The pool terrace is a sheltered sun trap, facing south. The terraces are part paved, part gravel & afford generous areas for sunbathing, dining, or simply wandering about!
New for 2007 - our home designed solar heating system for the pool has been so successful that we have designed & built a spa - hot tub - paddling pool adjacent to the pool, so that people who cannot swim, or choose not to, can enjoy the relaxing warm spa bubbles
There is ample covered shade, poolside furniture & dining facilities for any size of group. A built in barbeque stands on a separate terrace nearby. At night the pool terraces can be floodlit and, together with lighting in the flower beds & lanterns around the villa & casinha, create a special after dark ambience.
The Quinta dos Sonhosis in a conservation area where wildlife proliferates. The hoopoe is just one of the visitors to the gardens.
