Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal

REFNO:543565. Sitting pretty moments from Praia Grande, this beachfront villa is a sun worshipper's dream. And not only is it close to the Atlantic, but there's also a private pool with panoramic views. With ample seating, including an alfresco dining table, your outlook will be nature-focused here. Though the interior is traditional rather than sleek, we love how homely it feels. We think it works especially well for families who'd like to split into smaller groups – the two self-contained apartments and a separate bungalow can make that happen. With a tick on location, daily cleaning included, and the possibility for events, you can see why this one caught our eye. Home truths: *While all the bedrooms and bathrooms aren't photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. *There’s free parking for up to ten cars here. *This home is made up of the main house, two self-contained apartments and a bungalow. *The swimming pool isn't fenced but can be covered. If you're bringing kids, they'll need to be supervised around the pool. If you are travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. *There are stairs to climb up to the first floor. *If you want to stock up on essentials during your stay, you'll find the closest supermarket minutes away.
