Overview
Description
This lovely villa was built in 2003 and is in the small and select urbanisation called Magicum, very well situated on a hillside behind Luz. It is only just 5klms west of the market and fishing town of Lagos, and only 4klms to the well-known sandy beach and town of Luz. Other southern beaches, from Burgau and Vale do Boi to Praia da Salema are a 15-30-minute drive and the wild, west coast beaches are only a little further. There are 3 golf courses within a 30-minute drive; Boavista on the near side and Palmares on the far side of Lagos and Santo Antonio / Parque de Floresta to the west. Tennis courts can be hired in Luz and at Santo Antonio/Parque de Floresta. There is squash, a gym and a pampering beauty salon at Boa Vista. Riding stables are near by at Almadena and at Bemsafrim just a little further but with professional instruction. Both arrange rides in the countryside.The nearest village is Espiche which is perhaps a mile away down a side road where there is a local shop and 2 or 3 restaurants and bars. En route to Espiche there is a campsite which has a popular restaurant.
Casa Perucas is set in a walled-in garden, with climbers and succulents in a rocky bed around the terraces surrounding the lovely blue swimming pool. This rectangular pool is 10 x 5m and has built-in steps with a handrail at the shallow end as well as lighting. There is an oil-fired boiler to heat the pool if required (at extra cost in certain seasons, see below). There is a pool cover on a roller to be used to help retain the warmth at any season.
There are extensive views from the villa over the countryside to the Monchique hills. The rooms are spacious and the villa is attractive and well-furnished. Extras include TV with BBC and ITV, Wi-Fi, a docking station, a table tennis table, darts and overhead fans in the bedrooms for those who don't like air conditioning.

Good property, in a nice location, questionable management.
By Sam T on 08-Aug-2026We booked this villa at an increased cost in the high season, the villa itself is a lovely property, with well maintained gardens and pool, although there does seem to be a slight issue with rodents in the garden. The first problem arose on our arrival, where the key box code worked as expected but there was no key in the box! We attempted to contact the management company for this villa, but received no response for 4 hours. We found access via an unlocked patio door... and eventually communicated with the management company to explain the situation. The second problem came after our depature, our security deposit was withheld for 6 days and a £200 deduction was made for stains on towels that we were accussed of causing, not does this seem extortionate, but the stains are also consistent with that of a bleach/cleaning product stain! Despite this being a great villa, the management of the villa was not up to scratch for the price asked. It's a real shame as we had intentions to return.
Beautiful villa
By Laith on 08-Aug-2026Beautifull villa, beds and bedding need updating but perfect get away for big familys. Wonderful location and would recommend. One problem is we paid for villa and gad to bank transfer 600 as a deposit to a personal account, 3 days after we left the (owner i assume) took 200 pounds from our deposit saying we bleached or stained with sunscreen 8 beach towels. This was totally false as we washed towels every night. We believe it was the cleaners as we didnt use bleach one. We feel scammed and betrayed. Other than this it was lovely.
Wonderful Villa

Ideal villa for stay near Lagos
By Wray Bodys on 18-Jul-2026Casa Perucas was an ideal base for our holiday: spacious, comfortably furnished, clean and generally very well equipped. Showers were hot with good flow and beds were very comfortable. Location was great, just three miles from Lagos centre and only two from Continente, the nearest supermarket. We were a group of six, several times joined for meals and pool time by family staying nearby. The space and facillities easily accommodated larger numbers. The pool and surrounding tiled areas were ideal for fun and relaxation, with particularly good seating options and plenty of shade. A few glitches arose during our stay but they were all resolved very quickly and pleasantly by Nicola, the management company contact.
Wonderful stay at Casa Percas
By Joanna Sharp on 24-Apr-2026Mr husband and I had a lovely stay at this beautiful villa at the end of April 2026. Very close to the pretty village of Praia Da Luz with nice restaurants and lovely Beach. There was a large supermarket at Lagos which was just 10 minutes drive and further afield. The main A22 road was easily accessible so you can get to most places in the Algarve very easily. Set up away from the road so no road noise which was great. The rear of the villa has a lovely large pool with a small garden. The villa was well appointed and immaculately clean. We didn't pay extra for heating at the end of April and didn't find it cold at all. The ceiling fans were very helpful to keep the room cool at night without need for air conditioning. The owner's management team were very responsive when we needed to contact them. All in all a great stay and we will be back.
A spacious and well equipped villa
By David Fergusson on 25-Oct-2025Returning to Casa Perucas after 18 years with our, now adult, children was as enjoyable as ever. Lots of space both indoors and outside with a great pool. It was a joy to have a gas BBQ rather than fussing with charcoal. Easy access from the main road so within striking distance of our favourite beaches and restaurants. A few issues were quickly resolved by the villa management, despite it being a local bank holiday. Have already booked to return!
