Villa do AbelharucoEN
Villa do Abelharuco is an elegant countryside retreat in the Algarve, set within a private 2-hectare estate just minutes from the historic town of Lagos and its stunning golden-sand beaches. Surrounded by pine trees and birdsong, it offers the perfect blend of tranquillity, comfort, and connection with nature.
The villa features four spacious en-suite bedrooms, each designed with simplicity and style to ensure restful nights. The fully equipped kitchen opens onto a dining area and outdoor terrace, perfect for sharing meals with family and friends. The dining room provides a welcoming space for long conversations around the table, while the living room is ideal for relaxing moments. A cosy mezzanine overlooks the living area — perfect for reading or playing games — and there’s also a private gym for guests who like to stay active during their stay.
Outdoors, the setting is designed for relaxation and connection. The private pool is surrounded by a lush lawn and sun loungers, while a newly built wooden deck with shade offers a comfortable spot for al fresco lunches or sunset drinks. The garden includes several peaceful areas where guests can unwind, enjoy a book, or watch the colourful bee-eaters that visit the property in spring — the birds that gave the villa its name.
To enhance your experience, we also offer optional services such as in-villa massages, private yoga or fitness sessions, meals prepared by local chefs, and guided cycling tours through the scenic trails of the Lagos BTT Centre.

Leave ReviewAbsolutely incredible House
By Tom Mason on 03-Sep-2025I stayed here for nearly 2 weeks, absolutely incredible House , wonderfully decorated with many ornaments and sculptures, in many ways the property is better than the listing implies. Electric gate was a big bonus of convenience and security. The surrounding views of the countryside were a big surprise, you have cows to the front and horses to the back. Big roof terrace with a telescope to observe the stars and has a great view of Lagos town in the distance. lovely soft grass all the way around the property, the owners were very welcoming, helpful and accommodating. I saw them most mornings as they come to water the grounds and clean the generously sized pool. Air-conditioning was only in the master bedroom, but we didn’t need it anyway, with a house that has that many windows and doors it was easy to get a breeze going through the house. Big thanks to the owners for aiding in us having a great vacation.
Fantastic vacation!
By David Morais on 17-Aug-2025Fantastic vacation! We spent 7 days at Villa do Abelharuco in Lagos and loved it. The pool is fantastic, with delicious water and stunning sunsets every day with a panoramic view. The house is huge, with all the amenities and a huge natural lawn area around the house where we played volleyball and soccer every day. A haven in nature just 5 minutes from the beaches. Perfect for disconnecting from work stress and relaxing with friends by the pool or on the deck with a view. The hosts are super friendly and helpful. We want to come back. I highly recommend it.
Était absolument fabuleux
By Maria Jonhson on 18-May-2025Nous avons séjourné à la Villa do Abelharuco pendant deux semaines en août, et c’était absolument fabuleux. Une vraie perle pour des vacances en famille au Portugal, dans l’Algarve. La villa est spacieuse, très bien entretenue, avec une grande piscine privée et un jardin magnifique rempli d’arbres fruitiers. C’est un endroit paisible et parfait pour se détendre. Grâce aux hôtes, nous avons même eu la chance de faire venir un chef privé à domicile – un service 5 étoiles ! Et tout ce dont nous avions besoin nous a été livré directement à la maison. Je recommande cette location de vacances à 100 % pour ceux qui cherchent une villa familiale avec piscine dans l’Algarve. Nous y retournerons sans hésiter.
