Horabaixa

Horabaixa details

With its whitewashed walls, dark wooden shutters and terracotta roof, this place looks just how you’d expect a Spanish villa to look. Its surroundings are typically Mediterranean, too. Cue rolling green hills in the background and palm-lined streets. And the best part is, despite its tucked-away setting, the villa is in a really convienent spot. Shops and restaurants are only about a 15-minute walk away.

Inside, the villa is modern and comfortable, but still offers up plenty of traditional charm. Chunky wooden beams cling to the ceilings, while pine tables are surrounded by Victorian-style chairs. The whole place is spread out over one level, with the large, open-plan lounge and dining room taking centre-stage. The kitchen is a really good size, too, and comes with all the self-catering necessities like an oven, a microwave and a fridge-freezer.

As for the bedrooms, there’s one double and two twins. Looks-wise, they echo the villa’s rustic feel, with whitewashed walls and wooden furniture as standard. The double comes with its own en suite, while the two twins share a bathroom.

Step outside, meanwhile, and you’ll be greeted by a huge swimming pool. There's also a grassy lawn and plenty of sunloungers out here. A covered terrace offers up a shady spot for breakfast or lunch, while the barbecue is great for rustling up casual dinners.
