Vila Margarida is one of the best villas in the lovely family resort
of Praia da Luz. It has the luxury of being only an 8 minute walk
from the beach and most shops and restaurants, but still retaining a
very high degree of privacy owing to its lovely mature garden of
approximately an acre. The villa and heated pool are located fairly
centrally on the plot and have lovely views to the sea and cliffs
that overlook the beautiful bay. There is also a private hard
surface tennis court in the grounds exclusively for guests use.
Next to the pool is a wonderful covered bar, barbeque and dining
area draped with bougainvillea which stays wonderfully cool in the
heat of the day. This area also has a fridge with small freezer,
twin gas rings and a sink with hot and cold water making poolside
dining and drinking very convenient.
The villa itself has 4 bedrooms all on the ground floor. The master
double bedroom is very large with a dressing area and an en-suite
bathroom. This bedroom along with the two twin bedrooms have double
doors opening onto the pool terrace. These two twin bedrooms share
use of a family bathroom. The fourth bedroom is at the other side of
the villa with a large window looking out to the orchard area. Has a
double bed, a large window overlooking the orchard and an en-suite
bathroom.
On the first floor there is a large light airy lounge with three
sets of double doors opening to a wonderful large terrace with
lovely views to the sea. The lounge has ample seating for 8 people
and a modern TV, satellite and video, CD/cassette/radio. Adjacent to
the lounge is the dining room which also opens onto the terrace. It

large dining tables each of which will seat 8, one under a covered
