About Villa Tareja l Located in the hills with spectacular unobstructed views of the mountains

Villa Tareja offers luxury, peace, and space, set in the hills just behind the town of São Brás de Alportel. From the living room and terrace, you can enjoy sweeping views of the impressive Serra do Caldeirão mountains, a panorama that never fails to impress.

The villa features three spacious bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. The large kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances. In the generous hallway, there is a separate toilet with washbasin. The 50 m² living room includes a separate dining and sitting area, with the sitting room standing out thanks to its 3.5-metre-high ceiling and pellet stove. Three sliding doors lead to the 30 m² terrace, which connects to the 37 m² sundeck. Here you will find the heated infinity pool, a striking centerpiece of the outdoor area that blends seamlessly with the mountain views. All bedrooms and the living room are equipped with air conditioning for cooling, heating, and air purification. The villa also offers free Wi-Fi, a Sonos sound system, and satellite TV with all Dutch channels.

The outdoor spaces are designed to make the most of the Algarve climate. The terrace features a comfortable lounge area and a large dining table with wicker chairs. On the sundeck by the infinity pool, teak loungers with soft cushions invite you to relax in the sun. Surrounded by olive trees, fig trees, and oleanders, the villa ensures complete privacy.


Villa Tareja is located directly on the Via Algarviana, the official hiking route that runs across the Algarve, and borders the natural area of Fonte da Tareja. This setting is ideal for walking, running, or mountain biking. It is the perfect choice for those seeking peace and privacy, yet still wanting amenities and attractions within easy reach. The historic center of São Brás and several supermarkets are just a five-minute drive away. Faro Airport, the beaches of Olhão and Tavira, and some of Europe’s finest golf courses can all be reached within 25 minutes.

Wonderful villa! Beautifully located with stunning views, just outside the city. Lots of privacy, a very well-equipped kitchen, and a lovely living room with nice extras like the Sonos system.

Just back from an amazing holiday. Villa Tareja is an absolute recommendation: beautifully located in the hills around Faro (20 km), total peace and quiet! From the lovely pool or the terrace, you can enjoy stunning views at any time of the day. The house is modern and tastefully decorated, equipped with absolutely everything you need. The photos truly reflect the reality. In the surrounding area, you can enjoy great excursions: the coastline, larger cities, and small villages... there's something for everyone, whether you're a nature lover, a hiker, or looking for peace or culture. This house guarantees an unforgettable (sun-drenched) holiday!

The house is truly beautifully located with a fantastic view. Plenty of peace and privacy. The house is fully equipped, and the kitchen is well-stocked for cooking your own meals. A great base for excursions, with a supermarket just 5 minutes away.

Wir haben nun zum zweiten Mal bei Tom ein Haus gebucht, und wieder mal war es perfekt. Ruhig und wunderschönes gelegenes Haus, mit allem was man braucht und sich wünscht. Ich kann das Haus nur weiter empfehlen. Wer Ruhe braucht und eine schöne Aussicht in die Natur haben will ist hier richtig. Tom ist ein exzellenter und seriöser Vermittler für die von Ihm angebotenen Ferienhäusern, immer erreichbar und hat immer bei eventuellen Problemen eine Lösung. Bis zum nächsten mal Tom und vielen Dank für alles. Thomas

Lovely view

The house is spacious and clean. We were there with our family, including 2 children. There are 3 large bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. The view is stunning! The village with a few restaurants is nearby, and Tavira is a 30-minute drive away. It was a wonderful stay!

Location & site
Algarve - Alportel

Alportel in the Algarve is a peaceful village surrounded by rolling hills, cork oak trees, and traditional stone houses. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, enjoy local life, and explore the quieter, authentic side of southern Portugal.

Nearest Beaches
Although Alportel is set inland, the beaches of the central Algarve are just a short drive away. The coastline near Faro and Olhão offers both lively and hidden spots, with golden sand and calm waters. After a morning walk in the hills, spending the afternoon at the beach is a perfect way to unwind.

Authentic Villages and Towns
Close to Alportel lies the town of São Brás de Alportel, where daily life still moves at a relaxed pace. You’ll find markets, small cafés, and traces of the town’s cork-producing history. Slightly further away, the town of Loulé brings a livelier scene with its historic center and local festivals.

Attractions and Activities
The area around Alportel is ideal for nature walks, bike rides, and scenic drives through the hills. Families can enjoy visits to nearby farms or quiet picnic spots, while adults might explore local artisan shops or take a cork trail to learn about this important tradition. Whether you want rest or gentle adventure, Alportel offers a beautiful, laid-back setting.
