Villa Mujeira is a charming hilltop bungalow located in the popular area Quinta das Raposeiras in the Algarve. The views from the villa are breathtaking, masterfully displaying a panorama of the ocean and mountains, with the sparkling lights of Faro in the distance. A twenty-minute drive from the airport and within walking distance of the local restaurants and sports clubs, the location is perfect for exploring the best the Algarve has to offer.
The villa itself is located on a south-facing hill, where a series of charming villas sit hidden amongst the greenery. A short fifteen-minute walk down the hill is a tennis club with three courts and a padel court. You will also find the renowned restaurant Raízes, which is a must-visit during your stay.
Situated between the towns Loulé and São Brás de Alportel, there are supermarkets and conveniences all within a ten-minute drive of the villa and an endless array of fantastic restaurants to choose from. There is a fantastic covered market in Loulé that we would recommend, as well as a trip to the affluent Vilamoura Casino. The casino has become somewhat of an institution, well recognised as a luxurious landmark which has played host to some of the world’s most iconic footballers. The casino offers over 500 slot machines and 12 live game tables, meaning that guests can gamble the night away in several different ways. There are also cabaret shows and performances to create an entire evening of entertainment.
The magnificent Igreja de Sao Lourenco, ten minutes from the villa, speaks to the deeply significant religious history of the area. Translated as the Church of Sao Lourenco, this monument has been standing since 1730 and is one of the most visited landmarks in the region. The beautiful architecture and remarkable blue tiles, and ornate artefacts inside must be seen in person to be properly appreciated.
For beach lovers, there are stunning beaches just a twenty-minute drive from the front door. In fact, you can hop on one of the ferries from Olhão, Faro, Fuseta or Tavira to the sandy islands in the protected lagoon landscape of the Ria Formosa.
The central location within the Algarve means the luxuries of Vale do Lobo, and the amenities of Quinta do Lago are also only a twenty-minute drive away, providing endless beaches to visit, sights to see, and places to go during your stay.

We had a wonderful family holiday at Villa Mujeira. The villa is securely tucked away at the top of a housing development and has the most wonderful views. The villa was well equipped and included a coffee machine, dishwasher and washing machine. We especially enjoyed the large outside pool. Communication with the villa owner was excellent. The villa is well located to explore the Algarve by car.

Gorgeous villa with a very spacious swimming pool and a lot of privacy. The home is located up in the mountains so the view is a absolutely amazing. The home owner is friendly and very helpful. He welcomed us on our first day and did everything in his power to make us feel at home. Thank you. We will definitely come back!

Just returned home from 10 nights at this amazing villa. The photos don’t do the views justice. The property is spacious, comfy and has everything you need. The pool area is one of the best we’ve ever experienced. You are located in a lovely secluded area and it’s very peaceful. Matias is really helpful and put us at ease. One of the mattresses was uncomfortable and he replaced it the next day with a brand new one. Loved every second and we will return.
