Villa Sara can be found in the quaint historic fishing village of Ferragudo. This picturesque place has done well to retain its charm, you can expect to see beautiful white houses rising from the sea and small fishing boats bobbing up and down in the estuary.
The villa is ideally suited for exploring the local area, just a ten-minute walk from the nearest beach there is no need to load up the car each day. Praia Grande is the largest beach in the area and has plenty of space for enjoying a day relaxing on the soft sand. The popular beach has a wide range of facilities available to make the day relaxing, with cafes, toilets and bars are servicing the visitors. As you might expect from a popular beach, there are plenty of activities to try out, a well-known surf spot, and it is the perfect place to catch a few waves.
The villa is also well located to enjoy restaurants and bars with a sea view. If you can be tempted to leave the villa, there are also a handful of restaurants and bars within a five-minute walk. Enjoy watching the sunset as you sip on a cocktail and get ready for an evening of fun, exploring the towns culinary scene. Wander the cobbled streets of Ferragudo and uncover quaint family restaurants and seafront bars, we recommend you try some of the local seafood dishes and of course Piri Piri chicken!
Whilst in the area, be sure to visit the Castelo de São João de Arade, a walk up the cobbled streets of the village will lead you to this impressive site. The castle dated back to the 16th century and was built to defend the area from pirates, it then became the summer residence of the poet Coelho Carvalho; however these days it remains unoccupied, but still well worth exploring even for the great views!
With stunning beaches all around the nearby coast and beautiful historic sites in abundance, this is a truly remarkable corner of the world and makes for a fantastic holiday destination from families and friends.

This was the best holiday we have ever enjoyed together as a family and I truly believe Villa Sara was central to our experience. This house, it design, layout and appointment is simply perfect. It lends itself to relaxation, personal space, comfort and elegant living. We will be returning to Sara next year. Thank you team Oliver!

We had a lovely time. We stayed here for 1 week in June with 10 adults. The house felt bigger than expected. Kitchen was equipped and we made a few meals during the week. Lots of different places to hang out inside and outside, we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. Loved the table on the front patio to eat outside. Lots of chairs by the pool for 10 of us. Also enjoyed the couch and outdoor fireplace and the rooftop for after dinner cocktails. The town and beach were close enough to walk to and lots of restaurants were a short Uber ride away. Host was very helpful and responded quickly. Overall exceeded expectations, highly recommend.
