NEW FOR 2026

 

One of the greatest draws of the superb Algarve coastline is its world-class sports and leisure facilities that cater for all levels from novice to pro. A stay at Villa Damar puts you close to the highly renowned resorts of Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo, with the added benefit of a private tennis court in your own villa grounds.

The villa sits on a large, secluded and enclosed plot near the Vale do Garrão residential development, encircled by lovely, lush gardens to give you enviable privacy as well as ample play space for the younger ones in your party. The pool is the centre of the outdoor attention here; generously sized at 12m long, with plenty of room on the terrace for quiet afternoons catching up on your reading, or a family barbecue night with your favourite people. Tennis fans should note that while the court wouldn’t pass muster at Wimbledon, it is ideal for leisure players looking for some game play without having to book a slot or even leave the grounds. And whether or not you play, the sense of space and absence of any near neighbours at Villa Damar really does make it feel like your own private holiday oasis.

When you want to feel sand between your toes instead of grass, glorious beaches flanked by the Algarve's famous golden sandstone cliffs are about 2.5km away, walkable if you’re up for stroll or the shortest of drives if you’re laden with family beach paraphernalia. There are also restaurants within a 20-minute walk, plus of course multiple golf courses and pro-standard tennis courts at Quinta do Lago and Vale do Lobo, both around 3km away.

Algarve holidays promise a wealth of different experiences and landscapes, whether you choose a private villa or a hotel as your base.

Portugal’s most southerly region boasts an iconic and instantly recognisable coastline of fine sandy beaches backed by ochre-yellow cliffs, sea stacks and rock archways that stand testament to the power of nature. Inland, there are rolling hills dotted with citrus and olive groves, plus crumbling castles, mountain villages and walking paths to explore. The Algarve is unique in enjoying an Atlantic coast with a Mediterranean climate, attracting not just holidaymakers but also a wide variety of birdlife that flocks to the Ria Formosa Natural Park.

And despite its long term popularity as a villa holiday destination, the Algarve has retained pockets of real character in its old towns and regional capital Faro, where you can still eat well relatively inexpensively. Portuguese cuisine is in our view one of the most underrated in Europe, so prepare to be deliciously surprised by fresh fish, hearty stews, sweet pastries and of course, world-renowned wines: saúde!

The villa is located in a prime location within driving distance to all amenities, it is secured and gated with a good sized swimming pool and tennis court.

Mr Joshi, via Affinity Villas April 2024

The villa is set in beautiful grounds, not overlooked, very private. The tennis court is excellent and got a lot of use. The pool is a good size for swimming, not a plunge pool. It's spacious, everything you need for a relaxing break, which we definitely had. Would recommend.

Mr Merison, via Affinity Villas June 2022

Lovely villa - close to beaches and towns. Large pool enough to swim lengths. Great welcome hamper which was appreciated with all the items you need to get going. We loved the peace and quiet!

Mr Khan, via Affinity Villas June 2022

Villa Damar, is a homely villa ideally situated for beach, restaurants/bars (30 min walk) and 5 minute drive to supermarket. We had a hire car but only needed it once.

Mr Game, via Affinity Villas May 2022

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the pool was magnificent and the cost of heating it in early April was money well spent. Beautiful grounds, a tennis court. Inside the villa was spacious, the kitchen was well equipped.

Mrs Tutton, via Affinity Villas April 2022

Lovely villa, pool big, tennis court good. Settled in a conservation area, just off the main road, you need a car to get to shops.

Mr Englefield, via Affinity Villas October 2021

Outstanding villa with large pool and tennis courts, very spacious and well laid out, in perfect location for ease of access to beach and Quinta do Lago.

Mr McGrath, via Affinity Villas July 2021

Villa Damar is set on a large totally secluded plot, with a private pool and tennis court. The gardens are beautiful. If you’re looking for peace and relaxation this is the villa for you. Inside the rooms are all spacious and light. The kitchen is well equipped, with good appliances and plenty of cutlery and plates etc. The outdoor seating area has a charcoal bbq and seating for 6. We spent all our time outside!
