About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
A Ruina Velha - sleeps up to 2
This quaint property is in the most perfect location and has uninterrupted views of the surrounding hills and valleys. A truly tranquil spot yet just a few minutes drive away from fantastic sandy beaches, restaurants, shops and a lagoon surrounded by sand dunes.
The property is very well furnished and equipped with everything we hope you would need to enjoy the perfect holiday.
The bedroom has a King bed which can be separated to twin beds if preferred (you will be asked to choose on the booking page).
We have fibre internet at A Ruina Velha so we would expect you to have good internet speeds but this is of course subject to the service provider.
There is a terrace to the front where you can dine whilst enjoying the sound of cow bells or relax on the hidden private roof terrace which is a suntrap throughout the year.
