Tilias - Villa with private heatable pool, BBQ, Air/Con, Private Tennis Court, Snooker, Wi-Fi
Completely renovated to an impressive standard in early 2020, Casa das Tilias is an exceptional villa beautifully located in a tranquil residential area on the outskirts of the popular Galé resort. With elegant design and modern furnishings within perfectly maintained gardens, it is home to a fabulous private swimming pool of 11m by 4m and an extensive poolside terrace. Completing this is a full-sized private tennis court and enclosed, so that even complete beginners can wield a racket to their liking. There is also an outdoor snooker table.
Each room individually decorated with bold and large headboards. All bedrooms are upstairs and have their own balcony overlooking the pool and gardens, with glass balustrades to make the most of the views over the wonderfully maintained garden, the traditional clay roof tiles of Galé down to the sparkling sea beyond. Two of the bedrooms have private shower bathrooms, the master bedroom has a private bathroom with an adjacent shower room and a fifth on the lower floor; each one is impeccably presented, with sophisticated modern tiles and quality fixtures and finishes.
On the ground floor there is a spacious open-plan living room and dining room with two sets of sliding glass doors leading to the exterior terrace, swimming pool and garden. The owner of this house has furnished the property thoughtfully and lovingly to the highest standards. A luxurious sofa offers a comfortable refuge from the midday sun where you can watch a film. In the adjacent dining area, seated in beautifully upholstered chairs around an impressive glass table. You will also find a Bluetooth speaker.
The fully equipped kitchen, with its high-gloss cabinets and state-of-the-art gadgets and appliances, is yours to tinker with as you please, although it's a safe bet that the magnificent outdoor kitchen area beside the house will tempt even the most meticulous chef to venture outside. Here, an impressive stone barbecue with multiple shelves for your spices and garnishes invites you to keep everything deliciously simple and perhaps grill some locally caught sardines – just sprinkle with sea salt and a squeeze of lemon and wash down with a chilled green wine.
When you crave a bit of shade, feel truly Zen as you head to the hidden shaded gazebo.
With your own tennis court to use whenever you wish, a wonderfully refreshing swimming pool to cool off and a snooker table to organise family tournaments, it's easy to see how the days fly by without leaving the villa grounds. However, there are numerous shops, bars and restaurants within a few minutes' walk and the delightful 5 km stretch of Galé beach, with its soft golden sand, turquoise waters, gentle waves and attractive rock formations, just minutes' drive away. You will also find a variety of beach bars and restaurants here, as well as sun loungers, parasols and water sports.
Large swimming pool (Heated on request) and sun terraces with plenty of places to relax in comfortable outdoor furniture spread across the grounds.
Private tennis court, exclusively for guest use within well-maintained gardens.
Centrally controlled Bluetooth music system via mobile application.
Excellent location within a short walking distance to amenities.
A short drive away from the beautiful Galé beach.

The villa was very modern, clean and as expected. The only issue I had was that it was missing a bedroom from the description. The ground floor "bedroom" is a pantry and could not fit any sort of bed.

First Portugal Holiday
The villa was everything as described and more and probably the best we've stayed in for our first time in Portugal. The villa is furnished to a high standard and has everything you need for a relaxing holiday .Several beaches are located within 5 mins drive along with supermarkets and a handful of restaurants.
