HISTORY

The house was built in an elegant area, full of pretty homes with gardens and a great feeling of tranquillity, discovered many years ago by foreigners and locals who came to build their houses here, all of different styles, yet with a degree of similarity and beautifully presented.
Villa Echium is one of such houses. It was built around forty years ago and designed by the famous architect van Velden.
Restored by the present owner, it was designed with a view to being divided into two separate apartments.

WHAT'S INSIDE

The upper apartment, at street level, with two bedrooms suitable for four persons, has two bathrooms, a sitting room, a dining room, a balcony and a modern, well-equipped kitchen. It is decorated in a rather classical style, with Portuguese and Nordic elements, and has a wide terrace with a view over the garden and the sea.
This apartment is suitable for physically challenged persons with decreased mobility.

A passageway links the terrace to the lower floor at the level of the large garden.

The second apartment has one bedroom, a dressing room with space for an extra bed, a bathroom, sitting room and modern kitchen which doubles as a dining room. It is suitable for three persons and is decorated in a contemporary style.
It benefits from direct access to the garden from the living room and the bedroom.

GREEN SPACE

Outside the house there is a tropical garden with sun beds for sunbathing and other garden furniture. This area also contains a nice lake with aquatic plants, such as water-lilies, and small animals like fish, frogs and turtles. With the lake it is probably a good idea to keep an eye on small children...

FACILITIES

You will find everything you need to have a barbecue in the garden or on the terrace, and there is a parking space available for your car next to the entrance. The rooms are serviced every day, except on Sundays, by a member of our staff, unless customers specify that they don’t wish to avail of this service. We hope you enjoy your stay.
