Old, unique shepherd's farm, renovated into a minimalist design villa by the renowned architects of Atelier Rua. On a private ground of more than 1 Hectare, surrounded by orange trees, with beautiful views to the sea. The most beautiful beaches of Eastern Algarve can be reached in just 15 minutes via a low-traffic country lane. By reinventing the style and details of typical architecture from the Algarve, past, present and future are connected. The house is the perfect mix of abundant authenticity and selected design pieces.

The owners have been coming to Eastern Algarve for over 20 years and are respectively a Portuguese wine importer and a creative director, resulting in a combination of a very hospitable, stylish house, equipped with eg a fully stocked wine cabinet (honesty bar) but also your own personalized magazine where you will find the best beaches, local restaurants and other hidden gems ...

Casa Um is also part of a new hospitality concept, so that you can fully enjoy the privacy of your own holiday home, but you can rely on the pampering of a boutique hotel. For example, upon arrival at the airport you will be received by Joana, the "flying" receptionist. She will be available all week and will be your point of contact to organize everything your heart desires (massages, cook at home, bookings at golf courts, etc.). It is also she who discreetly delivers fresh bread every morning, along with a surprise ...

The old farmhouse consists of a brand new kitchen, with Miele and Bosch appliances, including the stocked wine fridge. The original living room has been completely renovated, while maintaining the typical original thatched roof. The former barn, adjoining the living room, has been transformed into a cozy patio, around the old bread oven, where it is very intimate and cozy to eat in the evening, but where you can fully enjoy the first rays of sunshine even in the winter. . The stables became a beautiful dining room, with not only the beautiful views as an eye catcher, but also the glass wine cellar. It is filled with the most unique wines in the world, and they can be removed by the receptionist upon simple request.

The bedrooms are decorated in the style of the local, cubist architecture. Each bedroom not only has its own modern, luxurious bathroom, but also its own patio with a hammock. This ensures that you can withdraw completely if you are there for example with a group of friends or large family.

Outside you will find, next to the cozy indoor patio, several terraces, an old, working bread oven (now also a perfect pizza oven), and a beautiful stylish swimming pool, from which you have a beautiful view.

Availabilty & Prices

Highlights

Discover the wine cellar

A glass-fronted wine cellar and stocked wine fridge reflect the owners’ passion, featuring Portuguese treasures and rare vintages curated by a local importer.

Mario, the heart of the Addresses

Guests write with warmth about Mario. His calm presence, kindness, and quiet attention make every stay feel personal and deeply cared for.

Under an infinite sky

The Algarvian hills roll gently toward the sea, dotted with orange trees and the scent of salt in the air. At night, the landscape falls silent, and through your window, the stars seem close enough to touch.

LAYOUT

Casa Um is spread over two floors.

First floor

  • here is the original, renovated shepherd's farm.
  • the stylish modern kitchen is equipped with the most modern appliances: a fridge, induction hob, dishwasher and designer extractor hood from Miele and Bosch. The worktop and sink is in local natural stone. And as an extra you will find here our wine fridge, filled with the best Portuguese wines, at perfectly adjusted temperature. (honesty bar system: what you drink during the week is charged at the end of the stay)
  • from the kitchen you have access to the living room, where beautiful designer sofas and lounge chairs invite you to relax around the fireplace. The large windows, overlooking the inner patio and the garden, greatly enhance the inside-outside effect.
  • Adjacent to the living room you have the indoor patio. Here you will find the barbecue, which is integrated in the original shepherd's oven.
  • In the outdoor patio we have designer garden furniture and also a water feature which provides a refreshing holiday feeling throughout the day.
  • From the living room and the inner patio, you enter the dining room. Here you can dine very stylishly, with a view of the most beautiful wine selection in our enclosed glass wine room. Through the corridor you also enter the guest toilet.

Ground floor

  • You enter the sleeping quarters via a staircase in the dining room.
  • The 4 serene bedrooms each have their en-suite bathroom, with washbasins and walk-in showers, made from local natural stone. Because sleep is enormously important, all beds are from the Portuguese brand Molaflex, which you will only find in the most exclusive hotels in Portugal.
  • Through large windows in every bedroom and bathroom you enter a private patio, belonging to each room. This patio brings the necessary peace and shade, making a siesta in the hammock a piece of cake.

Outside

  • on different terraces you will find dining tables and chairs so that you can choose where you want to have breakfast, lunch or dinner that day in the shade or atmosphere of the moment
  • the original bread oven of the shepherd, the owners renovated into a working bread or pizza oven
