Casa Domingos | Villa in Loulé

In the hilly hinterland of the Algarve, amidst hundreds of olives, almond and cork trees, Casa Domingos appears immaculately in white. Once an ancient ruin, it is today a gorgeous design villa created by Pedro Domingos, the same architect as its sister house Casa Sabados. Both houses are nestled in a large nature reserve at the end of a dirt road; in absolute tranquillity without cars passing by.
The luxurious and comfortable villa is seamlessly integrated into its natural environment using large windows and doors. The white walls and concrete floors are modern and minimalist and create a neutral décor, while wood and hand-woven textiles add warmth. The 4 bedrooms are sophisticated in design and can accommodate up to 6 people, making the villa the perfect accommodation for a group of friends or families.
The kitchen has a large cooking island, while the outdoor courtyard is strategically positioned for an al-fresco family dinner. On the top floor, the living room connects to a huge roof terrace with stunning views of the surrounding nature. With various terraces and patios outside, you can find your preferred relaxing or dining spot at any time of the day! Lounging at the poolside or enjoying the sunset, the possibilities are endless.
Quietly situated, near the picturesque village of Santa Bárbara de Nexe, fabulous sandy beaches and the nature reserve Ria Formosa, Casa Domingos is the ideal house to enjoy luxury, tranquillity and beautiful scenery.
Casa Domingos is a splendid design house situated on a 2500 m2 plot surrounded by countless olive and cork trees and wildflowers. Designed by a renowned architect in a sleek design, the villa is modern yet inviting.
The villa uses local handmade materials; the ceramics and textiles are from Casa Cubista, wood comes from northern Portugal, and the sinks, kitchen top, and swimming pool are made of local natural stone. Besides, environmentally friendly applications were applied, such as the use of solar energy to heat the water.
