Leaf Mountain: Private 3 Bed Villa with Salt Pool

The property is encased within walled boundaries and is surrounded by a salt swimming pool, orchard, and delightful tropical gardens. The salt pool provides a refreshing alternative to chlorine, while the orchard is full of the fruits of life: orange, tangerine, mango, red grape, fig, carob, and olive. The landscaped gardens are of tropical nature and provide a pleasant backdrop while walking around.
The light and bright bedrooms take advantage of the great views of the locality and provide sumptuous accommodation as they have been tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard, two of which have ensuite bathroom facilities. One of the bedrooms has twin beds and the other bedrooms have a King Size and Queen Bed. The ground-floor bedrooms have sliding glass doors that lead directly out onto the outdoor terrace and swimming pool.
The fully equipped fitted kitchen and oak-style dining table with high-backed leather chairs provide comfortable seating for home-cooked evenings. Large sliding doors connect the lounge and kitchen for an open-plan contemporary feel.
Stylish furniture complements the neutral shades of the decor and is evidenced in the lounge which has a pine drinks cabinet from where we operate an honesty bar, a large family leather sofa, several artifacts, flat screen TV, DVD, and Broadband. The wood-burning stove offers the opportunity for warm fires on the odd winter evening. The views are simply stunning as the terrain and swimming pool have been brought into the living space.

Wonderful views!
Absolutely loved our stay here. Villa very well equipped with excellent bathrooms and entertainment facilities. Sao Brás is quiet and pretty with other lovely places nearby to visit making it a great base for exploring. Peaceful, private and just what we needed with the most beautiful views both day and night. Loved watching the sun go down on the patio with a drink. Looking forward to returning which says it all. Super efficient hosts with easy check in and comprehensive instructions. All in all a lovely stay. Thank you!

Relaxing Stay
Just returned home from 12 days at Leaf Mountain, where we stayed for the first time. We have been holidaying in the Sao Bras region for 20 years and have good knowledge of various villas within this area. I can assure you in all the time spent in the Algarve, we have never slept as well as on this trip. This was down to a few things. Firstly the high quality of beds, which are so comfortable it was easy to drop off, the spacious lay out of all bedrooms, the quality of the air conditioning and the remote setting of the Villa. The pool area is lovely, spacious and private and not overlooked at all, and with electric gates is very secure. The whole villa layout is very spacious and maintained well. We would highly recommend this villa to friends and acquaintances, and are already planning our next visit.

Total relaxation
A lovely villa on the outskirts of town. Lovely views over the valley. Nice large bedrooms, comfy lounge, modern bathrooms with great showers. The private pool is not overlooked and the terrace with table is great for outdoor dining. This was our 2nd visit and we have booked for next year too.

Scenic, spotless and secure
Our second visit to this villa with 3 beautiful bathrooms, mountain views to the south and security behind automatic gates. Very private pool surrounded by interesting and well maintained gardens. Almost walking distance to the supermarket ( but a car will be required for the numerous restaurants in Sao Bras). Easy drive to Loule, Estoi, Faro and the coast without using the Autoroute. Paulo never seen, but very helpful on the phone.

Wonderful family holiday get away
We stayed 9 nights in April and found Leaf Mountain to be a very enjoyable location for a relaxing family holiday in a private and pleasant rural setting. Floyd and Paulo both responded promptly to queries and helped make our stay very enjoyable. We look forward to possibly returning for another holiday at some point in the future.

Here again in Sao Bras
Very nice property, clean and tidy. Had a few problems which Paulo resolved quickly and efficiently . Just a few niggles… As a family of 5 the patio table was too small and only had 4 chairs . Had to keep bringing a chair out of the kitchen at meal times.. Also no shade around the pool. We did contact the host to be told the awning was supplied as shade . We did feel this wasn’t sufficient. There were parasols but the bases were not compatible. Anne

Comfortable villa with stunning views
This was our first visit to Leaf Mountain, it will not be the last. Supremely comfortable villa, great pool with fantastic views. Paulo the agent was very helpful and responded instantly to any query. Overall we had a great holiday and would not hesitate to recommend this villa to anyone looking for a reasonably secluded holiday home but with access to local facilities.

Wonderful relaxing villa with stunning scenery
We had a lovely stay in Leaf Mountain villa which had everything we needed, a fantastic pool and wonderful scenery. The location was excellent for a short drive into Loule for the Saturday market, and a short ferry trip from Olhao to the Ilha da Armona. Sao Bras itself has lots of restaurants, cafes and supermarkets to choose from. Floyd and Paulo were always quick to help with any questions. Overall a wonderful experience at Leaf Mountain.

Best part was the view
Outdoors disappointing garden and drive desperately needs weeding and tidying up. Outdoor furniture very basic and uncomfortable, only one area of shade available around pool. Shame as most of holiday is spent outside.

A peaceful & relaxing retreat
We had a lovely relaxing holiday at Leaf Mountain. We loved the spaciousness, the fabulous bathrooms with fluffy towels, & the villa is very well situated for Sao Bras de Alportel with it’s many excellent restaurants most of which we managed to visit during the 10 days we were there.
