A View So Blue

This home near Caniço is in a quiet part of the island, yet only a five-minute drive from all the shops and restaurants you could need. Set over three floors to make the most of the sea views to the rear, it's a smart, modern home with plenty of space for a group of up to six. The living area is bright and minimalist, with a comfy sofa and a few fun furnishings that younger guests might enjoy, while the bedrooms are cool and white, with stylish touches and comfy beds. The master gets a private balcony with fabulous views, and even the spacious dining room, set just off the kitchen, has its own balcony where you can sit with your cup of coffee each morning before the rest of the gang gets up. But the main attraction here is the large sun terrace just off the lounge. With a built-in barbecue, dining table and sun loungers, you could easily spend all day out here.
