Stars View by Portugal Active
Summary:
Step into the world of Stars View by Portugal Active — a contemporary architectural villa where design meets nature.
With a private pool, expansive gardens, refined interiors and stunning views, this is the perfect retreat to unwind in style in the lush heart of Minho.
The Space:
Stars View by Portugal Active is an architectural haven where contemporary design blends seamlessly with the tranquillity of the Minho countryside.
This villa was designed to offer a truly exclusive experience, with spacious areas, designer décor, and a unique connection to the surrounding nature.
The interiors are defined by minimalist lines, premium materials and a soft, neutral palette that invites relaxation.
The main living area is flooded with natural light through expansive glass panels, harmoniously connecting the living room, dining area, and open-plan kitchen.
The built-in fireplace, wooden accents, and curated design elements create an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and inviting.
The kitchen is fully equipped with the essentials for both casual meals and more elaborate dining, featuring a central island that encourages cooking and socialising.
The solid wood dining table, paired with modern designer chairs, sets the stage for long, memorable meals with family and friends.
All bedrooms are designed for maximum comfort, with air conditioning, built-in wardrobes, and direct access to private balconies overlooking the garden.
The connection between indoors and outdoors is ever-present, offering a constant sense of peace and space.
Outside, the property stretches across a generous lawned garden, where nature is part of the experience.
The private pool, complete with underwater lighting, is perfect for sunset swims or lounging by day on the surrounding sunbeds.
For the more active guests, there is a trampoline, a basketball hoop, and plenty of space to run, play or relax under the shade of the trees.
The house also includes a practical laundry area, equipped with a washing machine, iron, ironing board and drying rack — ideal for longer stays.
Stars View is more than just a house — it’s a carefully curated retreat that blends the comfort of a boutique hotel with the warmth and privacy of a countryside home.
Guest Access:
Guests have exclusive access to the entire property. Portugal Active’s concierge service is available 24/7 to meet any needs — from arranging local excursions to booking a private chef. To ensure availability, we kindly ask that all services be requested at least 72 hours in advance.
Important Note:
During high season (May to October), the pool is regularly maintained to ensure an impeccable experience. During low season (November to April), the pool may be closed — please confirm with our team in advance.

Stars View by Portugal Active is located in São Gens, a peaceful and scenic area of Fafe, surrounded by greenery and immersed in the calm rhythms of rural life.
