Vila Dinah

Vila Dinah
The inspiration for the architectural design of Vila Dinah was ‘love’. Love for life, love for Portugal. Love as only the Portuguese can express it. The round forms and the arrangement of the buildings surrounding the swimming pool are a striking example of this. The Portuguese architect Luis Paixão designed Vila Dinah in 1988, and the building was completed by local contractors under Dutch construction supervisors and foremen in 1990. The result of this unique collaboration was an exquisite ‘Casa’, well constructed and durable down to the very last detail. You will never find another like it!

If you look at the photos and plan of Vila Dinah, you will see that everything has been thought of. Vila Dinah radiates so much warmth that you immediately feel at home. If you enjoy entertaining guests, then its welcoming atmosphere will be just what you want. Everywhere you feel the perfect balance between liberating space and comfortable privacy. Nothing is exaggerated; everything is convenient, elegant, well planned.

The garden, swimming pool, the BBQ house and the technical room.
The kidney-shaped, hand-tiled swimming pool was built under the architect Fernando Luis da Silva Graça, and has a central position in the garden complex. And, in the evening, with the atmospheric lighting switched on in the garden and swimming pool, you know you have made the right choice.
The automatic irrigation system makes easy work of maintaining the garden, resulting in a leafy environment which continues to entrance every season.

The Barbecue House is typically Portuguese. The fact that it has hosted many barbecues in its time is not reflected in its impeccable state. Thanks to its solid construction and use of durable materials, the wheels of time have left no trace. It also has an extra toilet and washbasin and a large storage area which can be used for garden chairs, for example.

The technical room is in an unobtrusive location, and offers easy control of the installations.

The spacious living room with its fireplace and various cosy corners.

The swimming pool is a wonderful meeting place for young and old.
