Casa Helandria is set in over 1000 square metres of garden, which has been designed in the Portuguese style. There are pine trees, orange, lemon and fig trees, which guests can pick during the season. There are also oleanders, bougainvillea and mimosa in the garden. In one corner there is a large rockery with a variety of succulents.

At the back of the villa, facing south, is a large patio area surrounding a 10 x 5 metre swimming pool. The tiled pool is about 90 cm deep at the shallow end and 1.80 m at the deep end. During the season it is cleaned regularly and is filtered via a recirculating pump.

Both the pool and patio receive direct sun for most of the day, except during the winter period. There are 6 sun loungers with cushions as well as a sunshade. For those guests who prefer shade there is a pergola surrounding a tiled table. This makes an ideal spot to enjoy lunch under the shady canopy.

Built into the patio wall is a large BBQ suitable for cooking for at least 6 people. Outside lighting enables guests to enjoy al fresco cooking and dining on the many warm balmy evenings that occur on the Algarve.
