    About this property

    Entire place

    You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

    Spacious holiday home in the hills of the Algarve with a fantastic view

    Holiday fun for up to 6 non-smokers. The kitchen is so big that you can also cook together. Who likes to grill, no problem, there is a large outdoor grill. The property is approximately 2600 square meters and fenced. It is mostly natural and appears according to the season. So a lot of space on which not only children can let off steam. If you would like something sporty, swim in the pool even at night in the moonlight, or do some with the trim bike
     Turn "laps".

    A wonderful stay
    A well layed out, generous sized villa with an extremely nice balcony with views across to the coast which was perfect for evening drinks. Inside, the villa was modern and clean with all the electrical appliances you need for a comfortable home from home stay. The pool was a lovely size with 2 shallow ends making pool games, like volleyball possible. Local supermarkets are around 10minutes drive and the coast/ airport 20minutes away which makes the villa a perfect location for exploring the Algarve. It is also extremely secluded, which means you can have a really peaceful and relaxing stay in the villa swimming around in the pool or sunbathing on the loungers. Marianne was very helpful and quick to respond to our enquiries.

    A beautiful holiday villa.
    Rural, peaceful location. Top quality villa, with great facilities, excellent outdoor space, always with shade if required. Comfortable beds and high quality furniture throughout. All rooms are spacious, light and well equipped. We cannot fault this villa in any way. We would certainly like to book again, and plan to do so in the near future. A really beautiful holiday home.

    Gorgeous near Gorjoes
    Although a little outside Gorjoes the villa overlooks the valley and to the sea beyond. It sits near the end of a narrow winding road in the country. It is quite isolated and a car is essential. With various dining places the Villa is beautifully designed to enjoy the ever changing direction of the sun. The rooms are spacious and airy and the pool is delightful. A very relaxing situation.

    Gorgeous villa in stunning surroundings
    We loved the location and the property was great for our needs. We did have some problems accessing the property as one of our party arrived first and the owner gave the wrong code for the key. The caretaker didn’t answer when called and the poor girl was left at the gate for two hours. None of the phone numbers for the owner worked either. Once in, however, it was a fantastic stay. The view of the sunset from the balcony in the evenings was breath-taking. The house is pretty well-equipped but it could do with some more comfortable interior seating and the TV is titchy. Pool is lovely but very cold in October. Perhaps a cover would keep the heat in? We own a holiday rental in UK so these comments are meant as constructive not criticism!

    Huge! Very clean and beautiful, very up to date with health and safety measures including covid. Loved the pool and the gardens. My only gripe would be no english channels on TV.

    Beautiful house in the hills
    We loved our time here in this spacious home in the hills. We especially enjoyed the pool, outdoor eating area and the well-equipped kitchen. The only improvement we would suggest is to put a/c in all the bedrooms. The operating switches for the hob were also difficult to operate. Apart from that, everything was great.

    Spacious, well equipped, private, perfectly comfortable
    We loved this villa. We stayed for over 2 weeks with our teenager and tweenager and it was perfect. Lots of space. We are a family that plays complex board games and there were so many reception rooms that we could set up several games which ran over days while still having places to relax, read and eat. The pool was beautiful. We brought inflatable pool toys and it was great not to have to think about getting in anyone else's way. The kitchen was well equipped enough to be able to cook comfortably. The owner sent us great directions to find the villa. It is almost at the end of a very small lane, so quite private. But only a 15 minute drive to a decent supermarket. 25-30 minutes drive into Olhao and 45 minutes to Tavira. Everything was clean and tidy, the air conditioning and all other equipment worked well. Absolutely fabulous.
