Jan 9, 2019 #### Amazing Home, Fabulous Location, Great Owner/Property Manager We stayed for almost 2 weeks in December over the holidays. The home was perfect for extended family of 7 adults - everyone had ample room and private baths. The common spaces fit all of us easily as we prepared fantastic meals and enjoyed great wines. Gourmet kitchen had everything we needed. We enjoyed sunsets on the balcony, the pool (we paid to heat it) was a great hit, and walks to the beach (pretty much deserted). We also went to Seville for 2 days (2 hour drive), and did plenty of hiking in Monchique and Foia (mountians) and Lagos (beach). One of our best vacations ever. Owner David was responsive and Property Manager Alistair gave us great tips. ##### lynne w. Stayed 11 nights in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David W.

There were a couple of observations that the sun loungers had seen better days and the towels were a little threadbare .Also no mats in the bathrooms which meant using the one hand towel provided. Other than that it was all pretty perfect . None of these things would stop me going again but could just improve the overall experience. ##### Nicole B.

Everything was absolutely spotless, comfortable beds and lovely pool temperature. The villa is well equipped with everything you might need, plenty of plates, glasses, cutlery etc as well as pots and pans, dishes and even tupperware. David was so friendly and helpful and the information pack we received was much appreciated. The villa is in a lovely quiet location yet easily reached and we would not hesitate to recommend! Thank you very much ##### Mark A. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nick S. Aug 18, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful!

La vue est superbe, l'environnement est calme et la maison proche de la mer. Il y a de très belles plages dans les alentours. Il y a des commerces à quelques minutes en voiture. David, le gérant, a répondu très rapidement et précisément à mes demandes par email. Il y avait également un contact très sympathique sur place. Je recommande donc cette maison. ##### nicolas g.
