The pool was perfect despite a bit of a chill. The house was well equipped and the host very helpful when needed. It was great to have so many restaurants so close to the house and also a little supermarket. Could not get any programmes up on the television although we didnt really need the TV. Would be handy to have a few written instructions, but it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay for us all.

Amazing Villa, Great location !

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa do Farol. We really appreciated being welcomed by the owners by phone (not only by email) and communication was great. They even suggested us various activities and restaurants. The Casa offers a lot of privacy and is at walking distance from services such restaurants and a mercado. We highly recommand.

Great spot to visit the beaches and restaurants

Nice villa with easy access to everything. Short drive to Carvoeiro if you need a little more pace. A few fantastic beaches are within range. We visited in Oct. and there were a lot of flies in and around the home but the home and pool were in great shape. The host is accessible and responds quickly. A very pleasant stay.

Great Stay

We had a great 10 week stay at Casa do Farol, Nuno and Joao were very good hosts and Dina and husband (next door house carer's) were brilliant. I think this maybe my second review on VRBO regarding CdoF so forgive me but VRBO seems to have a demand for review in lots of their diffenrent language sites.

Wonderful villa

The property was everything and more. A beautiful villa that was maintained in excellent condition. Comfortable beds, close to several restaurants. the host touched base on several occasions to ensure everything was to our liking. They also provided a small welcome basket including a bottle of wine. We would definitely stay here again.

Loved Casa de Farol, the Algarve, the pool, and the beaches!

Our two families absolutely loved staying at Joao's property. Super close to a small market which provided fresh daily bread, a quick drive to bigger shopping markets, great access to several beaches (Carvalho being the favorite). The place was very clean upon arrival and check-in was easy. Spacious washrooms, laundry machine worked well, comforable beds, quiet house and area, shutters to sleep in, what more can you ask for on holiday??? Would definitely return. Thank you!!!

Perfect family villa

We travelled to visit family that lives up the road from the villa so it was perfect location for us. Beach was in walking distance as was our favourite restaurant pashmina. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Unexpected welcome package on arrival. - thoroughly enjoyed thank you! Housekeeper visited during our stay. Pool was also cleaned during our stay which was nice. Excellent communication from host who was contactable at any time during our stay. Would recommend getting a hire car to go to the supermarket (Auchan was our supermarket of choice) rather than the convenience store in rocha brava as they are quite expensive. Pool was perfect for adults and kids. Beautiful view of lighthouse from the villa. Pool and bath towels were provided. Extra bedding and blankets were available. Villa was very homely we would definitely book again when we next visit.

Delightful stay in a spacious and comfortable villa

We had a lovely week at Casa do Farol during June. The villa itself was very comfortable for our party of five, and the pool - while not huge - was particularly welcome during the very hot weather. The villa was clean and generally well-equipped and furnished, although some of the decor could do with a refresh before too long. Plenty of towels were provided (thank you!), and the beds were very comfortable. The area around the villa was quiet and not as "touristy" as some parts of the Algarve we visited during our stay. There is a nearby lighthouse which does shine its light at night, and this does illuminate the rooms at the front of the house (we didn't find it a problem though). There are a number of local restaurants in easy walking distance. The only downside here was a general shortage of vegetarian choices (except for the Indian restaurant, which was fine). But expect no problems if you eat meat and fish. Top tip: according to the map, Praia do Carvalho is the nearest beach, but it's accessed by a flight of quite steep steps. Praia do Vale de Centeanes is bigger, better equipped, easier to access and only slightly further.

Toute la famille a vraiment aimé les vacances passées dans la maison de Joao et Nuno. La Casa Do Farol est très bien située, proche de l'océan, dans un environnement calme. Il y a à proximité toutes les commodités: restaurants, supermarchés, boutiques, "take away", ainsi que de belles promenades. Le jardin est très joli et bien entretenu, de même que la piscine et la terrasse. Nous avons très souvent pris nos repas dehors sous l'auvent. A notre arrivée, nous avons trouvé un panier de bienvenue, merci à nos hôtes! Merci aussi pour la petite rampe qu'ils ont installée entre la terrasse et la piscine, car je suis une PMR et c'était vraiment bien pour mon mari et mes enfants qui me déplacent dans mon fauteuil roulant.La maison est d''une propreté impeccable, très bien équipée et joliment meublée et décorée. Le salon est très agréable et confortable. Les chambres sont spacieuses, la literie est de très bonne qualité, les rangements, nombreux. Les salles de bain sont nombreuses, bien conçues et hyper propres. Nous sommes allés plusieurs fois à Carvoeiro, à 5 mn de la maison, c'est un petit port très joli; Nous avons aussi exploré 2 fois Portimao, qui est une belle ville portuaire, Lagoa et ses falaises et rochers rouges et dorés, plantés dans l'eau turquoise.En conclusion, la Casa Do Farol mérite bien la note de 10/10!Merci encore et des pensées amicales pour nos hôtes.Famille Ferreira Lopès

Der Aufenthalt im Casa do Farol war wunderbar! Das Haus entsprach genau der Beschreibung und bietet genügend Platz innen und außen. Die Ausstattung umfasst alles, was man braucht, auch das Kochen für zehn Personen ist problemlos möglich. Die Lage ist ruhig, und in fußläufiger Entfernung gibt es Restaurants, einen kleinen Supermarkt und ein Café. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war sehr nett, aufkommende Fragen wurden schnell und sehr freundlich beantwortet.Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Mein Mann ist Portugiese und wir haben auch an der Algarve bereits viele Orte bereist! Carvoeiro ist bei den Briten sehr beliebt. Wir haben wunderschöne Wanderungen an der Küste entlang unternommen.das Haus ist bestens ausgestattet.
