The hosts were extremely responsive to any question or need we had. They were truly the kindest hosts we’ve ever encountered in our travels. The location was set in the quiet countryside among orange groves and pomegranate trees which provided opportunity for long walks and friendly interaction with local residents. The house was well furnished and equipped with everything we needed with added blessings of a cooling plunge pool, a private courtyard and flower- filled surroundings.

Wow what a place. The property was beautiful inside and out. Spotlessly clean and catered for all our needs. Was great to have air conditioning in the bedroom and mosquito nets on all the windows so we could leave them all open without worryThe plunge pool and the sun deck were amazing.The area was really quiet and relaxing. The airport and lots of beaches were only 20 mins away. The hosts Wendy and Paul were really nice and welcoming and had lots of information for places to see and eat. Would highly recommend this property for a fantastic stay.

Very beautiful

This location is great, beautiful garden for peace and quiet. Several seating areas around the house. You don't have to leave, you have everything you need here. You do need a car, groceries, etc., but everything is within reach of 10 minutes to 30 minutes. Environment is beautiful. The owners are wonderful people Paul and Wendy. Help you with everything where necessary. They have a lot of respect for their guests. They really spoiled us. And happy that we were allowed to stay with them in their lovely house. And so nice that we met these people. We will definitely see each other again, lots of love Ron and Linda 😘 big hug also for Timmy and Titch

Ons verblijf was werkelijk fantastisch! Het huisje is tot in de puntjes verzorgd en voorzien van alles wat je nodig hebt: handdoeken, zeep, afwasmiddel, vaatdoekjes, een parasol en nog zoveel meer. Je voelt je er meteen thuis. Het bed slaapt heerlijk, de airco in de slaapkamer is een echte meerwaarde en ook de comfortabele zetel maakt het fijn om 's avonds gezellig tv te kijken. De wifi was af en toe wat minder sterk om onze Chromecast te gebruiken, maar dat was eigenlijk het enige kleine minpuntje. Het zwembad is absoluut geweldig! Heerlijk om op warme dagen even af te koelen en de comfortabele ligbedden maken het plaatje compleet. Maar wat dit verblijf écht onvergetelijk maakt, is de gastvrouw. Zonder twijfel de vriendelijkste en meest gastvrije persoon die we ooit hebben ontmoet. Ze doet er alles aan om je verblijf zo comfortabel en aangenaam mogelijk te maken. Niets is te veel gevraagd en je voelt je oprecht welkom vanaf het eerste moment. Twijfel niet langer en boek dit verblijf. Wij zouden zonder enige aarzeling terugkomen!

Nature and peace in rendez-vous

Notre famille de deux adultes et deux enfants de 11 et 12 ans a vraiment apprécié son séjour chez Paul et Wendy. L’accueil était parfait, tant de la part des hôtes que le lieu, et la propreté de la location. Paul et Wendy ont tout fait pour adapter le logement à la composition de notre famille afin que chacun y trouve son confort. La location dispose de tout le nécessaire (terrasses, cuisine, barbecue et piscine)le tout dans un état irréprochable afin de passer un moment de calme et de serenite proche de la nature

Séjours du 9 au 23 juillet 2024

Nous avons passé un excellent sejour pour notre première fois en algarve. Nos hôtes, wendy et paul, nous ont très bien accueillis malgré la barrière de la langue. Maison de vacance agréable à vivre, retirée de la cohue des bords de plages. La piscine était tres agréable en fin de journée.
