The best place ever

The best place ever to stay for a fantastic time in Portugal, I really recommend it, great beach Foz do Arelho, nice restaurants in the area with fresh fish and great wine, the village is great for a night walk with lots of coffee places near the beach, and the price lets say every penny is very well spend.

Stay at Foz

Lovely holiday , great hosts, very responsive. House was clean. Beach and lagoon beautiful and good reasonably priced restaurants. Everything about 15 min walk ( steep hills on way home) Houses is spacious but could do with an update and outside living space could be better Thank you !

Thank you for your review. We continue to work on making our vila the best that it can be while also keeping it affordable for our guests. We do intend on making significant renovations to the vila after this current summer season. This will include upgrades to kitchen and kitchen appliances, upgrade to bathrooms, and adding terrace and additional outdoor furniture. We have also purchased the two adjoining properties and plan on incorporating the additional space by adding two/three additional structures and expansive garden areas for hosting larger parties and special events. Our goal is always to exceed our guest’s expectations. We will not stop until we do so.

Summer Holiday with large group

Very nice stay in a beautiful villa, with lots of space for larger groups. Very good and heated pool + Spa (jacuzzi). Family and friends in age from 6 to 50y like it very much. Location is also very good, beach, smaller supermarkets and very good restaurants can be reached by foot. Thanks for this nice Portugal holiday!

9 nights in Foz do Arelho

The house is very spacious and confortable. Very convenient for large groups. The pool is excellent and was very clean. The Homeaway location on the map shows the house to be very close to the beach. In reality the house is located in Rua dos Depositos that is about 500 meters further away from the map location. It is also a steep climb from the beach to the house (50 meters?). To push a baby stroller from the beach to the house was really a challenge! In addition, we couldn’t find any “hot tub” as advertised. The refrigerator was not working properly.

Response from VrboOwner on 19 February 2022
I appreciate the review, however, some of the comments are factually incorrect. First, Vila Dom Carlos is located on Rua Dom Carlos I and not Rua did Depositos with breathtaking panoramic views of both the Atlantic Ocean and Obidos Lagoon. On clear nights, one can see the the medieval village of Obidos illuminated at a distance. The beach is a 7-10 minute walk. We have 4 grown children but when they were small, we would all walk down to the beach, two in strollers. Most recently, our parents have stayed with us. They are in their late 70’s and early 80’s. All more than capable of walking down to the beach with no issue. There is no mention of a hot tub. We do have a jacuzzi tub in the master bathroom with jets. Great for a relaxing soak after biking, running, windsurfing, or a long walk. We have invested over 200,000 euros in renovations to include a new refrigerator and other kitchen appliances.

Stay from 14/08-23/08/2023, 12 people (four families)

We spent a very nice holiday time in this house. Very peaceful, safe and charming neighborhood. The house is very well equipped, everything as advertised. Very good contact with the owner. I highly recommend it for those who want a peaceful rest and also as a great starting point for sightseeing and a great place to regenerate after time spent on sightseeing or other active recreation (heated swimming pool, Jacuzzi with a view of the beautiful mountainous panorama of the area). There are many attractive places to visit nearby, e.g. Lisboa-approx. 1 hour driving, Fatima-ok. 1 hour by car, Obidos-about 20 minutes by car and many others. The town itself is also very charming and worth visiting. A beautiful large sandy beach by the Ocean in close proximity and numerous viewing terraces on the rocky coast by the Ocean. In general, it's all right!
