About the host
Hosted by madeleine taylor
Hi, thank you for looking at our house. My name is Madeleine Taylor and I live with my husband of 42 years, John. We have traveled all over Europe but fell in love with Portugal 22 years ago and have owned a property there for the past 21 years. Casa Meia is our second house in Praia da Luz. We bought the first house with another couple who decided they wanted to sell after 5 years. We loved Luz so decided to buy another house here. Casa Meia was perfect for us being so close to the beach and restaurants. The airport is only 50 mins and with no time difference from the UK it is a stress free destination. The picture above is my husbands 65th birthday party held on the roof terrace in April. ( I am the blonde curly one!)
Why they chose this property
Loved the close proximity to the beautiful beach and easy access to so many other areas. As we had sold the previous house and split the proceeds we decided to call the house 'half a house' in Portuguese. The beach in Lagos is Maia Praia which means half a beach so we called the house Casa Maia. Our maid fell about laughing so we explained why we had so named the house. She explained that 'Maia' also means sock so she couldn't understand why we had called our house sock house. The spelling has changed to Meia which is now correct. The Portuguese people are so friendly and if you can venture out of Luz and find one of the local restaurants or grill houses you can find wonderful lively company and very cheap meals.
What makes this property unique
Casa Meia has a superb roof terrace with a large BBQ. It is great watching the sunset and listen to the sea whilst relaxing and watching John cooking at the BBQ (can't understand, he never cooks at home!) might be sometime to do with the large G&T. A great place to unwind after such busy days! Our guests now have use of the all the pools, the pool bar and restaurant at the lovely Luz Bay Hotel which is less than 100 metres from the house.
