Family Stay in lovely Villa

Nice property in mature grounds, good pool and space for 8 of us that stayed there. We stayed for 2 weeks with local touring around. Pool was very nice and essential in the August heat. Pool grounds are very good, lovely shade trees and mature plants make it a lovely place to hang out. Location is around 25 mins walk to Luz

Great property for a relaxing vacation with our multi-generation family. The pool, gardens and multiple decks are perfect for enjoying the beautiful ocean views. Kitchen is well equipped and host was very quick to address an unexpected issue. The guest information book is very thorough and provided many suggestions for dining, etc. Wish our stay was longer!

What an amazing location, stunning view. Sue was such a pleasure to work with. The house is a beautiful home with Portuguese charm, just what we were looking for. The beach and town are a 10 minute walk away. The town has supermarkets and lots of restaurants. Quiet, peaceful neighbourhood. We paid to have the pool heated, well worth it. We will definitely be back!!!

A perfect holiday

We have stayed in many villas in our time but this is by far our favourite. The villa is a perfect blend of traditional rustic with modern conveniences. The views from every window around the villa are breathtaking and the pool area is like a tropical paradise with absolute privacy. Sue, the owner was most accommodating, allowing us to change our dates at short notice and arranging a food parcel for our arrival which was perfect. We tried out all of her recommendations, from the helpful taxi firm to the supermarket delivery service and we experienced “the best burgers in the world “-twice! Thank you Sue for all your help and making our stay truly unforgettable. We will definitely be back again in the future.

Superb !!

Absolutely the perfect villa for us. My husband and me, my daughter and my son and girlfriend all stayed very comfortably downstairs in the three bedrooms. The upstairs bedroom I think needs a shutter as it has no windows which is needed when hot for ventilation. Maybe a shutter also on the kitchen door. The villa is perfectly set up with everything needed, cutlery, crockery, linen, towels, cleaning tabs etc. Everything has been thought about. The pool area and garden is gorgeous and the views stunning. Sue the owner was hugely helpful right from the start of the trip as to what car to hire to markets/restaurants and the villa book was very helpful. Such a lovely villa. We will rent again definitely. Thank you feeling very relaxed. xx

Stunning!

We loved living in this beautiful house during our vacation! The house was very comfortable and perfect for relaxing evenings and mornings out on the balcony with stunning views of the ocean. The location is perfect for both privacy as well as access to endless walking to and away from the town of Luz. We also took advantage of the pool everyday set in incredibly tasteful landscaping (we did pay extra for heating the pool which was worth it). We so enjoyed making our own meals and the kitchen was complete. Sue was very responsive throughout the whole process of renting the house. We would absolutely love to return to this setting!

Slice of heaven close to the charming village of Luz

The pictures don’t begin to do the property justice. We were five adults and our visit was in April. The house was amazing. We lit a fire most nights. Lingered by the heated pool sometimes and marveled over the magnificent gardens. While we ate out most nights in Luz and Lagos, there are some amazing tapas restaurants, with stunning views. The nights we cooked in we took fresh lemons and rosemary from the property to prepare our seafood. The view is of the shimmering Atlantic with the cliffs of Luz to the east making for beautiful photos. There are paths in the neighborhood that take you along the cliffs in both directions. There are three bedrooms and two baths on the ground level and another bedroom and half bath up. The kitchen had everything we needed, which for us was a corkscrew, to enjoy all the fabulous Portuguese wine. The management company was quick to respond when we had questions, and the property is completely fenced and gated. There are multiple entertainment areas, the balcony, by the pool, and a patio with dining seating and a grill. I can’t think of a thing that was lacking. There was high speed internet for those who could not disconnect. The house is decorated with some amazing antiques from Asia. Thank you to the owners for sharing a slice of their heavens with us. It made for an amazing vacation.

In a word, perfect.

Absolutely adored Casa Romanzeira. Very quiet part of Luz but still within walking distance, awesome views, many different spots to enjoy in the villa. Its difficult to pick highlights, but the pool area feels so much like you are in a mini-resort that it wins out. We were a family of 4 adults taking a room each. There was a day of rain where we stayed in the villa all day, but we didn't feel restricted at all. The owner was present for our check-in and was a delight in person, and had been a consistent and fantastic communicator throughout. We would stay again in a heartbeat. With any luck we will get to go back some day!

Amazing , Beautiful, Perfect Villa

Sue, the villa owner, was amazing and friendly to deal with. Directions to the Villa were spot on, with helpful tips along the way. The Villa has spectacular sea views, which we enjoyed from waking up in the morning, eating breakfast, lunch and BBQ in the evening. Pool is a good size and the area is lovely and secluded, with beautiful flowers and trees. Villa is very well equipped, clean and beautiful inside. Coastal walk near to the villa is fantastic and wish we had done more of this. Luz and Burgau both great nearby beaches with great restaurants. We are already planning to come back next year.

Paradise

Omg. This is a gorgeous property. The villa is outstanding. The view every morning was amazing. Drinking coffee or wine looking at the sea! It is like paradise. It can get windy but that's a welcome relief in the sun. The villa had everything you need. A sewing kit came in handy, books, games, condiments and throws for chilly nights looking at the sea (but remember your mosquito spray!) Everything you can think of was here.. Such a home from home! A taxi from Faro cost 90 Euros. We enjoyed quality family time at night with the entertainment in the villa. The pool was amazing. My boys 14,12,7 enjoyed the pool so much they never wanted to leave the villa not even to go to the slash park! It is a safe villa. There is plenty of space to play. We took pop up goals, football and a cricket set! There were lilos and balls already there for the children. The cleaner and her husband were lovely such genuine people. We rented a car from Luz cars. What a relaxing process as opposed to some other rental companies. They bought the car to us. £120 for 3 days. We visited Monchique but unfortunately the water had almost dried up, Lagos was lovely and much livelier than Luz. Its a great place to visit and shop in the market or watch the street entertainment at night. There is a gorgeous Indian restaurant in the back streets and a brilliant Forca shop in the centre for football kits, genuine and replica. We went to Sagres as well to see the sunset. What an amazing experience. We visited a lovely Italian restaurant there. We walked to Luz a few times and got a taxi home. We swam off the cliffs.. They were sharp so good flip-flops are needed! The walk took about 25mins into Luz. The spar there is great but got busy! This was such a relaxing holiday.. Gorgeous villa, gorgeous scenery. There is enough to do here. Absolutely loved this holiday.. One of the best and we are sad to leave. Thank you Sue xx

Good location, great view, villa could be better

Great location, 15-25 min walk to Luz where there are great restaurants, beach etc. Fabulous view from villa - a real “sea view”! However, the third bathroom is outside, doesn’t have a lock and is designed for use while at the pool - we actually wanted three proper bathrooms as we were staying with two other couples. My husband and I ended up using it and had to walk outside in the dark at night to use the facilities - there was an ants nest in there and with no lock we had to be careful when using it. There were also no nets on the bedroom patio doors, which meant that (as they are on the ground floor and everyone has to pass them) we either had to have the curtains permanently closed or risk flashing everyone!! Lights didn’t work, a shelf in the fridge was broken, as was the upstairs loo seat and one of the gate keys needed a new battery - all mentioned to property managers and despite two visits wasn’t fixed. The property was in 2 acres of secluded land, but over half of this is scrub land that is unusable - the photos have been cleverly shot to give the impression that the pool area (which is lovely) is different areas of the garden. It is a shame, as the property could be lovely, but for the price we paid, we have had much better in the Algarve. We will be back to Luz, but unfortunately won’t be staying here again.
