Fun for the kids (and adults too)

Sun and fun worshippers Downpatrick
Review Submitted: November 4, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Our children enjoy Cruz Alta and after two visits are already looking forward to our return next year. They have great fun spotting the "wildlife" in the villa gardens and it is always difficult to get them to leave the pool. We have enjoyed the many local attractions such as the dolphin riding at Zoo Marine, Karting Almancil and the Aqua Family Park. The beaches are excellent and all within a half hour drive. Most times we dine at one of the many local restaurants where the prices are half what you pay on the coast and kids are especially well catered for.
Roll on 2010!

Peace relaxation and sunshine in a rural setting.

Alta Lovers Surrey
Review Submitted: October 13, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
With its lovely quiet setting in a little hollow, Cruz Alta brings peace, homeliness and relaxation. We fell in love with its rural converted farmhouse character. The fact that we've returned many times speaks for our enjoyment and appreciation of the careful attention given by the owners and by Basilia, the maid, and Linda, the manager. The owners have maintained and developed the villa to ensure the facilities are of the highest standard.

Sport, sea, entertainment and good restaurants are all within range, but they have to compete hard to tempt us away from enjoying the good pool and facilities, not forgetting the sunshine!

We have stayed elsewhere in the Algarve, but Cruz Alta ranks amongst the best.

Peace and Tranquility

Review Submitted: October 3, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We’re really looking forward to our fifth visit to Casa da Cruz Alta.

Normally we like to spend our holidays in different locations but this the first place that we have ever wanted to return to regularly.

The house is in a superb setting with well maintained, secluded gardens.

Well shaded patio area for dining and relaxing with a good book.

Well equipped kitchen with a good range of appliances and inglenook dining.

A little bit of peace and quiet and a chance to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
