Further details for this vacation villa rental in Vale de Milho, Portugal

Carvoeiro: Is a delightful former fishing village just a short drive, or twenty-or-so minute walk, from the villa. The town accommodates most holiday needs with its tourist centre, bars, banks, pharmacy, moped, car and bicycle rental outlets and a variety of restaurants. The central square leads directly on to the beach backed by sandstone cliffs so typical of the Algarve. The coast road leads east and west from the square to a number of secluded coves.

What to do?: Boat trips can be taken from the beaches at Carvoeiro and Benagil to less accessible beaches, coves and caves along the coast. Horse riding, Snorkelling, Tennis and water sports are all available nearby. There are also two water parks ('Slide and Splash' is our preference) and ‘Zoomarine’, a marine theme park, all within a short drive. The tranquillity of the mountains, the pine forests of Monchique and the ancient Moorish walled town of Silves, the latter only 15 kilometres away, make pleasant inland excursions. Alternative, but equally enjoyable, excursions can be made to the old port of Portimao and to Lagos.

Golf: The Algarve is a golfers paradise and Carvoeiro has more than its fair share of interesting courses. Casa das Flores overlooks the first green of the 9-hole, par-3 Vale de Milho course whilst the famous nearby complex at Penina offers three courses designed by Sir Henry Cotton: the 18 hole Championship, the double 9 Resort and the 9 hole Academy. Other nearby courses include Alto Golf, Vale da Pinta, Gramacho and Morgado (opened in 2003). The Vale de Milho clubhouse, two hundred yards from the villa, offers an especially good English breakfast!

Home from home (except with sun!)

Jon J Bath
Review Submitted: September 23, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Pretty much everything about this villa is wonderful, but the thing that I appreciate the most is being able to turn up and start your holiday the moment you walk through the door; with a welcome pack and (superb!) wine system all ready to ease you into a state of relaxation.

I've been a few times and I just keep going back, which must tell you something.

I'm sure it would be possible to use the villa as a base for an activity-based holiday, but I've only ever been there to relax, and the villa, location and weather have never failed to deliver on this score (although I'm sure the weather isn't entirely down to the owners). On my last visit to the villa there were members of the group who left the villa only once in 10 days, they were living by (and in!) the pool. And then in the evenings it was only a short walk to the barbeque – and I must just say I think the barbeque chimney is a very rare thing indeed: a tool that does a job better than you expected. There are a variety of restaurants in the area, with some within walking distance of the villa, but we ate in (a combination of kitchen and bbq cooking) every night except one, and found the villa to be perfectly suited for this too.

And finally, I think it’s worth mentioning that you really do feel that if there was any constructive criticism of the villa the owners would take it on board and do everything they could to deal with it. Unfortunately I’ve never been able to come up with anything in this regard!
Owner's Response: So glad you had a good relaxing holiday at Casa das Flores; we aim to please and make your stay a holiday from the word go. You are right though, we can't guarantee the weather but it's invariably better there than in England.

Even better than I expected!!

LauraAnn Sheffield
Review Submitted: October 19, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
What an AMAZING villa!!

So much bigger in real life than the photos show and plenty of living space, even if the weather isn't too good.

The kitchen is actually better than the new one we've just had at home and everything you could possibly need is in there.

We loved taking advantage of the brill BBQ areas and of course the heated pool! An added bonus is the provision of towels - saves so much space in your suitcase!

We will definately be returning and telling all our friends and family what a find this place is!

Fantastic villa

RBNI Coleraine, Northern Ireland
Review Submitted: September 7, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
Having just spent a week at Casa das Flores I can’t recommend it highly enough. The villa is very comfortable and spacious and comes with a very well equipped kitchen. Much appreciated were the little touches such as board games, books, bottles of wine and the welcome pack. The poolside terrace is a real sun trap and the pool itself is lovely after a few hours of intensive tanning! The villa is only a few minutes drive (or not too far a walk for those feeling energetic) from numerous restaurants and Carvoeiro itself. A great local restaurant is Chicken George while O Barabas is fantastic, as long as you are prepared to travel slightly further afield.

Thanks very much to Jane and Gareth for making our stay so comfortable and relaxing and I hope to be spending some more time at Casa das Flores in the near future!
Owner's Response: We are delighted you enjoyed your week at Casa das Flores. We too always make a point of going to Chicken George and O Barradas (the latter being very much a treat on our last day). As you say, there are at least five restaurants within walking distance but bbq-ing on the terrace is always a good option.

Fabulous Villa

Simon & Amy East Preston, West Sussex
Review Submitted: August 22, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
A fabulous villa with excellent facilities. Villa was clean and tidy and extremely well equipped, we especially liked the American fridge/freezer and use of beach towels, which meant less to pack! The welcome pack was very generous and enjoyed by all. The pool temperature was just right - not too hot, not too cold. We had a fabulous 2 week stay at Casa Das Flores. Restaurants we would recommend would be Julios (within walking distance), Via Italia in central Carveiro and O'Salmao in Monte Carveiro. Would highly recommend this villa.

A Beautiful stay in the Algarve!

dan_p Lancaster
Review Submitted: June 28, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Upon arrival I was struck by how well the grounds were kept, with wonderful gardens and clear attention to detail which set the precedent throughout my stay at the villa.

As the desciption states, thie accomodation was luxury and even more spacious than I had expected. Its was ridiculously well equipt for any need we had (playing cards, books, wine and other esseitnals on arrival). Though like any good summer holiday, most of our time was spent outside, enjoying the warm pool and summer meals outside.

All the small details have been though of for you and with the addition of a dishwasher and maid service - its difficult to imagine how you could fail to have an high enjoyable relaxing time.

Finally, being the sort of person who is fascinated by clever innovations - I was really impressed by the BBQ utensil which was a single piece of equipment which consisted of a knife, spatula, fork and (importantly ;-) ) beer bottle opener - I want one.

I can't recomend this villa enough.
