Christmas Break in The Algarve

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Mar 6, 2013
  • Stayed: Dec 2012
I am reviewing my 2 week Christmas break in the Algarve, staying at this wonderful property. The villa is ideally located for easy access to several golf courses and given the wonderful weather we enjoyed made it a perfect base. With that in mind we intend to return in 2013 to the villa and surrounding area at a warmer time of the year to visit the fantastic local beaches we came across. The villa itself has everything needed for a perfect holiday with friends. It has been tastefully updated and has a lovely fresh, clean feel to it. The bedrooms are generously sized and the bathrooms are obviously Recently updated. Even though this time of the year is quieter we still managed to discover some lovely local restaurants. We tried Porches Velho in the village which was lovely and friendly with delicious food, particularly the Iberian Black Pork. The Indian restaurant, O Indiano in Carvoeiro take some beating and always seems busy. Having stayed in many properties on the Algarve previously, this villa takes a lot of beating for its combination of location, quality of the property and facilities.'

The Perfect Retreat

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 12, 2012
  • Stayed: May 2012
Unfortunately I am now back from a fantastic 2 week break in this idyllic spot. We had 6 adults for the 1st week and only 3 of us for the 2nd and all 6 fell in love with this slice of Portugal.

The villa is in a perfect location on a hilltop giving views to the sea, mountains and the church in Porches which is lit up at night. The views may be fabulous but not as fabulous as laying back on a sun lounger and watching the birds in the garden! The birdsong is perfect background music for sunbathing or a leisurely lunch on the veranda. None of us are birdwatchers but were fascinated by the birds here. Having googled about them we discovered that a pair of Golden Orioles nest in the garden and we also had daily visits from a magnificently coloured love bird.

From a practical point of view the villa is superbly equipped especially the kitchen. The decor is very tasteful and our initial concern at having no air con was soon forgotten when we had the lovely breeze flowing through the house once windows were opened. Everything is immaculately kept especially the extensive gardens.

We holiday in villa's every year, twice a year and have been to many, many beautiful places but few can compare to this tranquil and relaxing location.

Also, the owner John was extremely helpful, easy going and agreeable. We will definitely be visiting again and would highly recommend it to anyone else needing a complete break away from it all.
