Perfect place to explore the surroundings
The property is a small house next to the owners home. It is set in beautiful mature Algarve gardens. The swimming pool is gorgeous and is for sole use of guests. Even though the place is beautiful, it is also a good idea to explore the area. Everything is around a 20 minute drive. Perfect location and stunning beaches everywhere. I absolutely recommend it.

Magnifique propriété
Nous avons passé une magnifique semaine dans la propriété de Joao et Sabina, qui sont d'ailleurs très accueillants, sympathiques et de bons conseils pour pouvoir profiter au mieux de notre séjour au Portugal. La maison est ultra propre à l'arrivée, l'équipement est parfait pour une famille. La piscine est idéale. Il y a la climatisation et c'est un plus ! Localisé dans un petit coin tranquille, nous étions au calme, à une petite demie heure de beaucoup de choses à faire. Il faut donc prendre la voiture mais ce n'est pas une contrainte quand une belle piscine chaude et des transats vous attendent au retour ...

Endroit parfait
Nous avons apprécié le calme du site, son cadre et sa belle piscine qui ont ravi les enfants. Des accès directs pour aller en ville, à la mer, à la montagne . De plus le soleil était au rendez-vous, ce qui nous a permis de vivre en extérieur. Les hôtes João et Sabrina sont très sympathiques et disponibles si besoin. Je recommande vivement.
