Nice villa but very noisy surroundings
Neighbours' dogs barking days and nights, there is a night bar Hugo's bar, 5 minutes walking from the villa with noisy party drunky people leaving it between 3 and 4 AM every night except on Mondays and 4 trash containers opposite the gate of the villa, with the truck crane to empty them at 8 AM ! That's a pity because the villa and pool are nice and beach with surf spots great!

We had the best 3 weeks!
We had the most wonderful time here with friends and family.
The house has everything you need to feel right at home and easily fits 6 adults (plus some kids), with space enough for a little privacy when needed- it never felt crowded. Everything was comfortable, tidy, enough linens & towels for everyone, plus a working washing machine & dishwasher.
The pool was clean, very well kept and big enough to actually swim a bit!
Any requests / problems we had were dealt with immediately.
There's a minimarket, some cafés and restaurants in walking distance and the house is just 5 min away (by car) from the beaches of arrifana and monte clerigo.
We will (have already, actually) recommend this place to our friends and will definitely try to make the time & come back next year!
Lovely, clean villa with large spacious kitchen, dining and living area. Comfortable and cool even when the temperature got up into the low 30’s. A mixture of fitted fly screens, muslin drapes and window shutters allows the property to effectively be kept at a comfortable temperature, (day & night), without the use of energy guzzling air con. A great area with a very chilled vibe. Lots of amazing beaches, towns. villages, bars and restaurants within a short drive. Only 1 bar/ restaurant opened in the immediate area (30 seconds walk from the villa!), while we were there but 2 more had opened for the season on the morning we left.
Fabienne is a pleasure to deal with - an efficient, responsive and pleasant communicator. Any queries or problems dealt with immediately. Great value. Would love to come again.
Excelente casa, bem apetrechada e acolhedora. Muito limpa. A habitação está muito bem localizada, tendo vários serviços por perto. Vale muito a pena, pois passam-se ali uns belos dias de descanso.
Recomendo muito
Really nice villa in a great location. Lovely private pool. Convenient for shops and beaches. Owners were very friendly and helpful, and their local cleaner was attentive but not intrusive. The old town of Aljezur is a just a few miles away and has some good shops and cafes. Would be delighted to come back another time
Descanso y desconexión en una ubicación fantastica
Me ha parecido ideal para familias de 5/6 personas. Una casa muy acogedora, amplia y con orientación norte sur que le proporciona una temperatura perfecta en verano. La piscina y barbacoa están geniales. La cocina realmente funcional y acogedora. Mis hijos se sintieron como en casa desde el primer día.
Das Haus hat alles was das Herz begehrt. Insbesondere der Aussenbereich mit dem grossen Pool lässt keine Wünsche offen. Dazu kommt die super Lage zu den Traumstränden in der Umgebung und die nette Kommunikation mit den Gastgebern. Einziger Minuspunkt für uns, die teilweise sehr laute Musik von Hugo's Bar bis spät in die Nacht. Aber trotzdem. Würden jederzeit wiederkommen. 5 Sterne
Local ideal para adultos e crianças desfrutarem de uns dias de férias muito agradáveis
Sabendo ser um local ventoso, a localização ao alpendre e piscina estão estrategicamente bem colocados de forma a estarem protegidos do vento norte e proporcionarem fins de tarde e noites agradáveis. Casa com áreas muito amplas. Cozinha muito bem equipada ( com crianças pequenas, torna-se num pequeno grande detalhe). Áreas comuns muito agradáveis.
Gestores da propriedade muito amáveis.
A repetir, sem duvida
Casa bastante agradável e espaçosa. Piscina boa e limpa.
Falha não ter um espaço verde.
Casas de banho precisam de uma limpeza mais profunda.
De um modo geral bastante positivo.
A casa é fantástica, muito bem equipada e cuidada, situa-se numa zona tranquila mas de fácil acesso de carro a várias praias maravilhosas! Adoramos a nossa estadia!
