About this property

Luxury Villa With Private Pool 5-10 min. walk from the beach/village

Casa Rosina’s spacious, clean, secure and private accommodation is equipped with all the facilities a modern family needs to enjoy their holiday. When staying - our house is your house. The kids can stay entertained playing with body boards, pool toys, board games, TV, while the parents relax around the pool or share sun-downers at the relaxing poolside bar/lounge area. We have now completely refurbished Casa Rosina since taking it over in 2007 and we still look to improve it further each year. Great feedback from our guests is really appreciated. The decor is simple and modern and the villa is very well equipped for large groups and for entertaining both inside and out by the pool. Well stocked local supermarkets with delivery service available for home cooked meals or barbeques, takeaways and the numerous restaurants provide endless dining options. We have invested in good quality divan beds which can be pushed together to make good king-size doubles or pulled apart for single occupancy. We supply hotel quality white Egyptian bed linen and towels which are professionally laundered at each changeover. The unique positioning of Casa Rosina within the village offers an easy 5 minute walk to the beach and a 2 minute walk from the bars and restaurants of the central square - forget the car. Our villa is but a short meander up the cobbled streets from the village square and quayside past the church. Ferragudo is reported to be the most photographed village in the Algarve. Its unspoiled cobbled streets and picture postcard houses blend seamlessly with the local bars and restaurants. The unique atmosphere of Ferragudo is created by a blend of village life and the small local fishing business that supplies fresh fish to the numerous restaurants.

Fabulous stay
The villa was ideal for a large family including a baby and a 3 year old . All safety gates installed. Loads of space and well equipped. The bedrooms were amazing with comfy beds. It is ideally situated to walk to the beach and the lovely town square. Which had lots of character and small winding streets. Definitely stay here again

Short stay with 6 friends
This villa is just perfect, we were 6 friends of over 40 years, the villa is spacious and has everything you need. The pool is lovely and we had lovely late nights sitting under the fairy lights in the bar by the pool. Ferragudo is lovely and a great base for seeing the Algarve. Would highly recommend

Beautiful Ferragudo
Beautiful spot. House was immaculate . Met at door by Kersten who showed us the villa and where things were in the town. It was our 40 th anniversary and there was a bottle of wine and beer in the fridge and a basket of goodies. The beach was only a 10 min walk and the town square 5 min away. There were 9 of us and we all had our own space. Pool was a definite plus as it was very hot . Would definitely recommend to stay here.

The villa was everything we were looking for; proximity to town and beach and easy drive to POIs.
The house was roomy and very comfortable for our group of 7 adults. The pool area was a big plus with plenty of new outdoor furniture, a grill and a feeling of privacy. The kitchen was well-stocked for our cooking needs. Aside from a few burnt out lightbulbs, everything was clean and in working order. Kerstin, the property manager was friendly available and accommodating. Although the en suite bathroom could use some remodeling to be considered "luxury", this was not a big issue for us. We would most definitely recommend Casa Rosina to anyone wanting a convenient Algarve location and a beautiful, private home to relax in with friends and family!

When can we come back?
We are five friends who have just returned from a week at Casa Rosina. What can I say, but it was perfect. The bright and spacious villa gave us all that we needed. Showers with great water pressure and comfortable beds are taken for granted at home, you’ll find them here too.The rooftop gave us wonderful sunrises. The kitchen contained everything needed, the corkscrew was broken and one purchased locally wasn’t that good so maybe take one in case. The kitchen-terrace was our spot for breakfast and the poolside area was our place to return to in the evening. I turned into a water baby this holiday as the pool was so warm and inviting. The additional ground floor kitchen was a true bonus. Then there is Ferragudo it’s self. Two beautiful local beaches and local shops and restaurants meant you wouldn’t need to leave, but with easy and cheap water taxis you will want to explore. Get the train to Lagos from Portimão......definite recommendation. We all felt a week was not enough and so would gladly return. Thank you Gina for sharing this beauty.

Sunny townhouse in the Algarve
This lovely townhouse is at the top of the hill up many twisty little roads, in a neighborhood that reminds me of Florida—lots of white townhouses stacked up the hill. This is an expat retirement community so not much of the original Portuguese fishing community feel left. The townhouse is 4 levels—a rooftop sun deck with views of the ocean, three bedrooms (master with bath, 2 bedrooms with shared bath) on the 1st floor (2nd story to people from the US), open living room/dining room with well stocked kitchen on the ground floor, with lovely deck, then walkout basement with two bedrooms and shared bathroom, exits to the pool level on the final lower level. The house is sunny and spacious—definitely made for large groups. Beautiful pool and large sitting area, BBQ, lemon trees. There are lots of stairs, so if people in your group have problems with stairs, be forewarned. It was very comfortable. It’s about a 45 minute drive to Sagres. There are lots of restaurants just down the hill—east walk— and the beach is a 10 minute walk. The port area is lovely. Perfect home if you want a sun/pool/beach vacation. The owner Gina is super easy to communicate with, very nice. Easy checkin. Just note that the lower walkout basement does have a mildew smell common in seaside places.

The Perfect Home Away from Home
The Casa Rosina is a lovely villa, and the perfect home away from home. This is my second time staying at the Casa Rosina, and hopefully it won’t be our last! We were a group of eight, two families of four, and the Casa Rosina was perfect for us. The villa is perfectly set up for large groups, with lots of space, bathrooms and big bedrooms to suit everyone. The outdoor space and pool are fabulous, and were thoroughly enjoyed every afternoon. The beach is an easy and enjoyable 10 minute walk, and by the end of our stay we had a perfect routine of spending our mornings at the beach, grabbing snacks and drinks at the Escondidinho or Kalu before heading back to the Casa Rosina for a late lunch and an afternoon swim in the sun! We ate in on a few occasions and found the kitchen to be well equipped. The outside dining areas were large enough to accommodate all eight of us which was great. When we didn’t eat in we went to the ‘square’ in Ferragudo. We ate at Italia, the Portorade, and Farragood (located across the street from the square and up the hill) and enjoyed great meals at each of these restaurants and all at a reasonable price. There are lots of restaurants to choose from in Ferragudo, there truly is something to suit every taste. The beach is great! It is big and wide, with lots of room for kids to play, or enjoy a stroll along the shore. The convenience of a lovely beach, a variety of good restaurants and supermarkets (two you can walk to, and a Lidl just 10mins by car) make this Villa, and Ferragudo, a must for any family or group considering a stay in the Algarve. When we arrived we were met by Corinna, she was kind and helpful and not only gave us a run down on how things worked but also a welcome pack of food and drinks. A lovely touch that was much appreciated after a long hot day. The ease of booking, and the prompt and kind responses from Gina and family were the final touches that made the Casa Rosina perfect! From start to finish Gina was great, as was the Casa Rosina. We are from Canada and arriving at the Casa Rosina felt like coming home. The Villa is spacious and clean, well-kept and obviously cared for by the owners. Ferragudo is a wonderful place, and the Casa Rosina makes the perfect holiday home for any group.

Never over promised and under delivered. We got exactly what we expected. Would definitely rent there again if we go back to that area.

Perfect for a couple of families
Great villa in a great spot, perched on the top of the hill in Ferragudo with a short walk to the main square and a short walk to the main beach. Swimming pool area was beautiful and felt private, lined with some lemon trees which all added to the charm. Kitchen terrace perfect for breakfast and lunch to get out of the sun. Roof terrace absolutely perfect for those early evening glasses of wine. A few bits of furniture were starting to fray around the edges, but I'm sure that will be taken care of in time for the new holiday season next year (plus the front door sticks a bit, nothing a bit of sanding down wouldn't take care of). All in all, bar some small cosmetic improvements (which won't detract from your stay) it was perfect for what we needed it for - local restaurants all excellent (the Indian in the square is actually the pick of the bunch) and the check in process was completely smooth, arranged via Whatsapp. I look forward to visiting again.

Beyond our expectations!
Everything about Casa Rosina was amazing! Gina your home is beautiful and very clean. We had a group of 8 of us the first two weeks (my husbands family). When they .... hated to leave....my family arrived, group of seven of us. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. If we weren’t touring around we stayed and enjoyed the huge private pool. At night we sat outside around the fire pit. Not only was the house exceptional, but the whole area of Ferragudo was beautiful and easy access to everything within walking. The village square had lots of restaurants and gift shops. Also visited all the local pubs at night. Ashley, the pub owner, gave my brother-in-law a guitar and he entertained the crowd. Everyone loved his playing and singing. He even offered him another gig to come back lol! We had a few cars rented for touring to other places, but you could easily just stay there for two weeks without a car, lots to do within walking. Beach bars were lots of fun. We hiked the coastline to Carvoeiro. The boys rented mountain bikes for three days and were gone for the day. The girls took the water taxi to Portimao for some shopping. Thank you again Gina! And was so nice to meet Kerstin, Manager, she is a lovely person. Hope to return one day for longer than a month. Carolyn W.

Lovely Property and Location
This is a lovely property in a very pretty location. The villa is well equipped with lovely pool area. The bedrooms were very pretty. We had a three year old with us so the games cupboard was well used in the evenings. Ferragudo is small and not overly touristy. The square full of bars is delightful. The beaches are nearby and again delightful. The locals and the tourists were all very friendly. We were sorry we were only there for a week. I would certainly recommend this villa and the help from both Gina and Kerstin. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Gina

Host profile image
Hi we are sisters in law. Between us we have four children from ages 16 to 24, two husbands, three dogs and a cat! The children share grandparents who live permanently in Ferragudo so we love to holiday together and have done so for the last sixteen years. We try to go at least twice a year and the rest of the time we like to think we share our villa and the lovely location with others! Many of our clients go again and again. I manage the bookings and pride myself on adding that extra touch to make planning your holiday that much easier and reassuring. We have plenty of help managing the villa, nothing is too much trouble from providing numerous birthday cakes (40th, 50th, 60th and 70th's so far....) contacts for restaurants or coordinating other villas for large groups of wedding guests. We ourselves like to try a different adventure or activity each year (from mountain biking, buggy driving, and sea kayaking to local spa's) We still have climbing, horse riding and plenty more on the 'to do' list.

Why they chose this property

We saw the house for sale, unexpectedly, on a weekend trip away and just thought it was perfect for families holidaying together, as we do.
Ferragudo is a perfect location. We can get everywhere by foot. Beach and beach bars by day, and the village square with its bars, restaurants and entertainment by night. We no longer hire a car, which is great for larger groups, we just choose where to meet up with each other. We can arrange airport transfers with a local firm on request. Ferragudo is unspoilt but with plenty to do and gets better each time we visit.
The busier resort of Praia da Rocha and the town of Portimao are easily accessible by water taxi, a short ride across the river. For trips further out we use a very reliable local taxi firm.
We love to play tennis and have tried organized mountain bike and kayak tours.

What makes this property unique

Benefits include the large private pool, a must for the children and adults alike in the Algarve sunshine.
Great location, just 8 minute walk to the beach with activities, bars and restaurants, or a 5 minute walk down to the village square with many bars and restaurants.
There is ample space for entertaining at Casa Rosina. We often BBQ by the pool in the evening and then walk down to the village square for a few drinks. Or we eat out and then end up by the poolside bar for a nightcap or more usually a cup of tea! We have a covered outdoor lounge area with rattan suite. Our villa is well equipped and has recently benefited from a complete refurbishment, including new beds, sofas, TV, BBQ, stereo, hotel quality linen, towels and soft furnishings.
The locals are very friendly. We often find that our clients have met friends of ours out there, we try not to get jealous! We have also had many compliments about our house manager Kerstin who is very helpful and lives locally, so is available to our guests whilst staying at Casa Rosina, should the need arise.
