Perfect secluded spot for a relaxed holiday

We loved the style of the house, how quiet it was, and the fact that you could reach a stunning beach with almost no other people within 10-15 minutes walk. Great spot all around, we felt right at home!

Dream space

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights on our three week trip through Spain and Portugal. This was far and away our favorite place. The house was exceptionally clean and had everything we needed to make meals. Hiking right from the house to the beach, to the cute town of Salema or just along the bluffs. It was quiet and peaceful. Five stars.

Perfect!

We couldn't have been happier with this house and the experience in general. The house itself sits up with a few other houses with easy access to the Fisherman's Trail and all of its offshoots. There's a small beach about 10-15 minutes walk away. Perfect for a late afternoon or early morning swim or a day at the beach. The house isn't huge, but it's well laid out and perfect for two couples or a family. Luis was great at communicating and really made our stay feel like we were at home. There's a grocery store about two minutes away that is seriously the best grocery store we went to during our stay in Portugal. It has everything you need. We hiked every day right from the house and either cooked on the outdoor barbecue or walked or drove into Salema for dinner. We will definitely be back!

SIX stars!

Incredible VRBO experience. The house, location, owner and details left nothing to be desired and everything to miss once we left. The close proximity of beaches, restaurants, supermarkets, and hiking/biking trails drew you out but coming back was always relaxing and rejuvenating. Luìs was extremely responsive, generous and accomodating and the house reflects an attentiveness to small details that will make you want to do the same back home. We absolutely loved staying here and will be recommending it to anyone who travels to the south coast of Portugal. Can't wait to come back!

Peaceful Country Retreat

Tucked away and a short drive away from the ocean, restaurants, and shopping is this beautiful retreat tucked away in the wild beauty of the Portuguese countryside. This tastefully appointed country house is brimming with personality and charm and spotlessly clean taking your every need into consideration. While our February trip was not as conducive to outdoor relaxation all around the property from the stone barbecue to a generous patio complemented by french doors which swing open all around the farmhouse make Luis's home a haven for outdoor entertainment. We still bundled up and walked around the property at night stargazing. This was the perfect property to explore the magnificence of the Algarve and then return after a long day of exploration to this very private cozy dream and a glass of wine. Thankyou so much Luis! No question we would stay here again.

Sehr schönes Haus in sehr ruhiger und grüner Umgebung.Ausstattung vollständig. Außendusche ist genial. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Wechsel der Bettwäsche und eine kleine Reinigung wurden nach einer Woche ohne Anforderung durchgeführt. Das hat uns gefreut.
