We stayed at Quinta de Peixe Rei for 6 weeks with another couple. It is exactly as you see. Suited our every need, the views were incredible. One thing you cannot see is how comfortable this Villa was, or the scent of orange blossoms that greeted us every morning. We explored many of the small towns of the Algarve, but we always felt, at the end of the day when we were sitting in the living room, or at the kitchen table, that "...we were home". We felt this was our home while we were there. Our hosts Martin and Serilia, Maria and Luis, were wonderful, their knowledge of the area, the history of Portugal and their hospitality were well above our expectations. It was one of our most memorable and enjoyable holidays.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, girls getaway.

We can't say enough good things about this villa. Four of us spent 6 weeks at Quinta Peixie Rei and absolutely LOVED it! It was a perfect fit for us. The location was wonderful. We were able to explore the entire Algarve coast and as far north as Evora and east to Seville, Spain and still make it back to Peixie Rei for the night. The villa is exactly as pictured and even better. Everything is well maintained and kept clean. The owners are marvellous and we thoroughly enjoyed their hospitality. I would love to return with the entire family and rent the converted stable and pool area as well. We found plenty of great places to eat and explore. One of our BEST EVER holidays!!!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

One of the better holidays we have had to date. The property is well kept, comfortable and very affordable. Martin and Cerilia were great and very helpful. With the bus stop 5 minutes from the Villa there was no need to rent a car. The Villa made for a great home base, it's central location made easy access to any part of the Algarve, and we were able to be "Home" in time for dinner and a dip in the pool. The Market in Olhao is a great place for fresh meat,fish and vegetables. Five minutes from the villa each Sunday, the BBQ Chicken dinner at Cafe Martins (no relation) is a must. We would recommend this to anyone, without any hesitation. Very affordable for families and small groups (3 bedrooms) A relaxing holiday for those who want to hang by the pool and a busy holiday for the adventurous. We had the best of both worlds. We will be back.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, sightseeing, tourists without a car, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

This home is situated in the middle of a citrus plantation which we were free to help ourselves to every day. The home is lovely, very clean and very comfortable. It is roomy...there were 4 of us staying there for a month and it was such a pleasure to come back to this villa at the end of a long day of sight-seeing. Comfy beds!! Thank you to the Silva Family, Maria and Luis and Walter. We could not have asked for a better home to stay in. What a treat to have our morning coffees on any of the 4 balconies overlooking the immaculate grounds and pool. The village of Quelfes where this villa is located is so relaxing. The small port city of Olhao is within a 10 minute drive from the villa. We are still basking in the great feelings we had from staying here and in the Algarve 2 months ago.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+.

Perfect for a very relaxing holiday in a beautiful location. The three-bedroom villa is spacious and well-equipped. The pool is great, with good views, in lovely, shaded gardens, and was the focal point of our stay. Martin and Cerilla were perfect hosts, quick to help and advise, never intrusive. At 30 minutes from Faro, five from Olhao's shops and restaurants, the villa is well-located. We would definitely go back as a family, and perhaps next time in a larger group using the converted stable too with its second pool. This is really an idyllic place for a comfortable and peaceful vacation, for adults, kids and teenagers alike.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+.

Owner info
About the owner: I live in Canada with my wife Serilia, but we spend the summers in Portugal taking care of this wonderful property that her parents built and we renovated. I do some of the gardening. She does some of the decorating, and helps people try portuguese recipies. We both answer all questions about the area and help the guests in their search to discover the Algarve, all the way to Spain (40 minutes away).
Why the Owner Chose Olhão:
This area of the Algarve is close to Spain, more agricultural. The Villa is surrounded by an orange grove of 7,000 trees. When in season, unlimited orange juice to be had!
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Very quiet area of the Algarve. The site is away from the main road, totally secluded but with an amazing view of the mountain and the sea.
