Awesome holiday!

This property was very private and we were blessed with gorgeous weather for nearly the entire month that we were there. The villa was clean and well kept. Only draw back would be that it was quite cool during the early morning and after sunset. There are electric heaters, but the system can only handle a couple heaters plugged in at a time. So just remember to bring cozy clothes for when the sun has disappeared! Close to loads of beaches and restaurants. The owners were awesome to deal with, we would absolutely recommend this villa!

Schöne Villa in ruhiger Lage

Sehr schöne Villa in der Nähe von Monchique. Wir waren eine Gruppe von 9 Freunden und hatten mehr als ausreichend Platz. Der Pool. Grill und der Aussenbereich laden zum geselligen Beisammensein ein. Die Haushälterin Paula ist stets hilfreich und sehr freundlich. Eine zusätzliche Beleuchtung für den Aussenbreich und ein paar bequemere Stühle würde das Abendessen im freien erleichtern :) Zusammengefasst eine sehr schöne geräumige Villa mit kleinen Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung. Vielen Dank

Quinta da Mimosa

Imóvel correspondeu às expectativas, com muita privacidade e boa localização. Quarto no último piso sem ar condicionado que nesta altura é face às temperaturas, não se consegue dormir.

We are glad to hear the house lived up to your expectations and you liked the privacy and location. We have not experienced such heat as this has been before, but we will look at ways to get air con to the top room,

A very relaxing week in beautiful surroundings

What a find! I visited Caldas de Monchique 25 years ago and I am so happy I remembered and booked this beautiful spot. The house has lots of room to spread out, everything works and the inside and outside space facilitates relaxation! Although you have the most beautiful natural surroundings ( wild boar in the river below at night - dark skies for the sky watchers and all manner of frogs butterflies and birds in the gorgeous gardens round the lovely pool. You are still close to restaurants ( one directly opposite the property) Also a 20 minute drive to the spectacular Pria de vau ! Big waves and warm sea ( depending on which way current is flowing ) Supermarket is 10 mins drive - eating in is preferable if you want to enjoy vino verde by the pool and not worry about driving home. Great barbecue and local fish market saw us satisfied!! Really didn’t want to leave! Spa hotel delivered the best massages we ladies had ever had ( we are fussy ladies ) Boys 16 x 3 also for with the chilled vibe and enjoyed the pool, going on little walks and watched some films Everything in the villa worked well and the space was great . We all had a wonderful time and we will be back to enjoy nature at its best without being miles from anywhere. One of our best ever holidays! Thanks Judith and co

Brilliant break.

We stay here regularly because we cannot resist going back. It's centrally located, not too far up the mountain and not too far from Portimao and the beaches. It is wonderfully relaxing and the villa really has everything we need and is very spacious with four bedrooms and four bathrooms as well as a separate dining room. There are some traditional country restaurants an easy walk away..

Nice setting and overall a good house but some more attention to details needed

We had a very nice stay in Portugal but was a bit disappointed about the kitchen cuttlery, that only one set of towels were available per person, no towels were replaced during the stay and that the maid did not show up until we contacted the house representative.

Fantastic Villa set in scenic woods

We had the please sure of staying at the villa in Aug 16. Its roughly 1 hr away from Faro airport, and if you follow the supplied instructions its very easy to find. The villa is very spacious with separate living room and dining room, the lounge comes with satellite TV which gives you the basic BBC and news channels. The villa comes with Wifi which is 3G based so the connection speeds can be intermittent, its fine for web browsing, IM, snap chat etc, however you may struggle to watch netflix or BBC iplayer i would recommend downloading any films. The bedrooms again are spacious, and the mattress are nice and firm, my only grip is whilst all the rooms have fans, their is no AC, due to the location of the villa its quite cool at night however towards the end of our stay it the temperature reached the late 30s and we would have preferred AC. cleaning lady visits every day to clean the villa and change bedding and she can help resolve any issues and also advise on places to go and see, when we arrived at the villa some of the sun beds where damaged and she arranged for new ones the next day. a few more parasouls would be good. The villa is clean and the photos fairly depict the furniture and style of the villa. The pool is a lagoon style pool in a figure 8 shape, its split into 2 halfs, the first half is shallow about 70cm deep so ideal for young kids, the 2nd half is 1.80cm deep so older kids can jump. The pools roughly about 8m long so you can really do lenghts in it. It looks amazing at night with the pool lights on so some great pictures.. The best thing about the villa is its locations, its away from any main stream tourist bars and restaurants and .so if you want to experience the real Portugal this is the villa for you. There are a number of local restaurants on the main rd, and they are great value for money and very friendly. One of the gems about this is villa is its very secluded so at night the Sky comes alive and if you go to the top balcony its great for Star gazing. If you want to go a bit more main stream the large town of Albufeira and Portimao are roughly 30-40 mins away in a car and approx 20euros in a Taxi. Another great drive is mount Foia which is approx 1000m and if you have the nerve to drop to the top you will be rewarded with some amazing views. The owners provide a fantastic guide to the villa and how to use the facilities and also the local area, which has some handy tips about locations to see and visit.

Peace and tranquillity

Spacious villa with wonderful pool and spa set in 12 acres of private grounds. Owner Alan very helpful, promptly responding to all requests and especially helpful with providing information on the local area and restaurants. Maid service 5 times a week. Villa within walking distance of a couple of restaurants and the bus stop. Very private, unpretentious villa made for a relaxing stay.

A palace in the mountain

The house was beautiful, spacious and clean. There was everything we needed for our holiday. Much much better than the pics show. Pool and jacuzzi fab. Very tranquil you could only hear the sounds of nature. Wish I could live there.

Excellent!

A wonderful stay! Ideal for relaxing, after a day of travel. Despite the absolute privacy and tranquility, it's located close to the road and it takes 25-30 minutes to get to the beach. We preferred to Meia Praia, although there are many other equally interesting beaches. Just not far from the house is a termal Caldas De Monchique Spa Resort and Monchique mountain with stunning views. The nature around is amazing. The house is large, very clean and bright. Bedrooms are comfortable, with nice balconies. Kitchen is well equipped. Lovely pool, great place for a barbecue. Huge convenient parking. The place is so picturesque that do not want to leave. The owner, Alan, responds immediately to every email. He is very kind and provide exellent service. I would recommend this house to all those who seek tranquility, serenity and comfort.
