Beautiful home in rural Algarve

We are two families of 8 who had a delightful stay at Quinta da Forteleza in August. The house is really lovely and the accommodation perfect for our large party as all rooms have large ensuites. Thank you Ian for the House Book which was a mine of useful information. Our party enjoyed dinner at the local beach restaurant (make sure you book in advance as Very Popular and the night sea breeze can make it too chilly to sit outside). Avoid Intermarche at Budens if you don't want to spend your holiday in queues. We thoroughly enjoyed water sports at Luz, which were very good value for money. Unfortunately we were not perfect guests and managed to lock ourselves out of the property, but Ian came straight to the rescue and new locks had been fitted by the time we returned from our day out. Thanks Ian for a great stay!

Voor ons gezin was het een fantastisch verblijf op een prachtige plek.

Wij waren met ons gezin van in totaal 9 personen, waaronder 3 kinderen van 4 mnd, 1 jaar en 6 jaar. Het is een prachtig huis met veel ruimte. Ieder heeft ruimte voor eigen privacy en ook in de woonkamer is voldoende ruimte om samen te zijn zonder elkaar te hinderen. Het huis ligt prachtig op een heuvel dicht bij een mooi strandje met een fijne strandtent. Het zwembad aan huis is groot genoeg en comfortabel. Kortom: aan absolute aanrader voor mensen die samen willen zijn en van een bepaalde rust houden. Overigens ligt er op 20' rijden een leuke stad (Lagos) en is er op 10'rijden een dorp waar de nodige voorzieningen te vinden zijn.

Fabulous spacious villa with helpful, attentive property manager.

A lovely spacious villa, perfect for two families. The pool area was clean and inviting with plenty of shaded areas. The table tennis was an added bonus and the gardens were very attractive. The balcony on the middle floor was large enough for everyone to eat together and the kitchen was well equipped. The air con was reliable and effective Ian was a perfect host. He replied to all queries promptly and endeavoured to have the villa ready earlier as we came in on early morning flights. He visited to check that everything was ok once we had settled in and even assisted with the car tolls. I would recommend him 100%. The only things that would improve this villa are : more comfortable mattresses, a higher extractor hood over the hob (lost count of how many times we banged our heads !), a free maid service if staying for more than a week and a couple of decking boards on the top balcony were slightly loose.

Fantastic and spacious house with incredible view

We enjoyed our stay at this fantastic and beautiful villa. Lots of space for the whole extended family. The kids loved their own bathroom as we had our own privacy as well. Very good maintained heated swimming pool. The villa is clean and the housemanager is very friendly and helpfull in any way. With a beautiful view from the main bedroom with the enjoyable jacuzzi. The nearest beach is only a 6 minutes walk away and the other incredible beaches like Praia de Rocha 35 minutes traveling. Or the End of the World is a 30 minutes drive. Nearby supermarkets and the facilities. The recommended restaurants in Salema like Atlantico and Agua de Boca are excellent. Especially Agua de Boca is recommendable with excellent service, good ambiance and very friendly. We are definitely coming back!!

Beautiful villa in superb location

Our extended family enjoyed a fantastic stay in this beautiful villa. With four large bedrooms with en-suite facilities, there is plenty of room to accommodate everybody. The villa is very well furnished, beautifully maintained & equipped and has lots of outside space with a lovely pool and garden. The rooftop jacuzzi with far reaching sea views is a stunning feature.The local beaches of Burgau & Salema are gorgeous and have lots of good restaurants to choose from, while the local beach and restaurant are good and within walking distance. We particularly enjoyed the excellent walks and drives in the immediate vicinity through fabulous countryside. If anything the listing particulars cannot do justice to this property, which we would recommend highly.
