Candida & Rebecca were so welcoming and helpful right from booking to checkin in/out. Thank you both!First impressions..stunning! The entrance!The house itself is located 5 minutes walk from Praia da Marinha beach so morning swims and leisurely visits were lovely, no need to pack up for the whole day. The house is 10 minutes drive to the nearest supermarket so 2 big shops during a 1 week stay, we had everything we needed for meals, drinks and evenings in. The house is well equipped with pretty much everything you would need for a holiday. The location is nicely quiet and the house is not overlooked. If you're looking for full on night life and busy bars, this is not the place for you, a few Euros in an Uber for night out is easy and v.cheap, but the loveliest attraction is the fact the house is big, the pool is huge for a rental and beautifully furnished that you can't help but relax. Lazy mornings by the pool, then the beach or vice versa, exploring the costal path and all the wonderful beaches just a short drive east or west makes this spot perfect for families or groups who truly want to experience the Algarve. Renting a car is wise.The house is located perfectly to all the major roads to all the local towns and villages. Carvoeiro, Ferragudo, Albuferia, Monchique, Silves are all easily connected. The gardens around the house are stunning, well cared for and the property very secure. We can't wait to come back, next time for much longer.Gareth, Liz & Connie
