Amazing place

Far from the crowded Algarve, we could have an experience of pure relaxation. The house is amazing, with astonishing views of the nature until the sea and the pool is superb. Very well equiped and prepared for large groups too

Casa Estrela is a stunning villa in the perfect location, oozing tradition and character, and with the most fabulous views; the epitome of peace and tranquillity! It is beautifully appointed with a fantastic master suit and four other great bedrooms, a kitchen with everything you would want and plenty of dining and reception room. We ate out on the terrace every day and used the traditional BBQ most evenings. The gardens are beautifully maintained, and the separate pool area and facilities make the property feel enormous. I’d not used Vrbo previously but the host was excellent, answering any queries promptly, providing a mass of information, and making sure we had everything we needed. Many thanks Paul!

Amazing villa, so spacious, lots of areas for people to read, sunbathe, chill, play ping pong. Scenic views across the hills and Faro (in the distance). Pool is deep and large and a great outdoor BBQ area with small kitchen and bathroom by the pool. Diving board was a huge plus with the kids. Location is really quiet, peaceful and idyllic location. The hosts were very helpful with restaurant recommendations and information about the area. Wonderful holiday.

Hillside Villa

Lovely villa, very spacious, pictures dont do it justice. Very quiet location, so car definitely needed. Some lovely restaurants in the nearby villages. Only downside is the track up to the villa is very narrow & made even more so by bushes

Stunning villa set amongst beautiful traditional Portuguese countryside, high enough to have an amazing view out to the sea in the distance. Instructions were clear and helpful before arrival and the villa is well catered for every need. Extremely comfortable for a large family. The kitchen is well equipped and the lounge / study area is great to chill in the evenings. We enjoyed eating outside on the veranda and the kids loved the take tennis! The pool is beautiful, well kept and has sun loungers and seats for everyone in our party, with the added benefit of an additional kitchen and toilet nearby, to save going back up the villa. The grounds and gardens are very pretty, adding to the beauty of the villa and making it a little sanctuary in the quiet hillside.Easy 20 minute drive from Faro Airport and close by to Loule, Villamora, Sao Bras and Albufeira - whether you’re looking for coastline and inland adventures. Highly recommend - excellent!

Superb secluded villa

Spent two weeks at Casa Estrela with a family of six. Villa is very spacious and well away from any other properties. The pool is deep with a diving board the kids enjoyed. Spent most of our time here relaxing. Villa has everything you need for self catering. Supermarkets are a 10 minute drive away. Water parks and the coast are 30-40 minutes drive for a day out. If you want a quiet relaxing family holiday this villa can’t be faulted. Lovely views down to the coast. Villa is built to be cool but aircon in every room helps in the hot nights. Paul the owner was very helpful on WhatsApp. Overall we had a wonderful holiday. Highly recommend Casa Estrela

Perfect luxury villa

Wow! Casa Estrela is absolutely stunning and the photos cannot prepare you for the views out to the sea. The information emailed by Paul the owner before arrival was very helpful and detailed - make sure to read it fully before arrival for instructions on accessing the house. The main bedroom is huge, with its own en suite and large balcony. The house is perfect for large groups and we will be bringing our family here at a later date. The pool is wonderful and set on its own terrace, which gives a nice alternative for meals (a BBQ and kitchenette down here). You definitely need a car to make the most of the area, as the villa is set up a long private drive. We enjoyed the local beaches and the palace of Estoi and Roman ruins nearby. However, Casa Estrela has absolutely everything you need and you could quite happily never leave the villa Thank you so much for such an incredible stay, you have a truly beautiful villa. We look forward to staying again!

Casa Estrela exceeded all our expectations, it was simply perfect for our family group. It is a beautifully designed property, from the huge spaces, the pool area, the landscaping, the privacy and quiet location, down to the fittings and furniture. You will need a car, but the main local towns and beaches are within an easy 20-30 minute drive away. We very highly recommend this property for a serene holiday in the Algarve.

Excellent Séjour

Superbe maison, un peu isolée de tout mais très calme avec vue sur la mer au loin.Piscine très agréable avec une belle infrastructure à proximité. Il n'y a pas de petite profondeur pour les jeunes enfants. La couverture wifi est limitée dans les chambres. Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour en famille.

Amazing stay in Faro

The place was beyond our expectations. The villa was so clean and with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Large bedrooms, great bathroom, amazing outside pool and the view was stunning. A little bit far from the center but this is what you get when you are looking for quiet holidays :) Thanks again Paul !

La propriété est conforme à la description. Il y a tout le nécessaire. Tous les équipements sont très appréciables (piscine, tennis et golf) et nous en avons bien profité. Bien au calme avec une superbe vue, seulement le clocher de l'église du village. Mario est un hôte charmant.
