Schönes Haus mit Pool in ruhiger Lage

Das Haus ist sehr nett eingerichtet. Besonders gefallen hat uns, dass es rund um das Haus sehr viele Sitzgelegenheiten gibt. Positiv hervorzuheben ist auch, dass in der Küche bereits eine sehr gute Grundausstattung an Gewürzen, Olivenöl etc. vorhanden war, so dass man bei dem ersten Großeinkauf nicht bei "Null" anfing. Bis Moncarpacho, Fuzeta und Olhao sind es nur wenige Autominuten. Aufgrund der Lage ist ein Mietwagen oder eigener PKW aber erforderlich, da fußläufig weder Einkaufsmöglichkeiten noch Restaurants zu erreichen sind. Die Klimaanlagen (die u. E. im Sommer in Südportugal erforderlich ist) funktionierteneinwandfrei. Check-in und check-out waren unproblematisch. Zwei Kleinigkeiten gab es, die uns etwas gestört haben: Es gibt in dem Haus keine Kleiderschränke (Schlafzimmer unten). In den oberen Schlafzimmer war der vorhandene Kleiderschrank bereits belegt. Schade fanden wir auch, dass der eigentlich vorhandene gemauerte Holzkohlegrill nicht als solcher genutzt werden kann. Es wurde uns aber als Alternative ein Elektrogrill zur Verfügung gestellt. Zudem hatten die Vormieter einen kleinen Holzkohlestandgrill zurück gelassen, der ebenfalls genutzt werden konnte (der für das Zubereiten von Gerichten für fünf Personen im Grunde genommen aber zu klein war). Insgesamt haben wir den Aufenthalt in der Unterkunft sehr genossen.

Logement bien équipé.

La maison est réellement équipée pour y vivre. Il n'y manque rien. Il ya toute la vaisselle pour de nombreuses personnes. La coutume est de laisser le trop acheté pour les suivants. Annelies est très accueillante et disponible. La voiture est à l'abri à l'intérieur de la grande propriété. Un jardinier et un nettoyeur de piscine sont passés une fois en 10 jours et sont restés très discrets. Les 2 visites ont bien été annoncées par sms. Très bonne literie. Ancien bâtiment non conçu pour aller facilement de la cuisine sur la terrasse, mais ce n'est qu'un petit inconvénient.

Traumurlaub

Für uns war der gesamte Urlaub perfekt, da wir den einsamen und ländlichen Charakter mit Hundegebell in der Nacht und krähenden Hähnen am Tag sehr lieben.
