About this property

Renovated country house with large garden and swimming pool

Two-storey, air-conditioned villa with garden in a quiet and private location in the heart of the Ria Formosa and with good access. Ideal for families with children who can enjoy a shallow swimming pool where children can play in complete safety and adults stand under the shade of a huge pine tree which dominates the garden of the house. The calm and tranquility of the place surrounded by nature is the strong point for those who want to escape from urban life.
A large barbecue is also available and space for outdoor dining.
“Casa Celeste” has become more environmentally sustainable by producing its own energy and heating water using recently installed solar panels.
About 250 meters away is the Algarve Coast Ecovia, where you can hike, cycle and observe a wide variety of birds.

Our overall stay was great! Isabel was so good at coming and keeping the grounds of the property and the pool maintained whilst we were there and was responsive when we notified her of a small problem with the pool. She was very friendly and helpful.The villa was beautiful and had everything we needed. We had a couple of minor points that have not affected our opinion but may be worth mentioning and that is that the beds are quite hard and take a bit of getting used to if you are used to a softer mattress and the fridge didn’t seem to get very cold downstairs.Also, the walk into Fuseta is about 20-30 minutes so worth noting if you don’t drive, however, we were happy to walk to restaurants in the evening and found it cheap to get Ubers back.Overall, we loved our stay. Thank you!

Great for families

Our family group from 6 month old baby to grandparents stayed at the property in June 2023. The property is ideal for family groups - the pool is great for children and was especially welcomed by our 4 yr old grandaughter as was the Wendy house and swing. Isabel made us very welcome on arrival and popped in every couple of days to clean the pool so was always available. There was everything we needed in the house and garden and it was spotlessly clean. It is about a half hour walk into Fuseta either along the road, or by a lovely walk along the cycle path through the Ria Formosa where we spotted flamingos and other wild birds. A great time was had by all and we would certainly come again and recommend. Thank you Isabel and Laurentino .

Wir durften eine wunderbare Zeit mit unseren Erwachsenen Kindern in dem sehr liebevoll und reich, ausgestatteten Haus mit viel, viel Platz und Möglichkeiten, sich auch mal zurückzuziehen, verbringen und kommen auf jeden Fall wieder, wenn wir wieder nach Fuseta kommen!:Wir sind begeistert von der tollen Betreuung, durch die sehr, sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Vermieterin, die alle paar Tage ganz diskret mal vorbei schaute, um Blumen zu gießen, den Pool zu reinigen etc.-es war alles tipptopp, sauber und in Ordnung und es ist nicht nur ein praktisch eingerichtetes Ferienhaus, sondern man sah in jeder Ecke und in jedem Detail die liebevolle Hand der Besitzer:)Kurzum: wir sind absolut begeistert und können gerade größeren Familien plus Anhang durch seine Aufteilung und viele Terrassen etc. das Haus nur wärmstens empfehlen! Wir sind dankbar für die tolle Zeit !

Perfektes Haus für die Familie

Die Vermieter sind sehr zuvorkommend und nett. Das Haus hat alles was man benötigt. Hier gibt es wirklich nichts auszusetzen. Auf den Bildern hatten wir den Eindruck dass der Pool etwas höher ist. Ein Kleinkind darf auf keinen Fall unbeaufsichtigt nach draußen. Nur als Hinweis für Familien. Alles perfekt!

Ausgezeichnet

Das Haus hat alles was für einem schönen Urlaub an der Algarve benötigt wird. Isabel hat uns freundlich empfangen und uns alles Wichtige im Haus erklärt. Der Pool war toll und eine willkommene Erfrischung. Wichtig, es handelt sich eigentlich um ein Haus mit 2 separaten Wohnungen. Für uns war das mit 3 Teenagern perfekt. So hatten wir viel Platz und konnten die Tage genießen.

Schöner Ort mit Mängeln

Der Ort an und für sich ist sehr schön und ruhig gelegen, aber für unsereins zu weit weg von Fuzeta (rund 25 Min zu Fuss). Zudem hat es in der Nacht oft Hunde, die endlos kläffen und morgens um sechs beginnen die Abflüge von Faro..., die man sehr gut hört. Die Aufteilung des Hauses ist gut und grosszügig gestaltet und man hat genügend Platz. Auch der Aussenbereich mit Grillstelle ist sehr schön - bis auf die Stechmücken.... Allerdings waren wir noch nie an einem gemieteten Ort, der gar nichts zur Verfügung stellt - sogar die Abfallsäcke musste man kaufen... Der Swimmingpool wurde nur die ersten 2-3 Tage von unserem Jüngsten benutzt; von einem Erwachsenen einmal - der Chlorgehalt ist zu hoch; wahrscheinlich muss man dies machen bei diesen klimatischen Bedingungen. Trotzdem haben wir die Ferien geniessen können, denn Fuzeta mit der Ria Formosa und Umgebung bietet viel...
