We have had a fantastic holiday at Casa Monica, The host was extremely helpful with nothing being too much trouble. Everything from check in to check out went smoothly, we would highly recommend Casa Monica and the host to everyone. The holiday home is in a complex which includes residents but that in itself meant it was a relaxing holiday for me, my wife and family. We stayed a month which flew by and look forward to being able to go back.

Family holiday

The property offered the perfect base for our family holiday of 2 adults and 3 teens. The pool was great and always very quiet, the local beaches were gorgeous and the villa had everything we needed and plenty of space. Rosemary could not have been more helpful with information and advice on the local area. We had a lovely time, thank you!

Nice modern Villa close to Salema Beach

Really enjoyed our stay for the last week of May. The Villa was roomy (two families with three kids in total), well maintained and ideally close (5min by car) to the restaurants and bars of Salema beach. Our kids loved going through the selection of movies, toys and books that were there and we loved having barbecues on the patio and sitting around the fireplace in the evening. Would definitely recommend this Villa.

For lovers of the quieter spots

Lovely place in a nest of properties I named Melrose Place. Quiet spot for those who prefer less touristy places, but there's plenty in Figueira village all the same - a few nice, simple eateries and for those willing to take the plunge, a spectacular and quiet beach 15 mins walk down a dust track, with cooler water than the nearby beaches. Highly recommended.

We had a very enjoyable holiday. The property very much felt like a home from home, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The swimming pool was fab! We made use of it every day! Rosemary was a delight to communicate with. It felt more like communicating with a friend than a host. We really appreciated her advice re: car hire also. We would absolutely recommend Rosemary as a host and her beautiful home as a holiday destination. Thank you Rosemary

Compact settlement around communal pool in the unspoiled Algarve.

The owners were very amenable and gave lots of advice and information, can't fault communication at all. The set up of the settlement around the pool area is ideal for people with young families or in our case not so young! Great the way the living accommodation is upstairs to make better use of the views and enable you to keep your eye on the pool from the kitchen. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of equipment, crockery, pots, pans, tupperware coolboxes and so on. Located close enough to the lovely town of Lagos to visit as regularly as you would like, but in a quiet rural location, with easy access to lots of sandy beeches with or without restaurants and so on. With access to both the southern and western shores you can always find somewhere to surf snorkel or just relax. Plenty of games, books and DVD, TV WIFI and satellite no excuse to get bored.

Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Es hat uns nichts gefehlt. Danke Rosemary für deine Gastfreundschaft. Wir waren drei Erwachsenen und drei Teenies. Das einzige was uns genervt hat, war das Einkaufen ohne Auto, Das war aber auch kein Thema mit Uber für ca. fünf Euro ...

Geweldig!

Casa Monica is een authentieke Portugese Villa met veel ruimte. Accommodatie was bij inchecken zeer schoon. Uitzicht is prachtig, restaurants zijn op loopafstand. Diverse stranden zijn dichtbij, goede mogelijkheden om te golfsurfen. Wij zijn 1,5 week gebleven met gezin met 3 kinderen (14-17 jaar) en hebben ons prima vermaakt. Ook het gedeelde zwembad is erg fijn. Als je op zoek bent naar een vakantie in een ongerept stuk Europa, dan is deze accommodatie een echte aanraders als goede uitvalsbasis.

A spacious home in the sun.

Casa Monica is a spacious home on a small complex of similar properties in the Western Algarve. There are three generous sized bedrooms on the ground floor with two bathrooms. Upstairs the large open plan lounge/diner has views over the beautiful rolling hills of the national park, with stunning sunsets to complete this idyllic setting.

Casa Monica

We really enjoyed our 10 day stay in Casa Monica. I really liked how the bedrooms were downstairs and the living area upstairs. Amazing view from the terrace upstairs ( especially the sun sets ). Everything was clean and satisfying. The owner was very helpful when we had any questions. We visited many different beaches, mainly on the west coast ( amazing by the way ) and form Casa Monica everything was very close. The pool area was also fun for the kids. All in all we had a very great holiday and will definitely be back.

Perfect location for exploring unspoilt beaches

We had a brilliant holiday staying at Casa Monica. Figueira is a lovely little village and we found it the perfect base for exploring all the gorgeous beaches of the western Algarve and up on the west coast. We found plenty of good places to eat and especially loved the seafood restaurants just down the road in Vila do Bispo. We felt that the rental was good value. The house was clean with plenty of space for our family of 5 and had everything we needed for our holiday. Rosemary, the owner was very helpful before our holiday providing tips and recommendations and was also extremely helpful in helping us to courier a bag back to the UK which we stupidly managed to leave behind! We definitely hope to come back and stay again in the future.

Simply a wonderful villa set in a private complex

I would highly recommend this villa, beautifully kept yet had a homely feel. The complex gardens and pool were kept to a high standard and were very quiet. And if we didn't fancy sitting by the pool the villa had it's own patio areas. The location was perfect for exploring the area by car. Rosemary was attentive as a host, there at the end of an email if we needed anything.

Perfect family holiday villa and location

We had a simply fabulous two weeks at Casa Monica, it was so relaxing and the villa had everything you needed, a real home from home. We really didn't want to leave ! It is a very spacious and airy house, with lots of outdoor space to relax in. The balcony from the lounge is the ideal place to have supper and watch the sun go down. The pool is safe and well maintained and a lovely place to meet other families on holiday. There is plenty of very useful information about beaches, restaurants and local shops provided in the villa and Rosemary was very helpful with any queries prior to the start of our holiday. The village of Figueria is small but there is everything you need, a shop, bar and couple of restaurants. The beaches are truly beautiful our favourite is Zavial a short drive away but you can walk to Figueria beach from the villa in about 20 mins. We would definitely recommend Casa Monica and hope to be back in the near future. The Mercer Family
