Great stay

We had a fabulous stay! Elsa was the perfect host and spent time making sure our stay was comfortable. She was responsive and helpful if we needed anything during our stay. This beautiful home was immaculately clean, spacious, and even better equipped than our own home…and the pool was an added bonus. There were plenty of things to play like the pool table, ping pong table and board games. It is conveniently located within walking distance to the beach and the grocery store. You will never want to leave!

Amazing family vacation in paradise! This is by far the most well-equipped villa and attentive host out there. It is perfect for a beach or hiking getaway. It is meticulously clean and spacious with a game room for all ages. Lots of activities nearby and possible to walk to the beach. Eat in or walk a few minutes to the seaside restaurants. No car needed as there is also a wonderful supermarket around the corner. This villa has it all. Highly recommend. Thank you Elsa for sharing this villa and help in making our family memories! Can’t wait to come back!

The stay in the villa was a dream. The villa was much nicer than in the photos. It was very clean. The location is great. It really is only 200 m to the beach. The hostess was very nice. Responded to requests immediately and answered questions as quickly as possible and offered help. I can only recommend the villa. Any time again.

Perfect, New, Modern, and Great Location

After looking for months for a house at the Algarve, we found the perfect place. This house had everything we needed from a well appointed kitchen to a luxurious pool. All the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and adorned with beautiful linens and bedding. The house was immaculately clean and beautifully furnished. The location was quiet and not secluded. The beach, Restaurants, Grocery stores and much more are only minutes away from the house. The owner, Elsa was always helpful with all information's. If we needed anything, she was a phone call away and always responsive. Would love to come back here. Great for families. Thanks, Elsa, for a wonderful stay !!!

Exceptional!

This property is amazing. The location is fantastic: 3 min walk to the beach. The beach is beautiful and long, you can walk for about an hour to Armacao de Pera, small fishing town. From there you can catch a boat ride to the caves and catch Uber back (10 min ride). The grocery store is 3 min walk as well. There is a great cafe by the store.The house is fantastic. Super clean and equipped very luxuriously. The cleaning service is frequent - we got fresh towels and beach towels every other day. The pool is amazing - consider paying extra for heating - it is heaven!And the hosts: Elsa and her husband are amazing. Very attentive, pleasant and communication was easy. They take great care of the house and the guests. Thank you Elsa for an amazing vacation.

Fantastic

Wow, what a Villa and what a holiday. 8 adults and 2 children. To see their faces when they walked into Casa Corais was amazing. Lovely welcome from Silva and her mother. Location Location, what a location. 2 minutes from a really upmarket supermarket, 4 minutes to beach and what a beach, the most amazing sunsets. The Villa itself is big, huge 4 bedrooms all with en-suite. The kitchen has everything and I mean everything you could want. The games room is huge. The outdoor BBQ is fantastic, cooked there a good few times. But for me, I’m glad I had the pool heated, it made the holiday, lovely and warm even at 1am. Elsa thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful Villa. Our Family will definitely be returning xx

Wow! What a place, what a host.

We just left the villa after an 18 night stay with our 23 month old twins. Before arrival the wonderful Elsa couldn’t be more helpful and accommodating. It’s incredibly tough to travel with young twins yet she sorted 2 x high chairs, 2 x cots, stair gates. Every we needed. I knew when we arrived it was going to be perfect and it really was. Everything is incredibly well thought out and comfortable, a home away from home. The sun loungers are the comfiest I have ever sat on, the pool beautiful, the kitchen equipt. Beautiful beach and shops and restaurants nearby. Gale is the perfect destination and a hidden gem. I could write a dissertation on how wonderful the villa is and how amazing Elsa is. We already are planning to come back. Thank you, we have stayed in villas all over the world and met many hosts but nothing will ever top Elsa and Casa Corais. Love Jo, Sus, Marnie and Juno xxxxxxxxxxx

Five star service

Firstly l want to acknowledge the thoroughness friendliness and professionalism of Elsa. She met us when we arrived and when we were leaving and she was so helpful. The villa is superb. Lounge is bigger than the pics and the ac worked perfectly. Beds comfortable and the automatic shutters on all windows was a great boon. The villa is perfectly located for families like us who don’t want to drive while on holiday. 5 minute walk to one of the best beaches in the Algarve and a similar walk to about 5 restaurants. We went to appolonia for our daily provisions ( make sure to go the shortcut, out the back gate, down the street and across the dirt track brings you to the back of the supermarket). Towels and pool towels changed every third day (cleaners brill). Basement games room was a fab alternative to our nights in and the outside space is as nice as the pictures entail. The best villa holiday we have had to date and we would definitely go back. Thanks Elsa for everything. You are a star ⭐️.

Perfect villa, relaxing holiday

We had a lovely week in the villa, it has everything you need for the perfect stay! We were 2 families so 4 adults and 4 kids and had plenty of room. The villa is a very short walk to the beach and the supermarket is literally round the corner so you can stock up on everything. Lots of thought has gone into the villa, with lots of outside seating, spacious rooms and excellent cleanliness - we loved the little touches such as the shopping bags/trolley - you have thought of everything!! There are a few restaurants within a short walk such as on the beach where you can watch the sun set - perfect! The owner was so lovely and welcoming and gave lots of helpful of advice. Thank you for a lovely holiday

Uma cada espetacular com uma localização divinal

Passámos 10 dias nesta propriedade e não tenho palavras para descrever a experiência que tivemos. A casa tem tudo, uma cozinha espetacular, quartos enormes com varandas e casa de banho privativa. Um espaço exterior onde só apetece estar. Outro grande benefício desta casa é a proximidade de um excelente supermercado e uma praia que fica a menos de 5 minutos a pé. Uma palavra para os proprietários. A Elsa e o Rogério são duas pessoas que sabem receber e que de forma muito discreta gostam de agradar e saber se algo nos faz falta. Obrigado mesmo casa dos corais. Adorámos e esperamos voltar.

Beautiful Villa with all the comforts home thoughtfully for you

We have stayed in several villas but this has been our favourite overall experience. Elsa who owns the villa has really thought about her guests needs in detail. This ranges from the welcome pack on arrival, the loo rolls (replenished throughout your stay) to the number of bikes provided in the garage that matches the number of guests! The Villa itself is stunning, every room beautifully furnished. The beds afforded a great nights sleep & air-con available in every room. Beautiful pool area & we spent most of our time here. The villas location is perfect. A 5 minute stroll to beautiful Gale beach with its beachside restaurants, a 3 minute stroll to the supermarket, a 5 minute walk up to Planet Fusion bar for a bar snack or drink. On previous stays to Portugal we’ve hired a car this time Elsa arranged airport pick up & drop off. I’d recommend this as you don’t need a car to get around the local area & it saves the time & hassle of collecting & dropping off a car which can be a lengthy process. In addition Elsa met us at the villa, gave us a tour, showed alarms etc which was really helpful. Much better then driving to a local agent & waiting until you’re allotted time when you could collect the key. If you want to eat in a particular restaurant it’s advisable to book in advance. We were a party of 5 adults & as we wanted to eat at a particular time or take advantage of a sunset view we would walk down & book a day or two in advance. The weather is glorious. We always go in September just as the children go back to school. We enjoyed temperatures of 26-30* every day. Finally Villa Corais has everything you need for it to be home from home. Sky TV, WiFi, a fully equipped kitchen even pool inflatables!Elsa has thought of everything.
