Villa with breathtaking views over the sea and Faro's valley

The house is spotlessly clean and the views are so amazing! Ricardo wasn't too happy about our arrival time but we couldn't help that our flight landed quite late in the evening. He was really helpful with tips for the area and recommended some brilliant restaurants too. He was really accommodating about our departure time which was so appreciated. The beds are quite firm but the house and view are worth it!

Laura and Ricardo are lovely people; very helpful and friendly. The villa was outstanding, from how clean it was to decor and views. The kitchen is very equipped. We actually said that the photos do not do it justice; the villa is better than it looks in the photos. Everything was perfect, could not recommend enough.

Had a fantastic weeks stay with the most amazing views to wake up to every morning. Villa was stunning and very peaceful, just what we wanted for a quite week in the mountains. The villa is very well equipped with everything you could need. Communication with Ricardo & Laura was great throughout. Would highly recommend, thank you Ricardo and Laura.

We spend a month in the house and everything was fine

We have stayed in many villas in France, Portugal and Spain and Ricardo and Laura’s Villa might just top the lot. On a villa holiday you need a place of your own, with the main facilities all to a high standard - especially the kitchen, living areas and of course the pool. (A/C too if you need it). This villa has all those and then some - topped off with outstanding views from the very large and private pool deck. It is in a fantastic location for exploring the Algarve, and even south west Spain. Fully recommend. 5 Star. Guests will also benefit from the local knowledge and suggestions made by Ricardo of where to go and what to see. Bonus - the evening frog chorus from the pond in the garden and the brilliant stargazing from the hillside location after dark.

Very nice home, well equiped with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Laura and Ricardo were available if needed and were accomodating. And what a beautiful view. I would recommend this home and will return again if we have the opportunity.

Enjoyed a wonderful 1-week stay in this quiet villa which really does have a view to die for ... all the way down to the sea and Faro! Great location to get away from it all but also easy to get to supermarket in Sao Bras and to the coast. Great size pool and very well equipped villa. Enjoyed many evenings in the conservatory watching the view to Faro change as night set in ... quite magical with all the lights after sundown. Would definitely return any time! Special thanks to the kind and helpful hosts!

Such a delightful place. Up in the hills, away from it all. Amazing views. Quiet and relaxing. You certainly need a car - but it was fun and easy to get to discover the area. Problem is finding a reason to ever drag yourself away from the villa and the pool. We will be going back for more! Big thanks to Laura and Ricardo.

Hi Laura, Ricardo Thank you for letting us stay in your amazing home. We had such a great time and hope to return one day. We found the area a perfect get away and could not have found a better location to stay. Your villa was tidy and very comfortable and was well equipt for a self catering vacation. The views from the pool and Sun room were just fantastic. Kind regards Aaron, Kate, Ila and Jabob

Can recommend to any one who plans to visit the Algarve but wants to avoid the over crowding of the coastal resorts. That said only 20 minutes from the airport, but it feels a lot further away. Laura was very helpful and efficient. We are already planning our return, which says it all...
