Grete
Our stay at Casa Boa Vista in early July was the perfect family holiday. We were 8 people, from small children to grandparents, and Casa Boa Vista was just the perfect villa. Lots of space both inside and outside, and the pool!! We had people in the pool from early morning to bedtime. The house was very clean and well equipped, appliances were new and functional, and whatever we needed was there in the house somewhere. It was very hot (unusually hot) the week we were there with temperatures up to 35 degrees and maybe more, but it wasn’t really a problem. There was a strong ocean breeze during the day which made life comfortable, and we used the air conditioning in the bedrooms through the night. If anything, the living room was too hot in the evenings, but it was not a big issue. The house has a good location, quite private and with a nice country view. We really like the area and the surroundings, with easy access to supermarkets and restaurants and beaches at the coast. The contact with Paula the owner and with Ines the local manager was pleasant and problem free. The property is just as nice as it looks on the website, if not even better, and we would rent it again any day!

We have just had the pleasure of a week's stay at Casa Boa Vista.
What an outstanding villa! The villa is set in a semi rural location and very peaceful and tranquil. The views from the villa are wonderful, so if you want peace and quiet and time to chill and unwind, this is where you should stay.
You have everything you could possibly want - the kitchen has all facilities and every utensil. Rooms are exceptionally spacious and comfortable. We stayed with our friends and loved our evenings playing pool and table tennis in the games room. We did visit the local bistro a couple of times and was not disappointed. The food was lovely as were the owners. The swimming pool was amazing, warm and such a good size.
We have visited Portugal on several occasions and stayed along the coast, but we do not regret staying here in the villa as we felt it was exceptional and we cannot wait to return.

We al loved our stay at Casablanca Boa Vista. The only negative feedback is the lack of a handy shop or bar nearby.

Paul Geo...
Excellent Property full facilities we had a wonderful time if I we were to change anything it would just be one thing and that would be to Install aircon in the lounge

Ruth
We stayed here for a week with our grown up children and their partners . Lovely villa spacious and very well equipped and we all loved the pool and games room . Very handily placed for lovely local beaches in this less developed part of Portugal which we really enjoyed and would return to again .

Tracey
We chose this villa for our honeymoon and can say without exceptions that this was the best holiday we had ever taken. As it was our honeymoon will chose not to go out and explore apart from going food shopping twice in the fortnight while we were there. We never hired a car but used the local taxi service and he was an absolute charm to deal with. The villa is truly outstanding. The pool is heated and lit up at night. There are beautiful scenic views looking out from the pool and a lovely garden area with a BBQ. There is a washing machine and rotary line so it means you can keep your luggage to a minimum. Towels and pool towels are provided. I could go on for ever about this gorgeous villa, we were sad to leave. The air conditioning is on between 7pm and 8am every day but you do not need it on during the day as the shutters keep the inside of the villa cool and there is a lovely breeze from outside. Paula was a delight to deal with kept in contact to provide us with everything we needed for our holiday. Simone the property Manager was also a pleasure, she kept us updated with anything we needed to know. Thank you all for making our honeymoon every thing and more that we could have hoped for. We will definitely be back xxxx
