We had a wonderful time in this gorgeous villa, Casa Dara, just a few minutes' drive above the bay and the lively town of Carvoeiro. Everything was perfect, from the first contact with Susie to our departure. Everything went as smoothly as one could wish for. The house is exactly as described and shown in the photos, but even more beautiful in reality! Everything was super clean! The house is quietly located in a beautiful, upscale villa development. Privacy is guaranteed, as it is a really large property with lots of greenery. The pool cleaning in the early hours of the morning was hardly noticeable, so discreet was the work. The house is slightly elevated, and the terrace offers a fantastic view of the garden and the wonderfully large pool. The house has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, plenty of towels are provided, and you can also use the washing machine if needed. A great living room, a large TV with perfect app functionality and a large kitchen round off the amenities. We felt really at home. We had such a relaxing time, we would love to come back. Everything was perfect. We would definitely recommend it and once again a big thank you to Susie! Super host.
Fabulous property that suited our family of 5 perfectly. Great garden with outdoor seating and great pool. Very enjoyable stay.
The villa was perfect. It was peaceful and relaxing. It had everything we required. The pool and gardens were amazing. We had a fabulous time there.
We have been staying in villas for many years in Portugal and this was our favourite by far. The villa was immaculate, the pool area was stunning and the layout of the house was fabulous for giving us all space but also ensuring we had lots of family time together. We hired a car and it was a very short drive to Carvoeiro and ferragudo. We were able to get to all the attractions very quickly but then enjoy the peace and quiet of the villa location.
Wonderful place, peaceful, serene, beautiful gardens, kitchen was well equipped and Susie was always there when needed, would go back in a heartbeat
