Great house
Great house for two families, private and well organized maintained.
The house commodities, view and quietness
Check in was confusing, check out was terrible with a group of people entering the propriety. It is unnecessary to say that a check out at 10 am is not a standard in any place and should not go unnoticed. As many as good things the house has ( it does have, although overvalued) this is the last memory we take. We apprecite to be contacted although we will engage in appropriate complaint through official channels.

Superbe villa!
Nous remercions nos hôtes pour leur accueil. Nous avions un peu peur de la proximité de la nationale et de l’aéroport de Faro, finalement aucun des deux nous a gêné, un calme appréciable. Au centre ville, à proximité, on trouve tout ! Encore merci
