A Perfect Short Break
I don’t think my wife and I could have done better than selecting this property for our week in Olhão. The photographs accurately reflect what you’ll find when you arrive. Everything we needed was on hand. The house is cool and airy courtesy of the high ceilings. The house is ideally situated; everything within a short, easy, stroll. It was fun being part of the local community and listening to the sounds of day to day life while sitting on one of the two roof terraces. In summary, my wife and I had a wonderful stay in this lovely house; our only regret that it was over too soon. We will have to return to do those things we never got around to doing.

Claus, der Vermieter, ist großartig: er antwortet auf alle Anfragen sofort, kümmert sich aus der Ferne, hat uns einen Taxi vom Flughafen organisiert, wertvolle Hinweise gegeben. Das Haus ist sehr schön, schön eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Ein solches Feriendomizil mit einem solchen Vermieter hatten wir bislang nicht: richtig prima

Stilvolles großes Haus in zentraler Altstadt
Der Aufenthalt in diesem ungewöhnlichen Haus war unvergesslich. Das Haus ist mit antiken Möbeln, Lampen ausgeschmückt. Alles sehr sauber , in bestem ZUstand.
Höhepunkt ist das obere Schlafzimmer mit eigenem Bad und Zugang zur großen Dachterrasse. Ein Traum! Die Aussicht von der Terrasse über die Altstadt bis zur Ria Formosa: Überwältigend. Der Kontakt zum Vermieter war sehr freundlich und schnell. Wir hatten bei einem Aufenthalt am Strand von Fuseta den Schlüssel verloren: Es wurde schnell geholfen. Sehr empfehlenswert! WiFi gut, TV nicht.
