Best stay for a first family holiday.
Our family of 5 just returned from Villa Celeiro and we were so delighted with our choice.
The location is perfect for privacy, nature and quietness but not too far from amenities, beaches and Lagos Centre.
The house is located just a few meters from a cliff known as "caminho dos pescadores" - (Fishermen trail) which takes you to 2 wonderful beaches (20 minutes walk to the left and the same to the right). The view from the house and cliff is stunning! Really worth the walk!!!
This is a place to connect with nature especially if you are looking for a restful time as it is away from the crazy buzz of the touristic madness. We found it especially good at night time when you desire a quiet place to sleep. The natural swimming pool was definitely a pleasant addition.
Simon - our host - and Dona Ana were great and very easy to contact and connect. We also enjoyed Blacky and Dax, the 2 very friendly property dogs. Although they live in the same grounds there was never a moment we felt our privacy was breached.
The house was clean and had plenty of space for the family. It also had everything we needed to self-cater and enjoy our stay.
Lagos is a fantastic place to visit. Great food, clean, safe and very friendly people.
We highly recommend the place and the whole family whished our stay were longer. We are talking about returning with other relatives!

Incredible patch of paradise in Algarves
Our family stayed at Quinta Falesia for a week and loved it. Simon, Jane and Ana-Maria are lovely hosts and their home is truly unique in terms of its natural beauty and proximity to some of the best beaches in Lagos. If you like feeling off the beaten path and close to nature--while still being within 10 minutes of everything you could need--this is the place for you. Highly, highly recommended.

Delightful country cottage
If you prefer getting away from the crush of tourists and get a feel of rural Portugal, then this rustic little cottage, in a shallow arroyo, on top of the cliffs of the Algarve coast is a great, peaceful place to hang your hat for a while. Ana Maria (the on-site property owner) has lived here for nearly forty years and her graciousness personifies the place she has chosen to call home.

I was pinching myself when we arrived. Our little house was private, rustic and full of character.
Location is idyllic. Property was private and interesting. Everything there you need. Bring cds and dvds if you like evening entertainment. We were content with the stunning view, pond full of frogs, dragonflies, swifts flying all around and the sound of the sea and crickets. Absolutely beautiful. Iryna the housekeeper is so lovely and welcoming. Definitely recommend this property to nature lovers who like to get away from it all. Need a car. You can visit a different stunning beach everyday. Thank you Ana (property owner) for all your help with setting things up for us. We absolutely loved our stay.

Entspannter Urlaub in traumhafter Landschaft
Wir hatten zwei sehr entspannte Wochen in der Villa Celeiro. Der Blick von der Terasse auf den Garten und die dahinterliegenden Felder, zwischen denen man das Meer sieht, ist traumhaft. Die Villa Celeiro liegt nicht direkt am Badeteich, sondern etwas weiter hinten mit einem eigenen Garten und abgeschirmter Terasse, so dass man hier ganz für sich ist. Den Garten mit dem Badeteich kann man natürlich trotzdem nutzen, was wir auch sehr gerne getan haben (zum Baden ist der Teich eher für Kinder geeignet, die schon schwimmen können, da man vom Steg aus direkt ins tiefe Wasser kommt). Den nächsten Strand kann man erreichen, indem man direkt hinter dem Haus an den Steilklippen entlang wandert. Für Erwachsene braucht man ca 30 Minuten, mit einem 3 und einem 5jährigen brauchten wir knapp 2 Stunden pro Strecke - ist dann also eher eine richtige Wanderung, aber wunderschön! Mit dem Auto braucht man etwa 10 Minuten zu den Stränden von Lagos und Luz.
Die Besitzerin und die Housekeeper sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und waren immer erreichbar.
Die Villa Celeiro ist sehr schlicht eingerichtet. Die Küche könnte etwas besser ausgestattet sein, das Doppelbett im Elternschlafzimmer ist schon sehr durchgelegen, ansonsten ist die Ausstattung Ok.
Wenn man hier mit Kindern Urlaub macht, muss man wissen, dass in dem Haus einige Treppen und halbhohe Wände sind, die nicht gesichert werden können - also eher für ältere Kinder. Spielzeug war nicht im Haus, aber uns wurde netterweise eine Kiste Legos und ein Schaukelpferd zur Verfügung gestellt, worüber sich die Jungs sehr gefreut haben.
Zum Anwesen gehören auch zwei sehr liebe Wachhunde, die uns, zur großen Freude unserer Kinder, oft auf der Terrasse besucht haben.
Wir hatten hier einen wirklich tollen Urlaub und können uns gut vorstellen widerzukommen. Vielen Dank!

Press pause and rewind.
Take a trip back in time to an era when life was way simpler. Our stay on this rustic farm was as refreshing to the soul as a dip in the cold dam on the farm was to the body!
A great location giving you a sense of isolation but close enough to Lagos for a short hop into town for supplies. Simple accommodation with just the right level of creature comforts.
Thanks Ana Maria for a lovely week. We would definitely consider going back.

Nearly perfect
We stayed at Villa Celeiro for 10 days in spring 2016. It is a beautiful place, especially in this time of the year. A nice house surrounded by a beautiful garden. Quiet, in nature, but only 10 minutes from Lagos and the beach by car. The house has a pleasant atmosphere. The owner Ana Maria is very friendly and helpful. Our kids like the nature and the frogs in the pool, but prefer an ordinary blue pool. Two small points of criticism: the house could have been a little bit cleaner (not the beds, they were clean) and the wifi only works 5 meters outside the house. But I would definitely come here again!

Un oasis au paradis !
Nous avons quitté la Vila Falésia le cœur gros, nous voulions profiter encore de ce coin de paradis. Dès notre arrivée, notre hôte Simon, qui parle très bien français nous a accueillit chaleureusement en nous expliquant toutes les commodités de la Vila. La Vila est jolie, authentique et propre. La terrasse avec vue sur le jardin et l’océan est mon coup de cœur tandis que mes 3 enfants se sont régalés de la bonne eau fraîche et propre de la piscine naturelle. C’est un logis parfait en tant de canicule car le soir le vent se lève et rafraîchit toute la Vila ! Oui, il y a des moustiques qui nous taquinaient la nuit mais c’est la réalité de la campagne en Algarve ! Simon est présent et attentionné, merci encore pour tout !

Havre de paix et de lumière
Nous avons passé une semaine paisible en famille (2adultes et 3 enfants de 7 à 12 ans) dans la charmante villa Celeiro. Le site est facilement accessible, mais très au calme, à proximité du sentier des falaises, accessible à pied en quelques minutes. Le calme est absolu, à déguster au lever et coucher du soleil sur la terrasse. Les enfants ont bien profité de la piscine naturelle, très bien entrenue. La maison est bien agencee, fraîche, fonctionnelle, bien équipée. Le jardin est luxuriant et les différentes parties de la propriété bien espacées. À 20-40 minutes les plages sont intimes et tres préservées, mais à 5 minutes en voiture celle de Lagos est agréable et propre, plus fréquentée. Merci encore à Simon pour son chaleureux accueil multilingue!!
