This is a beautiful villa, high above Ribeira Brava, without being overlooked. We had three generations staying there and there was plenty of room to have some space and privacy.The hosts are attentive, kind and helpful. They were exceptionally helpful when our daughter arrived, having to have a taxi to the property as the car hire firm had closed before she could collect the car.

The kitchen was stocked better than all other vacation rental houses we have ever stayed in. The hosts were very helpful and courteous. They greeted us when we arrived from the airport and had wine waiting for us. They take hospitality very seriously. Views from the property of the island and the ocean are spectacular. The property is situated so you see beautiful sunsets over the water every night. The place was very clean. It is well stocked with games and plenty of information about activities and adventures and attractions that the island offers. The place is spacious with more than enough room for our party of seven adults. This was the nicest vacation rental property in which we have ever stayed.

Perfect family or couples retreat/adventure!

This is a very special place with views and amenities that will take your breath away! We were all family of 8 (4 couples and it was perfect). Being able to eat most of our meals there inside or outside (December) was a treat because the kitchen was expertly stocked for a family of 8! Ricardo and Zhora were extremely hospitable and even let a private chef (which they recommended) into the house so a birthday meal was prepared for our arrival!

Great first family holiday

Villa Cabouco was a great base for our extended family holiday. We had space for myself and my partner, our two little boys (0 + 3), my mother and sister as well as my parents in law. The kitchen was a great space for evening dining and the pool was lovely after a day out in the hills. Beware the approach road on first visit, however that's well flagged by Riccardo and Zohra on arrival. Would very happily return again!
