Fantastic spring break
Great property with nice south facing outside areas. The urbanisation is a little remote from Castro Marim and a car is necessary. Easy access to great beaches and the motorway. The area is less well known than some of the Algarve but full of history.

Sehr schƶnes Haus und tolle Lage
Das Haus hat alles was man braucht, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefĆ¼hlt. Von der Ɯbergabe durch das Ć¼beraus freundliche Ehepaar Agostinho und Maria, sie sprechen auch deutsch bis zum letzten Tag hat alles gepasst. Auch die Kommunikation mit dem EigentĆ¼mer war sehr freundlich. NatĆ¼rlich benƶtigt man ein Auto, fuƟlƤufig gibt es keine GeschƤfte, aber mit dem Auto hat man alles so im Umkreis von 5-10 Autominuten. Wir haben uns jedenfalls sehr wohl gefĆ¼hlt und alles verlief reibungslos, so wie man es sich im Urlaub eben vorstellt. Lieben Dank wollen wir nochmals sagen und atĆ© breve.

Entspannung pur
Wir hatten mit unseren 4 Kindern eine wunderbare Zeit in dem Haus mit dem tollen Pool! Was in dieser heiƟen Zeit wirklich prima war, dass es die groƟe gemauerte Ɯberdachung vor dem Haus hin zum Pool gab, so dass wir dort beschattet am groƟen Tisch gemeinsam essen und spielen konnten. Auch prima: separates Apartment oben, also reichlich Platz und: doppelt KĆ¼hlschrank :)) Der Pool ist auf einer Seite schƶn tief, so dass wir alle sehr gerne reingesprungen sind;)) W-lan perfekt, und die Betreuung vor der Buchung freundlich und schnell, und vor Ort auch perfekt: jederzeit (deutsch) ansprechbar, freundlich und hilfsbereit, und uns erwarteten schon schƶn gekĆ¼hlte landestypische GetrƤnke zur BegrĆ¼ĆŸung.

Schƶnes Haus nahe Castro Marim
Unsere Erwartungen wurden voll erfĆ¼llt. Wir haben uns in der "Casa Ilse" sehr wohl gefĆ¼hlt. Hier spĆ¼rt man, dass der EigentĆ¼mer gelegentlich selber sein Haus nutzt. Es fehlte an nichts. Auch eine gute Betreuung durch den Verwalter, der stets Hilfe leistete und zudem gute Tipps gab. Gerne kommen wir wieder.

Ein sehr schƶnes Haus
Das Haus ist sehr schƶn gelegen, Sehr sauber und sehr ruhig, Die KĆ¼che ist mit Geschirr gut ausgestattet. Die Schlaf- und Wohnzimmer sind nett eingerichtet. 2 Badezimmer. Alles ist sauber und funktionsfƤhig. Wichtig ist ein Mietauto, was aber wohl nicht extra anzumerken ist. Es gibt sehr viele Einkaufsmƶglichkeiten in der nahen Umgebung Dieser Urlaub war absolut top. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder hierherkommen.

Die Lage ist auch gut, diverse SandstƤnde sind in wenigen Fahrminuten zu erreichen. Absolut empfehlenswert. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

sitio muito simpƔtico
O sr. Agostinho, gestor da propriedade, Ć© uma simpatia e muito atencioso. Caso o estado do tempo fique mais quente a casa devia evoluir para ter, nos quartos, ar condicionado...pode ficar muito quente Ć  noite apenas com ventoinhas. Para quem gosta de fazer barbeque o facto de nĆ£o ter um (tem apenas fogareiro) pode ser muito condicionante no conforto, mas nĆ£o foi por isso que nĆ£o o fizemos ;) De resto uma belĆ­ssima propriedade.

SugestĆ£o: localizaĆ§Ć£o de suporte de escadas da piscina
O suporte de escadas de inox para descer para o interior da piscina devia estar instalado na zona de profundidade mais baixa da mesma (o que nĆ£o sucede jĆ” que se encontra na zona mais funda). A alteraĆ§Ć£o da localizaĆ§Ć£o desse suporte para a zona menos profunda da piscina iria permitir que pessoas que nĆ£o saibam nadar pudessem usufruir da piscina nessa zona menos funda. Quanto ao resto, nada mais tenho a assinalar.

Gutes Ferienhaus mit angenehmer Betreuung
Haus entspricht genau den Fotos. Liegt in einem ruhigen Wohn-/Villenviertel ca. 5. Minuten mit dem Auto von Castro Marim entfernt. Ein Auto ist umbedingt zum empfehlen, fuƟlƤufig ist keine Einkaufsmƶglichkeit, Restaurant, Stand etc. vernĆ¼nftig erreichbar. Die KĆ¼che(n) sind mit Geschirr sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Schlaf- und Wohnzimmer sind gut, wenn auch nicht modern, eingerichtet. 3 Badezimmer. Alles ist sauber und funktionsfƤhig. Das Haus ist im Prinzip in 2 Wohnungen (EG und 1.OG) aufgeteilt. Auch im 1. OG ist nochmal eine komplette kleine Wohnung eingerichtet. Auf der Terrasse und am Pool stehen ausreichend StĆ¼hle, Tische und Liegen. Sollte es mal ein kleineres oder grĆ¶ĆŸeres Problem geben, kĆ¼mmert sich der Hausmeister wirklich umgehend. Er spricht sehr gut deutsch. Wir wĆ¼rden das Haus jederzeit wieder buchen.

Accueil de qualite dans une maison trĆØs agrĆ©able avec superbe piscine dans une rĆ©gion magnifique
L'accueil offert par Augustino et son Ć©pouse est trĆØs agreable, efficace et discret. La maison se situe dans une quinta calme un peu Ć  l'Ć©cart de la ville. 3 chambres dont une parentale. Tout confort rien ne manque. La piscine est grande avec une partie profonde et une partie non, c'est un vrai plaisir dans cette rĆ©gion ou il peut faire trĆØs chaud. L'Algarve est une belle rĆ©gion typique ou il fait bon se reposer, visiter dans sa partie ouest et dĆ©guster les spĆ©cialitĆ©s et poisson. Nous recommandons ce choix sans hĆ©sitation.
