Superb secluded villa
Spent two weeks at Casa Estrela with a family of six. Villa is very spacious and well away from any other properties. The pool is deep with a diving board the kids enjoyed. Spent most of our time here relaxing. Villa has everything you need for self catering. Supermarkets are a 10 minute drive away. Water parks and the coast are 30-40 minutes drive for a day out. If you want a quiet relaxing family holiday this villa can’t be faulted. Lovely views down to the coast. Villa is built to be cool but aircon in every room helps in the hot nights.
Paul the owner was very helpful on WhatsApp. Overall we had a wonderful holiday. Highly recommend Casa Estrela

Perfect luxury villa
Wow! Casa Estrela is absolutely stunning and the photos cannot prepare you for the views out to the sea.
The information emailed by Paul the owner before arrival was very helpful and detailed - make sure to read it fully before arrival for instructions on accessing the house.
The main bedroom is huge, with its own en suite and large balcony. The house is perfect for large groups and we will be bringing our family here at a later date.
The pool is wonderful and set on its own terrace, which gives a nice alternative for meals (a BBQ and kitchenette down here).
You definitely need a car to make the most of the area, as the villa is set up a long private drive. We enjoyed the local beaches and the palace of Estoi and Roman ruins nearby. However, Casa Estrela has absolutely everything you need and you could quite happily never leave the villa
Thank you so much for such an incredible stay, you have a truly beautiful villa. We look forward to staying again!

Amazing villa, so spacious, lots of areas for people to read, sunbathe, chill, play ping pong. Scenic views across the hills and Faro (in the distance). Pool is deep and large and a great outdoor BBQ area with small kitchen and bathroom by the pool. Diving board was a huge plus with the kids. Location is really quiet, peaceful and idyllic location. The hosts were very helpful with restaurant recommendations and information about the area. Wonderful holiday.

Excellent Séjour
Superbe maison, un peu isolée de tout mais très calme avec vue sur la mer au loin.Piscine très agréable avec une belle infrastructure à proximité. Il n'y a pas de petite profondeur pour les jeunes enfants. La couverture wifi est limitée dans les chambres. Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour en famille.

The place was beyond our expectations. The villa was so clean and with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Large bedrooms, great bathroom, amazing outside pool and the view was stunning. A little bit far from the center but this is what you get when you are looking for quiet holidays :)
