There are not enough stars. My experience here for 2 months was nothing short of amazing. The house and property are stunning, with incredible views of the ocean from the roof and the best spot in the area for seeing the awe inspiring algarvarian sunsets. The house has recently been renovated to a very high standard- it was like staying in a boutique hotel with premium details – like rain shower heads, super nice appliances, inspiring decoration and so many extra touches- all designed by the owner herself. The co-working area is great – super fast wifi, computer monitors, printer etc. And there is a wonderful kitchen were so many lovely family meals were made and shared.
Claire the owner is one of the most generous, accommodating and all around amazing women I have met. She goes above and beyond to make sure that every guest is comfortable and getting the most of their stay. She has created a wonderful place that feels like home is very hard to leave! There are so many great activities that she organises from surfing, kayaking, horse-riding, kite-boarding and more to enjoy the incredible location of the eastern Algarve. The location is perfect. You are outside the hustle and bustle of Olhao in the peace of the country side, but within walking or short bike ride to town. Olhao itself is a great place – with an incredible daily fish market, lots of good restaurants and cafes and of course, cobble streets for wondering and having gelato. I will greatly miss watching the sunsets, the weekly family dinners, staring at the stars from the rooftop, yoga on the beach and just a wonderful energy. If you are thinking about booking, do not hesitate!
