Hi
This is my third visit to the Casa Mardigras. On every visit the the standards have been first class. The pool and the terrace are outstanding, and as we spend much of our time relaxing in the sunshine this is important too us.
Jamie, who manages the villa, was there on our arrival and the provisions we had requested, including the hire of bikes from the local village were all waiting. We warmed to her immediatley, and she was at the end of a phone if we had any questions.
I have spent years visiting the western Algarve and in many ways feel it has become over commercialised and expensive.
The east side is so different, how i imagine the west used to be years ago. The food is delicious and reasonable, at least half the price of the west. Many of the local restaurents are excellent.
The beaches are stunning, miles of white sand and atlantic waves. Much of the east side is a nature reserve so you have to take a short but interesting boat ride to reach the beach.
To summarise, you can relax in the lovely surroundings of the villa, be in the local village of Moncarapacho sampling the best steak and fish around in five minutes. In ten minutes you can be enjoying a drink at one of the small costal towns watching the sunset. If you feel like a trip over to the west side jump into the car and you will be there in half an hour. Everything you need is at your fingertips. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the villa to friends and family.
Owner's Response: This is just how we describe the villa and surrounding area. We try to be as accurate as possible in everything we say - right down to the quality of service provided by our villa manager Jamiee, who will always 'go that extra mile' to ensure our guests enjoy their holiday.
This review is truly reflective of what we have on offer - thanks so much.
