Sam, Norfork: 'First time to Portugal and to a villa. Alimas passed all expectations. The kids loved the pool, and we enjoyed the peace and quiet, along with the views. The surrounding beaches were great and not busy, would go again, no problems.' Andrew, Leeds: 'The villa was superbly located; close enough to walk into a village with all amenities but far enough away from traffic & beach noise to enjoy quiet seclusion. Villa had everything we needed and several days we were happy spending all day just going in and out of the pool !' Angela, Kings Lynn: 'We stayed at this gorgeous villa, the last week of June and first week of July. The villa is totally stunning, with beautiful views of the ocean from the upper balcony and the newly added air conditioning was great. Having your own pool is such a bonus, and I think every day of our stay we had at least one dip ! Praia de Luz is a lovely quiet town, with lots of great restaurants and some lovely shopping boutiques.'
Privacy but walking distance to town

My wife and I and two daughters (ages 19 and 22) stayed for a week after they had both just finished exams. The villa accommodation is very good. The pool is large and totally private and is surrounded by a lovely garden containing beautiful trees and shrubs. It is deep which was great for us, but may not be ideal for a family with toddlers who can't swim. The balcony provides excellent views and usually a cooling breeze.
It is an easy walk down into Praia da Luz, although a little more effort is needed back up the hill! So a very tranquil location, but a car is not needed if you want to visit a restaurant in the evening.
I would recommend a car to explore the western Algarve and take trips into Lagos which is very close.
The administration and organisation were superb and there are very helpful information packs both in the villa and on the web.

Owner's Response: Thanks for the review. A quick note about the pool depth: It is about 2.3m (7 1/2ft) in the deep end and 1.1m (3 1/2ft) in the shallow end near the wide steps.

We stayed at Casa Alimas over the xmas/New year period 08/09 and had a fantasic time. The Villa is a beauty and was very well kept. It had everything we needed and a fantastic second floor deck with views out over the sea. Very relaxing place to stay in winter or summer. Good times!

Casa Alimas is in a superb position in Luz - within easy walking of the beach, shops and restaurants, but in very tranquil surroundings. We found the villa to be well equipped, with just about everything we wanted. Highlights for our family were barbecues on the balcony - enjoying the spectacular view; swimming in the large pool and sunbathing in privacy. The kids loved the widescreen TV and appreciated the toys and games provided.
We've enjoyed a number of visits to Luz and were pleased to see that the resort is now looking better than ever with new pavements and a more 'finished' feel to it. Most evenings we would stroll down to one of the local restaurants - who all welcome kids, or stay at the villa for a barbecue. Luz is a very family-friendly resort, where we felt comfortable - and safe - with the kids.
We look forward to returning to Luz and Casa Alimas next year!

The arrangements and corresponence prior to travelling to the Villa were all handled very professionally and efficiently.
The Villa itself is about a 10 minute walk out of Luz in a very quiet peaceful area. The overall decor was in good condition and the amenities were very good. The view from the upstairs balcony was beautiful and the pool was great - the kids had lots of fun in it!!
We found Luz a little too "British" for our liking and overall we were a little disapponted in the food. Having said this Lagos is only a 10 minute bus ride away and this is much more varied in terms of culture.
The property was cleaned on a daily basis (excluding Sundays) and the maid did a very good job and was extemely pleasent.
We had a great holiday overall and we could not fault the Villa (air conditioning was an essential). We would certainly recommend to friends and if we travel to Luz again we would certainly stay at Casa Alimas again.

we found everything about casa alimas to our liking & needs we often visit this area and we found the location of the villa a nice easy stroll down to the village although a wee bit more challangeing on the way back up from a night out (ha ha) it was spotlessly clean & Marina who looked after the villa was most helpfull,the villa agency was also very helpfull on helping us out on a problem that occured (due to no ones fault,just one of those things that can happen to anyone anywhere where we had no water for a few hours due to a burst pipe in lagos) but the agency took care of us,we would love to stay at this villa again but as there's only 2 of us it would be too expesive for us for aug/sept but we would strongly recommend it

"We hve been visiting Praia da Luz for several years now,but this was our first time at Casa Alimas. The villa is well situated close enough to walk into village, with numerous restaurants and its long extensive beach, but far enough away for peace and quiet. The villa itself is well appointed,well maintained and very clean and the view from the balcony has to be seen! Swimming pool is a good size and the pool area itself is very private. Suitable for all ages, we have three daughters in their late teens who enjoy
the night life available. We are returning to Casa Alimas again this year."
