About the host

Hosted by Paul Nicholls

Host profile image
Married with two daughters, we all love travelling, especially to sun and sea, and Portugal is such a welcoming country...

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Casa Estrela when we first visited the Algarve as a family in the early '90s, renting it from the family who built it in 1987. We stayed twice more before moving on, but always had it in our minds as somewhere we might one day own. Our dream came true in 2012 - and it has certainly kept us busy ever since...

What makes this property unique

We have been letting the house for seven years now, and the reviews say it all. A peaceful haven, not overlooked, stunning views, a pool and pool house on a separate terrace meaning families and groups can feel like they are having separate holidays in one place. The terraces around the villa offer plenty of shade, and the gardens are a lovely place to relax. Guests can enjoy stargazing or watching the lights of Faro and its lighthouse, while sitting outside at night with a glass of wine - we have just bought a new suite of outdoor furniture to make it an even more comfortable experience...
