What a wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful stay. The house was even more beautiful than on the pictures. Everything was very neat and tidy. We had very good contact with Diana, our contactperson. There were supermarkets and cafe’s nearby.

What a wonderful place to stay. We had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful house, we didn’t want for anything and the gentlemen who owns the villa was positively charming. He took so much pride in showing us around and letting us pick fruit from the orchard. The pool was wonderful and a lovely temperature. The house had stunning views and catered for all our needs and some. Location wise, it ticked all the boxes for us. Thank you for having us!
Nous avons célébré le baptême de ma petite fille dans la famille de son père, au Portugal. C'était l'occasion de nous retrouver en famille et de pratiquer diverses activités nautiques, comme le surf, la natation. Cette résidence était l'endroit idéal pour se retrouver : espace, séparation des pièces, mais aussi lieux de loisir comme la piscine et le billard. Tout est bien fourni dans le logement : vaisselle, modilier, accessoires de toilette, etc.., ce qui est très appréciable pour un séjour d'une semaine avec de nombreux occupants.
très belle maison avec toutes les commodités nécessaire, le propriétaire es très gentil, une vu splendide de le matin sur les montagnes.
Je recommande cette location.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au sein de cette superbe villa ! Tout était parfait ! La villa est immense et chacun bénéficie de son propre espace. Diana la propriétaire et Sergio qui s'occupe de l'intendance sont des personnes très gentilles et bienveillantes. Jouets de plage, parasols, jeux gonflables pour la piscine, tout était réunis pour que les enfants passent un super séjour. Mention spéciale pour le verger où nous pouvions cueillir les citrons,pommes, poires ...
Alt var flott i dette huset. Verten var veldig imøtekommende, det var et herlig basseng, huset ligger i et rolig område og det huset stort, rent og godt vedlikeholdt.
Vi hadde alt vi trengte, og vel så det, og hadde et fantastisk opphold.
Une superbe propriété adapté, pour tous, idéalement situé au calme, l'agence au petit soin, le propriétaire au top super gentil, un vergé avec des fruits frais a consommé sans modération, des vacances vraiment superbe et relaxante, merci au propriétaire et a l agence pour leur gentillesse et les petits soins a bientôt j'espère.
Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine entre amis (3 couples avec des enfants en bas âge).
Les hôtes avaient tout prévu pour notre arrivée (chaise haute, lit bébé) et étaient vraiment à l'écoute.
Le propriétaire nous a permis de profiter du verger sur place.
Très belle piscine, jeux disponibles sur place pour les enfants, BBQ, bref tout est là pour passer un bon moment.
Merci encore!

Superbe villa, d’une propreté irréprochable. De beaux volumes. Nous étions 11 .
Nous avons pu profiter du verger ( jus d’orange frais tous les matins ). Propriétaire très sympathique et discret .
Cuisine très bien équipée.
Piscine sécurisée
Nous étions 12 dont des enfants de 5 à 16 ans et cette villa est juste parfaite! Chaque famille avait son espace tellement elle est grande. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié les jus d’orange frais et les fruits frais le matin grâce au propriétaire qui nous autorise l’accès au verger. La piscine est top et clôturé, ce qui est rassurant lorsqu’on a des enfants en bas âge. La villa est à proximité de petits commerces (boulangerie, tabac, pharmacie) et à moins de 10 min en voiture d’un supermarché Continente. Elle est aussi bien situé pour visiter le Nord du Portugal. Nous avons visité Braga (- 45 min), Porto (1h), Guimaraes (45 min), Aveiro (1h), le grand marché à Barcelos (20 min) qui dure toute la journée le jeudi. Le soir, nous avons été nous balader dans la ville d’a côté (15 min en voiture) : Vila do Conde et Póvoa do Varzim où il y a restaurants et plusieurs terrasses pour manger gaufres , crêpes ou glaces! Et plusieurs bazars à souvenirs. Villa entièrement clôturée avec tous ce qu’il faut pour passer un séjour agréable. Nous avons été conquis. Le propriétaire passe au moindre souci et est très discret et sympathique. Nous avons loué pour 2 semaines et le ménage à été fait à la fin de la première semaine ( changement des draps, des serviettes et ménage général) ce qui est très appréciable également. Je recommande vivement cette villa, vous pouvez louer sans aucun soucis! Encore merci au propriétaire.
My family and I have just come back from a lovely 9 days in Curvos at this beautiful Villa, it was ideally set within a secluded Village however was still easily in distance of the Supermarket and Esposende where there were some Fine Restaurants. The Villa was Fantastic and was fully equipped with everything we needed. We was recommended a local Taxi man Phillipe who was extremely helpful and very reliable when we called upon his service. We will definitely be coming back to this beautiful Villa in the Wonderful Village of Curvos. Thanks Very Much indeed. John & Gang Portugal 2019

Indescriptible, parfait
Villa de rêve avec piscine chauffée.
Idéal pour trois familles, chacun dispose de sa partie dans la maison avec ses propres salles de bain et sanitaires.
Propriétaire super sympa qui nous laisse profiter du verger plein de divers fruits.
A 5 km de l’océan et bien placé géographiquement pour visiter (40 min de Porto).
Je recommande cette villa à tous!
