Lovely apartment,perfect for a family holiday.

This apartment itself is tastefully decorated,clean and very spacious. We found both the apartment and outside areas very safe and secure for our 18 month old which meant we could relax happily throughout our stay. The garden area gets the sun late afternoon/early evening which was great. The pool area is also very clean and though not huge is just the right size for pool games and a dip to cool off! We really did have a great stay and would definitely recommend to anyone else.

Lovely accommodation

Lovely accommodation, everything was exactly as described. Beach close by. Great for running along the cliffs into the nearby towns. We went into Lagos and Praia da Luz at night and ate out at some amazing restaurants. Only thing missing was a local shop within walking distance. Would definitely stay here again. This place comes highly recommended. Thank you.

Awesome Apartment, superbly maintained property

My wife and I have spent the last 21 winters (away from the Canadian cold) here in the Algarve and this apartment is by far the best that we have had the pleasure to live in. It is well equipped and has everything that one requires for a long or short stay. The patio overlooks the pool and beautiful gardens which provide a splendid backdrop for daily meals outside. The property is immaculate and superbly maintained by Fred and Doreen. We will be back again next winter, I highly recommend this apartment.

Great for family and friends.

The accommodation was very clean, spacious and really well equipped, in fact it had everything that we needed for a 2 week stay. The pool and gardens in the complex were well cared for. We also enjoyed the outdoor space with the balcony on one side of the apartment and garden on the other. It was only a few minutes walk to the beach and there were also very scenic walks along the cliff tops nearby. The whole area that we saw was nice and we were very handily located for easy access into Lagos and the many other beaches that we drove to. All in all we would highly recommend.

Fantastic Apartment

My husband and I spent 2 weeks at this lovely apartment. It is modern, spotless and has everything you could possibly need. The pool is only a few steps away from the apartment patio and has a lovely garden area surrounding it. The apartment is only a short walk to the Porto de Mos beach and Lagos town centre is a few minutes drive away. We will definitely be returning in the future and thank the owner - Gary - for all his help with our booking,

Lovely stay

Just returned from a lovely stay at Casa Ella. The apartment is very well appointed with all you could need including a very well stocked library of reading books and dvds. The outside area is what makes this apartment particularly special. The gardens are well tended and the palm trees offer lovely shaded areas from the hot summer sun whilst watching the kids have oodles of fun in the pool. Would recommend to anyone ... walking distance to the beautiful Porto de Mos beach and 2 lovely restaurants. And just a short 5 min drive to Lagos and local supermarkets.

Another Wonderful Winter in Gary's Apartment

This is our third winter stay in Gary's apartment and as usual the apartment was everything we expected. A beautiful place to enjoy the charms of Portugal. From spending countless hours on the patio enjoying the superbly landscaped gardens to walking five minutes to Porto de Mos beach to have a meal at one of the two restaurants located there. In addition there is a new French restaurant just opened across the street from the complex. The apartment is totally equipped with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. Gary has always been the most accommodating landlord and we have already booked for next winter. We look forward to returning once again to our home away from home. We highly recommend this apartment for either short or long stays.

Nice, modern place which is perfect for family holidays

Casa Ella is a really nice place: modern building with a special garden and pool area, thumps up because it's really well groomed. The apartment is very spacious and well equipped. We did not know before but were happy to get new laundries two times during our 11 night stay. We tried several beaches but the one in front of the door is our favorite for travelling with kids: porto de Mos. If you are ok with someone climbing activity please try Praia de Joao Arens - this one is very special, hidden and not crowded during the peak season. Only improvement proposals would be to install a dishwasher to save water and time as well as a coffee machine, which is missing. Hope we will have the chance to come back again.
