Fabulous place to stay, peaceful location, probably best to hire a car. However Villamoura is only 5 mins away. Gorgeouse pool and bbq area. I came away so chilled after a week here. A big thank you to the owners.

Amazing holiday rental!

My friends and I had a lovely stay at this property recently! It is exactly how it is described and shown on pictures. In perfect location slightly outside of the busyness, but close enough to everything to make it easy to get around. The pool and the BBQ area was a particular stand out. Thank you so much for making everything so easy, we had a great week!!

Amazing family holiday.

We have recently stayed in this beautiful Villa with our family that consisted of 5 adults and one child. The photos of the villa do not do this place justice it is amazingly clean, the villa has everything you can thing of and such much more. The hosts Chris and Leonor can’t do enough for you to make sure your stay is perfect. We as a family do not have any negatives and for that reason we would 100% be retuning for another stay next year.

Perfect Family Holiday

We had the must amazing holiday here. Perfect location, quiet and out of the way of the way if the hustle and bustle but only a short uber ride into the marina. Outside area was the highlight for us all. Fantastic pool, darts, table tennis, basket ball and putting green kept everyone entertained. We loved the bbq area and enjoyed sitting out in the evening playing games in this space. House was very clean and comfortable and the air conditioning in the bedrooms was very welcomed. Chris and Leanor organised our transfers which were great and Super efficient. Great hosts and very accommodating to our needs. We will definitely be back.

Fabulous

The villa is stunning and equipped with everything you could possibly need, even toys and a lilo for the pool. There was loads to do at the villa - darts, table tennis, putting, basketball and table football. The owners are local so provide anything you need and upkeep the pool and garden. We all loved it and couldn't have asked for more. The only downside is the location. It is an hour's walk to the marina so a car is recommended if not essential, although we used Ubers and they were very cheap.

Wonderful holiday

We have just returned from a wonderful week at Casa do Cedro! The villa is spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean inside and out. The owners, Leonor and Chris, are wonderful hosts, thoughtful and considerate and have thought of pretty much everything you need for your stay. The location of the villa was perfect for us, picturesque and quiet, and only 10 euros each way into Vilamoura for 6 of us. We didn't hire a car and used Uber very successfully. The pool was a particular highlight for our children aged 23,18, and 14 together with the table tennis, basketball, putting green and darts. The outside kitchen/dining area is excellent and we made use of the BBQ on the evenings when we didn't eat out. Would highly recommend. Thank you both.

This is the first time we have stayed at casa de cedro and first impressions were amazing. It looked very palatial and beautiful, the maintained grounds were stunning. When we went inside the decor was very tasteful and in a classic Portuguese style. The rooms are extremely spacious and the kitchen was well equipped with every possible appliance. The washing machine and fridge was a well thought out addition to the outdoor area, including the outside lavatory. The main garden area included golf, table tennis, basketball and darts facilities including pool side toys and entertainment. The sunbeds were plentiful and very comfortable. The outdoor pool seating area was a wonderful and comfortable addition. The outdoor dining table provides seating for over 8 people and is the perfect place for the family to gather around. The poolside area even included its own bbq, outdoor sink and outdoor socket facilities. Being higher up and in a more rural location means that it was incredibly peaceful as you have no neighbours. The occasional dogs barking didnt bother us. The toiletries were a wonderul touch and the shower facilities were very powerful and plenty of hot water. Air conditioning in the bedrooms was excellent and the beds were very comfortable. The longest we had to wait for an uber was 5 minutes and it only takes a short ride to get to the marina. We had a small issue one day with a toilet however after contacting the owners the responded immediately. A

Wonderful holiday in a beautiful villa.

We had an amazing holiday which was made even better by the lovely villa we stayed in. The hosts were very helpful in answering all of our questions beforehand which is always reassuring. The pool area was fantastic and we spent many hours both during the day and late into the evening out there. I would 100% recommend the Villa and the very accommodating hosts. 2 tips, make sure you have a car and also visit the lovely bakery which is a 5-10 minute walk down the road for your early morning croissants and rolls.

Fabulous holiday villa

The villa was just perfect both inside & outside. It has everything you need and the beds are really comfy. It is in the countryside but that is the attraction and just a short taxi ride to the Marina….we used Ubers to visit various places and they were so easy to get with the app and the cost was excellent. Leonor & Chris (the owners) were so helpful with any queries we had. I would definitely recommend this villa both for adults & children. We will certainly book again in the future.

Wir haben zu fünft (geplant war zu sechst) in der Villa gewohnt. Diese war sehr sauber und mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht und mehr. Es gab ausreichend Handtücher und die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Auch die Betten waren bequem. Die Villa liegt in einer ruhigen Gegend.

wunderbare Villa

Liebe Leonor Gerne nehme ich mir die Zeit, Ihnen zu schreiben, wie für uns der Aufenthalt in Ihrer Villa war. Wir haben die Zeit enorm genossen. Für uns vier war die Villa riesig und wir denken, dass wir auch zu acht gut zurechtgekommen wären (ursprünglich haben wir die Villa für zwei Familien gebucht). Wir haben die Villa sehr sauber, ordentlich und liebevoll eingerichtet vorgefunden. Alles war sehr praktisch und benutzerfreundlich. Details, wie der Kühlschrank im Garten, der Wäscheständer mit Klammern, die Badespielsachen, der tolle Grill und das WC im Aussenbereich usw. waren sehr erfreulich. Der Pool war immer absolut super angenehm, herzlichen Dank für die Pflege während unserem Aufenthalt. Die Betten waren bequem und die Duschtücher usw. sehr frisch und in genügender Anzahl vorhanden. Der ganze Ablauf von Check-in und Check-out war sehr angenehm und die Infos hilfreich und gut verständlich. Als wir uns ausgeschlossen hatten, waren Sie unglaublich schnell hier, um und zu helfen. Herzlichen Dank nochmals. Das einzige, was nicht gut funktioniert hat, waren die Regenduschen im oberen und unteren Bad. Sie haben sehr gespritzt, so dass wir sie lieber nicht gebraucht haben. Vielleicht fällt das beim Reinigen gar nie auf, deshalb die Rückmeldung. Die Dusche hinter der Küche haben wir nicht gebraucht. Auch der Garten und all die Spielmöglichkeiten, wie Dart, Ping-Pong usw. haben unseren Kindern Spass gemacht. Herzliche Grüsse Lea und Familie

Exactly what we hoped for

There were 6 of us, 4 adults, 2 kids and this was the perfect relaxing getaway we were after. Great outdoor space, pool and sun bed grass area, house had everything we needed, loads of linen and towels, spotless clean when arrived, great communication all the time for Leonor and easy to tell they really care that the people turning up have the best time. Great location just 5 minutes from everything but out far enough to relax and have your own quiet space to chill as you wish. We all really loved it and the kids had a ball in the pool, it was our first villa experience and could have not gone any better, thanks for everything.

Absolutely perfect!

Where do I begin… We were allowed to check In early which suited us perfectly, we were greeted by a beautiful bunch of flowers and bottle of wine to congratulate us on our wedding. The Villa was so beautiful inside and out and very well looked after. The variety of things there for the children was amazing and kept them entertained from start to end. Especially the beautiful swimming pool. Everything really was perfect for us as a family of four and we most definitely will be returning. Hosts offered help for anything we needed and when I bumped in to them outside were so friendly and welcoming. We can’t wait to return.
