Charaktervolles Häuschen mit allem, was man braucht. Traumhafter Garten und großer Pool. Die Verwalterin Eulália war großartig, sowohl bei der Ankunft als auch bei der schnellen Lösung eines technischen Defekts. Für eine perfekte Bewertung würden wir uns eine bessere Instandhaltung wünschen (Duscharmatur, Stockige Silikonfugen, Kalkablagerungen, defekte Sonnenschirme, klebriger Lack auf Tisch, quitschendes Bett, wackeliger Grilltisch, wackelige Toilette, defekter Spülknopf, durchgesessene Sessel etc). Alles nicht schlimm! Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit in der schönen Unterkunft.

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in Monchique. Das Haus liegt sehr schön, die Natur ist eindrucksvoll und der Pool herausragend. In den heißen Nächten war es ausreichend kühl, um gut zu schlafen. Die Kommunikation und das Einchecken liefen problemlos.Hier und da merkt man dem Gebäude und der Ausstattung das Alter an, kleinere Reparaturen und der Austauch von altem Gerät wären hier wünschenswert. Es war aber nichts, was unseren Urlaub nachhaltig beeinträchtigt hat. Wir haben die Zeit genossen und uns wunderbar erholt.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this villa in Monchique, Portugal. The location is truly stunning – perched on top of the mountain with breathtaking views in every direction. It felt so peaceful, yet it was only around 40 minutes to reach anywhere we wanted to go.The villa itself was beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. The grounds were just as impressive – perfectly kept, and a pleasure to wander around. Eulalia, the villa manager, was incredibly welcoming and helpful, which made our stay even more enjoyable.The highlight for us was definitely the pool. It was large, crystal clear, and wonderfully maintained – we didn’t even need it heated in August. Relaxing by the pool while soaking in those views was unforgettable.The kitchen was also extremely well-equipped, making cooking at the villa a breeze. Overall, this villa exceeded our expectations in every way – we can’t recommend it highly enough and would love to return!

The place was fantastic and quaint! A nice drive up the mountain from monchique, the property manager was fantastic. She took her time to walk us through the property and show us around. It was the exact quiet get away we needed, with beautiful restaurants within 3-10 minutes away. The driveway in is definitely narrow, we had a 9 seater van, so we opted to park atop the driveway as the house is at the bottom of a hairpin turn after a steep hill.Other things to note is the house is built into the side of a mountain and is definitely old. Take care when cleaning after cooking. At no fault of the hosts, considering the style of dwelling there were some ants. But it really wasn’t a bother. Simply comes down to personal cleanliness! Netflix or prime did not work on the tv as it is a bit out dated, there were some English channels that had movies on but again it won’t reflect my review as the reality is our time was mostly spent exploring the region. I would book this accommodation again

Heel goed, lekker rustig, mooi zwembad, echt in de natuur. Leila heeft binnen 10 minuten opgepikt op de afgesproken plaats. Ronsleiding door het huis met waar nodig was uitleg. We hebben haar 2 keer nodig gehad en stond binnen 5 minuten paraat en heeft de problemen opgelost. Chapeau. Niets anders dan geweldig.

A piscina é maravilhosa e tem uma vista deslumbrante. Excelente espaço para quem procura sossego e privacidade ( não tive essa sorte pois durante dois dias estiveram a tirar a cortiça dos sobreiros e um final de tarde a fazerem a manutenção da piscina), considero a falta de uma mala de primeiros socorros devia ser obrigatório, necessitei para tratar um corte e não tinha . Deixo a sugestão de terem atenção ao pó por detrás da cama e a decoração do tapete por cima também ser visto pois se não for limpo é um foco de acaros...

Merci à Marie et Pascal pour leur super accueil. Un vrai coin de paradis en pleine nature avec un vue magnifique. Vous êtes à la fois isolés et tout proche du centre de Monchique. Le centre est très mignon avec pleins de bonnes adresses. Monchique est idéalement situé pour rayonner dans les environs. Encore merci !!!!

A beautiful cottage in lovely gardens

A lovely authentic cottage in pretty gardens. A gem to find a rural property within walking distance of good restaurants. The hosts were friendly and helpful. Useful to know... If you arrive after 9pm, all the supermarkets/shops are closed, so get the basics you need or want for the night and first thing in the morning, such as water/coffee/milk before you leave the airport. The pool is a great size with lovely views. The Monchique area is delightful. A lovely holiday.
