Guestbook
Dear Tim, sorry havent got back to you sooner but after two chilled out wonderful weeks its been a bit hard getting back in to the swing of things. i envy you so much owning such a wonderful place, your villa is so tastefully decorated i could write ten paragraphs about individual bits but you obviously already know this so i wont bother. The area is so quiet apart from a very noisy cockerel about six in the morning but after a few days we didnt even notice him. The maid Ana was very helpful but we could only communicate in sign language and lots of smiles but we got there in the end she was a lovely lady. In general we all had a lovely time, the swimming pool for my two grandchildren who very rarely came out only to eat and sleep, the swimming pool and pool table for my niece and nephew who we rarely saw again only to eat, and the whole vila and atmosphere for all the rest of us adults to chill out and relax, which we did every day. In general you will go a long way to find a holiday which can accommodate two under twos, two seven to eleven year olds, a few twenty somethings and four over forties (two well over forty) but your villa offered it all for us and the general feeling is thankyou very very much for allowing to visit your home from home. We all thankyou very much for a wonderful time and hope to come back to you again next year. If you want any pictures for your files we have plenty to offer just let me know. Once again thankyou so much...............Glen
Dear Tim
We had a brilliant time at your beautiful villa, some family and friends called up to us on Sunday and were very impressed, at one time in the afternoon there were 27 people in the villa but there was plenty of room for sunbathing and eating, and still have a homely atmosphere, the pool table was great for keeping the men (and some of the ladies) occupied. The view was breathtaking and we could see Sao Lourenco Church where Bridget got married from the pool area.
Bridget and Nicky had a great wedding day, everything from the beautiful church to the Hotel Quinta do Lago where all the staff were more then helpful, and the food was excellent, I heard the manager brought the last of the guests home in the curtesy bus at 5.30am.
Thank you to Haley for meeting us and all her helpful advice, and Ana is a lovely friendly lady, most days when she came in to clean the younger ones were still in bed from the late nights but she did a great job all week.
Thank YOU for letting us stay at your beautiful villa, I would highly recommend it to anyone and hope I will get the chance to come back again some day soon.
Best Wishes
Ursula
''We found the Villa very good, it was in a quiet location but within easy reach of local restaurants and Bars, the town of Almancil is within easy reach by foot or car and the beaches were within 10 mins by car, The villa itself was very well presented with all the facilities for a group of 12, it was tastefully decorated and felt like home from home. The pool was not overlooked, well maintained and certainly well used by our party, the sun loungers and chairs were well maintained and very useful. There are attractions and facilities within easy reach by car for those days not spent by the pool (Golf, waterparks, shopping and Zoomarine). I would recommend Caso Do Lasco to any one for large family or group of up to 12 adults for a relaxing holiday but with opportunities to get out and about.Gerald "
"We all had a wonderful time at casa do lasco. The villa was extremely spacious even with 12 of us staying there, and it was so nice to relax by the pool without being over looked by anyone. it was very private indeed. I would recommend the casa do lasco villa to anyone looking for a nice relaxing holiday... and for the more active, the beach and water park is 10 mins drive away (the jetski hire at the beach was fantastic). A great time had by all. Paul M"
