Although only 30/40 minutes drive from Faro Airport and some of the beaches of the Algarve, Casa Mack's location in a small hamlet ensures that visitors always have peace and tranquility. The owners, Pauline & Fintan, are 2 of the friendliest and most helpful people you could wish to meet, and are on hand not only to welcome you to their villa but in case any problem should arise during your stay. The villa itself is clean, comfortable and spacious and is an excellent choice for those who wish to holiday away from the busier resorts and yet be within reasonable driving distance of them. There a several good restaurants in and around the area and Fintan will be only too pleased to point them out to you. This was our second visit in 2 years to Casa Mack and if I were to return to the Algarve it would my first choice again. Our 20-years-old granddaughter came with us this time and she would endorse everything I have said. |
