This villa is in the most fantastic position overlooking the country side towards Faro and the sea, sitting on the balcony by the pool is peaceful relaxing and heavenly. The villa is very well maintained and you are well looked after by the maid Maria, who visited often making sure bedding and towels were regularly changed . The locals in Santa Barbara are all so friendly and you can get all your requirements from the local shops. |

A very well equipped and maintained villa with wonderful views over Faro. Loved the peace and quiet of the hillside location, coupled with the convenience of being only a short drive to resorts and... more |

We are an elderly disabled couple, and this was our 20th visit to the south of Portugal. Algarve is an absolute paradise in Spring and Autumn, but this time we stayed for three of the cooler, damper winter months to get away from Canada's snow and ice. Casa com Vista was ideal for this, having double glazing and central heating (we didn't need to use its air conditioning). The villa is on a gorgeous hillside overlooking the village church, and it provides spectacular wall-to-wall views of the ocean some 10km away. The owners, local agents and hard-working maid constantly take great pains to ensure it stays in excellent condition. Rather surprisingly for such a good-quality property, the dining room had no overhead lighting -- so the owner immediately bought a standard lamp. If you're bringing your laptop, your best bet is a wireless internet connection (for which we used a Vodaphone USB), but dial-up service is probably obtainable via the villa's land line. No matter what time of year you go, or whether you're there for a week or three months, Santa Barabara de Nexe is a convenient base for a holiday. Many excellent beaches, golf courses, shops, restaurants, and modern facilities are within easy driving distance. You will, of course, need a car, and must be prepared to drive down (and up!) steep, narrow, twisting lanes between dry stone walls and flowered fields (even in winter). But watch out for rough surfaces -- and expect to find yourself suddenly sharing the road with donkey carts, sheep, goats, ducks and geese... If you're seeking adjacent casinos, noisy entertainment, bright lights and theme parks, you'd do better elsewhere. But Casa com Vista is ideal if you want privacy, tranquility and beauty with all the comforts of home and convenient access to most modern facilities. The villa may be secluded, but in no way will you feel isolated. We're coming back for four months next winter! |
