Obrigado por todo - we had a magnificent week at Casa Sao Cristovao!The only problem is that one week is not enough time. We hope we have the pleasure of meeting again.

The villa was lovely as was the setting. Our whole family enjoyed the
stay there with the only criticism being the fireworks. They lasted for
five days and went off at all times of the day, sometimes every 15
minutes and late into the night which when you have a small baby to get
to sleep can be a problem. I think when the festival is on it would be
good just to let future visitors know. They can then be prepared.

The staff were excellent and despite the sleepless nights we would
certainly think about coming back although avoiding the festival !!

Thank you for ensuring the house and pool etc were of such a good quality.

This has been an excellent place to stay. We have all enjoyed the spaciousness and comfort. We've had a great time playing in the pool and reading in the garden. Thank you for your warm welcome!

We had a great week at Quinta de Nabais - oranges, peaches, and lemons abounded, and the hydrangeas all over Portugal and at the house were in lovely bloom. Francisco kept the grounds looking lovely and was helpful in many other ways. Our group of 10 enjoyed the pool, the pool table, and spent many happy hours eating and drinking at the outside kitchen.

We had a fantastic visit at Casa Roma! The villa is perfectly located for day trips to Villa Praia Ancora, Ponte Lima, Valenca, and Viana Do Castelo. Also loved exploring the small villages and waterfalls around Roma. The owner is a wonderful host, taking time to guide us through a hike in the area, inviting us for a drink, and welcoming us with a nice assortment of food and wine. The pool was also a great hit. Thank you for everything.

Villa Mafalda in Mindalo is a truly wonderful place for families and large groups. It is very well equipped, with a nice pool, games room, large garden and lots of excellent childrens' toys. It is also very quiet, being at the end of a cul-de-sac with woods around, yet only five minutes walk to the shops and 10 to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay, and thank Portugal Villas and the owner for such a great villa.

We would like to thank the owner for the opportunity to stay at his wonderful village! We really enjoyed the comfortable house and garden. We are still inspired by land, people, very good wine and food of Portugal. Your country is most surely the place to recommend to our friend and families to visit. Moreover, we will back as soon as possible!

The villa is lovely. Even better than the understated pictures lead you to believe. Very well equipt, clean and comfortable with personal touches. We particularly were taken with the beautiful garden and all its hidden secrets, perfectly maintained but not overly manicured. The pool is a bit small for 'real' swimmers but suited us and our children's splashing around perfectly. Location is great and we felt the villa's views from the balcony and windows a treat. Close to small shops and cafes / bars and just a few minutes walk to the river and a short drive to the beach or the estuary at Esposende. Eating out was surprisingly inexpensive. I have recommended the villa to friends already...

This was our first visit to this area of Portugal and it combined very neatly with a couple of days in Oporto at the end. The description on the website of the surrounding area is very accurate – if you have a car, you have access to the motorway and lots of very scenic towns and villages, as well as the local beaches.
The property itself was much bigger than we expected – it easily accommodated two couples and a teenager and we all had ample space. It was kept immaculately clean and was very well stocked with kitchen implements etc, which was appreciated. The gardens were a highlight and we had fresh peaches from the garden picked for our arrival – which was a lovely touch. The caretaker/cleaner for the property made us really welcome, and told us about the local festivities which were due to take place during our stay including religious processions, shows and fireworks – a real bonus!

We could have spent most of our holiday by the pool just doing nothing! The area is very rural and peaceful and I went running on the little farm tracks that criss-cross the countryside around – getting a smile and hello from the tractor drivers!

I would throughly recommend this property to anyone wanting a quiet base in which to relax and from which to explore the surrounding area. It is especially good for a large group of friends or a large family.
