Once with a group of adults and again with a family group of 11 including 5 children. The whole booking process and logistics were simple and straightforward, including recommendations for transfer buses and local attractions.

The villa was immaculate, very spacious, beautifully equipped and ideally situated. There is a local shop a short walk away and the town of Carvoeira with its beach and great range of restaurants and bars is only a 15-minute walk away.

The kids loved the heated pool and there are ample seats and loungers in the garden with both shady and sunny spots.

Ray could not have done more to make our holidays perfect.
