    We arrived late in the night and it was dark. GPS was accurate but its an isolated place and at times it felt like we were lost. There are signs on the road so it's all good.

    It's a wonderful, away from the city, quiet place. The warmth and care from the host. It was a pleasure talking about our families, Portugal, the sumptuous breakfast, and the beautiful surroundings. The place has a safe parking spot and a feeling of reaching your own home and sleeping in your own bed.

    Nothing to be honest

    Stacey and Luc are the perfect hosts, 10 out of 10, they made us feel at home. The house is lovely, quiet and cosy. I love the fact that you can use their big kitchen to cook your dinner and eat it outside. The swimming pool is nice and there is enough room for all the guests. The breakfast was amazing, freshly baked bread, cheeses, cold cuts, spreads, cereals etc… and a special mention to the apple cake and lemon cake delicious! A great place to use as base for exploring the Algarve!

    There was nothing I would change about our stay. I could not fault the hotel, it's position or the facilities.

    This is a bed and breakfast situated in the hills above Albufeira, just south of Sao Bartolomeu de Messines. It is ideally located to explore the Algarve, with access to the IC1 and the A12/A22, as well as some other major roads (N270, N124, N125) only minutes away. The owners speak Flemish/Dutch and English as first languages, but between them they can converse in a number of others. They have contacts around the area with tour operators and can arrange some activities on your behalf. Stacey booked us on the boat trip we took with Algarexperience. All rooms are ensuite and arranged around a courtyard pool. There is a BBQ for guest use, and the breakfast room has a kitchen which guests are welcome to use should you want to stay on site instead of eating out at one of the many local restaurants. The owners gave us a list of around 20 local places, and we found many others along the coast. Locally, vegetarians are not well catered for, but there are a number of places in the more tourist oriented spots like Albufeira, Lagos, Guila and Vilamoura which do. That said, we were able to get a meal at any of the places we have been to. There is TV and free WiFi in the rooms, and air conditioning. Breakfast is large and varied, with typical continental offerings of fresh home-baked bread, cheese, cold meat, fruits, boiled or fried eggs on request, juice, copious amounts of coffee and should you want it, yoghurt, cereals and toast. Parking is under a shade so the cars are not too hot to start the day, and they will loan you beach towels and parasols if you need them. You do need a car if you stay here, as it is quite out of the way, but that makes it quiet and understated. It has been a highly pleasant stay for us, using it as a base to explore the mountain areas and the coast alike.

    It takes a few days to get accustomed to the location when it comes to grocery/food shopping or visiting any beaches and/or attractions since the facility is located slightly away from "everything"

    The location is kind of a double-edged sword. The bnb is located quite off the main road thus one absolutely needs a car if one is to get to this place and make a holiday. The flip side of this is that it offers an extremely serene and quiet place to make a holiday. There is no light pollution thus the stars come out in their full spleandour at night. Top it off with a cozy swimming pool and a sumptuous breakfast every morning. Carol, Stacy and Matilda make the place feel like home every time.

    The location is somewhat remote but I was already informed of this during my I.itial enquiry so you do need a car to get around if that's your plan but there are also ubers and local taxis.
