Spacious Traditional Portuguese Villa on Praia del Rey Golf Resort

very spacious and beautiful house-very well organised inside-well decorated- nice area with the pine wood near the beach

very calm

Ideal for family and friends

i recommand

corinne

Destination idéale pour se reposer.

La maison est spacieuse, son histoire et son architecture est intéressante (demander à Mandy) et le jardin est magnifique.

Nombreuses possibilités de visite : Obido, Peniche et les sculptures de Xico Nico au "Fortaleza", le monastère de Batalha et le marché de Santana.

La plage sauvage se situe à quelques minutes de la maison.

Et grace à la proximité de l'altantique, la chaleur est agréable au mois d'août.

Wij verbleven in Praia D'el Rey van 23 juli tot 2 augustus en hadden een topvakantie met de hele familie. De villa is zeer rustig gelegen en omringd door een prachtige en goed onderhouden tuin (zorgt echt voor een wow gevoel bij aankomst!), met vele terrassen, barbecue en een fijn zwembad. De villa zelf is erg ruim en alles wat je in je vakantie zou kunnen nodig hebben is aanwezig : zeer goed uitgeruste keuken, meer dan voldoende ligstoelen, strandspeelgoed voor de kleinsten, een biljarttafel, spelletjes, boeken, wasmachine, etc etc ... De hele villa ademt een familiale vakantiesfeer. De eigenaars zijn erg goed bereikbaar en geven uitgebreide info mee niet alleen wat de praktische kant van de vakantie betreft, maar ook tips voor uitstappen en een overzicht van sport-en andere recreatiemogelijkheden in de omgeving. Strand op stapafstand! Clubhouse voor een snelle en lekkere snack ook op stapafstand. Tijdens ons verblijf was de temperatuur erg aangenaam en het was ook lekker surfweer. Kortom we hebben er heel erg van genoten!

Mandy has been very helpful and kind, lovely hostess and very clear instructions. The house & garden are both very spacious and the kids had a fun time playing! The house however wasn’t the perfect fit for us. We stayed with two families with small children. My family stayed in the downstairs wing where it felt like sleeping in a basement. Very damp and musty. The beds upstairs and downstairs were uncomfortable, the rooms downstairs were very simple. The temperature of the water in the shower upstairs was hard to adjust and nearly burned one of the kids after first being cold for what seemed for ever. Everything including towels etc was old. There were no beach towels. Kitchen very well stocked though. The house is situated on a very uninspiring resort where as we were hoping to enjoy the authentic Portugal. We should have researched the area better. We choose the house because of its character but we might be happier with a slightly newer and more luxury home next time!

We stayed for 11 nights with teenage boys (14 and 16) The layout of the house was perfect due to the peaceful master bedroom upstairs and the boys could close off a couple of downstairs bedrooms and have their own privacy and space .i was concerned due to the lack of air conditioning but the bedrooms stayed cool with only occasional use of the supplied pedestal fan. The pool table was a bonus and the pool area private. Golf was easy to book and played several different 9 holes as a family. Highly recommend Alex surf school in Baleal - can rent surf boards and body boards or lessons. Family restaurants in Baleal and club house in resort highly recommended.Cost of living seemed cheaper than the Algarve and whole area much quieter and unspoilt. Recommend Obidos ( esp the Medieval festival )and Nazarre ( make sure to get funicular railway up the cliff) for evenings out . Would definitely come back! House is historic and we thought beautiful . Not smart or high tech and really only 4-5 Englsh TV channels.Good WiFi and owner Mandy a delight to deal with.
