We loved our stay at this property. The house was situated in a great area- lots of places to visit and never far from a beautiful beach! The pool was amazing - our children (and us!) loved swimming every day. We loved watching the sunset and enjoying the view every evening. We would definitely recommend staying here. João was a great host and had plenty of recommendations- thank you!

Before we arrived Joao provided us with full details on directions to the villa, local attractions, restaurants, supermarkets, etc. The villa is very nicely located for peace, privacy and tranquillity amongst the countryside. It is very well equipped with everything you would need for a holiday. The bedrooms are a good size with efficient A/C, the bathrooms are clean and functional and the kitchen is ideal. The outside space is great with plenty of seating and loungers, shaded areas to enjoy a cold drink or full sun if you want the golden tan. The pool is a good size, clean and well maintained as is the garden. Regular visits from the garden/ pool team and cleaner without being intrusive. In almost 20 years of villa holidays this was probably the cleanest, well maintained and comfortable villa. The pictures don't quite do it justice. We would happily return. Thank you Joao

A fantastic Villa in a quiet and beautiful rural location. Whilst set away from the busier parts of the Algarve, with the excellent road network it’s only a short drive to many of the iconic coastal towns and villages. Joao who manages the property was tremendously helpful.

It was everything and more we could have wished for. Not only was the villa just perfect but so was the local town. We ate out a fair amount, we BBQ loads. Hopefully we will retunr shortly.

Very quiet location but the drive down into either Faro or Amicli isn't too bad. Comfortable villa with good pool

We spent two weeks at the villa and it was exactly as described/as the photographs. Only a 20 minute drive from Faro Airport, but the villa is in a very quiet location. Joao, the owner gave us plenty of recommendations for shopping, beaches and restaurants which was so useful. Would definitely like to return.

The property is so quiet and private, with beautiful views, the house designed to make the most of its situation. Shade during the day for the main room and seating area followed by the evening sun (and wonderful sunsets). A 20 minute walk takes you into Santa Barbara and the wonderful La Piazza for dinner - chicken that melts in the mouth and amazing Italian food - don't just take my word for it, check the reviews in Trip Adviser (song writer Ian Gillan's 'favourite restaurant in the world'!). Lovely walking home by the light of the moon and across the field with torches. Great places to visit all around - needed to stay for a month rather than a week! The owner, cleaner and gardeners make absolutely sure you don't have to lift a finger - house well stocked - all made for a beautifully relaxing holiday. Thank you, Joao, and we can't wait to be back!

We had a lovely family holiday in Casa Sofia, it was beautifully peaceful with lovely views - just what we wanted. The villa was very well equipped, the pool was just perfect and Joao the host was so helpful and very attentive. The location was great too, with some great local restaurants and close enough to visit Faro and beaches. It all made for a perfect holiday, and we would have no hesitation in returning.

If you are looking for a very private, quiet and relaxing place to stay Joao’s villa is the place to be. Absolutely beautiful view (you can see the sunsets from here), perfect pool experience, a bbq, everything as depicted online but even better in real. Joao was very welcoming and friendly, always answered very quickly, gave us tips and ideas where to go and what to do and was just the perfect host. Thank you, Joao, for this great stay!

Super location away from noise or neighbours, ideal if you're after a spot of real Portugal, plenty of local restaurants, easy access to the coast, Faro and Loule - perfect in every way. Great for running too, if you like hills!

We had a wonderful time at Villa Sofia. It is so peaceful with only the sound of crickets and a distant cockeral crowing to he heard. Wonderful views over the hills, lovely comfortable villa with shady terraces and a relaxing pool to leap into when it gets too hot. Great local bars and restaurants, coast only 20 mins away with beautiful sandy beaches. Joao could not do enough for us, he's a fantastic host. All in all an incredibly happy and relaxing week. 5 stars for every thing! BN

We have just returned from a fabulous week at Casa Sofia. The villa was wonderful - clean, comfortable and well laid out. The pool and garden area are amazing. We would definitely look to book again in the future. Thank you also to João who is a very kind and helpful owner.

We hebben hier met 5 volwassenen een hele fijne week gehad. Het huis is mooi gelegen op een rustige plek. Het was warm dus het zwembad kwam heel goed van pas. Het huis is mooi en schoon. De douche heeft een vrij hoge rand dus minder geschikt voor mensen die verminderd mobiel zijn. De eigenaar stuurde vooraf leuke tips voor tripjes en restaurants. Daar hebben we dankbaar gebruik van gemaakt. Toen een deur niet goed sloot heeft de eigenaar ervoor gezorgd dat het direct gemaakt werd. Kortom: een fijn en schoon huis met goede service!

We stayed in Casa Sofia for a week from 18th August - a group of 6. The villa is beautiful with a very tasteful interior, stunning views of the surrounding countryside and a fabulous pool. João was very helpful with any queries we had, responding very quickly and making us feel at home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to go back one day!
