Previous visitors comments: 'Just to let you know we had an excellent week in Praia D'El Rey. Your travel directions, restaurant/food guides were superb and the area was as good as I had heard. The weather and surf spoilt us all week, the villa was perfect and it was shame to spend such little time there.'
'Just wanted to say thanks for the stay in the villa. It was a beautiful place and we all had a fantastic time.'
'It was just right for us and the children. Your managing agents had provided us with exactly the cot and highchair we would have wished for - thank you very much indeed ! The house was immaculate when we took it over. The welcome pack was excellent.'

Uncomfortable house lacking in soul.
I wasn't going to write about our stay in this town house but when I came to book next year's holiday I realised just how heavily we all rely on these reviews. The house was spacious and well laid out but it was not well maintained. The locks in the bathrooms did not work, light bulbs were missing, the freezer needed defrosting so badly we couldn't use it. The bedding was covered in marks with the pillows being particularly bad some with mildew spots. The house could do with a deep clean. There was no welcome pack i.e details of the surrounding area and instructions on how to use the various appliances etc. Indeed nobody contacted us at all, we were totally on our own. Outside was no better. The barbecue was covered in grease and the remnants from the previous barbecue (whenever that was). There were only two sunbeds and neither had cushions. The communal pool was freezing..

Very bad experience with the manager
My previous appreciation has been removed... I wonder why... The place is very nice but the management of this house is a nightmare.
We arrived at the house and the cleaning was not made at all. We lost the day of renting and could not have diner at home until they finish cleaning. They suggested to pay us the restaurant and have booked on their own the restaurant of their choice (we even did not know which restaurants were around and which prices they was offering). They have accepted by email the bill and asked us to be provided with the contact details of our bank. This was in August. Now, we are still expecting to be provided with the repayment.
For our departure, we have been told that we could leave at 14pm and finally at 21h41 you informed us that we had to leave by 10am. I answered at 22h57 that it was very short notice and that we have not prepared our luggage's because they said 14 pm. Finally, we left at 11am which is very good.

Golf in may 2015
We are eight men (+ 55) from Sweden that traveled for the first time to Praia del Rey in May 2014. And we come to exactly the right place. The house was welcoming, clean and with a fantastic view over 10 fairway of Praia part Rey Golf course.
All of ours expectations on the house, golf-courses and the weather was met and we will be back next spring.

Ein Haus wo man sich sofort wie zu hause fühlt
wir sind zwei Familien mit jeweils 2 Kindern,in dem sehr schönen geräumigen Haus ist ausreichend Platz für 8 Personen . Für die Kinder war natürlich der riesige Pool das
schönste ,den auch wir Erwachsenen ausgiebig nutzten. Die Terasse mit Grill und Garten ist ebenfalls herrlich zum Entspannen und Relaxen geeignet.Den Strand erreicht man zu
Fuß in wenigen Minuten. Als Einkaufsmöglichkeit nutzten wir den Supermarkt in
Peniche,die Stadt erreicht man mit dem Auto in ca. 20 min.
Der Kontakt mit dem Hauseigentümer funktionierte wunderbar.
Also rundum war es für uns alle eine Superwoche an die wir uns noch lange erinnern werden.

Amazing villa...amazing owners
This is a brilliant villa in a fantastic location. It is even better that what you see in the pictures and the description.
Where shall I start???
The villa is very spacious and really has everything you could wish for. When we arrived it was spotlessly clean and very welcoming. The tea, coffee, milk, bread, fruit, butter etc were very much appreciated on arrival.
The views of the golf course are fantastic and you can spend many hours watching the great, the good and the awful players making their way around the course.
The pool area is also very good. It was so clean and the pool in enormous (similar size to our leisure centre at home!). Even when we visited in August it was very quiet and you felt like it was a private...rather than shared pool.
The location on the PdR resort is also one of the best. Beware many other villas on this complex are a long way from the hotel, the beach and the golf. THIS villa on the other hand is right in the middle of everything and you can easily walk anywhere in 3-5 minutes.
We have never booked a "town house" or "shared pool" before but we honestly felt that this was 99% as good. The level of privacy is high and the location is very private.
FINALLY...the owners (Catrina and Fergus) could not have been more polite, friendly and helpful. It made a big difference to know they were interested in us having a great holiday.
For golfers....use the clubs in the villa if they are available. Book the T times via the web not in the shop and you save about 30%. If you want to play 3-4 holes in the evening that should not be a problem :)
For teenagers....there is a small bar on site (Zanzibar) which the kids liked but it is expensive at 6-8 euros/drink. Not much else for kids to do unless you join up at hotel.
We have visited lots of villas in lots of countries. This is one of the nicest for all the reasons stated above.
Thanks a lot

Golfing holiday in April '09
Five of us, all ladies, had a great stay at this property - we liked it so much that this is our second visit. It is in a lovely location overlooking the 10th fairway of Praia del Rey Golf course and has a shared pool. Unfortunately it was not used this year as it was a bit cold. There seemed to be no-one else nearby and it was extremely quiet. The house had all mod cons and is nicely decorated and very comfortable to lounge around in and watch dvd's and the news etc.
It is an excellent place to stay for golfers as we drove to Golden Eagle where we had two rounds and to Bom Sucesso which is a new golf course 10 minutes north of Praia where we had one round. The golf at Praia itself can be rather slow, we got entangled in a roll up of mens foursomes who seemed not to use the fairways at all - times should be chosen fairly carefully. Our second round at Praia was clutter free as we started out in the rain.
Having looked at Praia on Google Earth it was interesting to see the landscape and make a good choice of places to visit and the beaches were lovely to walk - we found one beach just north of Peniche which seemed to be the surfers paradise - I have never seen so many black suited people bobbing around in the water and the waves were spectacular.
Having golfed together for several years now we have decided that it is cheaper to book you own accomodation and flights and book the golf though an agency - divided by five of us we get much better value.
Upon arrival at the house all beds were made up and there were plenty of towels and a welcome pack of food and essentials which was greatly appreciated.
We have recommended other golfing friends.
