About this villa rental
Casa Do Capitao is an attractive two bedroom semi detached villa positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a small development in Ferragudo. With a large secluded garden overlooking open countryside and a private pool, our villa sets itself apart from the rest.
We have owned the property since 2017 and have invested in making this our second home. The villa has air conditioning and heating for cooler months, pool heating, Wi-Fi with internet TV, fitted mosquito nets and electric shutters. There are sun-beds with umbrellas and outside tables and chairs. We have also added a traditional Portuguese bbq.
Both bathrooms have walk in showers and heated towel rails, with the upstairs bathroom having underfloor heating and a bath. The light and airy master bedroom has a super-king bed, with sliding doors onto a balcony with table and chairs. The second bedroom has twin beds, with sliding doors onto a Juliet balcony. The modern kitchen Is fully equipped, including fridge freezer, microwave, oven, second fridge for drinks, and a coffee machine.
The property is completely fenced and gated and is accessed through electric gates.
There is an optional additional charge for air conditioning at £85 per week and £125 per week for pool heating. A damage deposit of £400 will be requested prior to your arrival.
Ferragudo is a charming traditional fishing village situated on the eastern side of the river Arade. The village has developed over the years but keeps its natural charm whilst offering all the services that visitors today demand. On the opposite side of the estuary and accessed by water taxi is the well-known resort of Praia da Rocha and the town and marina of Portimão.
Ferragudo offers everything for a relaxing holiday and has an historic central square and quaint cobbled alleyways. The village is very well positioned for shopping, golf, tennis, soft sand beaches and other places of interest and activities. The main beach (Praia Grande) is a10 minute walk and is excellent for children. There are 4 restaurants on the beach. The Nau Bar is open all day into the evening with live music most nights in the high season. Sun loungers, umbrellas, paddle boards and pedalos are all available to rent.
There is a paved footpath from the villa that offers a short cut down to the village road with cafés, various eateries, a general store with a butcher counter and a chemist all less than a 5 minutes walk away. A couple of minutes further along the village is the central square where you will find many bars and restaurants.

The villa was excellent and a perfect base for exploring the Ferragudo area.

We had a fabulous week in Ferragudo. The Villa is beautiful - spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated and in a lovely corner spot; not overlooked and it’s secure around the perimeter so we didn’t have to worry about the children getting out! The pool was great and there were some inflatables too - hours of fun for the kids.
We considered hiring a car but didn’t need it in the end. It’s a short distance to the town / restaurants and only 15 mins’ walk to the beach.
Ferragudo itself we found charming. It strikes a good balance between being unspoilt by tourists but still having everything you need (nice restaurants, a few good shops, boat tours etc).
It was also a great experience communicating with the Villa managers, Rosemary and Nicola, who were on hand to help, and the owners, Paul and Katy, who gave us helpful advice, including the best local restaurants to try. The cleaning lady, Maria, was so friendly too. The lovely welcome and these personal touches were the icing on the cake - we hope to return!

Myself, my wife and my daughter stayed in this beautiful villa for two weeks this July. I have given the villa a 5 star rating and it really is. The villa is beautifully decorated with every amenity you could possibly need when on holiday. The pool area and gardens are fabulous. All sun loungers and parasols are of the finest quality. The location is superb....a 10 min stroll to the town centre. If you're looking for a two bed villa with it's own pool close to Ferragudo town centre then look no further.

From the moment we entered the villa we felt at home. There was everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The bedrooms are light and airy with comfy bedding. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you would need. Outside is a lovely well kept garden and the swimming pool is the perfect size. Your 10 minutes walk from a lovely beach and great restaurants only 5 minutes away. Needless to say we will definitely return. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your lovely villa

We had an amazing stay in this villa.
Such a gorgeous setting with wonderful views of the countryside and so quiet. Within walking distance of town centre and beaches and lovely cliff top walks.
The villa is clean and modern with comfortable beds and furniture. Bathrooms both modern and clean.
Th gardens and pool area are absolutely stunning. We are keen gardeners ourselves and it was such a treat sitting and relaxing and enjoying the flowers and plants.
Thanks Katy and Paul for letting us stay. Communication has been excellent. I hope we can stay again soon.

1. Great location
2. Walkable to many wonderful restaurants
3. Walkable to a small but well stocked grocery store.
4. Beautiful yard with great views
5. Pool is clean and easy to use. I recommend paying to have it heated.
6. The town is small, charming and not over run with tourists.
7. Unless your stay is short, you need a car.
The only downside is the property is devoid of any kitchen food basics. No salt, not a single roll of paper towels, a roll of toilet paper, no pepper or basic spices. In other words, plan on an immediate grocery store trip to a well stocked store.

Lovely house, garden and views. Pool looked good too although we didn't use it. Very well equipped in every respect.

A lovely property in the lovely coastal resort of Farragudo. Ideally positioned a short distance away from the main hub and beach. Pool was lovely. We found it was great value for money. The management of the check in was very professional. The opportunity to pre order some shopping was liked. The only downside from our side was that other than the limited shopping we pre-ordered there were no additional touches e.g. welcome wine, hand soap, extra loo rolls, kitchen roll etc. so found we had to go shopping on the first day anyway! Appreciate it is 'self catering' but we would have preferred to pay a little more and had the added touches. But minor point!

My wife, kids and I had a fabulous time staying at Casa do Capitão.
The villa is perfect, it is beautiful and very tastefully decorated, has everything you could ever want and more.
The highlight for us was the outdoor area, we spent most of our time there offering loads of room and is private with a great view.
It is only a short walk to the town and two main beaches, so a hire car is not necessary.
Thank you to Katy and Paul (owners), Nicola and Rosemary (villa managers), for making the whole experience seamless.
We will definitely be back!

The villa is tastefully decorated throughout, and spotlessly clean.
The garden is beautiful and well maintained as is the pool and surrounding area. It must be said though the pool has no shallow end and is the one depth for the entire length, while not an issue for us it could be a consideration for someone with small children. It is around 5ft deep for the full length.
The communication with the management company was good and Nicola was very helpful.
The location is great and walking to the town is made easier by the footpath and the end of the row. there are a couple of restaurants at the bottom of the footpath within a 5 min walk from the property.
We had a very pleasant stay, and enjoyed sitting the the garden in the evening. The BBQ in the garden is great.

We've just returned from an amazing 2 weeks at Casa Do Capitao. The villa was spotlessly clean, well appointed and the beds were really comfortable. The garden and pool were also great - we paid extra to have the pool heated because it was early in the season and this was the right thing to do. The children spent hours in there! We decided not to hire a car and this worked out fine. We got taxi transfers from the airport, Ferragudo town centre is a short walk away and the beach is about 15 minutes walk. There are several small supermarkets in the town and the nearest big supermarket (Lidl) took about 30 minutes to walk to or we got an Uber. We found Uber was reliable and inexpensive for getting to nearby towns too. Ferragudo is a lovely town with lots of restaurants but without feeling too touristy. The beaches were large, sandy and not too busy (at Easter anyway). We definitely plan to return!

Absolut perfekt!
Wir können dieses Haus uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Es hatte schon mit einer Top-Vorbereitung und Kommunikation gestartet. Alles sehr freundlich und professionell. Paul und Katy waren mega, hatten den Pool vorgeheizt und Ausflugstipps gegeben, Selbst als wir schon einen Tag früher anreisen wollten, war das kein Problem. Auch vor Ort war die Betreuung durch Nicola einwandfrei. Wir haben selten ein so perfektes Haus bewohnt. Die Küche ist super ausgestattet, die Betten sind richtig bequem und alles ist sehr neuwertig. Der Garten und der Pool sind groß und das Haus liegt am Ende einer Sackgasse und ist somit ruhig gelegen. Abseits gelegen fanden wir es überhaupt nicht, zu den Stränden sind es max. 10 Minuten zu Fuß und in die Altstadt max 5 Minuten. Das Haus ist perfekt um verschiedene Küstenorte und Strände zu entdecken und mit Kindern einfach unglaublich praktisch. Wir haben die Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Danke an Katy, Paul und Nicola!

Great experience!
We had a wonderful time at this house on our trip in December; it was very well equiped and furnished, and didn't lack of anything. The house felt very warm and welcoming. Our only issue was the pool's temperature. We had paid for it's heating, but since we were in the middle of winter, it wasn't set up high enough to be enjoyable. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

Excellent Stay
This is a lovely very well maintained spacious property with fantastic outside space.
The house is well equipped with everything that you need for a stay including a range of English TV channels.

Loved our stay and would not hesitate to return should we visit Ferragudo again.

Fantastic villa in a great location
A fantastic villa in a great location within walking distance to both the beach and the great selection of restaurants and bars. The villa had everything you need - a real home from home.

Preis - Leistung stimmt nicht
Es handelt sich um ein schön ruhig gelegenenes Haus, schöner Garten, das auf den ersten Blick schön sauber ist, aber auf den zweiten: Unter den Betten, Tür-Fensterrahmen, Freisitzplattenboden, Polstergarnitur durchgesessen, Elternbettmatratzen durchgelegen, Poolwasser nach Reinigung „milchig“, .....für den Preis .... ?

Amazing villa and location
We have had the best week here. The villa and grounds are stunning. The location was perfect and although we’ve had a car you really don’t need one. The contact with the management company was excellent and it was a nice touch for Nicola to come and meet us. We would definitely stay here again!!

Loved it even more than last year.
A large, welcoming villa, set in beautiful grounds with an exceptionally outside space. We love all the recent renovations and personal touches and feel very much at home here. Great restaurants and a superb beach are all in walking distance. We are looking forward to visiting again.

A wonderful villa!
We really enjoyed our 12 night stay in this lovely villa. We felt at home as soon as we arrived. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, the beds were very comfortable and the spacious outdoor area was fantastic. We had hot and sunny weather the whole time, so we made full use of the pool and had several al fresco meals.
We loved the fact that you can walk down into the village in less than 10 minutes. We ate at most of the restaurants and frequented a couple of the bars. We drove out to Burgau, Praia da Luz and Silves and also took the taxi ferry to Portimao. It felt like our own private ferry, as we were the only passengers on both the outward and return trips!
We have stayed in many villas over the years, but this has been the best, mainly due to the secluded position, the lovely views and the general comfort. We are already in the process of booking for next year.
Many thanks to Rosemary and Nicola for all their help.

Lovely stay in Ferragudo
The property was really lovely and just what we needed. The grounds were beautiful and pool was great. It was in a great location as only a few minutes walk in to town and not far from the beach.
Would recommend.

Stunning villa in a beautiful setting. Fantastic
Everything about our family stay here was ideal. There was excellent communication with our host Katy and the villa exceeded our expections. In a secluded location overlooking the hillside, this spacious villa was beautiful both inside and out. Very clean and well-equipped, Katy provided little touches to make it extremely welcoming. The large pool was inviting and well maintained and for beach lovers, a stunning beach was only short walk away. At the nearby town square and quayside you could eat out in a selection of restaurants (O Canto was fantastic) and take a picturesque water taxi to Portimao (or land taxi). We have already rebooked for next year at this great location. Can’t wait.

Jewell in the Crown (well Ferragudo)
...it was my first visit to the property and having heard lots about it, my expectations were still exceeded.
The property was in a quite cul de sac with gated parking. A spacious garden and pool area, which had views over fields towards to mountains and was not overlooked.
Inside was as advertised and as already pointed out, exceeded the description given.
It was an excellent location for my exploration of the Algarve, which has changed somewhat having last visited the area some 40 years ago, being central to both East and West days out.
The town of Ferragudo, five minutes walk from the property, was unspoilt, quaint and there was lots to explore in respect of restaurants, bars and shops. The local beach was a ten minute walk with great views and a nice beach bar.
I would HIGHLY recommend this place to stay and I will be booking again in 2019, love this place.

Perfect location walkable to town and beach
Lovely well appointed comfortable, quiet 2 bedroomed villa with a well kept garden and pool with beautiful views over the countryside. Easily walkable to the main square full of cafes and bars and to the beautiful beach. Will definitely be revisiting.

Totally Impressed, what a find.
The villa its self is fabulous, wonderful position with a huge garden and pool which could not be more private. Its owners have taken time and thought into its decoration as well. Its location in our opinion could not be bettered, its literally 5 mins walk into the fabulous square of Ferragudo with its range of resteraunts and bars, walk the other way for 7 mins and your onto one of the best beaches in the Algarve, Praia Grande. So pleased we found this gem, we will be back later this year.

The perfect place on the Algarve
Fantastic villa, perfectly placed for a 5 minute walk into the pretty port of Ferraguda with its restaurants, bars and beaches. The new owners have already started to invest in the property and provided excellent guidance and recommendations for a fantastic 10 days. After a day out sight seeing the large pool is ideal for cooling down, and the outside seating area perfect for enjoying a BBQ. Cannot recommend this place highly enough!
