We had a fantastic stay at the apartment. The apartment is equipped to a high standard with excellent facilities and in a beautiful setting. We would like to return.

We enjoyed the garden apartment overlooking the pool and the manicured gardens Very quiet during our stay felt we had the place to ourselves

Beautiful development, excellent host, clean and spacious apartment, nice terrasse.

Our five star rating says it all really and we’re planning to return later this year. Gary is an excellent host who made sure we felt at home during our stay.

Great apartment. Everything you need is there. Definitely would stay again. Just a short walk to the beach. Perfect.

Thanks Gary for a wonderful stay! We enjoyed it and will come Back... All the best for u

We appreciate a lot our stay : The apartment is very nice with all the necessary, a so pleasant pool perfect for my daughters and located as close as we expect to this fantastic beach of Porto de Mos.

Loved the larger than expected apartment and the pool area.

The accommodation was very clean, spacious and really well equipped, in fact it had everything that we needed for a 2 week stay. The pool and gardens in the complex were well cared for. We also enjoyed the outdoor space with the balcony on one side of the apartment and garden on the other. It was only a few minutes walk to the beach and there were also very scenic walks along the cliff tops nearby. The whole area that we saw was nice and we were very handily located for easy access into Lagos and the many other beaches that we drove to. All in all we would highly recommend.

This apartment is beautiful. Spotlessly clean. Has everything you will need for an amazing holiday. This was my third stay in this apartment. Will return again and again Gary Dearden, the owner of this property is a true gentleman.

Myself and my husband had a wonderful stay at casa ella. Gary was very responsive from the start and nothing was a problem. The apartment itself has everything you would need for a comfortable stay, washing machine, hairdryer etc. and very clean and modern in decor. The bottle of wine,fruit and bread left for us was a lovely touch also, we really appreciated it! With the beach a 5 minute walk away and two lovely restaurants close by, it is an ideal location for relaxation. We would 100% return for another stay here...it was so relaxing we didnt want leave!

Great apartment.Very well presented and clean.Great location close to the beach.Would definitely recommend and will be looking to book again.

This was the fourth winter we spent in Gary and Jackie’s wonderful apartment. As usual everything was impeccable, the apartment was well cleaned, aired and shows pride of ownership. In the apartment you have everything you need to enjoy your stay. The gardens were beautiful and well kept. We had many meals on the patio enjoying the sun. The beach is only a short walk away where there are two superb seafood restaurants. It is in an beautiful area of Porto de Mos, Lagos and only a few minutes drive to Intermarche for groceries and then into the city centre. It has become our home away from home. Looking forward to next winter already.

We had a lovely stay with our son. The flat was incredibly clean, homely and very well organised with a lovely little selection of food, wine and water waiting for us on arrival. It is located in a very peaceful area with an easy 5 minute walk down to the beautiful beach, Porto de Mos for beach fun and cliff walks. We will definitely be booking again!

Large 2bed/2bath property,beautifully kitted out with all mod.cons.On the outskirts of town,transport needed into Lagos but bars and restaurant within walking distance.Great to be back here and loved our stay.......would recommmend.

It was a very nice stay in Lagos. The Appartment was very nice with everything what you need. You can travelling very good around the Algarve and it is very near at the beach

It is a great apartment in a beautiful area. The service/housekeeping was fantastic and helpful. Everything was clean and nice. We enjoyed our stay a lot!!!

After reading all the reviews on this property we were so looking forward to our holiday but have to say we were a little disappointed! It was lovely to arrive to a welcome pack which included food, wine & water plus other items. The apartment was clean however there were many light bulbs not working across the apartment some of which we replaced. The apartment was looking tired, maybe due to it being the end of the season but the biggest let down was the sunbed situation. One was completely broken on arrival & a second one which had several cracks in it barely lasted a couple of days. That left 2 beds between 3 of us and due to the fact each apartment has its own beds which you have to move in out of the apartment garden to the pool area was a bit of a pain - plus the sunbed police were on constant patrol i.e. other owners who would not allow you to use theirs! The property management company promised they had ordered new beds; however they never arrived during our stay! The garden areas & pool are beautiful and well maintained. We did enjoy our holiday but small things could be done to improve the experience by both the owner and management company. There is a lot and I mean a lot of building work going on around the area, so there was building work noise throughout the week, Sunday being the exception.

This was our fourth summer holiday in this apartment and it didn't disappoint! We love the apartment as it has everything you would need and is always very clean and well maintained. The gardens and pool area are also very well looked after and it is great being on the ground floor and so close to the pool for our kids. It is a short walk to the beach at Porto de Mos and the cliff walk towards Luz, and we hire a car for going any further. There is a bus into Lagos from Porto de Mos beach which we used on a few occasions for evenings out. All in all, would highly recommend it and the local agents and owner are very helpful.

We spent ten nights in casa Ella Beautiful apartment and location, close to beach. Well maintained pool and gardens, would definitely recommend and hopefully return to

Casa Ella is a very well equipped 2 bed apartment we were very comfortable there and had a relaxing week even though the weather was not too kind sadly The beach is a 15 minute walk away a bit steep to get to but ok If you are keen walkers and don’t mind distance you will be fine but if not strongly recommend that you hire a car as the old town was certainly too far for us to walk but we had a good taxi service so we were happy

Had a great stay at Casa Ella. The apartment is modern and very comfortable. It is very well equipped. The garden and pool area is great for children - plenty of room to play safely. Very good communication with the owner and management company. Hope to stay again one day.

This is our third winter stay in Gary's apartment and as usual the apartment was everything we expected. A beautiful place to enjoy the charms of Portugal. From spending countless hours on the patio enjoying the superbly landscaped gardens to walking five minutes to Porto de Mos beach to have a meal at one of the two restaurants located there. In addition there is a new French restaurant just opened across the street from the complex. The apartment is totally equipped with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. Gary has always been the most accommodating landlord and we have already booked for next winter. We look forward to returning once again to our home away from home. We highly recommend this apartment for either short or long stays.

Fabulous apartment equipped with everything you could need. Immaculate inside and beautifully presented. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. Gardens and pool area lovely and peaceful too making this a great place for a relaxing break. Short stroll to the beach at Porto De Mos with 2 lovely beach restaurants to choose from. WIFI signal brilliant along with Netflix & English TV was an added bonus for the kids!

Really enjoyed our stay in this superb,stylish apartment .The small complex is well designed as the Patio doors open onto a mature garden and pool area .The garden and pool are very well kept and every apartment has their own sun loungers .Prompt response from the owners when booking and dealing with any issues .We would happily recommend .

Just returned from a lovely stay at Casa Ella. The apartment is very well appointed with all you could need including a very well stocked library of reading books and dvds. The outside area is what makes this apartment particularly special. The gardens are well tended and the palm trees offer lovely shaded areas from the hot summer sun whilst watching the kids have oodles of fun in the pool. Would recommend to anyone ... walking distance to the beautiful Porto de Mos beach and 2 lovely restaurants. And just a short 5 min drive to Lagos and local supermarkets.

This was our third summer holiday spent at casa Ella. I think that says it all! It is a great apt and well stocked with everything you need. Walking distance to Porto de mos beach and the restaurants there. Short drive into Lagos and surrounding towns. Great pool area and garden which are regularly cleaned and maintained. We love it!
