What a find - a beautiful villa in a very peaceful setting. Having the owner living next door was a bonus - Manuel made us feel very much at home from the moment we arrived in Guia and it was great having someone with local knowledge to point us in the right direction for restaurants shops and local areas to visit. A perfectly relaxing holiday - bliss
When we arrived at faro we were early, we got our transfer to guia manuel the owner was so kind he gave us a lift to get some shopping we had a look round the algarve shopping center which is great, he picked us up took us to the beautiful villa and very modern apartment the villa was so bright and spacious well maintained a fab big pool i would recommend this villa its in a great location to get around, some great restaurants in guia also a great bakery fresh bread early mornings for the rolls they sell fast it opens at midnight ok on your way home from the bar if you can stand, zoo marine was a big favourite with us all and the beach at gale is great loule market not too far a short drive and albufeira both old and new towns the cocktails are mad. both manuel and josie are great genuine people who want you to have the best time they can't do enough to make your stay brilliant what ever you need to know or want, if they can help they will, ho and manuel is a true yorkshire lad at heart we can't wait for our next holliday visit.MANY THANKS TO YOU BOTH!
This was a great well spaced out villa for families,we stayed with our 3 kids on top floor while my sister's family stayed on bottom floor.my first impression was excellent, everything was clean and well maintained.The top floor had all you needed washing machine, dishwasher, cooking appliances even your own living area inside and eating area outside and in.The pool area was excellent and was cleaned a few times we where there.shops are about 10min walk however the owners live next door and took us 1st day shopping and was no problem taking myself a few times again though out our stay,plus offered us run to beach.our overall stay was fantastic, owners couldn't be more helpful, was lovely and quiet and would def recommend.plus only 10 min drive to old town albuefia.Thank you again for a great time Manuel and family from the Dawsons.
We, 2 adults and 2 children, had a marvellous stay in Manuel de Castros Villa in July 2017. Quiet surrounding, fantastic pool, nice lounge area just outside parents bedroom overlooking the pool. Both breakfasts and a few dinners where spent in the gardens dining area. Walking distance to Guia (approx. 15-20 min walk) with a few restaurants. By car you are able to reach most of what the Algarvecoast has to offer within 30-45 minutes drive - nearest beach 10 minute drive, cave excursion tours (or boat trip to other beaches nearby in Aracao de Pers) 15-20 min by car. Algarve shopping center is to recommend for shopping ( 5 mins by car). Has a food court as well as a very nice sizable supermarket. In addition Manuel and his wife are nice caring hosts who certainly walked the extra mile! Assisted with car rental locally, due to late arrival made sure we had breakfast the following morning and assisted throughout our vacation with insightful tips on day tours etc. Thanks for a fantastic vacation!

We are just back from a wonderful stay at Manuel’s villa. It was just perfect and met all our needs as a family of 2 adults and 4 children. We arrived to a welcome pack which was so thoughtful as the children were hungry and polished off the loaf, cheese and ham which were waiting on our arrival along with other items! Thank you Manuel! The pool was fab and we paid the supplement to have it heated which meant our morning swims were perfect too. The house is more spacious than the photos show with the high ceiling and open plan area allowing a big family to spread out. The double bedroom upstairs has two balconies off it. The sun hits one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. This gave again more space for everyone to find their own private area when needed. We hired a car and this allowed us to see the beautiful surrounding area really easily. We went to different beaches each day and found the Portuguese coastline amazing. We visited a couple of markets and neighbouring coastal towns aswell as the caves at Benegil which were definitely worth a visit! Even though we were only in the villa for a week, it’s central yet private gated location allowed us to maximise our activities very easily with very little driving. Oh yes the shopping centre 5 minutes from the villa was fab for some evening shopping as it was open until 11pm!!! Thank you Manuel and family for a fun filled holiday in your beautiful villa ! We will be back and plan to stay longer next time !!! :)
