Jabulani is a wonderful house on Armona. We have visited the island a few times before but stayed elsewhere, but this time we found Jabulani as we were 7 people and needed enough bedrooms. The house is even prettier and roomier than the photos show. Location is great. A short walk to the harbour and restaurants, but well positioned for Atlantic side beach too. And the shop and playground. House has everything you need to be comfortable. Everything you need to eat in. Lucie was a very patient and caring host to us. Use of kayak and SUP board was amazing. The little beach 15m away from the house at mid to high tide was ideal for evening play and swims with the kids. My only tiny improvement would be I'd be happy to pay a cleaning fee, rather then having to do bits myself...not out of laziness, just that if you have an morning departure with packing/kids it can feel like a responsibility to fit in a good clean out of respect for a great host and lovely house!

Thank you Paddy and family; delighted you all enjoyed yourselves. We don’t often have bookings for seven so pleased that this worked out for everyone. Noting your comments about a cleaning fee, we do actually say in our house notes that you can request such so I will make sure future guests are made fully aware of this as I know it can be tricky getting everyone out and tidying up. Thank you again
It was lovely arriving at our holiday home by boat. The house is in a great position ... off the main path, very near a safe, sandy beach. It is also only 5 minutes from the jetty and so close for the few restaurants and food shops. It has a lovely, homely feel as it is someone's home, not just a holiday let. The inside is tastefully decorated and the outside has a practical, comfortable covered patio and barbecue area. A really unique feature is the roof terrace (couldn't see any other property with this from up there !). Great for sunbathing and fabulous sunsets. Be aware that there is a camping / lodge park next door which may or may not be noisy in summer. We were there in November and it was closed, so gloriously quiet. Overall an amazing stay ... peaceful, uncrowded. Great fishfood at Carlos by the jetty and fabulous service from Jonnie and Sergio. Would definitely recommend this property.

Thank you both for your comments and pleased that we could address the initial issues such that you could really enjoy the house and all that the island has to offer in the quieter months.
Myself and a friend stayed at Casa Jabulani for a long weekend in Ilha Armona in mid October, and were very happy with our choice of rental property. Location - it's a convenient walk from the ferry and small commercial area, but set back from the road so you have privacy from people walking along the main path. A short walk to the beach on the ferry side of the island, and also in walking distance to the Atlantic beach side. Amenities - you can tell that Lucie's property is well cared for and maintained. Fitted out with everything you could need in the kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, we were so comfortable during our stay. We didn't use it, but the kayak that was available for use was a nice bonus. The outdoor patio was delightful to sit and have a morning coffee, or the upstairs terrace to lay out and enjoy the view in the afternoon, which I was advised by another owner on the island is one of the few properties to offer this kind of rooftop terrace. Host - Lucie made sure that all communication was clear ahead of arrival, and our check-in was super easy (even though we missed the 3pm ferry, Lucie was a very gracious host in modifying the check in plan for us). After check-in, Lucie made sure we had everything we need. Inside the house she has provided a very comprehensive guide to the area, and things to know. I would not hesitate to rent Casa Jabulani again, and only wish we had time for a longer stay on the island. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable home away from home on Ilha de Armona.

Dear Amanda, Thank you for your very comprehensive review which was lovely to read. Future guests will certainly benefit from this. I am very sorry that your stay had to be cut short and we look forward to hosting you again either in our apartment in Olhao or back again in Jabulani.
