The house was very nice, I would say even nicer than the pictures! Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. The views were really great! The only point to improve I would say is the directions to arrive to the apartment. Was a bit confusing! But we arrived :)

The villa was ideal for our family reunion. It has a variety of spaces to relax & eat in the sun or sheltered. We appreciated the location next to the natural park. Helen was generous in sharing her local knowledge.

We had a fantastic holiday in the Algarve using Helen's villa as our base. The villa is very nicely decorated and furnished and contained everything we needed for our stay. The welcome pack that was present when we arrived was appreciated and meant we didn't need to rush straight to the shops. The views from the two bedrooms at the front are beautiful, and my wife and I enjoyed watching the sunrise from the balcony. The beach is a 5-10 min walk down through the steps between the villas. The walk back up is good exercise, but may be tougher for the less able. There is a small supermarket in Salema which you could use if you didn't want to hire a car. But I would recommend renting one to allow you to get to the larger towns and supermarkets. In summary we had a wonderful holiday at Helen's villa; I would very much recommend booking it, and would definitely go back again myself.

wonderful place with an awesome view across the bay, perfect for families with kids, well equipt, refreshing pool, quite neighborhood, next to the naturalpark and short cut to the beach, highly recommended place
