We decided very last min to go on holiday this year and felt very blessed to find such a wonderful place to stay . A perfect retreat from life’s hustle and bustle the aptly named casa la Paz was spot on. It’s a short drive from Faro airport and tucked away down a dirt road and a semi rural area - very private with views of the surrounding countryside. The house itself was perfect for us and our kids. We spent a lot of time in the salt water pool and loved the peaceful space with the right mix of shade and sun- loved the hammock !! Also a really well equipped kitchen for self catering and we loved playing boules each night .Also enjoyed some movie nights using chrome cast on the TV. There are lovely surrounding towns and markets to visit and the coast is a short 20-30 min drive- Ihla de Armona was the standout beach for us- ferry from Olhão . We also found some fantastic local restaurants within a 5 min drive. The hosts were a perfect mix of engaged and standoff ! The only niggle was the electrics being very sensitive (owner quick to help resolve ) - maybe a storage battery with the solar would fix this .. Overall a fantastic stay thanks again to Tom and team .

Casa La Paz is a wonderful house. You have everything that you need for a perfect Holiday. It is quiet, you have sun all day, but also plenty of shadow. The furniture is very comfortable and the windows have mosquito Protection. The distance to the beaches, restaurants and sightseehing attractions are short. Thank you Tom, Krista and Célia for a Perfect stay.

We enjoyed our stay very much. The kitchen stove, fridge and utensils are to die for. It was very well equipped. The pool was beautiful and Santa Barbara up the road is a lovely little village with a great coffee shop and restaurant. It was hard to find at first and our GPS didn’t help. We met with Brigitte and followed her car. It was within 30 minutes of many lovely spots for exploring. We miss it!

Nice House with a beautiful pool and a well equipped kitchen.
