Fantastic stay in Budens
We had 5 weeks in this super villa. Louise (owner) was so very helpful in helping us prepare for our stay with suggestions of restaurants and other activities. Louise even sent information on the WiFi speed which was really important for me because I had to do some work remotely. The villa was regularly cleaned by the housekeeper, there was sufficient crockery, cooking utensils and cutlery for us as a couple and our two adult sons who visited briefly. The knives were nice and sharp which is essential but not often the case in rented accommodation! There were lovely extras such as heated towel rails and a huge bookshelf with lots of books in English. Parking is easy just opposite the villa which was a real plus. The location is superb, between the eastern and western Algarve so easy to visit all the wonderful beaches. The communal pool was always clean and there were sun lounges available with umbrellas as well. We particularly enjoyed the small local cafe, Vista Allegre. The owner speaks very good English and it was lovely to hang out with the locals. Coffee,pastel de nata and sandwiches were available, all at an excellent price and very good. The supermarket is just 5 minutes drive down the road and is well stocked. However a suggestion for other visitors to the area - we found the meat, fruit and vegetables of poor quality. When even carrots and potatoes go off it’s not a good sign. We moved to shop at Lidl in Vila do Bispo. Excellent quality and prices!

Enjoyable Break in pleasant surroundings
This is a lovely house, very spacious and comfortable. The Algarve is very accessible so being up on the hill is no disadvantage. Supermarket at the bottom of the hill and is well stocked. Salema and Burgau are a short ride away. A very pleasant break and Louise was very helpful.

Another fabulous stay!
This was our second visit to this fab house. The location is great for zipping about to different restaurants and beaches. We love the area and have been coming quite a few years now. The house has a lovely feel and it had everything we needed. We were very comfortable and happy for our 2 week family holiday. The pool is a real bonus and we were in it most days. We have a real soft spot for Portugal and finding this property has made our holidays even more enjoyable.

Great location
We had a fantastic stay. Website does not do it justice. Great location as all the fantastic beaches are just a short drive away. There is a supermarket just at the bottom of the hill. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Relaxing stay in a beautiful house
Just returned from a relaxing, beautiful week. I almost gave a lower rating for the accuracy of the description because the pictures really don't do the property justice. It is a beautiful house in a peaceful (if a little windy!) location. The swimming pool was great especially as, being out of season we often had it all to ourselves. Some basics were provided although no soap which would have been nice when we first arrived (we left ours for the next guests). You do need a car here unless you are very fit as the hill to town is long and steep! The only other thing I would have liked was a bit more information on what was nearby - good restaurants etc. Louise is great and was really helpful with one minor hitch always communicating promptly. All in all a great stay. Thank you Louise.

Amazing holiday
We have had the most amazing time staying here. It is a beautiful house with everything we could have needed. We felt right at home immediately and we really couldn’t fault it. We did lots of bbq’s to make the most of such a lovely home. We are already planning to book again for next year, just wonderful!

Lovely house in Budens.
The visit was for my Birthday and to introduce my son and his girlfriend to the beautiful area around Salema - they loved it (as I hoped they would)! The beach and restaurants are fabulous, and even though our visit was out of season, we still managed to find good food and wine.
