Salicos and Casa Luza are in a perfect location and a beautiful home. We spent two relaxing and enjoyable weeks in a perfect home. The reality was much better than the online description. Everything was clean and functioning, the property managers (Bruna) helpful and responsive. An outstanding property.

We hardly ever left the villa
The pictures don't really do it justice. It's an amazing villa with absolutely everything you could possibly need. We were staying with our sons, 8 and 11 and they absolutely loved the pool and then being able to sit inside out of the heat in the midday and play some games. The space worked perfectly for us to the extent that we barely ever left. My kids hate beaches and being dragged around towns, so was perfect.

Beautiful Villa
The property is a modern villa in a secluded avenue about 2 miles from the town of Carvoieiro. it is beatifully furnished with a very airy feeling. The garden has lots of places to sit and the smallish swimming pool is away from the villa down some shallow steps. The pool probably isnt ideal for small children though. The hosts provide very little in the way of basics on arrival, so be prepared to buy things like washing up liquid, cooking oil and toilet paper etc etc. there is a very good supermarket about 1 mile away. A car is essential here for getting about.

A little piece of paradise!
This was our second time staying at Casa Luza, and I can't say enough once again about the property and location. It is a property that checks all the boxes for us. Clean, comfortable beds, fresh towels and linens, and all the amenities needed to feel right at home. The yard has sunshine or shade seating for all times of the day. We used the pool everyday and enjoyed reading on the lounge chairs by the pool. Laurence and the property manager are extremely accommodating and easy to communicate with. Thank you for making our stay so relaxing! We will be back! Greg and Loretta

Perfect Location for Everything Algarve!
Casa Luza is a beautiful property in a quiet neighbourhood. It’s in a perfect central location to all of the Algarve highlights, 3 minute drive to a beautiful beach, the best coastal hiking area, restaurants and supermarkets. An hour to the coast and 40 minutes to Faro. We loved our 2 months at Casa Luza and would recommend it to couples and families.

A nice house in a quiet neighborhood
We spent 1 week in this lovely house. Ideal for a family with 2 children. The house is modern and has everything that's needed. The A/Cs worked very well. The only downside was that the swimming pool does not have an area for small children who cannot swim yet. Also, the team managing the house was very nice, responsive and helpful. We would come back any time.

Our 2nd and hopefully not last visit to Casa Luza. The setting is perfect. Near Carvoeiro and it’s restaurants and beaches and 2 great supermarkets. In a gorgeous area - so peaceful and green. The house and grounds are so well appointed. Just perfect for us. Hope to stay with you again very soon.

Wonderful stay at Casa Luza
Casa Luza is a perfect place to relax, unwind and explore Algarve from. We really enjoyed all spaces within the property - pool, outside sitting area, outdoor dining and cooking space. It has enough shade on a hot day. Interior is equally beautiful with tasteful furniture and decorations and everything you need to feel at home. Villa is located within short proximity to many lovely beaches and towns. Laurence and her property manager were very responsive and easy to communicate with. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We hope to be back soon !

A piece of paradise!
Our stay at Casa Luza was fantastic. The property landscape is jaw dropping! The pool was put to good use, very private setting. The pictures on the site do not do the interior justice. It is gorgeous throughout. Very well supplied with all kitchen needs. Beds were a dream to sleep in. Two weeks was not long enough!

Fabulous villa in a peaceful location
We loved our stay at this fabulous villa which was even lovelier than I had imagined. The villa and outside areas were well equipped and comfortable. We loved the peaceful location yet only 5 mins in a taxi to Carvoeiro and all its restaurants etc. The most beautiful beaches are only 5-10 mins in a car from the villa. Thanks Laurence for looking after us so well. We’ll definitely be back.

Sehr schönes Haus in ruhiger Villensiedlung
Wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt in der Casa Luz. Das Haus ist großzügig und geschmackvoll gestaltet und eingerichtet, der Garten ist schön angelegt. Die Villa liegt sehr ruhig und man ist in ein paar Autominuten im nächsten Küstenort Carvoeiro. Lediglich das Nichtvorhandensein von Spülmittel, Geschirrspülmittel, Lappen sowie Müllbeuteln und die nicht ausreichende Anzahl von Küchen- und Handtüchern für eine gute Woche wären anzumerken.

Merveilleux séjour à la Casa Luza
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans votre merveilleuse villa. Tout est fait pour passé des journées formidables dans un confort exceptionnel où il ne manque rien. Vous avez pensé à tous les détails pour accueillir vos hôtes autant dans la décoration raffinée que dans les espaces de vie intérieur et extérieur. Habitués à venir séjourner à l’algarve depuis des années nous avons adoré séjourner dans votre havre de paix. Votre villa est juste une bulle d’apaisement et de tranquillité qui nous a permis de passer deux semaines en famille avec nos deux enfants (7 et 10 ans) pleine de complicité, d’amusement et de nouvelle découvertes de la région de l’algarve. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir séjournez chez vous ! Merci pour vos prestations de grandes qualités, votre accueil et toutes les informations envoyées en amont de notre séjour et merci également à vos prestataires qui n’ont fait qu’améliorer notre quotidien durant ces deux semaines. À très bientôt

Ein Ort zum Wohlfühlen!
Wir verbrachten Anfang August eine Woche in der Casa Luza und haben uns sofort in der Villa „zu Hause“ gefühlt. Alles sehr sauber und großzügig, die Küche perfekt ausgestattet, die ganze Einrichtung sehr geschmackvoll mit vielen liebevollen Details. Zwei geräumige Schlafzimmer mit angrenzenden Bädern. Perfekt! Im Garten viele Ecken mit Sitzmöglichkeiten, so dass man je nach Tageszeit und Sonne immer problemlos ein nettes Plätzchen fand. Die Lage war für uns super. Ruhig in einer Villengegend. Ein Auto ist allerdings erforderlich. Der Pool liegt etwas unterhalb des Hauses und ist über einen kurzen Weg zu erreichen. Wir haben ihn ebenfalls rege genutzt, allerdings entspricht das dortige Mobiliar nicht ganz dem Standard des restlichen Objektes (etwas in die Jahre gekommen). Die Kommunikation mit Laurence (Vermieter) im Vorfeld war super und auch der Kontakt mit der lokalen Agentur während unseres Aufenthaltes war problemlos (wir/ ganze Gegend hatten an einem Tag über einige Stunden kein Wasser). Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und haben uns gut erholt. Das Anwesen ist absolut zu empfehlen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
