“Lovely little apartments”

These apartments are great. Set in an orange grove it is a lovely relaxing location but you can get some creepy crawlies and things being so close to the grove. Apartments are a good size and well maintained. Better for a pool holiday rather than a beach one and I would recommend getting a car for at least a few days and seeing some of the places the Algarve has to offer because it is just fabulous. I went and had a great time..

“holiday”

We have just returned after spending a week at Casa da Horta. We must congratulate you on such a beautiful property and the high standards of the cleanliness and grounds of the whole area. We felt very lucky in finding you on the internet and feel we can recommend you to anyone without reservation.
Debbie in particular is the most helpful person we have met on any holiday taken by any of us. Any request we made was dealt with, as there was nothing which was too much trouble for her to do. Her advice and friendliness created a very happy relationship with all of us. We felt like friends and not guests which is something very few people can achieve with the public. You are lucky to have Debbie who is such an asset working for you. From the time we were greeted to the time we left Debbie was there to make sure everything was as it should be, and with her efficiency it was.
Pat was excellent too. Delivering meals to us, giving us lifts to the restuarant in the evening and bringing us home again. What a lovely person she is. Another great asset to you. May we say how good the food was in your restaurant the best meal we had on the holiday! We are such a mixed group from youngsters to pensioners but the food suited us all as did everything about your apartments.
The atmosphere around the apartments is one of harmony and mutual friendship by all who work there which creates a lovely environment to relax in.

Yours very sincerely
David and Sheila Gurney(on behalf of the whole family.)

“perfect holiday 'geta way'”

my two young children, husband tobe and myself stayed at casa de horta in march for 10 nights. we booked direct with company and got good last minute discounts and free transfers from airport. they accomodated our children with cots, highchairs, microwave etc. everything we asks for was no trouble. the place lived up to its glossy pics on the website. all the staff were excellent. the accomadation was clean, large and well maintained inside and out.
it was great to be able to pick fresh oranges and lemons each morning with the children and make our own juice and smoothies.
the area was charming, true portugal... no posh hotels or bright lights, but lovely walks and fantastic views. nearest beaches were between 15- 30 mins walk, local shops and resturants were lovely. we didn't get a car in the end, we either walked or got taxi, this was fine for us as we love walking however if you dont like walking then i would recommend a car.
overall we had a perfect holiday and we will be returning in sept 2008.
