Incredible Stay in Ferragudo
Words cannot describe our stay at Casa Limone. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The instructions from the hosts were extremely clear on how to check in, where to park your car, and even provided welcome cards in the house rooms with clear instructions. This amazing home is in the heart of Ferragudo. It was walking distance to several shops, restaurants, and beaches. Saturday evening in Ferragudo was surrounded by local music and delicious food. Only a short drive away, we were able to explore some of the most beautiful beaches we had ever seen. All around the home are pictures of local attractions with QR codes for easy navigating via maps (which made planning activities for our trip extra easy). The gorgeous outdoor terrace / patio was the staple of our stay. We enjoyed lounging in the sun, sitting around the massive table for an outdoor dinner, followed by nighttime chats under the stars. The hosts provide an abundance of appliances that bring your stay to the next level. We were able to cook and prepare meals with ease and enjoyed freshly brewed cups of espresso at any time of the day. This home can comfortably sleep 6 people - providing massive rooms with two double beds and two single beds. The design of this home makes you feel surrounded by Portuguese culture and details. Gorgeous Portuguese azulejo titles surround the property, even greeting the guest at the front door. Without hesitation, I can wholeheartedly say that we will be staying at Casa Limone again and hopefully very soon. Thank you for having our group and allowing us to enjoy the lovely Ferragudo!

Nous avons beaucoup aimé logé chez Nina et Koen. Leur maison est meublée avec goût, et non pas de façon impersonnelle comme dans beaucoup de Airbnb. Les objets sont bien choisis et on se sent comme dans une maison de vacances. Le logement n’est accessible qu’à pieds comme indiqué dans l’annonce mais cela permet d’être au cœur du village de Ferragudo, l’un des plus charmants villages de l’Algarve que nous ayons visité. On a apprécié la Clim en cette semaine de fortes chaleurs. Merci à Koen pour l’accueil, et à Nina que nous n’avons malheureusement pas rencontré mais qui répond toujours très vite en cas de besoin.

Waterfront, big terrace, hot tub, 200 m to beach

WOW! The roof terrace and the location of this house is a Dream! The house is located right on the waterfront in this tranquile little village. The ambience and location even exceeded our expectations. We went shopping for dinner at a high quality greengrocery and a butcher just around the corner. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed dinner and a glass of wine on the beautiful roof terrace. Looking out and watching the fishermen return to the quay, we felt like inhabitant, rather than tourists. In the morning we walked to the nearby endless beach and had a swim. Not a tourist in sight! We are already planning to return to this beautiful house next summer together with friends. The house is large enough for friends and family. We will stay for a full week and explore the beautiful surroundings. Booking and all contact with Åsa & Per went smooth and they were most helpful. House were very clean and had nice and new furniture. We truly recommend this house to anyone that wants enjoy local Portugal at a prime location! Enjoy! Warm regards Pia & Mats
