Guest comments
'We have visited Luz on a number of occasions and this is certainly one of the nicest villas we have had the pleasure of renting.'
'The villa has been tastefully and delightfully modernised. Cool, comfortable, air conditioned and classy. For me - perfectly located, just far enough away from the hustle of the beach if it's busy - and yet only a five minute walk'.
'The terraces are both excellent suntraps and even though we visited in late October, the terraces are sheltered and we were able to enjoy hours of warm sunshine each day.'
'Location wise the villa can't be faulted, a 5 min stroll from the excellent beach and within easy walking distance of a number of good bars and restaurants.'
'By far the best villa we have ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean, incredibly comfortable, superbly situated, very well maintained and equipped with everything we could have possibly needed. The description was spot on and the owner was extremely helpful'.
