The perfect villa for our family holiday

The location was central to all of the Alvor activity but not in a way that you could hear any noise from the streets around. The villa was not only well situated, it was also like living in a beautifully decorated millionaire's pad. The rooms were spacious and spotless. The only issue I can think of was that the kitchen table was a bit too near the fridge preventing it from being opened if you were standing in front of it. You need to be stick thin, lol. Rodriego, the care taker, was always close at hand if you needed anything. Altogether, a lovely place!

Fabulous property

The Bird’s Nest absolutely lived up to our (high) expectations. I stayed with a group of friends. It is a perfect location for restaurants, the beach, walking on the boardwalks, and we had no need for cars/taxis (not easy for a large group). The outdoor areas are perfect for catching the sun as it moves during the day, all with plenty of seating/loungers. The property is spacious, lots of room in the bedrooms, even the two smaller ones on the ground floor have good wardrobe space and are perfectly adequate. Bathrooms are designed to a high standard and walk in showers are large. The kitchen must be the best equipped kitchen in Alvor. We were short of nothing! The owners were there to greet us and hand over the keys. They were extremely accommodating and willing to fit in with our flights etc and nothing was too much trouble. Would I stay here again.... most definitely. Thank you for making our holiday fantastic.

What a fantastic property - thank you so much to Rey and Rosario for such a great week..

Complete and utter amazement at the thought and effort that has gone into creating The Birds Nest. The rooms are amazing - the 3 roof areas perfect and the kitchen really does have everything. The bedrooms really did make it a home from home for all of us and everybody couldn't help but comment what a wonderful property this was. The location was brilliant as you are 10 minutes from the beach or 2 minutes from the restaurants and bars in the evening. If you needed escape from the heat - the courtyard or air conned rooms were your friend - and for a wonderful sundowner - with amazing views - you cannot beat the roof terrace with jacuzzi and music and if you are up for it a BBQ. Not sure what TV they have but the picture quality when watching a film on Apple TV / WiFi was surreal.. like watching a computer game it was that good. I really would recommend this place to any groups/extended families as there is more than enough space to congregate / socialise and/or get away from it all. Thank you guys and we do hope to be back again sometime soon... Paul
