Garvão e Santa Luzia Vacation Rentals

"Great place to stay,clean well maintained,highly recommend it, however as far as instructions the staff should be clear about location as the address I was given was not where the place was,not a complain just a suggestion, I would definitely go back no doubt!"

"Not sure where to begin, however this is now a special place to me and my partner. We visited 2 years ago - absolutely loved everything about it and during this visit I proposed to her here. The place itself is like a small villa and the location is fairly remote, be aware the drive up to get to this property isn’t for the feint of heart… especially with a rental car. It definitely adds to the experience of being remote but take your time and it’s not too bad. The room is spacious and the bathrooms are very nice. The showers have rainfall shower heads and there is a window right beside the shower - if you get lucky (rooms 5/6/7/8) they face west, so you can shower as the sun sets beside you. Each room is equipped with an air conditioning unit, so you can adjust the temperature to your liking. Beds are comfy, pillows are soft, nothing to worry about with comfort. The pool and outdoor spaces are what makes this place unique. The infinity pool is amazing and there are plenty of loungers and umbrellas for all. The hike that you can go on is awesome, bring some water and you’ll be fine. It takes you to a very quiet and remote part of a river with the option to kayak/canoe (you have to ask and pay first though). The staff during my stay were all very lovely but there was one in particular that went above and beyond. I forget his name (sorry!) however he was there the entire time we were there and was always smiling and ensured we had everything. Thank you! "

"Good value"

"Great place, loved the hot tub and pool. Need more hooks for towels given there is a pool. Kitchen was very spacious"

"Terrific "

"Very, very thin walls - you can hear everything your neighbours are doing. Very dated place, cupboards, electrical & furniture need replacing as they are quite disgusting, pretty dirty through wear & tear over the years. Staff great, but only so much they can do. Road to place dreadful, ideally suited to a 4x4 vehicle, not an ordinary rental car. "

"Good place to stay, calm, but isolated. No employees work here. It’s clean, good shower, and comfortable."

"Unique location, comfortable stay, great ambiance. "

"Superb location. Tranquil well run and lovely hosts. Only let down by the rather cluttered and somewhat disorganised reception area. The rest was really lovely. Highly recommended. "
