Great villa, great host
We really enjoyed our stay at Steve's property. The outside areas were lovely and spacious and we enjoyed eating outside every morning and evening. The pool was a great size and the pool area was perfect for sunbathing. All the rooms were spacious and the air-conditioning worked perfectly. A car is 100% required, which we had so not an issue. The property is close to the airport and lots of little towns which were good for a half day trip. We were within 15 minutes of a large supermarket and a 2 minute drive to the local shop which had a good selection of essentials and was very reasonable. Looking forward to coming back.

A lovely relaxing home from home
Myself and my 3 children (14, 10 and 5) have just returned from a lovely stay in this beautiful converted farmhouse. Set out in the countryside it was perfect for a peaceful and relaxing holiday. A car is essential and you are only a short drive from anything you could need. We did waterparks; a boat ride and beaches and relaxed in the perfectly sized pool. Finally Steve was alway on hand to answer any queries, help with ideas and an all-round great guy. I'm sure we will see you again! Thank you!

Holiday
The property lived up to the pictures. A car is essential and the road up to the property is very rough. The owner was available if you needed him for anything but respected your privacy.Perfect if you just want to relax in peace and quiet but Albufeira and Vilamoura the more tourist places just half an hour away, so best of both worlds.

The farmhouse was what we wanted and as described on its own and quiet . The owner lives close bye and was very helpful when required .it is well placed for visiting the towns and villages in this area . a car is a must to get the best out of where you are and have to get used to the conditions of the country roads .there are plenty of shops and restaurants in the near bye villages .we enjoyed our holiday and would recommend it to anyone John and Lorna jackson .

Excellent location to explore the whole Algarve, minutes to the main motorway connecting the region. Stephen was available to recommend and assist us with whatever we needed.

A Wonderful Stay
Just returned from a week's stay at this lovely converted farmhouse. The 'Quintinha' has been tastefully converted to a very high standard. Only about 20 minutes from Faro, it is a good base for exploring many towns in the Eastern Algarve. A car is a must but there are many cafes and restaurants within easy reach. Steve the owner was always on hand if we needed him and was extremely welcoming. We would thoroughly recommend this lovely property. Sue and Graham

The Perfect Villa and host for an amazing holiday!!
My family and I spent two glorious weeks at Quintinha Villa in early August. The Villa is just perfect and beautifully restored. We wanted a relaxing holiday and this certainly did surpass our expectations. Steve (owner) is the nicest guy you could ever meet and nothing was too much trouble. The villa is completely self contained with 3 spacious bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen, offering all the comforts of home. The air-conditioning was a godsend, as was the lovely pool that our 7 yr old son enjoyed daily. The Villa is perfectly located, giving quick access to the picturesque town of Estoi (a visit to the Casa De Estoi Hotel is a must). A car is essential for exploring the area but the local shop & cafe (15 min walk) was well stocked and convenient. An easy 20 min drive to Olhao, where you will find a few large supermarkets (Lidl and Continente). We were so at home there, very sorry to leave and would highly recommend. Thanks Steve for everything, we would all love to return.

Peaceful, rural and just what we wanted.
Fantastic stay in Casa Quintinha. Steve was a lovely friendly owner who was on hand if we needed anything. We are looking to buy in the area and this property would suit us down to the ground. Handy with a car for exploring the Eastern Algarve and finding lots of unspoilt areas or equally chill in the pool or at the terrace. Would highly recommend.

SUPER
We all had a fantastic holiday and Stevie was amazing and couldn't of done enough for us as a family. The farmhouse is a great base to explore but a car is a must! Everything you need is in the farmhouse iron, kettle etc etc etc. We used the outdoor space most of the time as the bbq area and pool were lovely. I have already told family and friends about the farmhouse and we will most definitely be returning in the future.

An amazing place and owner - you wont be disappointed
The family, 2 adults and two older kids had a really super holiday here. Firstly the Villa it is even better than the photographs show, spacious and clean as well as an excellent maintained pool. WI-FI and excellent TV and DVD choice as well for when it gets too hot. Ask Steve to show you the pictures prior to the Villa being converted from an old farmhouse. - amazing. Location great with main roads to everywhere only 10 minutes away and all in very relaxing surroundings. Our host Steve was a fantastic and super helpful from the moment we arrived into Portugal he was there to assist us with getting there.To water and beer on our arrival to a sliced loaf of soft bread for my daughter :) . A door knock away, Steve really did make the visit to Estoi that so much better, a genuinely nice bloke and there to make your stay that extra special. Thank you Steve

Great Time in a Character Property
The six of us ,four adults and two children had a really enjoyable holiday here. The owner made us feel very welcome and was really helpful. The rooms were clean and well maintained and the pool was kept in good condition.TV and DVD was available when you wished to drag yourself indoors. While the property is not far from shops and attractions a vehicle is really essential to make the most of its situation. After the welcome we had we hope to return.

We had a great week at this lovely farmhouse, which has an extremely helpful owner.
The property is in a lovely rural spot, just outside the town, but I think you need a car. There was plenty of space for the 5 of us. We spent a lot of time on the terrace or round the pool. It was a great base to explore the area from, and the driving was easier than i had expected. The owner was incredibly helpful, and welcoming, and it helped to make our stay really enjoyable.I can thoroughly recommend Casa Quintinha for a fab place to stay.

About our stay:
Casa Quintinha was just what we both wanted, off the beaten track, secluded, with nice views, lovely countryside with great walks, weather permitting: somewhere to rest, and catch up with our reading. 15 minutes walk from the local mini supermarket providing our daily needs, and a charming busy local cafe serving great inexpensive lunches (barbecues on Fridays), and friendly hardworking staff. Estoi was within 45 minutes walk mainly using local tracks with a larger supermarket and some good restaurants for evening meals. Larger supermarkets were available within a 20 minute drive. Casa Quintinha was converted by the current owner from an old rambling stone farmhouse, modernised and well appointed whilst retaining the original character. The owner was friendly and helpful, and available to keep the place well maintained. The pool was regularly cleaned. We enjoyed our time on the patio or by the pool, with our meals outside, and a few nice barbecues, with TV (several film channels) and DVD available. Overall, a very lovely couple of weeks.

Relaxing rural retreat but within easy distance of airport, beaches and facilities
We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend this accommodation and the area. It's even better than in the photographs. We were a group of 5 with 3 grown up children and found there was ample room for all of us. The pool was a really good size. We particularly liked the outside eating area and made a lot of use of this and the barbeque. It was good to have the tv with extensive dvd collection so we could take a break inside during the hottest part of the day. If the sky is clear, patio and roof top terrace are good for star gazing as there is very little artificial light so you can see loads of stars. The house feels quite remote due to it being in the middle of the countryside and at the end of country road it is in fact less than 30 mins drive to the airport and to several beautiful beaches, there were also shops and supermarkets close by. We were really surprised how close everything was. On recommendation from Tetyana we visited Fuseta beach and took the ferry out to the island beach. Fuesta beach was beautiful and less busy than I expected during peak holiday season. We also visited Tavira town and the island beach there. Tavira Island beach is much bigger and has a choice of several restaurants, small shops and cafes. Much busier than Fuseta but still nice. We also visited the nearby roman ruins of Milreu near Estoi and a bit further away at Amancil the blue and white tiled Church of Sao Lourenco de Almancil. At Casa Quintinha you're ideally placed to visit further afield as it's close to the motorway but we didn't venture far. We only stayed a week, were very sad to leave and would definitely return if we decide to come back to this area of Portugal. It was really helpful having Tetyana so close incase we had any problems and Stephen was really helpful and responded quickly to questions before the holiday.

Review of Quintinha
We stayed here in late June and early July 2017. We absolutely loved the place and had a very relaxing holiday. We made great use of the outdoor barbecue and seating area. Stephen and Tetyana were very helpful and on their advice we went to the market in Olaho and sourced fresh fish and stocked up at a lovely butchers in the market. The private pool is a fantastic facility and the quietness made the holiday enjoyable. We were a party of 5 and had plenty of room in the property. Estoi is walking distance only if you are keen walkers but we had a hired jeep and went into Estoi for food a good number of evenings, there are 4 or 5 resturants and we were particularly impressed by Galleria dos Sentidos which was really lovely. Faro beach is only 15-20 minute drive and we went there a lot. Also we would recommend a boat trip from Olaho it's a lovely day visiting the islands and having lunch and swimming at numerous different beaches. We found driving in the area very easy and encountered no aggressive motorists. In summary we would highly recommend this holiday let, it is spotlessly clean, is spacious and has excellent facilities. To conclude we found Stephen and Tetyana very helpful yet respectful of our privacy and we wouldn't hesitate to return to Quintana again in the future.

Nice Appartement and lovely owner
We stayed 4 days in the farm house and it was great. You hear some little sounds from the nature in the house but this is the Charme of it! The owner Steve is lovely and lives next door, he helps you if you need him. On the rest of the day you do not notice him. All in all it was a nice place and we hope we can come back someday.:-)

Uma casa rústica, muito acolhedora
A casa embora rústica, é muito acolhedora, equipada com tudo o que é necessário para passar uns dias de férias e com um espaço exterior espectacular. Adorámos o terraço, a piscina e os campos em volta, onde se podem fazer algumas caminhadas. O Steve também é espectacular, sempre muito preocupado com o nosso bem-estar, sempre disponível quando necessário, mas respeitando muito a nossa privacidade. É, sem dúvida, um sítio onde gostaríamos de voltar.

Excellent property and excellent host !!!
First thing, about the owner of the house : Stephen. I traveled a lot and rarely saw a host that nice. He does the maximum for you so you can spend a perfect holiday in his house. He's very reliable and will help you as far as he can. He would never disturb you but, will be always ready to help in case of need. Secondly, the house : the terrace is very big so you can spend all day outside, even with children it's OK. No road close so the place is very quiet, on the hills of the countryside. The swimming pool is very clean, Stephen makes sure that it stays clean at any time. Many sunbeds around which is great. Inside the house, it's fresh when it's warm outside. Typical former farm with everything you will need. We didn't spend much time inside the house because we enjoyed the terrace . We had a great moment at Stephen house, only positive things to say about him, if i come back to the South of Portugal I will definitely get back to him :-) Thanks again for your kindness and you work !

A casa é muito simpática, o local é muito agradável e campestre, a piscina é óptima e está muito bem localizada. A casa fica muito perto de Estói e de Olhão. Foram umas férias muito regeneradoras e muito agradáveis. Principalmente porque o Stephens está sempre disponível e é super atencioso com todos os pormenores.
