Arrifanas rough coast view

Pros: Nice accomodation with a cosy community kitchen, fantastic view

Cons: Sun lounger should be replaced or repaired

Vida 10/10
Lithuania 🇱🇹

Pros: It is a very cosy family vila in an amazing place close to the beautiful Arrifana beach. I enjoyed my time there immensely, going to the beach and walking around. By the rocks, where remains of a fortress stand, you can enjoy the ocean view and see goats and seagulls. In the nearby CAL restaurant I got addicted to the chocolate/orange/pepper cake. My bedroom (Fernando)was on a small side, but for 1 person it was perfect. I loved the bedding details, so beautiful. The kitchen downstairs is spacious and amazing and has everything you could need for preparation of meals. I loved everything about this vila, including its interior and distinctive exterior with black stones on white walls. Fernando, who let me in and showed around, was very hospitable and nice.

Cons: You have to be aware of the might of the Atlantic ocean. It swept me off my feet and knocked me down and I lost prescription glasses in the water. In case you find glasses with blue frames, they are mine. I left my contacts in the beach bar, but I understand that the chance to get them back intact is very slim. If you go swimming, please leave your glasses on the beach.

Wonderful

Pros: The accommodation is wonderful, tastefully furnished, very clean and has everything you could need. A shared kitchen and dining room are available, and the living room has a wonderful view of the ocean. Our room was very nice, you could admire the ocean from the terrace. The owner is very kind and helpful. Parking was free next to the house. Shower gel and shampoo, soft towels are included in the room. We had a great time, we spent wonderful days here! Thank you!

Excellent Property, Relaxing Location with Stunning Views

Pros: So relaxing, we had a large double room with balcony and the view was just great. High quality finish, very clean - with the advantage of access to a kitchen and lounge as well. Super village with awesome surfing beach.

Great place, few flaws

Pros: Top spot and super clean location, good beds and excellent view (if you have the rooms with balcony)

Cons: We had the right apartment and noticed a lot of noise from the neighbours. Not only really noisy but if they use the shower it’s almost if someone is showering in your room, not good!

Pros: Loved having a kitchen to cook in after 6 weeks of travelling. Fantastic location near a stunning beach and some lovely cafes.
