The Casa Rosina is a lovely villa, and the perfect home away from home. This is my second time staying at the Casa Rosina, and hopefully it won’t be our last! We were a group of eight, two families of four, and the Casa Rosina was perfect for us. The villa is perfectly set up for large groups, with lots of space, bathrooms and big bedrooms to suit everyone. The outdoor space and pool are fabulous, and were thoroughly enjoyed every afternoon. The beach is an easy and enjoyable 10 minute walk, and by the end of our stay we had a perfect routine of spending our mornings at the beach, grabbing snacks and drinks at the Escondidinho or Kalu before heading back to the Casa Rosina for a late lunch and an afternoon swim in the sun!
We ate in on a few occasions and found the kitchen to be well equipped. The outside dining areas were large enough to accommodate all eight of us which was great. When we didn’t eat in we went to the ‘square’ in Ferragudo. We ate at Italia, the Portorade, and Farragood (located across the street from the square and up the hill) and enjoyed great meals at each of these restaurants and all at a reasonable price. There are lots of restaurants to choose from in Ferragudo, there truly is something to suit every taste.
The beach is great! It is big and wide, with lots of room for kids to play, or enjoy a stroll along the shore. The convenience of a lovely beach, a variety of good restaurants and supermarkets (two you can walk to, and a Lidl just 10mins by car) make this Villa, and Ferragudo, a must for any family or group considering a stay in the Algarve. When we arrived we were met by Corinna, she was kind and helpful and not only gave us a run down on how things worked but also a welcome pack of food and drinks. A lovely touch that was much appreciated after a long hot day.
The ease of booking, and the prompt and kind responses from Gina and family were the final touches that made the Casa Rosina perfect! From start to finish Gina was great, as was the Casa Rosina. We are from Canada and arriving at the Casa Rosina felt like coming home. The Villa is spacious and clean, well-kept and obviously cared for by the owners. Ferragudo is a wonderful place, and the Casa Rosina makes the perfect holiday home for any group.
