Pêra / Algarve ... the place to be! (Portugal - Algarve - Pêra)

Meie külalisraamat

  • À never ending summer

    À never ending summer in a region where there is so much to discover, we could not dream of better. Claudine and Jorge’s ' house is large and comfortable, ideally located 5km from the ocean. We were spoiled for choice to discovering the magnificent beaches and small traditional villages. Our sadness at leaving the Algarve was softened by the delicious meal that Claudine and Jorge had prepared for us and which we shared together on our return. Thank you very much for this beautiful exchange, Muito obrigado.

  • So relaxing!

    We really enjoyed our time at Claudine's and Jorge's home in the Algarve! The quiet neighborhood, the good weather and pool made for some very relaxing days that allowed us to disconnect from the busy day to day. Claudine and Jorge are also quite experienced exchangers so it was lovely to meet them, even if briefly.

  • Claudine and Jorge were the most welcoming hosts. Their home in Pera was the perfect location to explore the Algarve. Our week spent there was action packed, from the beaches to the mountains and even Sagres. Unfortunately when our week ended, we had to wisk back to LISBON (foregoing Spain), to find a new flight back to Canada. The Corona/Covid19 pandemic had set in worldwide. Claudine and Jorge had to cancel their later visit to WHISTLER. Hopefully they will be able to reschedule soon. If you go to Pera, Jorge may have an amazing sand sculpture at home to greet you. You will enjoy your stay. Thanks again, Michael

  • A great non-simultaneous exchange in Algarve

    Claudine and Jorge are a really great hosts and we enjoyed together first in Miravet and second in his lovely and sunny house in Pera. The meals, the chats, the nice moments together and all the indications, recommendations and information was really useful. We will be glad to meet back again if we have the chance. Thanks so much for everything!

  • Beautiful Algarve - we loved it

    Dear Claudine and Jorge thank you so much for swaping houses with us - we have never been to Portugal and so we were really happy, that you considered us! You have a nice and big house - our kids had their own room (with some toys you provided) and their own bathroom, same as us! But what they loved most, was your swimming pool. The shower outside was fantastic. The weather was fantastic (about 30 degrees every day - with a bit of wind - perfect) not too hot, nice at the beach. The beaches were just amazing! The kids loved the one with the rocks the most - Lourenco Beach, 10 min from your house. The sunset there is great and there are two beautiful restaurants there AND it is not so crowded - you find absolutely lonly spots between the rocks (especially in the morning). We also especially loved Marinha beach (you get to a beautiful smal beach through a cave in the rock left hand side, where you are all alone in the morning) and Albandeira Beach (also a cave to a second beach ... during ebb). We had a great cataplana at the Boa Onda (next to the covered market) - thanks for this suggestion and thanks for the 2 bottels of portugiese vine you left as a welcome present. When we got home, we had the chance to meet you in person! That was great - Jeorge, you were absolutly amazing with the kids. They loved you. Thanks for the dinner you provided! So nice :-) We really hope we do meet you again one day - maybe in Belgium. All the best and a big kiss, Alex, Roland, Leonard and Carina

  • Great House

    We loved our stay in Sligo, House was great and we loved it

  • Wonderful exchange!

    Dear Claudine and Jorge thank you for the warm welcome and making us feel at home in your house. The location was perfect for exploring and beaching, but the house with the pool also made us want to stay at home and just relax with our children. We enjoyed the small town and often walked at night for dinner, it was good to be away from all the bigger towns and get to see real culture. Thanks again! Margrét and family

  • Thank you for the exchange!!

    We enjoyed our time in your house close to the wonderful Algarve coast, the house and his nice surroundings did not disappoint us. Thanks a lot and best wishes for your future travels.

  • beautiful holiday home in the Algarve

    This was our first home exchange and it was amazing. The house is even nicer than pictured and the owners are exceptionally hospitable and have prepared our arrival perfectly. We had an unforgettable vacation.

  • Séjour parfait!

    Après avoir passé trois semaines intenses à explorer le Portugal du nord (Lisbonne, Porto, Peso da Regua et la vallée du Douro, Coimbra) il fut magique de venir jouir doucement et lentement de l’art de vivre portugais à Pêra, dans votre magnifique demeure. Nous avons passé, chez vous, cinq semaines de détente à découvrir l’Algarve (Tavira, Santa Lucia, Faro, São Bràs de Alportel, Albufeira, Armação de Pêra, Lagos, Ponta da Piedade, Sagres, Forte Béliche, Cabo de São Vincente, Silves, etc). Cinq semaines à profiter du soleil et de la mer. Cinq semaines à déguster et à apprendre la gastronomie traditionnelle portugaise et à l’expérimenter dans votre cuisine. Cinq semaines à nous délecter des différents terroirs du Portugal. Nous y avons appris : la culture du chêne à liège, le comment de la pêche aux pieuvres. Nous y avons admiré nombres de flamboyants couchers de soleil, des paysages de bordures de mer uniques, une végétation florale exubérante, une luminosité qui donne du relief à nos photos, une architecture propre teintée d’influences diverses. Nous ne sommes toujours pas assouvis. Il manque de jours pour admirer encore, il manque de repas pour tout goûter. Mais il ne nous manquera pas de souvenirs. Merci Claudine et Jorge pour cette belle occasion. Alain et Linda

  • Great house & location
