Reviews

We have already welcomed dozens of guests to Talurdo Retreat. They all have a story to tell. In this section, we want to give you an impression of what our guests say about their stay.

  • “The most beautiful place in the Algarve. David and Chris are wonderful people who worked hard to create a place with a special energy where everybody can come to rest. The hot outside shower felt like a blessing and swimming in the pond feels amazing at all times of the day. There is a big water reservoir close to the place where you can drive and have a whole lake for yourself. Loved the dogs!”

  • “What a wonderful place! They are making an amazing retreat with a natural swimming pond, a duck pond, sweet goats and dogs and some beautiful rental cabins. The entrance is a bit small so not suited for big campers. There's a toilet and shower (secluded but outside) and many hiking opportunities (we even took two of the dogs with us as guides). We would have loved to stay longer and will definitely be back someday.”

  • “Well worth going off the beaten track to find this amazing place. Wonderful hosts, idyllic garden, very well-behaved (and quiet!) dogs, great hiking and cycling for as far as you want to go. Like us, you will stay longer than intended and plan to return again sometime. Thank you.”

  • “Such a beautiful place! We had such a good time at the retreat. We felt completely safe there. There is an outdoor kitchen as well as a bathroom and an natural pool. The owners also habe four dogs which a super sweet and protect the property.”

  • Pilar on Booking.com about the Pond House

    “It is a cosy space, full of details. The attention of the owners is excellent, always making sure your stay is as comfortable as possible. David, Christoper, charming, they have a small shop where they sell food, drinks and some necessities. We were looking for a place in the mountains, away from the noise of the cities of the Algarve coast, it has an artificial lake with ducks, goats, a natural pool, BBQ and at night they have a fairytale lighting of the whole area. In short, a place to disconnect and relax. Please note that the bathroom is shared with some people who come by van or stay in some of the other houses.”
