This is the second year we have stayed in one of Calyferais properties and I cannot recommend them enough. The property is always beautifully spotless and Sandrine goes above and beyond, from waiting to meet us when our flight was delayed, she settled us in and made sure we have milk, juice and water. She was super responsive if we had any questions or needed anything and was so helpful during our stay. Amazing service- highly recommend. Thanks Sandrine and Calyferais for another fantastic holiday.

Cela fait plusieurs fois que nous faisons appel à Sandrine de Calyferias pour nos vacances et nous ne sommes jamais déçus ! Sandrine a su nous proposer l’appartement qui correspondait parfaitement à nos attentes et à un prix raisonnable pour l’Algarve. C’est agréable de partir en vacances et savoir que ce que nous avons loué sera top ! On part les yeux fermés ! Nous recommandons à 100%! Merci Sandrine ! Et à bientôt pour nos prochaines vacances 😉
