We love Italy and we’ve spent our holidays over the last 45 years in Italy… the only exceptions were our holidays in Japan and Madeira…until now….Now we’ve got a third reason to skip Italy: Casa da Lila… a jewel in the heart of the Algarve…!!! What a beauty…even more amazing than the promising web site pictures… Hidden in the center of Silves, you step into an exotic world full of luxury and architectural delights, giving comfort a new meaning… we’ve enjoyed this well-designed house with its views from both inside and its terraces for a fortnight… drinking in the sunshine from sunrise to sunset, loving the storks that you no longer see at home and chilling by the pool with a good book, some music and of course a lovely Portuguese wine!! Naturally, we’ve enjoyed The Algarve as well: nature blooming, unforgettable caves and beaches, picturesque villages…but we found ourselves always “at home” at “bubble time”… what a delight…!!! And as the icing on the cake there was Natália…someone who writes SERVICE with capital letters…we have never felt so welcome!!! We’d like to thank Angela and Herman for giving us the opportunity to fall in love again!
