The beautiful Ria Formosa!: The Ria Formosa in the Algarve is a beautiful labyrinth of lagoons separated from the sea by a coastal dune system which is broken up by various natural inlets. It is one of the most important nature reserves in the network of wetlands that links Europe and sub-Saharan Africa. The Ria has an enormous variety of natural habitats that provide refuge, feeding and breeding areas for an infinite number of flora and fauna and is a haven for birds.

The beaches of the isles of Faro, Barreta, Culatra, Armona and Tavira form a natural barrier to the Ocean. Behind are the dunes, sometimes just a narrow strip and sometimes wider and then come the labyrinth of lagoons and small sand islands and channels. At low tide other salty habitats are uncovered forming marches and salt marshes.

Golfers note!: If you're looking for a golfer's paradise, then look no further than the Algarve for your ultimate golfing experience.
With it's brilliant, sunny climate and dramatic courses throughout the region, it's easy to see why the Algarve is the most popular golfing destination in Europe.
There are over 30 golf courses in the Algarve, ranging from 9-hole courses stretched over the Algarve grassland, to dramatic coastal 18-hole courses set amongst the picturesque cliffs.

Spectacular!
This beautiful home is exactly as advertised! We stayed as a multi-generational family of 11 and had plenty of spaces and supplies for everyone. There were plenty of lounge chairs around the pool and the warm temperature of the pool was welcome in March. The beds were comfortable and the number of bathrooms amazing. We walked to the beach and boardwalk daily and ran on the beach. The supermarket, restaurants, butcher and bakery in the village were wonderful. The people were very kind as we tried out our Portuguese. We look forward to returning regularly!

A special and wonderful place to stay.
Casa Betel was a dream to stay at. We were 8 family members staying for 2 weeks over Christmas and New Year's. The house exceeded our hopes and was wonderful for us. It is very spacious and well laid out, and has everything you could possibly need. Extremely well supplied, comfortable and homelike. We enjoyed outdoor time in the garden with the pool and mandarin tree, made freshly squeezed orange juice with fruit from the tree, wonderful meals at the spacious dining table and the beds were comfy and bathrooms modern. All was super clean. Andrew and Elsie were incredibly responsive and helpful. they even delivered a turkey to us, ordered from a local butcher. The village was so charming, with a local grocery store, cafes and restaurants all within a block or two's walk. The village is well located and close to many places. We drove to Seville for a day, only a l.5 hour's drive. The beach is spectacular and a five minute walk. Christmas Eve sunset at the beach is a memory we will not soon forget. We highly recommend this house and hope to be back.

Lovely Vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Manta Rota. Our host, Andrew, was very responsive to any queries and was we quick to respond if we needed something. The villa is a short walk to the beach and a shorter walk to a fun local pub. All amenities are within walking distance.

Beautiful location
We had some difficulty in finding the house,locals were not even sure of the location but. Once found is easy to locate. There were troubles with the power,it went off a dozen times, electrician came three times before it was repaired,also a pipe broke and had to be replaced so we were without hot water for two days. But saying all that, once Everything was repaired we had a wonderful vacation,location was great and restaurants were terrific.

Perfect Holiday
Our family of ten, including four grandchildren (5 and under) just spent a wonderful month at Casa Betel in Manta Rota. The villa was perfect! The two families with their children stayed on the main floor. The remaining adults were upstairs and it was completely sound proof from the early rising children each morning. Beds were all comfortable and hot water and pressure in the showers were great. The living area had comfortable couches, lots of seating for everyone The kitchen was well equipped (we did add a blender, as we are all smoothy junkies each morning). A small washing machine and two drying racks were a bonus. We enjoyed the heated pool daily, lots of lounge chairs and a spacious deck for the children to play. The orange tree was a HUGE bonus, as we had fresh orange juice each morning. The children enjoyed the grassy courtyard. Ladies came twice while we were there to change bedding and towels. The yard and pool were attended to several times. It was a perfect location, close to some wonderful restaurants and cafe's, a butcher shop and grocery store. A short walk to the boardwalk and endless beaches. A two kilometre walk to the Cacela Train Station.(love train travel in Europe!) The local rooster(s), and sheep were great entertainment. We did have a couple of issues that needed attention and Andrew was quick to address them. Thank you for letting us enjoy your villa, great family memories were made.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Derrick

Host profile image
Both Else and I worked in London for many years before deciding to seek warmer climes! We have two grown up children, now working in London and have been managing properties in the East Algarve for over seven years. We live nearby and are available for help or advice during you stay here.

Why they chose this property

We bought Casa Betel in 2005, initially as the house for us to live in. As a result, the house has a very 'lived in' feel with our own pictures on the wall, a piano and other personal items. The East Algarve is wonderfully portuguese. It is a beautiful place to come at all times of the year. In summer it is very warm and almost always with blue skis and sunshine. The winters are also sunny and with temperatures during the day of 16 to 18 c it is extremely pleasant. Of course there are also far fewer people and it is wonderfully calm and peaceful.

What makes this property unique

The house has a private heated swimming pool.
