Brilliant house, furniture and facilities. The kitchen was furnished like my one at home not a holiday one. Great beach only 10 mins away easy walking. From the booking process to the feedback everything was done to make our time special. We have already re-booked for 2012, that says it all. It is a Spanish resort so if you want British cafe,s do not go to this resort.We loved the atmosphere, La Flecha is well worth a visit.

We had a glorious week at Nuevo Portil, Brisa del Mar in March 2009. The house has everything exactly as described , even beach towels, so we brought very little with us. It is spotlessly clean and very well equipped even down to the smallest detail. We used the Ipod dock all the time and read some of the books which are available while sunbathing on the balcony. We had breakfast on the terrace every morning. We felt very much at home as this was our second visit to Brisa del Mar. We love this part of Spain.


The weather was like summer and we spent a lot of time on the beach. We made good use of the two bikes and we were on the beach in minutes. There are lovely cycle paths through the pine trees along the fabulous beach which stretches for miles. The sunsets are magnificent.


Off season the pool is closed as is the nearby water park and some of the restaurants but this didn ' t bother us at all. A car is essential and we stopped off at the supermarkets near Cartaya and stocked up on all we needed for the week. The journey from Faro airport is very easy and the directions to the house are spot on.


The owners are a pleasure to deal with and provide a great service. They really want you to enjoy your holiday.They have a first class holiday home and all arrangements regarding keys and payment are flawless. We highly recommend this property to our friends and we can ' t wait to go back.

This area must be Spain's best kept secret and is much cheaper than the other Costas. We struggled to find the owner's website on Google so here it is to save you the trouble: www.brisadelmar.talktalk.net. Fantastic holiday - we are going again in 2009.

Nearness to beach and Golf course, location, furnishings and the little extras in the Kitchen that made cooking ( when we wanted to) like cooking at home. The fact that it was not to built up and had a nice Spanish feel to it. A great place to go for a beach or Golf holiday. It was situated on a nice course but El Rompido course (8 Mins drive away) was awesome but hard. Bad point, none but not suitable for a wheelchair user as no lift in the house.

Brisa del Mar has easy access to the beach and golf course, well furnished particularly the kitchen that had extras that I did not expect such as a blender. South facing for sun worshippers and easy access to the road for binging in our supplies ( liquid). Shaded area on the patio garden and on each of the balconies. Golf was cheaper than the other Costa's. As we were out of season not all the restaurants were open. A really good town house for up to 6 people who like either the beach or golf. Easy walking to the first tea and within 10 minutes of El Rompido a great golf course
