The Experience
The eccentricity of the house (its surprising layout, its nooks and crannies, its steps up and down) seems in perfect keeping with this little riverside village. And even in August it isn’t too busy with tourists, mainly locals. Spanish on one side, Portuguese on the other. Casa Verde’s covered patio is a blissful place to be as you watch the boats float up and down; find a leafy inner courtyard too, a terrace among the rooftops, a sunbathing deck and a private plunge pool. There’s also an outdoor cinema with a good choice of DVDs.
River boating, kayaking and swimming are the activities here -and a zip wire across the river, from one country to the next! Sporty friends and families with older kids will adore it. Inside: comfortable sofas, a well-equipped kitchen and a dining room with an outdoor fire.
Fresh flowers welcome you, along with coffee, tea, oranges, wine, cake, and logs for the fire.

We thoroughly enjoyed Casa Verde. The house is stylishly decorated and size wise it was perfect for us (a family of four) though could easily have accommodated another family. There is plenty of outdoor space - each of 4/5 terraces has different features and outlooks. With a very well equipped kitchen and semi-outdoor BBQ we self-catered quite a bit, but also loved the restaurants in the village on the other side of the river, easily reached using the 'house dinghy' or water taxi. Lots to do nearby, great beaches & close to nature. Lovely!

We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful, pristine and spacious Casa Verde..... drinks on the veranda, in the plunge pool, outdoor cinema surrounded by bougainvillea and jasmine, barbecues.... There are great places to walk, swim and eat nearby and interesting places to visit. Alcoutim, on the Portuguese side of the river can be reached by ferry dinghy or zip-wire! The local people are friendly and welcoming. Casa Verde is the perfect place for a happy, memorable holiday.

Casa Verde is a beautifully situated villa in the heart of Sanlúcar. The luxury accommodation, at an affordable price, overlooks the river and benefits from amazing sunsets accompanied with the chiming of local church bells ....from both Spain and uniquely Portugal. The relaxing pace of life is magnified by the gentle flow of the river, separating the two countries, where the local water taxi service provides a useful crossing. Casa Verde provides an exceptional base to escape from mundane tourism with the added benefit of glorious sunshine for our stay.

Location
The neighbourhood
You're in the heart of the charming white village of Sanlúcar de Guadiana with its cobbled alleyways and riverside jetty. The house sits in a prominent position looking across the river to the Portuguese village of Alcoutim. Borrow the owner's boat if you have a license, zip wire over, or call the 'on demand' ferry. Within a five-minute walk there are shops, a bakery and three restaurants.
Local points of interest from Val Woodhouse
- The lovely river Guadiana which winds its way between Portugal and Spain, is always changing, always moving and is a place to dream as you bob down the river in our dinghy or in a kayak. Or go for a swim at the village pool, just a 5 minute walk away.
- Climb up to the castle in the village for the most fantastic view, and then take the thrilling ride on the zipwire across to Portugal. Better still you arrive there 59 minutes earlier than when you left!
- Enjoying a drink - particularly a gin and tonic (they are huge!) - at the beach bar in the village and trying some of the tasty tapas whilst watching the reflections on the water. Very cool!.
- Staying in March and November and finding that it is so warm that a T-shirt is still enough to wear even outside at 11 o'clock at night!
- Ambling down the river path to the finca, picking the oranges and filling a big bag, to then walk back, squeezing them to make juice and ice-cream. Very very satisfying.
- Finding one of the many fiestas taking place in the village, watching the donkeys race through the narrow streets, barbeque of sardines and a dance with the locals. Or watch the Virgin del Carmen statue cross the river and back. That is special, indeed
