If you like bland, predictable, corporate hotels, then Casa Grande isn't the place for you. If you like warm hospitality, a unique and quirky atmosphere and a lovely location, then you'll love Casa Grande. Sally is a great hostess and we enjoyed sharing breakfast with her each morning and chatting over our plans for the day. Each of the bedrooms... More

one of the most exciting holidays we ever had: stayed 4 weeks at Casa Grande! We met so many great people, musicians, had sessions and party all the time! And our host- lovely sally- was always having new plans. From fado night to rockn roll fever- she knows whats going on. We visited all the wonderful different beaches in and... More

Visited this beautiful old grand mansion with my girlfriend in September 2012. It was great, in spite of the rain falling the whole 3 days we spend there. Sally is a warm, friendly and joyful person. She was having her birthday and we even got invited to her birthday party and met a lot of her friends and family! We... More

Visited on a Sunday evening in November, quite a few customers in and service prompt and efficient. Starters nice but pizzas ok and no more, glad we went and tried it out but probably use one of the other pizza resturants in the village next time

Not for those who like everything spotless and sanitised. Full of old world character and charm which includes the very friendly and entertaining hostess. Like staying with a favourite aunt. A beautiful old house with spacious bedrooms and balconies. Close to beach and centre of an attractive fishing village. Well worth visiting. We wished we could have stayed longer.

CasaGrande is a exceptional experience, warm welcome and soul full place. It is not a hotel, its a home. Sally is a great host and the restaurant is very good! We had a nice time, although it was to short! Jeroen and Jolanda

For a small town Burgau has three pizza restaurants. This one was very good. It's only open on fri, sat and sun so don't miss it. The anchovies starter was excellent and the pizzas are wonderfully individual. It was great to be eating none chained food in a rustic environment.

I first happened on the Casa Grande 25 years ago and was delighted to find the intervening years had not changed the ambience, the decor, or the welcome from hostess Sally...indeed, she appears to have discovered the secret of eternal life and is a bundle of energy and the font of all knowledge when it comes to anything Algarvean.
