Ocholo: Reviews
Fantastic experience: What a little gem of a place Woodsmill view is. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left, we never stopped admiring the view. The balcony is a great feature of this first floor accommodation. Spotlessly clean apartment, modern and traditional twists with everything you could need for a weekend or a longer stay, including a well equipped kitchen and coffee maker. Check in instructions were clear and precise, we appreciated the street view to help us locate the apartment and the garage to park in. The shower was hot and powerful, and the bed was very comfortable. All in all we couldn’t fault it and would definitely choose to stay here again when we return to York.
Fantastic experience: I had the most wonderful holiday in the Algarve in 2021, and a huge part of that was thanks to the fantastic company, Ocholo, and incredible Lynne. She made the whole experience feel seamless and truly special, which is rare when booking holiday accommodation. We stayed at the beautiful Villa Gale Papagayo, and it was even better than the pictures. Nestled in a serene spot with stunning views, the villa is the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. The interiors are beautifully decorated, creating a calming, sophisticated atmosphere that felt like a true escape. The outdoor area was a highlight – lounging by the pool, with gorgeous views and plenty of sun, made it hard to want to leave the villa. The Algarve itself was a dream to explore, with its stunning beaches, vibrant towns, and lovely locals. Ocholo ensured we had a smooth experience from start to finish, making it so easy to relax and enjoy every moment. I can’t recommend Ocholo, Lynne, and the stunning Villa Gale Papagayo enough – they made our holiday absolutely unforgettable.
Fantastic experience: My family had an amazing holiday in the Algarve at the end of June 2021, and even though I couldn’t be there because I came down with Covid, they couldn’t stop raving about the experience. Everything was booked through Lynne at Ocholo, and she went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect for them. From the booking process to answering questions along the way, Lynne was incredibly helpful and patient, giving my family confidence that they’d be well taken care of during their stay. They stayed at the gorgeous Villa Gale Papagaio, and from what they told me, it truly felt like a slice of paradise. The villa itself was beautiful, with stylish decor, spacious rooms, and a luxurious pool area where they spent most of their days relaxing and soaking in the sun. The outdoor space had everything they needed, with comfortable seating and picturesque views that made every moment feel special. Even though I wasn’t able to join, it was comforting to know that my family was in great hands. They came back with so many wonderful stories and a glow that only comes from a truly relaxing vacation. A big thank you to Lynne and Ocholo for organizing such a memorable trip for them — I’m already dreaming of booking my own trip with them as soon as possible!
Fantastic experience: We had a fantastic holiday with these people. They are always ready to help u and want u to get the best out of the vacation.
Fantastic experience: We stayed at the Woodsmill Quay apartment in York for a week in October and I must say what a beautiful clean and well equipped apartment it is. The location could not be better as it is situated in the centre of York and is only a 10-15 minute walk from the railway station. If you are thinking of staying in York then I would fully recommend this apartment.
Fantastic experience: We had an amazing stay, the apartment was lovely and clean. It had all the essentials you need to help make your stay better. We really would recommend a stay here.
Fantastic experience: Lovely week with the family at Villa Helene Norvilla! Beautiful stay and great location. Hosts were so helpful!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic location and villa. Local rep make everything run smoothly. Thank you for a great holiday
Fantastic experience: very supportive team - went an extra mile for me to have all I needed for my yoga meditation retreat at Villa Faustino in Boliqueime. Thanks
Fantastic experience: I recently stayed at Villa Helene Norvilla with my family. The villa was great, loads of space, clean and the pool was fab. We all had a great time and I'm sure we will visit again in the future.
Fantastic experience: We stayed at the Woodsmill View Apartment, York in August and loved it so much booked straight back up when we got home (we've since booked for a third time). We won't stay anywhere else again now we've found somewhere so perfect. The apartment is very centrally located next to bars, restaurants and shops. There's a garage underneath which is so handy for parking. We were sent great info before arrival on how to find apartment and get keys etc. Very quick responses if we needed to query anything. Photos don't do the apartment justice, it's bigger than we thought! It was very tidy, clean and had everything there we needed for a comfortable stay. The balcony with view over river is the best thing about the apartment. It's amazing! Can't fault the place, thankyou so much for an amazing stay!
Fantastic experience: A wonderful stay at Woodsmill York UK in July. Walking distance to all attractions in York. Lovely clean accommodation fantastic views from the balcony. Thoroughly recommend this accommodation.
Fantastic experience: Lovely Villa with great pool area and all rooms were nicely done and come with en-suites which was great! The villa is nicely styled inside and has everything you need! Aldi around the corner was very convenient as well as some bars and restaurants. Beach was walkable distance also which was nice. A cleaner came halfway through our stay which was a nice touch.
Fantastic experience: We recently spent a week at Villa Helene Norvilla in Guia/Albufeira, Portugal with a group of friends and had an amazing time. The villa feels brand new, very clean and tidy with great facilities. The photos are accurate but the villa is more impressive in real life. All the bedrooms are of an equally high standard so nobody lost out and got stuck in a small room, which can happen on group holidays. The pool area is great, very private and with plenty of space. We visited in mid-September so the weather wasn't really hot, but the pool was still lovely and warm without needing the heating. The kitchen had a decent selection of pans and utensils, also plenty of fridge space. They have a good pod coffee machine too! Having the Aldi within walking distance was very convenient as they sold pretty much everything we needed. Ubers are very cheap and easy to get through so it's fine without a car. The housekeeper came midway though and gave us all fresh towels and changed sheets/clean rooms. Communication was easy and prompt - they also very kindly (and very quickly) posted my boyfriend's wallet back to the UK after he left it there. All in all, we had a wonderful week and could not recommend the villa and Ocholo enough. Will definitely stay with them again!
Hi Edith, thank you for your lovely 5 star review! It's amazing to hear that you and your friends enjoyed your stay at Villa Helene Norvilla and that you would recommend it to others. Hopefully we can speak again for more holidays in the future! Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: The location of this apartment is perfect in York. Right on the river and close to everything. It was easy getting into the apartment and the elevator helped getting luggage upstairs. The place was immaculate and had everything we needed. The parking can be flooded as it is noted on the website. Lynne is posting a website you can track to see if flooding is imminent. We will definitely stay here if we return to York!! Jim
We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay at Woodsmill View James - the location is great isn't it! We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future! Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: What a great place! Views are amazing and the home is super comfy. Had everything we needed and you can walk the boardwalk right out front of your door and go just a block or two to great restaurants like Benny's where we had some of the best steak ever!
It is lovely to hear you had a great stay at Ivy House, Joel! Thank you very much for your 5 star review - we hope we can welcome you back in the future! Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: Great host and lovely villa!
Hi Toby, it's great to hear you liked Villa Das Oliveiras - we would love to welcome you back in the future! Thank you for your 5 star review :) Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: We just came from Bramble Barn Private Sauna & Hot Tub at Newbiggin Farm West close to sweet Filey. We were so pampered with the wellness facilities. We found ourselves looking forward to returning, it was so, so nice to come home to, after days out hiking the Cleveland Way to Scarborough, & on day 2 after going on the NYorks Moors Railway to visit Whitby. It was idyllic when we stayed from 16-20 Sept 2024, beautiful, fresh but bright sunny weather. Also seeing the Harvest Supermoon from the tub was a special highlight. It's in a secluded rural place next to a farm with horses and it is a peaceful, lovely situation. Inside it has well thought-out living amenities and is perfect for a couple. Recommended highly.
Thank you Fiona for leaving such a lovely review of Bramble Barn. Glad you had such a great time in the surroundings, it really is in a beautiful location and sounds like you made the most of it! Come back again soon! ~ Lynne, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: I used Ocholo for the first time this year and was given excellent service both in the Uk and Portugal. Lynne and Amaris are brilliant! I will certainly be using Ocholo in the future.
Thanks Renato for staying in Villa Das Oliveiras. We are glad you had a wonderful Algarve holiday and your comments on our excellent service make us very proud. Thank you. We hope to welcome you back again soon, Best regards, Lynne
Fantastic experience: We had a great stay at the Villa, everything was as it was described. Very spacious inside and enjoyed the heated pool. Lynne & team were very responsive and a great help with organising transfers to and from airport. The Villa is walking distance to shops, pubs & restaurants and 10 mins in a taxi to old town and 15 mins to the new town in Albufeira. Our favourite nearby restaurant was cafe scenarium. Would definitely stay again.
Hi Jade, we are delighted to hear you had a lovely stay at Villa Helene Norvilla! Thank you for your 5 star review, we are glad our service was a great help during your stay - hopefully we can welcome you back in the future :) Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: Great company, we couldn't believe how easy the complete process was, the help and assistance throughout was good. The villa itself was stunning, clean and perfect. We would have no hesitation recommending this team. AAAAA++++++
Thank you so much for your review - we appreciate that hugely. Glad you loved your stay at Villa Atlantis in Menorca and we will hopefully book your stay next year. Best regards, Lynne
Fantastic experience: A Perfect Family Getaway We had a fantastic stay at this villa! The house was spotless, beautifully renovated, and well-provisioned, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk from stunning beaches, local shops, and excellent restaurants. The booking process was seamless, and Lynn was incredibly helpful, even providing us with extra beds for our family. It was the perfect spot for our family gathering, and we truly felt at home. We can’t wait to come back again! Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I've had one really great holiday week with my family in Patroves Ranch, Algarve. Everyone with whom I spoke with (Lynne, Amaris, DreamPlaces team) was really nice, of service and available to clarify any topic since the moment I booked the house until the moment we left. We've even pointed out a few things missing in the house when we arrived and the next day a team came and took care of everything. They've shown great costumer care and that's the kind of feature that fosters trust and makes me want to keep booking with Ocholo.
Wow thank you Beatriz for such a wonderful 5 star review! It was a pleasure speaking to you and hopefully we can speak again for more holidays! Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: We're a family of 7 who have just returned from 2 wonderful weeks staying in Villa Fiona in Portugal. We had a lovely time staying in this villa and everything was as described. We were well looked after by Hugo while staying in the villa. He was always quick to respond and nothing was too much trouble. Ocholo has excellent communication and Lynne and Amaris made the booking experience go very smoothly. Their excellent customer service should be example to any travel company. I would highly recommend this business when booking a villa.
Thank you for your fantastic review Stuart, we appreciate your recommendation very much! It is great to hear that we were able to make your holiday go smoothly and we hope to speak again in the future! Best Regards, Amaris
Fantastic experience: My friend and I have just spent 3 nights at this beautiful riverside apartment. As you first go in, you are greeted by a gorgeous smell, (I'm going to have to buy some of that air freshner!)and then you go in to the lounge, and everything is so clean and comfortable, with fantastic views over the river. It really is a perfect place to stay . We didn't have a car, but it is very easy to get around. It's just a short walk over the bridge into the centre of York, with a Sainsbury's on the corner if you need to stock up with a few essentials. This is our second visit to this apartment, and we will certainly be back in the future. Highly recommended.
Thank you June, for your amazing 5 star review and recommendation - the air freshener is lovely isn't it! We really appreciate your great comments and hope to welcome you back again for the third time :) Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: House was amazing, full equipped and perfect location, waking distance to the beach. We had a great communication with the manager and everyone enjoyed a very nice and pleasant vacation. Would recommend a 100%

It's great to hear you had an amazing time at Villa Cabrita Gale, Bethan! Thank you for your 5 star review and for your recommendation. We would love to speak again for more holidays in the future! Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: I had a very beautiful family trip to Vale do Lobo, Portugal c/o Ocholo. A very experienced and helpful agent Lynne created our booking for us. She went out of her way to find the perfect accommodation for our family. Her customer service is second to none. Everything went seamlessly with regard to airport transfers, villa key collection etc. I would highly recommend this business and will definitely use them in the future. Contact Lynne at Ocholo and you’ll be guaranteed success with your booking!
Hi Jo, thank you for the amazing 5 star review and for recommending us! It's lovely to hear that everything went seamlessly and that the villa was perfect for you. We look forward to speaking again soon! Best regards, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Great finca with beautiful property! A beautiful finca that is perfect for up to 6 people. Each bedroom has its own en suite bathroom and there is a spacious kitchen. The outdoor area is simply fantastic - beautiful lounge furniture on the terrace, a wonderful pool, a great garden - and not unimportant for dog owners: everything is completely enclosed. We always had the feeling of being in our own little oasis of well-being after the gate to the property had closed... Just great!!! And absolutely important: The customer contact is incredibly cordial, absolutely courteous and simply great! Lynne does a fantastic job - you feel like you're in good hands - absolutely recommendable!
Hi Andreas, thank you for your 5 star review and your lovely comments! We are glad your stay at Villa Benellis was fantastic and that you felt like you were in your own little oasis. You know where we are now for future holidays! Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Location was great for hopping onto transport for the various tourist locations, and for a small supermarket for the essentials. Apartment was well equipped and easily accomodated the 8 of us.
Happy to hear you had a great time Nick. Thank you for the 5 star review, we appreciate it! You know where we are now for future holidays! Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Villa Norcas Grande Had a fantastic week at this villa, from booking to arrival our experience with Ocholo was excellent. The Villa was perfect for our family of 13, the two villas worked perfectly, the rooms were larger than expected with plenty of space for all. The two pools worked well with the age ranges and regularly cleaned throughout the week. The Villa is very close to the supermarket and some lovely excellent friendly restaurants. Would definitely recommend this villa for larger families holidaying together.
We are delighted to hear you had a wonderful time at the villa and that your experience with us was excellent Christina! Thank you for the lovely 5 star review, hopefully we can welcome you back in the future! Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Positive experience: Very nice villa, with all conditions as mentioned in the announcement, exactly what we pretended for a fun and pleasant vacations. This villa is very well located near to supermarkets, restaurants, pharmacies, nice little cafes. The beach is five minutes away by car. Excelent choise for us as a family of four.
Hi Humberto, Casa Dos Pais is a great villa isn't it! We are so happy your family had a lovely holiday and we hope to speak again soon. Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Villa Cinco palmeiras is beautiful! My family had the most incredible time! The Villa is well equipped and clean. The only thing that could be improved are some of the equipment available are already old. The location is quiet but a little far away from the center! Lynne and Amaris at Ocholo was amazing - highly recommend! Next year we will book through your company again.
Thank you Liliana for the amazing 5 star review and the lovely comments! We are delighted that you and your family had an incredible time at Villa Palmeiras. We look forward to booking another holiday for you next year :) Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Positive experience: Apartment was nice but balcony could be better Liked · The location was great, not too far from centre of town. Inside of apartment was clean and tidy. Disliked · The Balcony was supposed to be the main selling point of the apartment & what attracted us to pick this one but we couldn't actually sit out on the balcony as it was really dirty & needed cleaned. We hoovered the balcony so we could stand outside at least. The walkway was full of rust & could use a coat of paint, even the metal chairs & table had rust. The window in the bedroom was painted shut so couldn't open it so we had to buy a fan as the room was so hot.
Hi Kirsteen, thank you for your review! We are glad the location of the apartment was great for you. We really do appreciate your feedback and have improved the balcony with a new coat of paint and a clean! We will also take onboard your feedback about the window and get this sorted soon :) Hopefully we can speak again! Best regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Positive experience: Nice villa with nice facilities, good location, kept our family happy for the fortnight holiday. Only issues for me were the road noise which at times was quite bad, the lack of a lock on the downstairs toilet in villa B and the uncomfortable sunbeds which had no mattresses.
Hi Jim, thank you very much for your review - we are glad you enjoyed the facilities and location of the villa! We do appreciate your feedback and we will definitely take these onboard. Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: This is a very spacious plot, great outdoor space & ample sunbeds. Bbq area was also great & in a good location opposite the kitchen windows, making it easy to move crockery etc outside. Inside was clean & well maintained, ample cupboard storage in the bedrooms, kitchen well equipped. Plenty privacy around the plot from outside streets, the only negative was the noise from traffic. Other than that this was a good find & can’t fault it in anyway, access to public transport is only 2 mins walk, as is the Aldi.
Hi Josie, thank you for the great review! We are happy you enjoyed your stay and appreciate your feedback :) Hopefully we can speak again for more holidays. Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: We had a lovely week with our family at Villa Coelha near Albufeira. The house has a great layout, is spacious and in a very good location. We hired cars and many beaches, restaurants, several supermarkets etc are very close by. We spent our final day 10 minutes away at Scooby’s pool bar, an excellent place to hang out before a late flight.
Hi Alison, Thank you for the lovely 5 star review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay at Villa Coelha and that it was in a great location for you! We would love to welcome you back again in the future :) Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo

Hi Lorna, we are happy you enjoyed your stay at Woodsmill View! Thank you for the amazing comments - we look forward to welcoming you back again :) Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: It was perfect. Away from others so we could make as much noise as we wanted. About a €10 uber into albufeira. A mile walk to the beach. Everything was clean and lots of activities to do near by - would recommend the Benagil caves kayaking.
Hi Tom, thank you for the 5 star review! We are glad your holiday with us was perfect and that the location was great for you. The photo looks amazing! We would love to speak again in the future :) Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: We stayed at the Apartment Mayah near Albufeira Marina and had the most amazing week. After booking with Ocholo it was absolutely seamless from start to finish, their communication was amazing and they gave us peace of mind to just look forward to our holiday knowing they had given us all the information needed. The apartment itself was extremely well equipped and furnished very nicely, making our stay there very comfortable. We also made extremely good use of the huge pool and lovely snack bar. The apartment was in such a lovely location minutes away from the stunning marina and about 15 min walk into the bustling old town. We will definitely use ocholo again.
Hi Emma, thank you for the lovely comments and the 5 star review - we really appreciate it! We are so glad you had a seamless holiday and we would love to speak again in the future :) Best Regards, Amaris - Ocholo

Fantastic experience: AMAZING Villa Stayed here for 1 week in June, there was a party of 8 of us, we loved every minute, only wish we could have stayed longer!!! Villa is so well equipped & spotlessly clean. We especially loved the additional fridge freezer in the kitchen and the fantastic bbq area. Pool & out door seating area also fab. The management are on the ball and so helpful if you need anything The villa is situated within walking distance of a bakery, bar that serves food, Aldi and numerous fantastic restaurants. About 20 min walk to the beach but well worth it it’s beautiful. Could not fault this villa - would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Had gorgeous beaches only 15 minute walk away.

It’s just on the outskirts of the town which made it nice, quiet and peaceful. can’t complain!!

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience booking a villa with Ocholo through airbnb. My point of contact Lynne was very friendly and informative! The villa was exactly as described and very much worth the money. Ocholo was there for me before, during and after my stay to answer any questions. Amazing customer service. Definitely recommend
Thank you Charley-Ann for your lovely comments, especially about our customer service! It has been a pleasure, hopefully we will see you again soon. Best Regards, Amaris- Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Our stay at Villa Vida was amazing. The villa is modern, very spacious with every room having its own large balcony, very clean, and had the biggest swimming pool and deck area we've had to date in any villa we've stayed at. There was 8 in our group and with each bedroom having its own ensuite there was no queueing for showers etc. The kitchen has all modern appliances so great for staying in a few nights and cooking dinner with the family. Location was great also as it was a 10 minute walk to either Lidl or Aldi and a 15 minute walk to the Old Town. Ocholo, the villa agents were excellent dealing with any questions, queries I had. Specials thanks to Lynne at Ocholo who was always just a text away and catered to my elderly family's needs. I would definitely return to Villa Vida.
Thank you Elaine for your fantastic review of Villa Vida in Portugal, we really appreciate your lovely comments. It was a pleasure dealing with you and we hope to welcome you again soon to one of our Ocholo villas. Best regards - Lynne, Amaris and Carmo at Ocholo!
Fantastic experience: Lynne and Josefa were extremely responsive hosts, Josefa even let us know of a local wine festival which was on whilst we were visiting which was really thoughtful. The townhouse was in an excellent location, with the main square only 5 minute walk away. We parked in a free car park which was close by and walked to the accommodation. There was a good selection of glassware and options so ate breakfast and lunch in the courtyard most days. Fun weekend with friends with the added bonus of a pool!
Thank you Nicci for your lovely review of Sienna Townhouse, isn't it beautiful. We are so glad you had a lovely stay in Pollenca Old Town. Hopefully we will welcome you back very soon! Best regards - Lynne, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Great location with wonderful views of the river, great facilities, very clean and comfortable.
Thank you for leaving us a review of Woodsmill View Apartment - glad you had a nice stay! Hopefully will welcome you back again soon, Lynne
Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend this apartment enough, it is done to an extremely high standard, with excellent facilities. The location is fantastic too, close to the station and minster but not so close that you have noise etc… The hosts, Oliver & Lynne, were great too and answered any question i had before hand almost immediately. Next time i am in york i will be booking again (hopefully its free)
Thanks for the kind words Mark and we will hopefully welcome you again soon then! Been a pleasure. Best regards, Lynne - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: A wonderful apartment! Will definitely go back. Great location right on the river. Ochole (Lynne) were so great when we had a few suggestions to improve it even further and extremely friendly. Clean, well- equipped and a very lovely few days away. Thank you!
Thank you for your lovely review, we do really work hard to please and it was nice to talk with you - we are making some little improvements and it will enhance our apartment even more! Best regards, Lynne - Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Villa Vida is beautiful! As a family of 5 we had the most incredible week! The Villa is well equipped, clean and everything just seemed new!! Every bedroom has its own balcony and beautiful bathroom. The location is quiet and everything is in just a moment away! Lynne at Ocholo was amazing - highly recommend!! If I could give any recommendations for improvement - Table Tennis would be awesome and a hoover!!!
Hi Imogen, Thank you so much for the wonderful 5 star review and the lovely comments! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Villa Vida, and that you had an incredible holiday. We do appreciate your feedback and will definitely take it onboard :) We hope to speak again in the future! Best Regards, Amaris Ocholo
Fantastic experience: We had a week in Villa Das Oliveiras in Albufeira. The weather was awful but the villa was wonderful, spacious and comfortable. It is situated in a quiet area but only about 15 minutes walk to the Marina, with lots of bars and restaurants. There are some lovely restaurants within a few minutes walk of the villa as well. Sadly we did not get to use the pool much due to the weather. Communication with Ocholo was easy and they really did go the extra mile to try to accommodate any of our special requests. I would have no hesitation in stopping at this villa again if I was in Portugal and I will look at other Ocholo accommodations when planning my next holiday.
Hi Dermot, Thank you for the lovely 5 star review! We are so happy you had a comfortable stay and that the villa was wonderful. Thank you for the great comments, we cannot wait to welcome you back again :) Best Regards, Amaris Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Stayed 8 days in April 2024. Great villa, location is wonderful. inside and outside space is perfect. Short walk to Lidl and Aldi, 15 min walk to old town. If I had to be really picky the wifi speed was a little slow for 3 kids streaming devices (we had some rainy days)! And the beds were a little hard. Other than that I can’t fault the villa at all.
Hi Mark, Thank you for the amazing 5 star review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay and that the villa was in a great location for you! In regards to the wifi, we have the best we possibly can in the area - three kids streaming at the same time may have pushed it over the edge! :) We hope to welcome you back to either this location or to one of our other destinations, Best Regards, Amaris Ocholo
Fantastic experience: First time booking a villa and Lynne at ocholo made the whole process seamless! Villa was clean and pictures matched up to the real thing. Small hiccup with an extra but was sorted immediately with no real hassle. Would 100% book a Villa through ocholo again really positive experience
Hi Courtney, We are so glad that you you enjoyed your first holiday with us! Thank you for the recommendation, we hope to book more holidays for you in the future! Best Regards, Amaris Ocholo
Fantastic experience: The chalet was great for us (spacious, tranquil) and the service with Ocholo is amazing - After checking out on Saturday of the Easter weekend, our car broke down. 6 hours of waiting around, only to we find out that we couldn't get home to Spain. Within an hour of emailing her, Lynne had found us another chalet to stay in for the Easter weekend. Again, a lovely chalet, well located and at a great price. Life saver! Thanks so much!
Hi Sarah, Thank you for such a lovely review, we are happy you enjoyed your stay and that the villa was great for you! We are so glad that our service helped you out during such a difficult situation :) Hopefully we can book another great holiday for you in the future, Sarah (minus the car breaking down!). Best Regards, Amaris Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Gorgeous apartment with a sea view, perfect getaway. Everything you could need for the perfect break. Definitely recommend.
Thank you Jayne for your stay in Filey with Ocholo. We are glad you had a lovely time, all the beachfront properties are just stunning for the views of the bay aren't they. We hope to welcome you back again soon, Lynne -Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Beautiful apartment, lovely view over the river, warm and comfortable, and the owners were extremely helpful and provided us with lots of information
Hi Rachel, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We do hope to welcome you back again with us. Thanks for the kind comments. :) Lynne, Ocholo

Positive experience: Had a lovely time at the Christmas market in york. The apartment was excellent and close walking distance to the city centre. Merry Christmas
Thank you for your review for Woodsmill View in York Trevor! Glad you had a lovely christmassy stay with us! Hopefully we will welcome you back!
Fantastic experience: We had an amazing holiday in Portugal and that was down to the amazing service and assistance from Lynne at Ocholo. The communication before, during and after our holiday was exceptional and made the holiday completely stress free. Nothing was too much trouble. Lynne was more than happy to organise our transfers and liaise with the owners regarding check in/out and small issues with the electrics which were swiftly resolved. Many thanks to Ocholo. I would highly recommend them!
Thank you so much Dan for this review - we really do try to provide the best service so this really means a lot to receive a review like this! Hopefully we will speak again for more holidays! Best regards Lynne
Fantastic experience: The villa was stunning and very spacious. In addition, the area was lovely and so were the beaches nearby in Albufeira. Lynne was fabulous in helping us book our stay and went out of her way to ensure everything was as seamless as it could be. I would fully recommend using Ocholo for booking your next holiday. Luke
Thank you Luke for your lovely review. Was a pleasure speaking to you and we hope to welcome you back again soon to one of our villas! Lynne, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Wonderful location beautiful spotlessly clean apartment. Met some lovely people can thoroughly recommend this place if you want to be in the heart of York but in a quiet location. Apartment has everything in it and so lovely warm and comfortable. Can't wait to come back. Ohh and the Christmas tree thank you what a thoughtful touch
Thank you Nicole for your lovely review of Woodsmill View. Glad you had a lovely christmassy stay with us, and liked our tree :) Come back soon, to York, Filey, or one of our overseas villas! Lynne, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: We spent a long weekend at beachfront crescent house and we were completely impressed by the sea view apartment. The views were stunning, you could see right to bemptom cliffs and had the most amazing outlook to sea. The apartment was well equipped with everything you should need while holidaying and the bed was one of the best I have slept in. The apartment was spotlessly clean and smelt clean too. Because there were apartments above and below we expected a bit of noise but, no it was so peaceful. We were sad to leave and we will definitely be booking again as we holiday in filey every year. Thank you for having us
Thanks Andrea for your lovely review - glad you had a lovely time in Filey with us. Hopefully we shall speak to you again soon and get you back there! Best regards Lynne
Fantastic experience: Villa Helene (Norville B) was exceptional! Thank you Lynne and Ocholo for a fabulous holiday, start to finish. The Villa was immaculate with every detail thought of. The rooms are huge and all en suite, with modern decor- beautifully furnished. Super secure, behind electronic gates, the Villa is also equipped with electric shutters. The pool is big and provided great fun for all the family. The outdoor bbq was great and provided us with a great alternative to eating out. A fabulous location, close to the most beautiful beaches I have ever visited. Praia de Galé was our favourite but the bar at Praia de Manuel Lourenço was a true find. Local and friendly, with a beautiful hidden cove to look out over. Sao Domingos is a fabulous restaurant and is easily walkable - 10 minutes. The local pastelería provided us with our daily pastel de natas and cakes (less than 5 minute walk). There is also an Aldi within waking distance (less than 10 mins). We took my parents this time and they absolutely LOVED revisiting Portugal and the various places we went as a family when I was a child. They will for sure be comping with us again. Thank you so much for our much needed vacation! Louise
Wow thank you Louise for such a wonderful review of Villa Helene Norvilla. It’s been a pleasure speaking to you and we will hopefully send you off on another fabulous holiday! Thank you very much Lynne Ocholo
Fantastic experience: An amazing, lovely place to stay in York. Lynne was so incredibly helpful with all of my questions (and there was lots!). An apartment with a great location & spectacular views. We will definitely return as we had such a great time!
Thanks Elise so much for your review - its been a pleasure speaking to you and I hope that we can talk again for more holidays! Best regards Lynne Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Beautiful villa in private estate. The pictures online are exactly as it still is and it has wow factor for sure. It is well equipped (although we didn't really cook there). Local shops are a 20 min walk/5 min drive and there are a few bars and restaurants. Host greeted us and looked after us throughout. We couldn't figure out how to turn on the fire (this is a high tech house!) and they came over to show us. One thing to be aware of is that the upper floors of this house have a glass floor - we quickly got used to it but it might freak out anyone with a fear of heights - but there is a bedroom that doesn't need you to walk on it. It's super cool but can be strange. I'd also recommend not paying for pool heating - we did and it didn't make much difference as the pool is so large and parts are always in the shade.
Thank you so much Angela for leaving us such a fantastic review. Villa Orla Deluxe is stunning, isn't it. I hope that we can welcome you back to one of our villas again soon Angela, Best regards - Lynne, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: My partner and I recently had a weekend stay at Woodsmill View. It's a fantastic location in central York on the banks of the River Ouse. A very comfortable apartment, too. We highly recommend it and will very likely stay there again.
Hi Emma, Thank you so much for your review of Woodsmill View Apartment in York! So glad you had a great time, and we look forward to welcoming you back again! Thank you for recommending us, speak soon I hope - Lynne, Ocholo
Fantastic experience: Lynne and her group from Ocholo did a tremendous job assisting in arranging our golf trip to Portugal. Lynne arranged for 3 spectacular villas on the beach. Transportation to and from the various golf courses and many other logistics for our trip. Our entire experience was wonderful and everything went like clockwork in terms of transportation and the like. We were absolutely thrilled with the job Lynne and her group provided to us and cannot recommend Ocholo highly enough if you are considering a vacation to the area.
Thank you ever so much Bob for your feedback, and your review. We shall hopefully speak again, and your extra comments and help/advice with our services that we can offer has been fantastic. Glad you had a wonderful holiday and enjoyed the villas in Olhos D'Agua. Thank you again, Lynne

Positive experience: We had a wonderful time celebrating my husbands 60th. Villa was clean & loved that everyone had plenty of room to cook , eat & swim . Only thing i would suggest is a few extra toilet rolls in bathrooms & garbage bags. We had one small garbage bag under the sink to do everyone’s garbage until i could get to the stores . other than that location was great a short uber ride into Old Town or Beaches . Golf courses all near which my husband was thrilled about . i would definitely use again . Thank you
Thank you for your review Jacqueline we really appreciate it. We do leave a toilet roll in each bathroom and a bin bag in each bin. We will take your feedback on board of course. Thank you so much and we hope to welcome you back again soon! Best regards Lynne - Ocholo

Fantastic experience: We booked this villa as a surprise for my mum's 70th. There were 13 of us staying. When we arrived, they had left a lovely card and sparkling wine for mum. Our host Lynne was great, easy to deal with, and very helpful. The villas were spacious and clean, with everything we needed. Local amenities were great, and supermarket was 2 minutes walk. I would definitely book again. Thanks, Lynne and the staff. We had a ball.

Fantastic experience: Lovely spacious villa in a quiet area. Pool is large and easy access steps into it. We used Ubers to go anywhere and they are cheap and reliable. Youngest in our group was 4 years old and oldest was 71 and it was great for everyone. Nice large outside space and shaded terrace. Large well kitted out kitchen and large dining room and lounge.
Thank you Alison for your review of Villa Das Oliveiras. Isn't it a great outdoor space! Huge plot! Hopefully you will come again with us for your next holiday, best regards - Lynne, Ocholo
