Buying a Villa In Carvoeiro – Pac4Portugal

Posted on February 20, 2016 by pac4portugal

Pac4Portugal has extended its network and services by teaming up with a UK nationwide and Algarve Estate agency to offer clients more properties to buy. We can also offer more land opportunities if you wish to build a new traditional or contemporary villa.

At Pac4Portugal we only team up with businesses that can deliver the same “Personal Service, Local Knowledge”, while delivering quality over quantity. Each new association is specially vetted and only after we feel they meet our list of requirements are we happy to introduce our own clients.

How does Pac4Portugal Benefit?

We are continually working hard to develop our “Whole Property Package” which for a holiday rental client or a property owner. Some of our rental clients naturally progress to wanting to own their own second home/rental investment. We need to be assured that these clients we have built a good rapport with are looked after in a seamless manor as though we are all part of the same team.

For our own clients and new clients via the estate agency we are able to offer our services to either build/extend or renovate their new purchase. From day one of their purchase the Pac4Portugal Team can offer our dedicated Property Management Services, Accounting & Fiscal Services, Construction and Landscaping as well as experienced Property Rental Team. Thus allowing the clients peace of mind and removing some of the stress associated with buying a property.

Need more advice

We have great associations with architects, banks and lawyers if you need extra help with purchasing your new property.

A Little History

Our property rental section of Pac4Portugal was established initially in February 2006, some 10 years ago, under http://www.villa-in-carvoeiro.com. We thought about what we disliked when booking our own holidays and how we could improve this. We hated booking a holiday and when speaking to the travel agent you knew they were just reading from a brochure. So 10 years ago our first and foremost objective was to deliver personal service while utilising our local knowledge.

Some Feedback

Do not just take our word for it, you can read our reviews on our website, many happy customers

“We (parents and 4 daughters ages 11-17) have recently had 10 days of fantastic time in Carvoeiro – Algarve, Portugal. Our whole experience from booking to returning home was well organised without worries and hassle. This was mostly due to Alex Cracknell – PAC Portugal who initially tailored our requirements to our budget and organised a Villa with a pool in an excellent family friendly location. Additionally, the transfer company that was organised by PAC Portugal provided us with a friendly and caring transportation.”

For us it is important that we get to know the properties we are advertising, along with the surrounding amenities and experiences. We encourage all our clients to ask as many questions as they need before booking, we want you to be happy with their choice and in addition we offer more reassurance by letting you know part of the Pac4Portugal Team we be personally meeting you during your holiday.

We even take this a step further and where we have had multiple communication with potential clients, but were not able to help them on that occasion we arrange to meet them during their holidays to put a face to the emails and telephone conversations

Business Progression

In 2014 Pac4Portugal.com was launched as a more professional way to advertise. Our websites have never been searchable by date or for clients to book directly on them. We want our clients to contact us with their requirements and then we can advise them of the best options available and tailor make their rental requirements.

Is it just the English that we cater for?

Property owners ask us whether we only market to the English clients, the simple answer is no. Although our website is in English, our team in Portugal is multi-lingual and we advertise in Portugal in 2-4 languages as we recognise our extended market. We accommodate clients across Europe (UK, Ireland, Sweden, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy to name a few), North America, South America, Asia and Australasia. So pretty much across the world. The use of translate programs on the internet allows us to communicate better with different nationalities.

Most the properties are initially set up for the UK market, however with the use of the internet we are able to help other nationalities with some of their home TV comforts if needed

Social Media

We believe in keeping in contact with as many potential, new and repeat clients as possible. Like many businesses we find social media a very useful and instant way to communicate with them. Our Facebook page is updated on a daily basis with photos and any news, we have nearly 18,000 followers. We also use twitter, pinterest, instagram and many more, as well as catering for our more professional clients via Linkedin.

The Social Media allows us in the peak season to keep our finger on the pulse and share some of our experiences as well as inform people of what is on and any suggestions.

In addition we have a monthly newsletter that keeps our subscribers of all the latest news, changes, improvements, as well as offers

Smile and world smiles with you

Through offering our personal service from day one of contact whether with a rental client or an owner, we start to build a good rapport with clients. Many of our clients become friends over time. Some it is just great to catch up over a cuppa and others out of season we like to share a meal or an experience with them.

Proactive

At Pac4Portugal we are always looking to improve our rental portfolio, services and our clients experiences. Your feedback is important to us both about our services and your rental property.

Summary

Our aim at Pac4Portugal is make people feel special by helping they book the right properties for their important holiday requirements, as well giving them the local knowledge of the beauty and experiences that Carvoeiro/Algarve/Portugal has to offer.

Book your rental property in Carvoeiro/Lagoa/Silves with us once and Pac4Portugal will always then be your (your family/friends/colleagues) first stop on your search for next rental property.

With glorious sunshine and only a couple of hours flight time the Algarve is a perfect destination for you holidays or short breaks. Endless beaches and coves, good food and summer warmth, if you have not booked your 2015 Holiday in the Algarve, why not?

We have a great villa that for some reason always books a little later than the others, but once clients arrive they are more than pleased with the accommodation, settings and facilities. Casa Comprida is located just 2km from the centre of Carvoeiro, but there is a couple of restaurants much closer, including Restaurant Vale de Milho which has a great play area for the kids, and if you are not having a meal, its a nice place to have a drink while you call for a taxi.

Casa Comprida is a 4 bedroom villa with large 10m by 5m one depth heatable swimming pool. There are good terrace areas, both full sun and shaded so to cater for all needs. The mature garden is fully fenced and the only entrance is through electric gates down the drive. The villa has ample parking and is a perfect location for a large family, 2 families or a group of friends.

Lots of great feedback:

Refreshing the old, Villa in Carvoeiro still lives

Posted on January 15, 2015 by pac4portugal

A long long long time ago, well actually only 9 years our business started with the simple Frontpage website www.villa-in-carvoeiro.com (VIC). Our vision was to have all the information about a property on one simple page and to always deliver “Personal Service, Local Knowledge”. We just hated booking holidays with a company and you know that they are just reading from a brochure. It has and never will be a search website as we offer clients a more personal service. If you let us know your requirements, we can then point you in the right direction.

We also wanted to give clients a little information on the area, but not too much as the web has plenty of good places for this, in addition from time to time we would help promote local businesses who in turn promoted us.

In 2008, we became a Ltd and over the next few years evolved the websites and allowed clients to view more brochure style pictures through carvovillas.pacportugal.net and related websites.

In 2014 a star was born and we finally brought all the key elements of VIC to a new more professional website to meet the demand of owners and our clients- Pac4Portugal,com. It also allowed us to start looking at the way Google SEO worked and spend time and effort promoting. 2015 is looking promising with some great ways forward as we expand within our own sector of knowledge.

Over the past week and the next few weeks villa-in-carvoeiro.com is have a refresh with improvements on the pictures, the social media and some of the links, plus a few things in the background. With good google position and a google ranking VIC is here to stay. Some people prefer it as they like the retro, but that doesnt mean we can not deliver service. We have a good portfolio of websites and we do all the updates in house, so it can take time to keep them up to date. But you can follow us on a whole range of Social Media. So here’s to VIC and long may you reign!

Enjoy your family vacations in the Algarve in Style
