Real estate & rental management

We’ll visit your home every week. We will air the house, check all lights and flush all toilets and sinks. Additionally, we will check your alarm system and air-conditioning every year.

Pool maintenance

Not every swimming pool is the same, that’s why for us, there isn’t a one size fits all maintenance protocol. Therefore, we use a personalised approach for each home that comes into our care. We’ll check the water parameters weekly and clean the filters and swimming pool.

Garden maintenance

Besides weekly garden maintenance, we also take great care of your flowers and plants and keep an eye on bigger pruning jobs. We’ll also help with the construction and improvement of your garden and irrigation system.

Renovations

For years, we’ve been working together closely with several professionals, to help guide renovations and remodeling of the houses in our care. We manage your project and take care of all communication and any financial affairs.

Other Activities

We love to help you with any aspects of getting and keeping your home in the best shape. From the process of leasing to administrative proceedings. We are proactive, solution-oriented and forward-thinking.

Nice to meet you!

We are Don and Frederieke, from Gaivota Homes. In 2012, we moved to Portugal, and started taking care of a family member’s holiday home. We did this with a lot of pleasure and care. So much, so that nowadays we take care and own up to 20 properties in the Algarve. We manage holiday homes in and around the cities of Loulé, Quarteira, Faro, Vilamoura and Albufeira. We know the area well and are more than familiar with the Portuguese way of life. We’d love to tell you more about what exactly we do precisely, and all things concerning the letting of your (holiday)home in Portugal.

Family van der Wel
Property Owner

In the past we’ve had several managers for our house, Casa Azul, but never such as good. Gaivota Homes is helping us for over 8 years now and they do all the actions for us, such as carrying out maintenance, making payments, arranging contracts with suppliers, including checking this, renting out our house and handling municipal obligations. Gaivota Homes ensures that our house and garden receive proper attention. It therefore always looks great.
And last but not least, your rate is very competitive and even low for all the work you have done for us.

Family van Holten
Property Owner

We rented a villa through Gaivota Homes in 2019, after having some problems at the Villa, Don was very dedicated to comfort us and solve the problems as soon as he could. He solved the issues we had with a broken bore hole pump very fast and gave us a really nice bottle of wine to compensate for the hassle. For us this was not necessary but a very nice gesture.
