Beware of Praia Club: Unreliable Service and Lack of Communication I recently engaged Praia Club's services to assist with my D8 visa application, for which I paid a hefty sum of 2300 EUR upfront. However, my experience with them has been nothing short of disappointing and frustrating. Despite my initial optimism, I have encountered nothing but silence and unresponsiveness from Praia Club. After making the payment, I have received no updates, no acknowledgment of receipt, and no response to my numerous attempts to reach out to them for clarification or assistance. Furthermore, I want to make it clear that I will not hesitate to open a dispute with my bank to seek a refund for the payment made to Praia Club. Additionally, I am prepared to involve law enforcement authorities to address this matter and hold Praia Club accountable for their negligence and poor service.

Dream Maker I'm typically not a man of many words, but, on this occasion, I must make an exception. Elizabeth Sanches is the most amazing person I've never met in person. We've had numerous conversations though. We've been on an excursion, an adventure to fulfill my dream of moving to Portugal. My first visit to Portugal was in 1996 and from that time on, I knew I wanted, I needed to live here. Shortly after my fathers passing in April of 2022, and after going through the will and other fun family stuff, we began the process in earnest in 2023. Her expertise, her professionalism, her knowledge, her husband Marco and her team of experts performed extrordinarily. Her compassion, her understanding of complex situations, her patience. All remarkable. She has made my dream come true. I will turn 65 in November. What a precious gift she has given to me.

Excellent advice and guidance Excellent advice and guidance from Ellie. Very surprised to see 3 identical negative reviews from people with only one review each, and amazed TP doesn't do more to filter such obvious fake reviews.

Ellie and Marco are the BEST. Ellie and Marco are the BEST. My wife and I moved from Florida and Ellie and Marco help make the journey possible. They handled EVERYTHING * Found our apartment in Vilamoura while we were still in the US * Secured our NIF * Changed our address to process our NIF * Established our Economic Activity * Opened our bank account * Got our utilities set-up Their professionalism and kindness are true blessings. There is no way we could have made the move without them. Their knowledge and ability to maneuver throughout the Portugal bureaucracy are invaluable. We absolutely love Portugal and can't thank Ellie and Marco enough for making this adventure possible. Mario Borysiewicz

Ellie Rose and Praia Club are PHENOMENAL!!! Ellie Rose and Praia Club are PHENOMENAL!!!! Moving to another country is the most significant decision one or a family can make. From January-March, the application process (for us it was a very dense documented experience), legal issues, tax structures questions and pet transport connections, Ellie Rose became our guide and our muse and held our hands through it ALL. When I woke up in the middle of the night with “Oh my goodness what about….” she was there. When my mind persevered on, “But what if…” questions in the early evening (Ellie Rose’s middle if the night) she was there. WHEN I sent stupid memes about my anxiety she was there and she laughed! I relied on Ellie Rose’s expertise and moral support so much so that I had to take on the moacer, The Badger! Even now that our application process is over, we will continue to rely on Praia Club for NHR and tax prep services. Thank you, Ellie Rose! Much gratitude, The Badger.
