GBTaking the guess work out of the Portuguese Visa and Residency Permit process. When starting to prepare our Portugal Visa documents and subsequent meeting with the AIMA I quickly recognized the magnitude of the project. The Praia Club came highly recommended. Clearly, the decision to hire them was the very best for us. During our very first phone conversation she outlined their process and described the in-depth spreadsheet to keep us on track. She gave me the confidence that the Praia Club team understood exactly what was needed for us to successfully obtain our Visa and subsequent residency permit. Consistently Elizabeth was quick to respond to my questions. For example we were uncertain about the level of detail to supply with financial reports. And her team corrected our misunderstanding about whether a contract to purchase a home was sufficient or whether we needed to supply the deed. The answer was not accessible from online sources or from our realtor. She stayed current with the forms and any process changes made by the SEF that impacted our application, and her legal team was available to interpret requirements I found confusing. We were assisted every step along the way from our Visa application through the meeting to obtain the residency permit. Our success was the result of our wise decision to hire the Praia Club. I highly recommend the Praia Club to take the guess work out of the multiple document requirements and preparation for the meetings needed to live in Portugal.

GBEllie 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

GBEllie 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.

DEAll I can say is wow! All I can say is wow!! With tight deadlines and high stakes Elizabeth and Marco worked magic. They know the Portuguese bureaucratic system inside and out. They are well connected from the legal to the immigration side. In Portugal things are all about having good relationships and they know how to connect and make it a pleasurable experience for everyone involved. Most importantly was their dedication. When one door closed for us they were quick to find alternative options that were as good or better than the original. Long story short, we made our deadlines and are happy campers.
