Ellie and her team at Praia Club are… Ellie and her team at Praia Club are among the most thorough, professional and personable organizations I’ve had the pleasure to work with and I’ve work with many companies over the years. Their knowledge, patience and organizational skills are top notch. My husband and I would have been running in circles trying to get accomplished what Ellie and her team did in a short manner time and at an extremely fair price. If your thinking of moving to Portugal or Europe and are seeking professional expertise I highly recommend Praia Club. Rose Marie Flawinne

Extremely prompt, helpful and competent I am so happy that I have had the pleasure of using the Praia Club. They are always prompt, cheerful and give the correct information. With their help I was able to get my D7 Visa to Portugal in record time! I'm very grateful.

Taking 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.

It is a pleasure working with the Praia… It is a pleasure working with the Praia Club team. I am in the process of emigrating to Europe from the UK. I am being professionally guided every step of the way. Nothing is too much trouble, the team are friendly, highly competent and supportive in what I experience as a very stressful process. Their communication is accurate and timely including, in my case, face2face help. The Facebook site, ‘Expats moving to Portugal’ run by Ellie Rose, is the only one I recommend to others as I can guarantee it always contains accurate information - a rarity on the internet. I can honestly say that my experience with Praia Club has been refreshingly honest and 100% positive. I’d recommend them to anyone planning a relocation to Europe. They are truly a breath of fresh air.

Warning: Negative Experience with Praia Club Immigration Website I regret to inform you about my extremely disappointing experience with Praia Club. Approximately two months ago, I made an advance payment of 2300 EUR as requested by Praia Club for their services. However, despite fulfilling their requirements, I have yet to receive any assistance or updates regarding my immigration process. Furthermore, after completing the payment, Praia Club inexplicably blocked me and ceased all communication. Despite numerous attempts to reach out to them, they have ignored my messages and failed to provide any explanation or resolution. In light of this experience, I will be initiating a dispute with my bank to seek a refund for the payment made to Praia Club. I urge others to exercise caution and avoid falling victim to similar fraudulent practices.
