New Year's in the Algarve
Very nice stay. House is walking distance to the beach. House also has a nice heated pool. The game room with pool table, fussbal etc is a good fun too. Just need to be aware that too many plugged appliances together with the oven may trip the fuse board (all houses in Portugal are like that, i.e. they do not get approval for high power fuse boards due to the Portuguese regulations). Apart from that all positive experience.

A beautiful villa in the Algarve
The house was great! It was beautiful, spacious and had everything needed for a stay for multiple people. We paid to have the pool heated, which was definitely worth it. It was very well used by kids and adults alike. The rooms were very nice - all with ensuite bathrooms. The house is in a good location. About 15 minutes walk to the beautiful Sao Rafael beach. The quickest way into town is via Uber - taking 5-10 minutes. We would gladly recommend staying here.

Lekker ruim
Heerlijk huis met zo’n en schaduw plekken. Jammer dat het koffiezetapparaat kapot was, ( zelf moeten maken) en ook erg klein voor 10 personen. Nu waren de kopjes ook klein. Dus dat scheelde. Strand op loopafstand en restaurant in dichtbij zijnde hotel is aan te bevelen. 6 cocktails als proeverij. Leuk concept.

Nice property
Great property in a good location, nice pool, clean and spacious. Some small issues such as not enough parasols, squeaking beds and other small faults. I think they should fix the small issues as the villa is very nice and these impact the rating.

Amazing week
Thank you for an amazing week. Sandra was fantastic in booking transfers and day trips for all of us. Olivia answered any question I had straight away The villa is beautiful with amazing space inside with a great games room that was used every evening after we had got home. The pool was a great choice for the whole family who had lots of fun. Would definitely book again. Would highly recommend.

August 31st - 7th September
Lovely villa ideal for our group of 10:adults and a 4 year old. The pool and patio area and bbq and eating space outside were well used and were just like the photos as were the rest of the pictures and info. Spacious kitchen but we bbq’d or tended to eat out rather than cook. Plenty of fridge/freezer space though there was a leak on the one fridge which we reported. Games room was well used too. We walked to several local beaches and to the marina although others may prefer to use an Uber. The property suited us all very well. Thanks to Sandra who dealt promptly with our queries and sorted out our transfers home.

Family Holiday
The villa suited all ages with lots of space. The pool was great as was the games room downstairs. Lovely views. Only problem was proximity to centre of Albufeira- 40 minute walk or taxi. Good nearby bar. Supermarkets only small and expensive. Overall, though everyone had a great holiday.

Casa otima para um grupo de amigos
Gostámos bastante da casa. Tem umas áreas ótimas, uma cozinha espetacular com uma mesa enorme e ligação ao exterior onde havia outra mesa grande. Os quartos são todos em suite o que é fantástico e há uma grande sala de jogos/estar no piso inferior onde se pode jogar, ver tv e conviver. A única coisa menos boa é o jardim, porque para o tamanho da casa é bastante pequeno, sem zona de lazer de relva. Tem uma boa piscina com imensas camas para apanhar sol. Mas como a distância a pé da praia é curta, nada melhor que ir até à praia.

Booked this the day after lockdown lifted for Portugal but we were a bit concerned about this trip. This was fully booked before corona and I know why, so we were lucky it was available for us. The pool and the little garden are fantastic. The accommodation was just like the photos and had everything you need to make your stay go smoothly. The villa is near various beaches but we had a car so going everywhere was not a problem. We would stay here again 100% and would highly recommend it. Thanks for everything and keep up the great work because we will defo be back.
