Casa Leao - Lovely 4 bedroom villa, tucked away down a quiet lane
This lovely villa is tucked away down a quiet lane, set in a landscaped garden overlooking an unspoilt valley of farmland and orchards. Facing both south and west, its secluded location gives complete privacy, although there are neighbours, so Leão does not feel isolated. It would be difficult to find a more attractive exterior - paved terraces on different levels lead down to the pool terrace (care should be taken with very young children). Cool, marble floors lead from the main rooms to the shaded terrace with a large barbecue area at one end which has distant sea views.
The villa is a ten minute drive from numerous beaches and the centre of Albufeira and even nearer to Pateo and Guia with several good restaurants. The interior takes advantage of the lovely views down the valley with the coast in the distance. Each bedroom has a terrace or balcony overlooking the countryside. The well designed, fully equipped kitchen has a convenient breakfast area in addition to the formal dining room. The principal rooms are unusually light and spacious and the house is furnished with a mixture of local and Asian furniture.

We had a fantastic week long stay at Casa Leao. The location of the villa is great easily accessible to the airport, villamoura and albufeira by car. The villa it self is beautiful with amazing views. The rooms are huge and the pool is massive also. The villa agency are very responsive to any issue we had and resolved them straight away. Would definitely stay again. Thanks Casa Leao!!
Gostamos muito desta propriedade , a piscina é excelente e a zona de churrasco também ! Corresponde exatamente às imagens exceto q informação sobre camas de casal , que não está de acordo sendo que apenas um dos quartos tem cama de casal e os outros são camas de solteiro , o que não estávamos a contar (deveriam atualizar está info na descrição ).
No geral foi uma ótima experiência, local bastante isolado mas perto do algarveshopping . As praias ficam um pouco mais longe mas nada impossível .
Casa excelente, boas áreas, boa limpeza, zona tranquila, paisagem campestre muito bonita de campo. Os único pontos a melhorar é que a propriedade deveria estar mais vedada, pois diáriamente tinha visitas de vários “cães vadios” e os quartos deveriam ter ar condicionado.
The location is beautiful: secluded with great vistas and yet close enough (15 min) to the beach by car (which is a must). The house tries to stay true to typical Algarve architecture and is nicely appointed: the kitchen is very well equipped (2 refrigerators) and it has 4 en suite bathrooms. The pool and adjoining terraces complete the idyllic picture.
On the downside, the communication between the owners and the local manager was less than ideal. The local folks were not expecting us and the house was not ready - something that was remedied immediately with a phone call. If you're taking kids note that the internet is spotty and the TV was not working properly (and nothing was done to fix it despite a request.) This did not deter from the great experience, quite on the contrary: the kids spent less time on the TV and more time playing with the well-mannered dog that visits daily. Would definitely come back.
The house is great - ample, many different areas allow for multiple activities, wonderful views too. Plenty to visit nearby.
A bit let down by the lack of cleaning essentials. We had to ask for soap. No kitchen towels or any other cleaning product provided. Cleaning ladies would not do the kitchen. Also one toilet flush was broken and never got fixed despite having reported it.
But we enjoyed our stay and would come back. I just think the house deserves a better attention to those little details. Posting it here expecting that future visitors will get it right.
Très belle villa . Correspond à l’identique aux photos sur le site !
Décoration raffinée .
Tout a été pensé au niveau de l’équipement !
Prévoir tout de même une voiture qui est indispensable avec le choix de cet emplacement !
Seul petit bémol , il est indiqué qu’une femme de ménage passerait plusieurs fois ! Elle est venu qu’une seule fois mais nous n’avons pas compris sa venue puisque les draps et serviettes n’ont pas été changés , les traces au sol sont restées , la poubelle non changée alors que nous avons dû sortir 2h pour la laisser faire .
Cela nous a absolument pas empêché de passer de bonnes vacances .
Nous avons eu en + la venue tout au long du séjour d’une chienne adorable .
Excelente moradia para se passar uns dias de férias. Boa localização, local sossegado, paisagem bonita, excelentes condições. Adorámos a cadelinha que nos visitava diariamente. Voltaremos!
