Villa magnifique !!
Les photos étaient conformes à la réalité et nous avons passé une super semaine de vacances. De l'équipement de la cuisine au barbecue, tout était réuni pour se préparer d'excellents repas avant de savourer la piscine. La déco, les literies, la propreté, le jardin, la place de parking, la situation géographique, tout était parfait de A à Z et notre hôte Paulo était très disponible et chaleureux. Nous souhaitons revenir profiter de cette superbe villa

Excellent Villa
An excellent villa set in a fantastic location close to everything. A car is required, however. The pool is fantastic and the photos don’t do the property justice. Good size rooms with air con and comfortable beds. Good bathrooms with decent showers. The property owners were fast to respond when needed and were professional and efficient. My only complaint is that check in was far too late in the day (4pm). We had two young children and when you have an early flight it’s not ideal when you can’t arrive at the villa until that late in the day, especially as we had enquired about an early check in upon booking some 8 months in advance. Overall a fantastic villa however and we would definitely consider staying again if we are in the area.

Outstanding villa
We only booked this villas days before arriving and was a little apprehensive, however we were blown away with everything! We managed to check in early which was great as we landed at 9.30am. From checkin to the details given about the villa were spot on. We were a family of 4 and the the villa was spacious, lovely and tastefully decorated. Everything was catered for the kitchen had everything you needed. The outside space was gorgeous from beautiful gardens to a good sized pool. The area was so peaceful and we enjoyed being a little away from the marina. We had a car but taxis were easy to book and arrived within 5-10 mins at just under €10. There was a spa shop which was close and good for fresh pastries etc. We would definitely recommend this and will definitely book again. Thank you

A repetir
A propriedade corresponde às fotografias. Muito bem conservada, bem decorada, estando equipada com o essencial, para se passar uma bela estadia, sem quaisquer preocupações. Muito bem localizada, em zona residencial de moradias. A repetir.... O único senão, não se prende propriamente com a habitação, mas com o facto da moradia vizinha ter sido alugada por família que em claro desrespeito pela zona residencial, ouvia música no jardim com coluna de grande saída sonora. Começaram de manhã, ouvindo música alto e bom som e à noite..... Felizmente que iniciaram só no sábado e a nossa estadia durou até Domingo, pois certamente arruinariam o sossego das nossas férias. Fica a referência, para ajudar a prevenir, se possível, no futuro, situações idênticas.

Super Haus! Wenn etwas nicht lief war der Verwalter sofort da und hat alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit erledigt. Einmal funktionierte die Waschmaschine nicht , einmal fiel der Strom aus und der Wäscheständer ist bei uns defekt geworden. Es war ein rundum schöner Urlaub

Vilamoura Holiday September 2019
1 week stay at the villa at the end of September. The villa was modern and clean and the pool and outdoor area was great. Only couple of issues were the beds which weren’t the comfiest and the freezer which wasn’t as cold as it should be. Other than that we had a brilliant week and would highly recommend.

Villamoura holiday for us South Africans
Everything was brilliant. Only 2 snags, one was a foul bad smell coming from main bathroom shower and secondly the lounge aircon didn't work. Unfortunately these 2 could not be resolved. The smell kept returning and the aircon couldn't be repaired, but apart from this still great and would give this place another visit.

Perfect family holiday
The villa is beautiful, modern, well equipped and in a quiet area but with all amenities close by. A car is recommended but not essential. We came as an extended family, grandparents, parents and two children and every one of us loves villa Machado. We would happily stay much longer. We had a minor issue with the boiler, but calls to the office resulted in someone coming out within half an hour. A friendly, efficient company to deal with. We would definitely recommend them and this villa. I hope to be back......

Lovely traditional Villa.
Villa had everything we needed with very well kept gardens and pool which was maintained twice in one week. Also cleaners visited twice in the week. Cleaners here do a smashing job, the villa was immaculately clean. (old kitchen requires updating but we never cook on holiday anyway). All three bedrooms are located together at one side of the villa, for those travelling with small children. We enjoyed the outside space both at front of villa in the mornings and Pool area in afternoons. Another huge bonus was the outside room, or covered patio area, this room leads from the kitchen to the pool gardens and is great for leaving towels, cream and clutter etc keeping the rest of the villa clutter free. I do think you need a car to stay here as the Marina is too far to walk. I would return to this lovely property, Vilamoura villa company is easy to deal with and quick responses to queries.

Un petit paradis
Je recommande vivement cette villa, nichée dans un quartier calme. La maison est grande, joliment meublée et parfaitement équipée. La propreté de la maison est irréprochable à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur. La seule chose que je ne recommande vraiment pas, le pack de bienvenue!!!!!! sa valeur de 55euros n'est pas justifié (un paquet de pain de mie, 4 micro tranches de jambon, un mini morceau de fromage, beurre, sachet de café instantané, 1lde lait, 1l de jus de fruits, 2 bières, sel et confiture, fruits) Il est préférable d'aller dans une épicerie ou pour moins de 25£ vous aurez les mêmes produits! En résumé la maison étant plus que parfaite dans son ensemble, je retire une étoile à mon évaluation pour le pack de bienvenue.

Exceptional Villa - better than imagined
Had a fantastic time at the villa, it is so well appointed, the sun shone on the pool all day. The villa was very well stocked and had absolutely everything needed for a great stay and was very comfortable. We will be booking for next year. We hired a car due to being just a bit outside of the main area of Vilamoura and driving on the other side was no problem. The marina is only a 10 min drive and has some great restaurants and a spar is only a few minutes down the road. Pool Staff and Cleaning Staff attended to the property whilst we were there and did an excellent job. From making the booking with Paulo to getting home everything went without a hitch and the welcome pack when we arrived was super. Many thanks.

Beautiful villa in a lovely location
We had a wonderful week staying at Villa Machado. The accommodation itself is extremely well maintained both inside and outside. The rooms are all very spacious with comfortable beds and beautiful bathrooms. The little summer room is great as you can eat your meals here when it is hot but still feel you are outside. The gardens are lovely with gorgeous plants and terraces. The pool was fantastic. We were so lucky with the weather that we were able to swim most days. It's a real suntrap here and you feel a million miles away from everywhere soaking up the sun on the sun loungers. Vilamoura is a great base for a stay in the Algarve. We visited Faro, Tavira, Ihla de Tavira and the lovely beach Praia de Falaisia by the marina. We also drove to the villages of Querenca and Alte which are beautiful small towns inland and definitely worth exploring. - they are not too far away We also headed west to Cabo de San Vicente and Praia Da Almeiria. The staff at Vilamoura Villas are extremely helpful. The food welcome pack really was welcome on our arrival after our flight with everything we needed for a supper and breakfast the next day. Paolo was brilliant at communicating with us before our visit, answering all our initial queries. Fernando was very helpful showing us the villa and in dealing with our check-out. All in all a wonderful holiday. We would highly recommend Villa Machado as a fantastic family villa and Vilamoura Villas as a highly professional company.

Awesome and impressiv Villa in a quiet place
This Villa is one of my favourites. The village where it is located is very modern and appointed with very nice neigbourhoods. The Villa was very, but very clean. From point of hygiene I would give full points for this Villa. The furnitures are not the most moderns but like said very clean. The bad is very modern. The only lack on this Villa is that there is missing a little bit sunlight in floor. The best of all is the garden within the pool. FANTASTIC. On balance very good holidays in this Villa. Absolut relaxing on the pool. Car is needed but the supermarkets are not so far. Around 5 minutes with car. Also Vilamoure Marina is not so far whre you can go in the evening to have fun. Finally I want to thanx Paulo for his support. I had few wishes and he was very pleasured to fullfil them. Kind regards from Frankfurt

A lovely property with everything you could need as a family. The pool and Garden excellent too.
Very happy with the property and the location. Get safe with the gated front. We chose this because we wanted somewhere with a private pool and a nice garden, so this was perfect for our family. We visited with 5 adults and 2 small children. The property had 3 parasols, so that made me happy to be able to keep the kids in the shade!

Myself my partner and 3 small boys stayed at this villa and it was perfect for us . there was a large garden to the front and a beautiful swimming pool at the back which gave the kids lots of room play and run around . the house inside was decorated to a high standard and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need . The pictures of the bathrooms do not match what is in the house as they has been redone . the bathrooms were like something from a 5 star hotel . We did have one incident where the pipe from the dishwasher broke and leaked water into the kitchen but with one call the agent had someone in the house within half an hour and it was fixed with absolutly no fuss , which was fantastic . the area is nice and quite and night and there a cleaning service which came twice during the week we stayed there who were quick and efficent and very friendly . We will definitly be renting this villa again and would recommend it to anyone .

Fantastic villa!
We went to Vilamoura for a nice relaxing holiday and that is exactly what we got. The villa was exactly what we were looking for with all the amenities we needed. There was a slight smell from the en suite drain, but we spoke to Paulo and he came round that day to fix it. The only thing the villa didn't have was a net for the swimming pool to scoop the leaves that had fallen from the tree out, but again when I mentioned this to Paulo he sent someone out the next morning. The cleaners came in 3 times a week and were lovely. I have already recommended this villa to my friends and family and we are hoping to come back again next year! Thanks again for all your help and for the use of this lovely villa!

Holiday Revies - Villa Machado
Overall we throughly enjoyed the villa, it was comfortable, spacious, lovely location and the pool and garden very nice. The listing was accurate, very clean and we recieved excellent service of the maid during our stay. The only little downsides, the beds are a little hard and also there are a few large dogs in the area that are very noisy at times. But overall I would book again and also recommend to friends. Thanks
