HIDEAWAY, GALE

Spacious and relaxing location. Plenty of space and swimming pool was great for everyone. Gale is a very relaxing area. Not too busy with good varied restaurants. Amazing beach which we should have taken greater advantage of. Would stay again Air-conditioning could do with an upgrade and service as not in all bedrooms

A must! The Hideaway Villa was outstanding for our stay in the Algarve area. We were 4 women and having our own berry with ensuite was perfect. The Villa was clean, comfortable & very spacious. We loved the space outside from morning to night. It is a very easy walk to the beach which has amazing hiking trails. Having a car is ideal and grocery stores (Aldi’s best) and fabulous restaurants are very close by. Exploring the Algarve from this gorgeous villa is the best as you are about an hour from Sagres, 40 minutes to Lagos and 10 minutes to Albufeira It is also an easy drive to the Faro airport. Everything worked very well; wifi, water heat, laundry… We felt extremely safe and loved our time at The Hideaway! Note that you do need to provide your own toilet paper, basic kitchen items (salt, pepper, garbage bags…). Knowing this ahead will help you with your shop. Book now!

Perfect holiday holiday villa for young family

On our arrival to the villia they kindly left the essentials milk bread, surgar, jam and cereal which I thought was such a lovely gesture. The villa was perfectly equipped with pool towels, hair dryers In rooms which was a bonus. The garden is Ideal for kids also as has grass area. We didn't need the pool heated for June and was just perfect. Walking distance to beaches and supermarket. Aldi a bit further away but if book taxi through Uber app to get there and back very cheap. If had young kids there was gates on the stairs at top and bottom which is great. They also had a great selection of books to read and music cds. Overly an enjoyable stay at Villis Hideaway.. Nothing really as very secure and safe if I was one thing The mattress were bit hard but some people may prefer this.

Fabulous Villa near the beach

Lovely villa with gorgeous garden and pool (well worth getting it heated), 4 very large en-suite bedrooms, good sized living room (tv with English channels), well equipped kitchen, welcome pack much appreciated. Restaurant and snack bar on nearest beach, 10 min walk to larger Galé beach with 3 restaurants. Two supermarkets within walking distance and new ALDI supermarket 5 mins drive away. Management team were extremely helpful. We all loved this villa and would love to return!!

Algarve Newbies

The villa is well presented and equipped; even better than the photographs represent it. Location is quiet - yet within 5 minutes of a beautiful beach. Plenty to do in the area - but you definitely need a vehicle. Overall would highly recommend

Top Unterkunft

Wir waren zu 8 in der Villa und hatten ausreichend Platz. Die Zimmer im 1. OG sind etwas besser ausgestattet. Ansonsten hab wir viel in der unmittelbaren Umgebung erleben können und die Nähe zur Küste genossen. Sehr zu Empfehlen.

Superb in every way

My party comprised of 8 persons from both Ireland and the UK (4 Adults and 4 Children aged 9 to 15) - the villa provides first class accommodation and facilities in a fantastic location which made for a wonderful holiday. We will certainly be returning again.

Villa Hideaway

Villa Hideaway is an excellent villa to stay.The property is as described spacious and clean with excellent gardens and pool.Local bars and restaurants are within walking distance and very good.The supermarket is 10-15 minutes walk and if you buy a lot I would suggest an car/taxi is nessary to transport back Some minor issues to consider are; Bose music system is not lightning connector or Wi if so take an adapt or if required.Check out is 10:00am , you can store luggage at the office however if it's aSaturday check out the office closes at 13:00 so you will need to remove your luggage. Coordinate your flights to make things easier, I didn't ! Overall I would have no hesitation in returning to Villa Hideaway

Very nice villa

Really nice villa in a great location. We had a fantastic time the villa was in good shape with all the things you may need on holiday. The heated pool with small children is a great bonus to have. We were two families with 2 children each, the villa is big enough to not get on each other's toes. The people we dealt with were all extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this to anyone wishing to have a top holiday in the Algarve.

Belle villa pour 8 personnes

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans la villa Hideaway qui est très agréable, bien équipée pour 8 personnes et très proche de la mer. Les chambres à l'étage sont spacieuses et la literie de bonne qualité. Juste 2 petites critiques: Une chambre d'enfants au rez de chaussée n'a pas de volets. Il faut une voiture pour faire les courses.
