A lovely place where we stayed with my 85 year old father, so the low entry showers and minimum steps were important to us.Easy access to local supermarkets and shops, short walk to the strip but not too close to get much noise.A great place with lovely owners.The owners are very nice,
My wife and I as well as my son, his wife and their 2 year old stayed in this villa. It was very enjoyable and the hosts Helena and Alfredo were very nice and quick to respond to our needs. We will definitely stay here again next year.
Hosts were friendly and helpful. Villa was large, airy and clean. Outdoor area was great and the pool brilliant.
Close to beach, shops and nightlife but not noisy
Excellent location, all the amenities required, clean and plenty of space with a great layout. Only negatives are small showers, hard beds and in need of a little update. 😎

Was with great pleasure that we welcomed you in our villa and hope that someday you can come back
We had a very enjoyable stay at Villa 2 and everything went very well from pick up at airport to drop back on day of departure. Helena our host was there to meet us on arrival at the villa. The villa was very clean and an ideal location. Could not fault anything. Very nice clean villa and would recommend it to anyone wanting to visit this area of Portugal
We enjoyed a lovely relaxing holiday here. The villa has a super layout and very comfortable. We appreciated extra towels delivery halfway through our trip. The rooms lead out onto the pool area with sunbeds. Location was great as near restaurants and supermarkets. The villa is near Oura strip but is in a quiet street. Albufeira is within walking distance if you don’t mind the 30 minute walk. We had couple of day trips from there to Silves and Lagos
Myself, husband and adult daughter loved the very spacious and beautiful villa, it just had everything including the perfect private swimming pool, we especially loved the fact we were not overlooked and very quite considering we were close to all shops and restaurants, 1 tiny thing i would say is more towels would have saved us having to use
We enjoyed our stay at the Villa. The location af the villa was great with a great walking distance to the strip. There was a little miscommunication at the start about the safety deposit but it was quickly solved. The house was clean when we arrived. The beds were a bit hard but fine for a week. We did mis some of the chairs witch were seen on the pictures but apart from that the house was great.
We had a good stay for one week. Spacious with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Pool is not heated but weather was warm for us Canadians so the refreshing dip was nice and lovely to sit out. Updated finishes and large terrace for drying clothes and hanging out. Washer only. Beds were comfy after a long day of walking. We went out to eat for Supper so did not cook that much. Food was great especially to Memorias down the road (went 3x). New blow dryer needed but otherwise not one complaint!!

Perfect all round.
We had a really great time at this villa. Rooms were lovely and cool, although it was very hot outside we rarely needed the aircon. Supermarket in walking distance and the strip a 5 mins walk, taxi to old town only 5euros and the taxi rank is more or less at the top of the street. So the location is perfect. Met the owner on arrival who kindly let us in a little bit earlier than 4pm. We got the transfer to and from the airport that the owner recommended and that went smoothly too. I was impressed by the huge fridge that cooled everything very quickly. I can very highly recommend this villa. Its so hard to find this standard of villa in walking distance to everything, no need for a hire car.

Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall ok
Very spacious villa with nice outside pool and barbecue area in a calm neighbourhood of Albufeira close to all the main sites.
Villa and especially kitchen was somehow poorly equiped for a family to stay there. Also, some renovations is urgently required.
Host was responsive to provide additional stuff (new towels, kitchen material like wine glasses, sieve, cutting board etc.) within the next day.
Therefor overall ok. We would have expected more value for the money.

Dear sir
It was with great surprise that we received your rating.
When you arrived you really liked the house and were pleasantly surprised
In your comments you talk about the kitchen equipment, I don't know what else a holiday home kitchen can have, besides plates, pans, glasses, cutlery, various bowls, mugs... it is equipped with a dishwasher, two coffee machines, toaster, shredder, electric coffee maker, everything you can have in a kitchen. Also, a washing machine, used a lot by you, upon arrival...
While you were there, you commented that 2 kitchen towels for 3 days was insufficient, we provided five. You commented that you needed another salad drainer, we provided it.
You also commented on the lack of a decorative element, such as candles, something very necessary in a holiday home!!!
Regarding the value of the house, in high season, house for 6 with 3 bedrooms, three bathrooms, air conditioning in all rooms, private swimming pool, barbecue, intermediate cleaning with change of clothes, central and quiet location.... value Paid is inappropriate?
Regarding you, I can only highlight the lack of empathy and sympathy, despite the evaluation we gave you on the platform exceeding your performance, as we did not intend to offend you; because if we put a star rating, we would be indicating to the next villa owners that we do not recommend renting accommodation to you.
After several years of receiving hundreds of clients in our villa, with maximum reviews, either everyone is wrong, or else it is your family that is the only one who has a very peculiar and absolute truth.

Amazing villa, great people
My husband and I spent a week at the villa with our mothers. The villa itself is beautiful and felt like a real treat, much more luxurious than we could normally afford. Just a few minutes walk from the strip and all the amenities we needed for the duration of our stay.
Helena and Alfredo were both very accommodating. Before our arrival they responded to emails promptly, they helped us organise our transfers. As we were arriving a couple of days before the vila was available they offered to let us stay at another one of their apartments which was just a stones throw from the beach. On arrival Helena met us at 1.30am with a smile, not to mention water, fruit and some snacks to tide us over until the shops opened. They also came and collected us and took us to the vila when it was ready.
All in all we could not fault the vila and the support provided by Helena and Alfredo made the trip run smoothly. We had a great trip and if we find ourselves in Albufeira again we would definitely make this couple our first call. I would definitely recommend this to a friend.

Dear Kelly Davis,
We appreciated your very kind words about us and our Villa 2 We appreciate your stay with us which was a great pleasure and we say goodbye again, until one day.
Kind regards,
Helena and Alfredo
Albufeira est une station anglaise, je n'ai rien trouvé ou alors si peu du Portugal, la nourriture 'indien ou mexain ou steack) une seule fois j'ai eu de la morue. Le train touristique est tout sauf touristique. Si je dois résumer c'est pour les jeunes, les sorties, la plage et rien de culturel. La faute m'en revient car j'ai choisi le mauvais endroit. Bien à vous Catherine
Alfredo und Helena - Herzlichkeit trifft Hilfsbereitschaft
Wir haben zu sechst eine Woche in dem Haus von Alfredo und Helena verbracht.
Die hier eingestellten Bilder werden dem Haus nicht gerecht, wir waren positiv überrascht!
Die Küche und die darin befindlichen Geräte funktionierten einwandfrei und waren sauber.
Die Schlafzimmer und die Bäder waren ebenfalls sehr funktional (bequeme Betten, guter Wasserdruck) und sauber!
Das Highlight ist sicherlich die riesige Terrasse inkl. Des Tollen Pools!
Helena und Alfredo sind als Gastgeber großartig. Die Kommunikation war immer sehr freundlich , eher wie mit Freunden als mit fremden. Sie haben uns Tipps für Restaurants gegeben und uns sogar zwischendurch neue, saubere Handtücher gebracht. Wir hatten wegen des zu starken Windes einen defekten Sonnenschirm der umgehend von Alfredo ausgetauscht worden ist. Wir würden immer wieder in das Haus fahren und können diese Unterkunft uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen! An dieser Stelle noch einmal herzlichen Dank an Helena und Alfredo! Ihr seid die besten ❤️
We enjoyed our time in the villa and it is in a good location, close to many restaurants. It’s well laid out and had everything we need. It was tired over and in need of painting and some new furniture. Met Helena on arrival who was very friendly and helpful.
