Fantastic Property - Great Stay!

Brilliant property and management. The villa had everything we needed for our stay, fantastic amenities. I would advise anyone staying to consider a car hire if possible as with a lot of areas around here, it's quite hilly so a car would definitely make your stay a big easier to get around especially if you have kids or older family members. I'd highly recommend the stay and I would stay here again in the future. Thanks again for the great stay!

Lovely property. We had a hire car which helped as this is situated in a residential area a 7 minute drive from Old Town. Bolts were reasonable as an alternative. Great communication with Pedro the host. Would definitely recommend.

This was our second stay at this house, and it was just as wonderful as the first. The location is excellent — only a 10-minute walk to some bars and lovely restaurants, and about 20 minutes to two beautiful beaches and the coastal path. The house is very well furnished, with lots of home comforts that make it feel welcoming and relaxing. The highlight for us was the amazing pool and the sunbathing area, which gets sunshine all day long — perfect for lazy afternoons. Pedro, the host, was friendly, helpful, and very quick to respond whenever we had a question. Overall, a fantastic place to stay — we would definitely stay again!

Der Aufenthalt war super! Es gab nichts zu beanstanden. Das Haus war sehr sauber und ist komplett eingerichtet. Klimaanlagen funktionieren sehr gut. Pool war sauber und angenehm. Lage war ruhig gelegen, 4km von der Innenstadt. Auto empfehlenswert aber dank großem Uber Netz nicht zwingend nötig. Danke und großes Lob an Pedro, der immer erreichbar war. Wirklich 10/10 ! Wir kommen gerne wieder

Absolutely fantastic villa and host

We've just got back from a 12 night stay and we're so sad to be home. The villa was perfect, the images don't do it justice. It's much bigger than I thought. It was perfectly clean with plenty of towels and linen. The kitchen is very well stock with everything you need for cooking, we used the BBQ a few times and loved it! Plenty of seating inside and outside, there was six adults and 2 children and the size was great. The glass fence and lockable gate around the pool was great, it meant we could relax a bit more with the kids being outside if we'd locked the gates. The villa was spotless with plenty of storage space. We even found some inflatables for the pools and buckets and spades for the beach. Pedro is great, we booked just under a year in advance and anything we needed he catered for. He replied each time within hours and was very helpful in recommendations locally. I definitely recommend this villa and we'll definitely be back.

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette région et dans cette belle maison. Tout était parfait dans cette demeure très bien agencé, accueillante et chaleureuse. Les explications de Pedro nous ont été très utile pour ce séjour dommage que nous n’avons pas eu l’occasion de le rencontrer. Sûrement une prochaine fois. C’est un endroit que je ne peux que conseiller.

Perfect Vacation Home

Let me start by saying, Pedro was such a nice host, He truly wants his guests to have a good experience, he went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. His communication before and after we arrived was excellent, we were 6 adults that stayed the month of February. The kitchen is well stocked for all your cooking needs. We decided to go with the option for the pool to be heated, and used it daily, there we're lots of beach towels. The house is located in a very quiet neighborhood close to shopping and grocery. A car is recommended. There is a beautiful beach nearby. We had a fantastic stay; it was the perfect location for our family vacation. The Algarve area is beautiful, we would highly recommend Pedro's home to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks again Pedro for making our first trip to Portugal such a great experience.

An absolutely fantastic stay

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this villa! The property was exactly as described in the listing—spacious, beautifully maintained, and spotlessly clean. It truly exceeded our expectations. Pedro, the owner, was incredible—so helpful, friendly, and quick to respond to all our questions, making the whole experience stress-free. The villa was perfect for both families and groups of friends, offering plenty of space and a relaxing atmosphere. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway!
