Amazing Value!!! Host, great, so easy to deal with, early check in due to early flight times, late check out, supposed to check out at 10:00, flight out not until 19:55, not a problem with the host, left at 15:00 would not even hear of taking any extra money, just very good!!Size of place/rooms great value, all enjoyed, everything you need to self cater. 10 min walk to beach and Marina. Everything a high standard, if not just a bit dated? but that's the only thing i could mark down and that's being ultra critical!!!!! All pre-trip info really well communicated, Address, key safe, Messages and Queries answered almost straight away.Will go back!!!Thanks for a great week

Just back from 9 night stay at Villa. The villa is in a great location with respect to distance to the local area. A comfortable stroll to the marina, the old town and quarteria so plenty of options. Our hosts Carlos / Ana were very good with communication and information when we booked, prior to arriving and during our stay. We found the villa exactly as described. Its a traditional villa with everything you need. We found the villa to be clean throughout. As only 2 of us where staying there we used the downstairs space but upstairs has a great space with 2 bedrooms that you access one through the other and a large outside balcony.Downstairs space is roomy, comfortable and has a large kitchen with everything you need. Separate outside laundry room is also available as well as a bbq area. Outside area great with sun on the back and a great sized pool. Looking forward to going back soon!Thank you Carlos & Ana we had a great time

Lovely Villa

The villa was perfect for us (5 adults). The location was good, very quiet estate just a 20 minute walk to the harbour, perfect for eating out and an 8 minute drive to a fabulous beach. The pool is a good size and very well maintained. We used the BBQ one night, worked well. 5 min walk to the local supermarket. Communication with the owners was excellent.Would definitely consider rebooking.

We had a lovely stay at the Villa. It contained everything we needed, spotlessly clean and cleaner attended twice a week too.WiFi coverage was a bit patchy but spent most of our time in the large and quiet outside area. There is a good size pool and plenty of loungers with cushions for them which was a nice touch. There is sun around the pool all day, although the pool itself is in shade for quite a lot of the day.Great location, a genuine 15-20 minutes stroll to the Marina and surrounding area. Great choice of restaurants.Comms with the Villa owner were good and straight forward, we’d very happily stay again.Thank you Carlos and Ana.

Fantastic vacation period in Vilamoura

It is a very well equipped property with space inside the house and in its garden and pool area. It is great for relaxing or having fun with the children. It also has a good location, near the marina and in a nice neighborhood. As a plus, at the middle of the week the house was cleaned and the pool treated. Regarding the communication with the property manager, I must say that everything was quick, clear and smooth.
