The villa itself is very comfortable, and the inclusion of a games room and the traditional BBQ area really enhanced our stay. It is clearly a well-maintained property, and we found the booking and check-in process to be very smooth. Highly recommended for a relaxing break.

What a villa! This is almost perfect and we have already booked for next year!The villa exceeded our expectations. The accommodation it is extremely spacious and the added bonus of the lower level being self contained was great.

Perfect Home Away From Home

For a family of 16, this house was perfect. Lots of rooms if you needed some alone time. We didn't feel crowded at all. The location was excellent for getting to the beach or grocery store or restaurants. The pool and ping pong table got lots of use!

Perfect getaway

We stayed as a group of 15 friends June 2023. The Villa was perfect for everything we needed. The neighbourhood was quiet with a supermarket and restaurants nearby. The beach was a 4 minute walk away with some great restaurants. The villa itself was very spacious and we all had a wonderful break. Communication with Olivia has been exceptional throughout the booking process.

THANK YOU!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Morais. The description is accurate on the villa. Clean, well maintained, spacious and close to some restaurants and the beach. The supermarket Apolonia is within walking distance. Staff were always helpful and on hand. I recommend doing the boat tours operated by Algarve Vacation because is an amazing experience. Thank you.

Perfect Holiday destination with friends

Fantastic house with all you need! We were a group of 16 with children. The house is 5 mins walk to a supermarket and 5 mins walk to the beach. Perfect location. Also 15mins drive from Albeifura old town and 20mins from Zoomarine. Both great to do. And the Uber are fantastic and super quick out there! Would recommend heating the pool if you go out of season. Would totally rent again. Thank you

Lots of room

We were a family group of 15 - there was plenty of room for us all - having a 2nd kitchen was a nice extra as we cooked every night and ate on the long outside table. The pool area was lovely with plenty of beds for us all. It was great to have somebody to contact easily if there had been a problem. We had lots of fun with the pool table. The are is quiet but we found a couple of local bars to hang out after dinner for cocktails and drinks. Lovely beach - sea cold but you've got to expect that in Portugal. We got taxis into Albuferia. We paid for the company to pick us up at the airport and drop us off there again - it was well worth it

Large villa with rooms to spare !

Overall this was the perfect villa for us as 5 friends in their 60s. It was huge and we found we could have a bedroom and a bathroom each. The pool was lovely and the location so close to an excellent supermarket was brilliant. We did have a bit of a problem on the first day when the electric went off and after an electrician was sent out promptly to reset the fuse box - it happened again and we discovered it was a faulty kettle tripping the electrics. You need to keep the work surfaces clean as otherwise the ants take over ! One issue we felt could be improved was a lack of information in the villa about the house and the locality( maps , guides etc) We found the short cut to the beach on the last day !! If there had been a guest feedback book it would have given restaurant recommendations which are invaluable to new guests. Overall we enjoyed our holiday very much.

AMAZING RETREAT

This villa was the perfect location for our family celebration.!! After some hesitation to travel during this covid-crazy- time, we were very glad we did. This Villa provided the perfect retreat for all of us. The house could not be in a better location. At the end of a quite cul de sac, peaceful at night, but yet a 4 minute walk to the beach, a 5 minute walk to an Apolonia supermarket which has everything you could possibly need, and short walks to many amazing restaurants and cafes. A quick 15 min taxi to Albuferia and a 30 minute taxi to Portimao if you want to visit the caves or fish, which we did. The house is just as advertised, large enough for everyone to have their own space and yet great " hang-out" areas. Online communications before we arrived were very professional and helpful. We availed of the transportation through the onsite team and we would highly recommend this for both ease of travel and cost. We had NO issues with this home. It is clean and very safe and nestled away from the hustle.
